Effects of Timing of Microbial Exposure on Microbiome Assembly and Amphibian Immune Development
We used a novel amphibian gnotobiotic system to investigate how disruptions to the microbiome during critical developmental periods influence microbial assembly and the development of immunity. We found that antimicrobial treatments of embryos and subsequent introduction to microbes at different developmental stages altered microbiome assembly ...

Genomic diversity of Nocardia cyriacigeorgica and Nocardia farcinica infections
The aim of this study was to investigate the genomic profiles of Nocardia. Three clinical Nocardia isolates were collected and conducted whole genome sequencing. Subsequently, 489 publicly available assemblies of Nocardia isolates were downloaded from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) public database and identified genetic ...

Abstract A 5‐year‐old, male neutered, Bengal‐cross cat presented with progressive neurological signs (ataxia and torticollis). Initial haematology, serum biochemistry and electrolytes (including calcium) were unremarkable; however, ammonia was markedly elevated.

Background: Bioaerosols can be a critical role in the transmission of hospital-acquired infections. Nocardia species are opportunistic pathogens that primarily affect immunocompromised patients, accounting for approximately 1–2% of all hospital-acquired ...

Disseminated Nocardia beijingensis Infection in an Immunocompetent Patient
Nocardia is a genus of aerobic, non-motile and non-spore-forming filamentous branching bacteria with fragmentation into bacillary or coccoid forms. Infections caused by Nocardia often occur in immunocompromised hosts and are potentially life-threatening.

Evaluation of Global Immune Biomarkers to Predict Infections in Lung Transplant Recipients
ABSTRACT Background Immune biomarkers could assess levels of immunosuppression and predict infections in transplant recipients. We aimed to evaluate the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), absolute neutrophil count (ANC), Quantiferon‐Monitor and the mitogen component of the Quantiferon‐CMV assay alone and combined to predict serious opportunistic ...

Bacteremia and adrenal gland abscess due to Nocardia cyriacigeorgica: a case report and review
Background Nocardia cyriacigeorgica is one of the most common Nocardia species found in human infections, recently reclassified. Even though Nocardia may affect all organs by hematogenous dissemination, bacteremia are uncommon.

14‐3‐3 proteins: Central hubs in plant development and stress adaptation
This review highlights recent advances elucidating the important roles of 14‐3‐3 proteins in regulating phytohormone networks, biotic and abiotic stress tolerance, growth‐defense trade‐offs, and evolutionary adaptations. Furthermore, it provides a forward‐looking perspective on 14‐3‐3 biology and the development of climate‐resilient smart crops under ...
