Molecular Investigations of PenA-mediated β-lactam Resistance in Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]
Burkholderia pseudomallei is the etiological agent of melioidosis. Because of the bacterium’s intrinsic resistance and propensity to establish latent infections, melioidosis therapy is complicated and prolonged. Newer generation b-lactams, specifically

Drug Design and Delivery for Intracellular Bacteria: Emerging Paradigms
ABSTRACT Intracellular bacteria exploit host cell niches, such as lysosomes, phagosomes, cytosol, entire cells, and even erythrocytes, to evade immune clearance and escape conventional antibiotics. These environments pose numerous therapeutic challenges, including crossing host cell membranes, navigating endosomal trafficking, tolerating acidic and ...

Burkholderia mallei cellular interactions in a respiratory cell model [PDF]
Burkholderia mallei is a facultative intracellular pathogen that survives and replicates in phagocytic cell lines. The bacterial burden recovered from naïve BALB/c mice infected by intranasal delivery indicated that B. mallei persists in the lower respiratory system. To address whether B.

Development of novel O-polysaccharide based glycoconjugates for immunization against glanders
Burkholderia mallei, the etiologic agent of glanders, causes severe disease in humans and animals and is a potential agent of biological warfare and terrorism. Diagnosis and treatment of glanders can be challenging, and in the absence of chemotherapeutic

Comparison of the in vitro and in vivo susceptibilities of Burkholderia mallei to Ceftazidime and Levofloxacin [PDF]
Background Burkholderia mallei is a zoonotic Gram negative bacterium which primarily infects solipeds but can cause lethal disease in humans if left untreated.

Iron Acquisition Mechanisms and Their Role in the Virulence of Burkholderia Species [PDF]
Burkholderia is a genus within the β-Proteobacteriaceae that contains at least 90 validly named species which can be found in a diverse range of environments. A number of pathogenic species occur within the genus.

Genetic and phenotypic diversity in Burkholderia: contributions by prophage and phage-like elements [PDF]
Background Burkholderia species exhibit enormous phenotypic diversity, ranging from the nonpathogenic, soil- and water-inhabiting Burkholderia thailandensis to the virulent, host-adapted mammalian pathogen B. mallei.
