Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

Characterization of CD8 T cell responses in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this project was to compare the breadth and magnitude of CFP10 and ESAT6-specific CD8 T cell responses in individuals with latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection (LTBI) and active TB disease, and further define MTB-specific CD8 T ...

Experimental infection of the pig with Mycobacterium ulcerans: a novel model for studying the pathogenesis of Buruli ulcer disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND Buruli ulcer (BU) is a slowly progressing, necrotising disease of the skin caused by infection with Mycobacterium ulcerans. Non-ulcerative manifestations are nodules, plaques and oedema, which may progress to ulceration of large parts of ...

Development of a temperature-switch PCR-based SNP typing method for Mycobacterium ulcerans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Mycobacterium ulcerans (M. ulcerans), the causative agent of the devastating skin disease Buruli ulcer (BU), is characterized by an extremely low level of genetic diversity.

Homocitrullinated Peptides Drive Pro‐Inflammatory T Cell Responses in a Humanized Mouse Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Anti‐homocitrullinated protein/peptide antibodies are specific to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and predictive of worse prognosis, suggesting a pathogenic role for autoreactivity to homocitrullinated peptides (HomoCitP). However, T cell responses to HomoCitP remain largely unexplored.

Confirmation of the presence of Mycobacterium-tuberculosis complex-specific DNA in three archaeological specimens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This journal published the first reported identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTE) DNA in ancient human remains but CONCERNS were raised about the article two years after publication.

Increased Plasma Microbial tDR‐1 in At‐Risk Individuals Is Associated With Decreased Conversion to Clinical Rheumatoid Arthritis and Reduces an In Vitro Macrophage Type 1 Interferon Response

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Microbial small RNAs can regulate human genes. Higher plasma concentrations of microbial transfer RNA (tRNA)‐derived RNA‐1 (tDR‐1) were previously associated with lower rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity. This study examined whether tDR‐1 concentrations differ in anticyclic citrullinated peptide‐3 positive (CCP3+) at‐risk individuals (

Comparative Diagnostic Performance of Three Commercial Real‐Time PCR Assays for the Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex in Bronchial Washing Specimens: A Large Retrospective Study [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Lab Anal
This large retrospective study compared the diagnostic performance of three commercial real‐time PCR assays (AdvanSure TB/NTM, Cobas MTB, and Xpert MTB/RIF) for MTBC detection in 3348 bronchial washing specimens. In a head‐to‐head comparison of 740 specimens, the Cobas MTB and Xpert MTB/RIF assays showed markedly higher sensitivity than the AdvanSure ...

Human T cell responses to peptides of the Mycobacterium leprae 45-kD serine-rich antigen. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In order to identify T cell epitopes within the Mycobacterium leprae 45-kD serine-rich antigen, we analysed responses to overlapping 17-mer peptides encompassing the whole antigen in non-exposed UK controls, Pakistani leprosy patients and tuberculosis ...
