Activation Of The Pyrin Inflammasome By Intracellular Burkholderia Cenocepacia [PDF]

A35. RECENT ADVANCES IN PHAGOCYTE BIOLOGY, 2012
Abstract Burkholderia cenocepacia is an opportunistic pathogen that causes chronic infection and induces progressive respiratory inflammation in cystic fibrosis patients. Recognition of bacteria by mononuclear cells generally results in the activation of caspase-1 and processing of IL-1β, a major proinflammatory cytokine.

The exopolysaccharide gene cluster Bcam1330-Bcam1341 is involved in Burkholderia cenocepacia biofilm formation, and its expression is regulated by c-di-GMP and Bcam1349 [PDF]

, 2013
In Burkholderia cenocepacia, the second messenger cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) has previously been shown to positively regulate biofilm formation and the expression of cellulose and type-I fimbriae genes through binding to the ...

Burkholderia cenocepacia Keratitis With Exogenous Endopthalmitis: A Complex Combination. [PDF]

Cureus
In this report, we present a case of Burkholderia cenocepacia (B. cenocepacia)keratitis with exogenous endophthalmitis in a post-vitrectomy eye. The patient was a 68-year-old man with a history of treated corneal laceration and endophthalmitis who presented with acute pain, redness, and lid swelling affecting the left eye following working at a palm ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Chlorhexidine Tolerance in Burkholderia cenocepacia Biofilms [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2011
ABSTRACT The high tolerance of biofilm-grown Burkholderia cepacia complex bacteria against antimicrobial agents presents considerable problems for the treatment of infected cystic fibrosis patients and the implementation of infection control guidelines.

Multilocus sequence typing scheme that provides both species and strain differentiation for the Burkholderia cepacia complex [PDF]

, 2005
A single multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme was developed for precise characterization of the opportunistic pathogens of Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), a group composed of at least nine closely related species.

Complete Genome Sequence of Burkholderia cenocepacia Phage Magia

Microbiology Resource Announcements, 2021
Burkholderia cenocepacia is a Gram-negative bacterium that is implicated in respiratory infections. The 44,942-bp genome of Magia, a phage infecting B. cenocepacia , does not appear to have strong overall similarity to other known phages.

A unique regulator contributes to quorum sensing and virulence in Burkholderia cenocepacia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Burkholderia cenocepacia causes chronic and life-threatening respiratory infections in immunocompromized people. The B. cenocepacia N-acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL)-dependent quorum sensing system relies on the production of AHLs by the synthases CepI and
