Enterococcus faecalis Extracellular Vesicles Deliver the Bacterial GTPase Obg to Hijack mTOR Signalling in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
E. faecalis is enriched in HCC tissue and can promote liver tumourigenesis by activating mTOR signalling pathway. Obg derived from E. faecalis extracellular vesicles (EVs) is a GTPase physically interacts with mTOR, and acts as an interkingdom activator of mTOR. EF‐Obg expression level in HCC tissue correlates with poor prognosis in HCC patients.

Gut Microbiota as a Key Modulator in the Pathophysiology of Sepsis: SURVEIL Project

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Longitudinal profiling of 132 hospitalized patients reveals that age, colonization status, and sepsis interact to shape gut microbiota diversity and composition. Sepsis is associated with reduced alpha diversity, beta‐diversity shifts, functional predictions (methanogenesis, nitrate/sulfate respiration), and partial MDR overlap with bloodstream ...

When First‐Line Therapies Fail: Surgical Site Infections and the Declining Antimicrobial Utility in a Resource‐Limited Nation

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
In Belize, a 7‐year nationwide study reveals a sharp rise in antimicrobial resistance in surgical infections. ESBL‐producing bacteria more than doubled to > 45%, with critical treatment gaps and geographic hotspots identified. Sentinel pan‐drug‐resistant cases and a correlation between antibiotic use and resistance underscore the urgent need for ...

Comprehensive analysis of bacteriocins produced by clinical enterococcal isolates and their antibacterial activity against Enterococci including VRE

Scientific Reports
It is well-known that Enterococcus species produce bacteriocins that have antibacterial activity. However, a comprehensive analysis of the bacteriocin distribution among Enterococcus strains has not been conducted.

Increasing prevalence of bacteriocin carriage in a six-year hospital cohort of E. faecium

Abstract Vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE) are important pathogens in hospitalized patients, however, the factors involved in VRE colonization of hospitalized patients are not well characterized. Bacteriocins provide a competitive advantage to enterococci in experimental models of colonization, but little is ...

Wastewater‐Based Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance and Bacterial Communities in Urban and Rural Areas in the Province of Trento (Italy)

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Wastewater from urban and rural areas was analyzed to investigate antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria and resistance genes. ESBL‐Escherichia coli and genes coding for clinically relevant resistances, namely, those to macrolides, carbapenems, and vancomycin, were higher in urban than in rural areas.

Hospital‐Associated Antimicrobial Resistant Bacteria on 95 Mobile Phones: An International Metagenomic “Phonome” Analysis

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
On average, phones harbored 3.62 of the top 10 killers and 2.49 ESKAPE organisms. In total, 667 VFGs (8621 Hits) and 262 ARGs (2475 Hits) were identified on 95 mobile phones. Mobile phones serve as a platform for horizontal gene transfer and AMR development.
