Frequent Occurrence of Mixed Enterocytozoon bieneusi Infections in Humans [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Enterocytozoon bieneusi (phylum Microsporidia ) is a human pathogen with a broad host range. Following the sequencing of 3.8 Mb of the estimated 6-Mb E. bieneusi genome, simple sequence repeats (micro- and minisatellites) were identified. Sequencing of four such

Tubulointerstitial Nephritis Post‐Microsporidium Infection in a Combined Liver–Kidney Transplanted Patient: A Case Report

Nephrology, Volume 30, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Microsporidia are emerging opportunistic pathogens in immunosuppressed individuals, including solid organ transplant recipients. We present a case of tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) caused by Microsporidia infection in a 55‐year‐old male who underwent combined liver–kidney transplantation (CLKT) for metabolic‐associated fatty liver disease ...

Potential Risks and Prevention Strategies of Common Diseases and Intestinal Opportunistic Pathogenic Bacteria in Bullfrog (Aquarana catesbeiana) Culture: A Review

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bullfrogs (Aquarana catesbeiana) are an important aquaculture species worldwide. However, diseases have caused significant losses to the bullfrog industry. Given the crucial role of the intestinal microbiota (IM) in bullfrog growth, nutrition, immunity, and health, as well as the potential of probiotics and Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) to regulate ...
