Risk factors associated with Streptococcus suis cases on pig farms in Spain
Veterinary Record, Volume 193, Issue 5, 9/16 September 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Streptococcus suis can cause meningitis, polyarthritis and acute death in piglets. However, the risk factors associated with S. suis infection remain incompletely understood. Therefore, a longitudinal study was carried out, in which six batches from two Spanish pig farms with S.

The regulation of bacterial two‐partner secretion systems
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 120, Issue 2, Page 159-177, August 2023., 2023 Two‐partner secretion (TPS) systems play critical roles in bacterial pathogenesis by allowing the secretion of effector proteins such as cytolysins and adhesins. Here, we explore the diverse regulatory mechanisms that govern TPS system expression, including environmental stimuli, two‐component systems, quorum sensing, and global regulators, providing ...

Haemophilus parasuis: infection, immunity and enrofloxacin
Veterinary Research, 2015 Haemophilus parasuis is an early colonizer of the porcine upper respiratory tract and is the etiological agent of Glasser's disease. The factors responsible for H. parasuis colonization and systemic infection are not yet well understood, while prevention and control of Glasser's disease continues to be challenging.

Genome sequence of Haemophilus parasuis strain 29755 [PDF]
Standards in Genomic Sciences, 2011 Haemophilus parasuis is a member of the family Pasteurellaceae and is the etiologic agent of Glässer's disease in pigs, a systemic syndrome associated with only a subset of isolates. The genetic basis for virulence and systemic spread of particular H. parasuis isolates is currently unknown. Strain 29755 is an invasive isolate that has long been used in
