Enterobacter Species: Opportunistic Human and Plant Pathogens With Plant‐Beneficial Traits
The pathogen profile on Enterobacter species synthesises current knowledge on host range, disease symptoms, plant‐beneficial traits and compares genomic features within the genus. ABSTRACT Enterobacter species occur across diverse habitats and are best known for causing opportunistic and nosocomial infections in humans.

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 ...

Description of two fatal cases of melioidosis in Mexican children with acute pneumonia: case report
Background Melioidosis is an infectious disease caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei. In Mexico, the disease is rarely diagnosed in humans and there is no evidence of simultaneous environmental isolation of the pathogen.

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.

Tracking melioidosis in Iran: Utilizing abattoir‐based surveillance as a One Health approach
Background Burkholderia pseudomallei, an environmental saprophyte bacterium, causes melioidosis in humans and animals. It was first discovered in Iran between 1967 and 1976 in small ruminants, equines, environments and humans.

Double‐Duty Drugs: Repositioning Antipsychotics to Combat Bacterial Infections
Antipsychotics can exert antibacterial effects via several mechanisms: (1, 2) Due to their amphiphilic and cationic characteristics, antipsychotics can negatively affect the integrity of the plasma membrane by disrupting its structure and electrochemical potential.

Challenge Specific Modulation of Responses to Adjuvant‐Induced Innate Immune Memory
We utilised a commercially available adjuvant formulation to study the induction, maintenance, and consequences of innate immune memory. Using functional assays on bone marrow‐derived innate cells, extensive transcriptomic analysis of haematopoietic progenitors, and challenge models of spirochetal infection, nonspecific inflammation, and model antigen ...

A comprehensive glycosylation study of diversely protected and activated d‐idopyranosyl and 6‐deoxy‐d‐ido‐heptopyranosyl donors using intra‐ and intermolecular coupling strategies is reported. Intramolecular aglycon delivery afforded 1,2‐cis‐β‐idopyranosides, while intermolecular glycosylation yielded chromatographically separable α‐ and β‐linked ...
