Corynebacterium striatum: an emerging respiratory pathogen

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2018
Introduction: Corynebacterium spp. are primarily considered normal flora and dismissed when isolated from clinical specimens. In recent years, Corynebacterium striatum has emerged as a multi-drug resistant human pathogen which can cause nosocomial ...

Corynebacterium Species Inhibit Streptococcus pneumoniae Colonization and Infection of the Mouse Airway

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The stability and composition of the airway microbiome is an important determinant of respiratory health. Some airway bacteria are considered to be beneficial due to their potential to impede the acquisition and persistence of opportunistic bacterial ...

Current Evidence for Corynebacterium on the Ocular Surface

Microorganisms, 2021
Corynebacterium species are commonly found in the conjunctiva of healthy adults and are recognized as non-pathogenic bacteria. In recent years, however, Corynebacterium species have been reported to be potentially pathogenic in various tissues.

Genome mining identifies a diversity of natural product biosynthetic capacity in human respiratory Corynebacterium strains [PDF]

mSphere
Corynebacterium species, integral to the healthy human upper respiratory tract (URT) microbiota, remain underexplored in microbial genomics for their potential to promote respiratory health and exclude pathobionts.

Staphylococcus aureus shifts towards commensalism in response to Corynebacterium species

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Staphylococcus aureus–human interactions result in a continuum of outcomes from commensalism to pathogenesis. S. aureus is a clinically important pathogen that asymptomatically colonizes ~25% of humans as a member of the nostril and skin microbiota ...

Insight of Genus Corynebacterium: Ascertaining the Role of Pathogenic and Non-pathogenic Species

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
This review gathers recent information about genomic and transcriptomic studies in the Corynebacterium genus, exploring, for example, prediction of pathogenicity islands and stress response in different pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. In addition,
