Phylogeny, Resistome, and Virulome of Escherichia coli Causing Biliary Tract Infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Escherichia coli is the most frequent Gram-negative bacilli involved in intra-abdominal infections. However, despite high mortality rates associated with biliary tract infections due to E. coli, there is no study focusing on this pathogen. In this study,

A Population-Based Surveillance Study of Shared Genotypes of Escherichia coli Isolates from Retail Meat and Suspected Cases of Urinary Tract Infections. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
There is increasing evidence that retail food may serve as a source of Escherichia coli that causes community-acquired urinary tract infections, but the impact of this source in a community is not known. We conducted a prospective, population-based study

Gut Colonization by ESBL-Producing Escherichia coli in Dogs Is Associated with a Distinct Microbiome and Resistome Composition

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
The gut microbiome of humans and animals acts as a reservoir of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC). Dogs are known for having a high prevalence of ESBL-EC in their gut microbiota, although their ESBL-EC carrier status ...

Biotechnological applications of functional metagenomics in the food and pharmaceutical industries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
peer-reviewedMicroorganisms are found throughout nature, thriving in a vast range of environmental conditions. The majority of them are unculturable or difficult to culture by traditional methods.

Diminution of the gut resistome after a gut microbiota-targeted dietary intervention in obese children [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractThe gut microbiome represents an important reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Effective methods are urgently needed for managing the gut resistome to fight against the antibiotic resistance threat. In this study, we show that a gut microbiota-targeted dietary intervention, which shifts the dominant fermentation of gut bacteria ...

Machine Learning Leveraging Genomes from Metagenomes Identifies Influential Antibiotic Resistance Genes in the Infant Gut Microbiome

open access: yesmSystems, 2018
Antibiotic resistance in pathogens is extensively studied, and yet little is known about how antibiotic resistance genes of typical gut bacteria influence microbiome dynamics.

Metagenome-assembled genomes and gene catalog from the chicken gut microbiome aid in deciphering antibiotic resistomes

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Feng et al. include genome recovery and data analysis of large number of chicken gut metagenomic datasets which significantly expands the reference genomes available from the chicken gut microbial communities, and catalog the genes prevalent in the gut ...

Dynamic associations between the respiratory tract and gut antibiotic resistome of patients with COVID-19 and its prediction power for disease severity

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2023
The antibiotic resistome is the collection of all antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) present in an individual. Whether an individual’s susceptibility to infection and the eventual severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is influenced by their ...

The fecal resistome of dairy cattle is associated with diet during nursing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Antimicrobial resistance is a global public health concern, and livestock play a significant role in selecting for resistance and maintaining such reservoirs.

Vancomycin gene selection in the microbiome of urban Rattus norvegicus from hospital environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background and objectives: Widespread use of antibiotics has resulted in selection pressure on genes that make bacteria non-responsive to antibiotics. These antibiotic-resistant bacteria are currently a major threat to global health.
