Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Iron is essential for life, yet excessive levels can quickly lead to cellular damage via oxidative stress, underscoring the need for global regulators of iron and heme homeostasis. In this study, we present a genome‐wide analysis of the binding patterns of DtxR and HrrA in Corynebacterium glutamicum.

Population genomics and antimicrobial resistance in Corynebacterium diphtheriae [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundCorynebacterium diphtheriae, the agent of diphtheria, is a genetically diverse bacterial species. Although antimicrobial resistance has emerged against several drugs including first-line penicillin, the genomic determinants and population dynamics of resistance are largely unknown for this neglected human pathogen.MethodsHere, we ...

Microbiome and Metaproteome of Craniofacial Implant Regions in Health and Disease
ABSTRACT Background Craniofacial defects from cancer surgery led to functional, aesthetic, and psychological challenges. Rehabilitation with craniofacial implants addresses these issues by improving prosthesis retention through osseointegration and providing predictable cosmetic results. However, maintaining a healthy transcutaneous region is essential

Comparative genomic analyses reveal a lack of a substantial signature of host adaptation in Rhodococcus equi (‘Prescottella equi’) [PDF]
Rhodococcus equi (‘Prescottella equi’) is a pathogenic actinomycete primarily infecting horses but has emerged as an opportunistic human pathogen. We have sequenced the genome of the type strain of this species, R.

Severe Pneumonia Caused by Toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans Infection, Japan
Corynebacterium ulcerans infection was recently recognized as a zoonosis. We present 2 cases of severe pneumonia complicated by diffuse pseudomembrane formation on the bronchus caused by C. ulcerans–producing diphtheria toxin.

The Different Types of Corynebacterium diphtheria [PDF]
In 1890 Klein described two types of colony of the diphtheria bacillus on gelatin; one smooth and circular, the other radiating and resembling a daisy. Cowan (1927) observed two types of colony, but one of the types was thought to be due to roughening. Parker (1928) observed three types of colony, some of which were considered ordinary rough variants.

Trends in resource utilization for new‐onset psychosis hospitalizations at children's hospitals
Abstract Background Children with new‐onset psychosis often require hospitalization for medical evaluation. Objectives The goal of this study was to assess variations in the management of children with new‐onset psychosis and characterize trends in resource utilization.

Possible human-to-human transmission of toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans [PDF]
Toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans is an emerging cause of diphtheria. In contrast to the classical diphtheria pathogen C. diphtheriae, human-to-human transmission of this primarily zoonotic pathogen has not been clearly documented.
