The Spirochete Brachyspira pilosicoli, Enteric Pathogen of Animals and Humans. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Microbiol Rev, 2018
SUMMARYBrachyspira pilosicoliis a slow-growing anaerobic spirochete that colonizes the large intestine. Colonization occurs commonly in pigs and adult chickens, causing colitis/typhlitis, diarrhea, poor growth rates, and reduced production. Colonization of humans also is common in some populations (individuals living in village and peri-urban settings ...

A Dangerous Prey Fish? <i>Brachyspira</i>-Rich Gastrointestinal Microbiota in Pompano Dolphinfish From Neritic and Deep Waters of the South China Sea. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
This study reveals an unexpectedly simplified, Brachyspira‐dominated gastrointestinal microbiota in pompano dolphinfish from both neritic and deep‐sea habitats of the South China Sea. Environmental DNA and functional analyses suggest these fish may acquire potential pathogens in anthropogenically influenced coastal waters and transport them offshore ...

The Role of Short Journey Transportation in the Spreading of Swine Pathogens and Antimicrobial-Resistant Bacteria. [PDF]

open access: yesTransbound Emerg Dis
The transport of live pigs poses a risk to on‐farm biosecurity. Trucks can carry pathogens with significant economic and health impacts, including antimicrobial‐resistant (AMR) bacteria. This study aimed to investigate the microbiological contamination of trucks before and after loading, focusing on AMR bacteria and other major pathogens transmissible ...

Attraction of Brachyspira pilosicoli to mucin [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 2010
The anaerobic intestinal spirochaete Brachyspira pilosicoli colonizes the large intestine of various species, including humans. In the colon this spirochaete can penetrate the overlying mucus layer, attach by one cell end to the underlying enterocytes, and initiate localized colitis and diarrhoea.

Development of a real-time PCR for identification of brachyspira species in human colonic biopsies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Brachyspira species are fastidious anaerobic microorganisms, that infect the colon of various animals. The genus contains both important pathogens of livestock as well as commensals. Two species are known to infect humans: B.

Detection of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, Lawsonia intracellularis and Brachyspira pilosicoli in feral pigs [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Microbiology, 2009
Feral pigs are recognized as being a potential reservoir of pathogenic microorganisms that can infect domestic pigs and other species. The aim of this study was to investigate whether feral pigs in Western Australia were colonized by the pathogenic enteric bacteria Lawsonia intracellularis, Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and/or Brachyspira pilosicoli.

Expert opinion on the identification, risk assessment, and mitigation of microorganisms and parasites relevant to xenotransplantation products from pigs

open access: yesXenotransplantation, Volume 30, Issue 5, September/October 2023., 2023
Abstract Xenotransplantation has the potential to address shortages of organs available for clinical transplantation, but concerns exist regarding potential risks posed by porcine microorganisms and parasites (MP) to the health of human recipients. In this study, a risk‐based framework was developed, and expert opinion was elicited to evaluate porcine ...

Identificação de Brachyspira spp. em cecos de frangos de corte por meio de histologia e ensaios diagnósticos in situ

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2021
O gênero Brachyspira corresponde ao grupo de bactérias anteriormente classificadas no gênero Serpulina e inclui várias espiroquetas intestinais comensais e patogênicas que afetam suínos, aves e outras espécies animais, incluindo humanos. Em aves, algumas

The comparison of the intensity of human intestinal spirochetes between Brachyspira pilosicoli and Brachyspira aalborgi infections. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Biochem Nutr, 2019
The agglutination titers of Brachyspira pilosicoli (B. pilosicoli) and Brachyspira aalborgi (B. aalborgi) were examined in colitis patients with human intestinal spirochetes. Among three cases of colitis patients, the titer of B. pilosicoli was extremely high in two cases while the titer of B. aalborgi was extremely high in one case.
