The Tol-Pal System of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Is Responsible for Optimal Internalization Into and Aggregation Within Bladder Epithelial Cells, Colonization of the Urinary Tract of Mice, and Bacterial Motility

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Urinary tracts infection (UTI) caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a common infectious disease. With the shortage of new antimicrobial agents, the increase in UPEC resistance to commonly used drugs, such as fluoroquinolones and β-lactams ...

Genomic dissection of nosocomial multiclonal-outbreak by carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains in a tertiary children’s hospital in Japan

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
Objective: Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) is an important antimicrobial-resistant bacterial pathogen. We observed an increase in the detection rate of CRPA isolates at a tertiary children’s hospital in Japan.

Major bacterial isolate and antibiotic resistance from routine clinical samples in Southern Ethiopia

Scientific Reports, 2021
Currently, antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections are a challenge for the health care system. Although physicians demand timely drug resistance data to guide empirical treatment, local data is rather scarce. Hence, this study performed a retrospective

Eradication Therapy - Recent Trend in Research [PDF]

The Korean Journal of Helicobacter and Upper Gastrointestinal Research, 2020
It is well known that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) can cause peptic ulcer, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, and ultimately, gastric cancer. Various studies have proven that H.

Fifty years of chicken-source Salmonella in China: Evolutionary shifts in epidemiology, antimicrobial resistance, and genomic lineages

Poultry Science
Salmonella, as a profound foodborne zoonotic pathogen, not only causes acute and chronic disorders in poultry but can also be transmitted to humans through the food chain, posing a serious threat to public health security.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Commensal Flora of Pig Farmers

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
We assessed the quantitative contribution of pig farming to antimicrobial resistance in the commensal flora of pig farmers by comparing 113 healthy pig farmers from the major French porcine production areas to 113 nonfarmers, each matched for sex, age ...

In Silico Screen Identifies a New Family of Agonists for the Bacterial Mechanosensitive Channel MscL

Antibiotics, 2022
MscL is a highly conserved mechanosensitive channel found in the majority of bacterial species, including pathogens. It functions as a biological emergency release valve, jettisoning solutes from the cytoplasm upon acute hypoosmotic stress.

Whole-genome sequencing targets drug-resistant bacterial infections [PDF]

Human Genomics, 2015
During the past two decades, the technological progress of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) had changed the fields of Environmental Microbiology and Biotechnology, and, currently, is changing the underlying principles, approaches, and fundamentals of Public Health, Epidemiology, Health Economics, and national productivity.

Antimicrobial peptides for combating drug-resistant bacterial infections

Drug Resistance Updates, 2023
The problem of drug resistance due to long-term use of antibiotics has been a concern for years. As this problem grows worse, infections caused by multiple bacteria are expanding rapidly and are extremely detrimental to human health. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a good alternative to current antimicrobials with potent antimicrobial activity and ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
