New insights into the interactions between the gut microbiota and the inflammatory response to ulcerative colitis in a mouse model of dextran sodium sulfate and possible mechanisms of action for treatment with PE&AFWE

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 83-97, April 2024.
Changes in gut microbiota before and after treatment. Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a heterogeneous state of chronic intestinal inflammation. Intestinal innate immunity, including innate immune cells, defends against pathogens and excessive entry of gut microbiota ...

First Report of Chlamydia abortus in Farmed Fur Animals

BioMed Research International, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Chlamydia (C.) abortus, a globally distributed obligate intracellular bacterium, has attracted increasing interest according to its veterinary importance and zoonotic nature. C. abortus can infect a variety of animals and cause foetal loss in livestock resulting in economic loss.

Identification and characterization of a type III secretion system in Chlamydophila psittaci [PDF]

, 2008
Chlamydiaceae are obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacteria replicating in vacuoles inside eukaryotic cells. It has been proven that most of them possess a type III secretion system (T3SS) allowing them to transfer effector molecules in the host cell.

Host avian species and environmental conditions influence the microbial ecology of brood parasitic brown‐headed cowbird nestlings: What rules the roost?

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 6, March 2024.
Abstract The role of species interactions, as well as genetic and environmental factors, all likely contribute to the composition and structure of the gut microbiome; however, disentangling these independent factors under field conditions represents a challenge for a functional understanding of gut microbial ecology.

Metagenomic Analysis of Fish-Associated Ca. Parilichlamydiaceae Reveals Striking Metabolic Similarities to the Terrestrial Chlamydiaceae

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2018
Chlamydiae are an example of obligate intracellular bacteria that possess highly reduced, compact genomes (1.0–3.5 Mbp), reflective of their abilities to sequester many essential nutrients from the host that they no longer need to synthesize themselves ...

Scientific and technical assistance concerning the survival, establishment and spread of Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) in the EU

EFSA Journal, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2017., 2017
Abstract A new fungus, Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal), was identified in wild populations of salamanders in the Netherlands and Belgium, and in kept salamander populations in Germany and the United Kingdom. EFSA assessed the potential of Bsal to affect the health of wild and kept salamanders in the EU, the effectiveness and feasibility of a ...

Zoonotic Chlamydiae as rare causes of severe pneumonia

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2022
Zoonotic species of the Chlamydiaceae family should be considered as rare pathogenic agents of severe atypical pneumonia. A fatal case of a severe pneumonia due to Chlamydia psittaci was traced back to pet birds, and pneumonia in a pregnant woman was ...

Draft Genome Sequence and Complete Plasmid Sequence of Acinetobacter lwoffii F78, an Isolate with Strong Allergy-Protective Properties [PDF]

, 2016
The hygiene hypothesis states that the tremendous increase in atopic diseases correlates significantly with less contact to microbes in childhood. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Acinetobacter lwoffii F78, a rural cowshed isolate with strong
