Metabolomic Profiling of Plasma from Melioidosis Patients Using UHPLC-QTOF MS Reveals Novel Biomarkers for Diagnosis [PDF]
© 2016 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.To identify potential biomarkers for improving diagnosis of melioidosis, we compared plasma metabolome profiles of melioidosis patients compared to patients with other bacteremia and controls ...

BIOFILMS OF PATHOGENIC BURKHOLDERIA AND THEIR ROLE IN RESISTANCE TO ANTIBIOTICS
The review contains the current knowledge on the main issues of Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia mallei biofilm formation. The role ofknown structural elements of Burkholderia cells (flagella, type IV pili, LPS), as well as autotransporter ...

We describe the CD9 interactome in epithelial cells for the first time. The interactome is diverse and dynamic and changes dependent on infection with specific bacteria. We validate these data by showing functional interaction between CD9 with CD44 or CD147. We therefore demonstrate that CD9 is a universal organiser of bacterial adhesion platforms able

Molecular phylogeny of Burkholderia pseudomallei
In terms of population structure, the species Burkholderia pseudomallei contains both clonal and non-clonal elements. By indexing variation in rRNA loci using the restriction endonuclease BamHI, we found that two ribotypes (types 1 and 3) are predominant in nature. Ribotype 3 is prevalent in Asian countries while ribotype 1 is more widespread.

Inactivation of bpsl1039-1040 ATP-binding cassette transporter reduces intracellular survival in macrophages, biofilm formation and virulence in the murine model of Burkholderia pseudomallei infection. [PDF]
Burkholderia pseudomallei, a gram-negative intracellular bacillus, is the causative agent of a tropical infectious disease called melioidosis. Bacterial ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters import and export a variety of molecules across bacterial ...

ABSTRACT Amoebiasis, a gastrointestinal infection caused by Entamoeba histolytica, is the third leading cause of mortality worldwide among parasitic infections with over 100,000 deaths annually. Apart from dysentery, it can manifest as extraintestinal disease, most commonly liver abscess, and rarely pulmonary, cardiac, and brain involvement.

PCR-based identification of Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]
DNA amplification techniques are being used increasingly in clinical laboratories to confirm the identity of medically important bacteria. A PCR-based identification method has been in use in our centre for 10 years for Burkholderia pseudomallei and was used to confirm the identity of bacteria isolated from cases of melioidosis in Ceará since 2003 ...

Comparison of TaqMan PCR assays for detection of the melioidosis agent Burkholderia pseudomallei in clinical specimens [PDF]
Melioidosis is an emerging infectious disease caused by the soil bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. In diagnostic and forensic settings, molecular detection assays need not only high sensitivity with low limits of detection but also high specificity ...

Melioidosis: Case reports of confirmed Burkholderia pseudomallei in Saudi Arabia
Melioidosis is an infectious disease of tropical climates. The disease is caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. Most cases are diagnosed in southeast Asia and northern Australia. Some imported cases diagnosed in returning tourists, soldiers,
