Relationship Between Fecal Bile Acid Profile and Intestinal Microbiota in Patients With Chronic Radiation Enteritis

open access: yesJournal of Digestive Diseases, EarlyView.
Patients with chronic radiation enteritis (CRE) demonstrate dysregulated bile acid (BA) metabolism, characterized by an increased proportion of primary BAs and a decreased proportion of secondary BAs. Moreover, the diversity of the intestinal microbiota is significantly reduced in individuals with CRE, and there is a bidirectional interaction between ...

Host Transcriptomics and Culture‐Independent Testing for the Management of Febrile Neutropenia: Data From an Observational Study Conducted in a Bone Marrow Transplant Unit

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Managing febrile neutropenia is challenging due to the limited sensitivity of blood culture (BC) and the lack of tools differentiating infectious from non‐infectious fever. T2 magnetic resonance (T2MR) is a culture‐independent system detecting bacteria (T2Bacteria) and yeasts (T2Candida); SeptiCyte RAPID is a host response assay ...

Activity of Ceftaroline against Enterococcus faecium PBP5 [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2013
ABSTRACT The opportunistic human pathogen Enterococcus faecium overproduces the low-affinity PBP5. In clinical strains, mutations in PBP5 further reduce its acylation rate by β-lactams. Previous studies have reported that ceftaroline had poor inhibitory activity against β-lactam-resistant E ...

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.

Incidence of virulence determinants in clinical Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium isolates collected in Bulgaria

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2016
Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of some virulence genes among 510 clinical Enterococcus spp. isolates and to assess the association of those genes with the species, infection site, and patient group (inpatients/outpatients).
