Biofilms on pipelines shape the microbiome and antibiotic resistome in drinking water.

Water Research
Biofilms in the drinking water distribution system (DWDS) provide shelter for pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, how biofilms alter the microbiome and antibiotic resistome in tap water, as well as the precise quantitative ...

Metatranscriptome and Resistome of the Endodontic Microbiome

Journal of Endodontics
INTRODUCTION In this study, we used metatranscriptomics for the first time to investigate microbial composition, functional signatures, and antimicrobial resistance gene expression in endodontic infections. METHODS Root canal samples were collected from ten teeth, including five primary and five persistent/secondary endodontic infections.

The soil antibiotic resistome

Moscow University Soil Science Bulletin, 2013
Antibiotic resistance of pathogenic microorganisms is considered to be an important and urgent public health problem. Rapid and large-scale development of antibiotic resistance at a global level actually means a return to the pre-antibiotic age. The soil resistome conception includes all genetic components of antibiotic resistance that are present in a

Microcosm experiments deciphered resistome coalescence, risks and source-sink relationship of antibiotic resistance in the soil irrigated with reclaimed water.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Reclaimed water is widely used in agriculture irrigation to alleviate water scarcity, whereas the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the soil it introduces has attracted widespread attention. Currently, few studies have systematically

Insight into environmental adaptability of antibiotic resistome from surface water to deep sediments in anthropogenic lakes by metagenomics.

Water Research
The escalating antibiotic resistance threatens the long-term global health. Lake sediment is a vital hotpot in transmitting antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs); however, their vertical distribution pattern and driving mechanisms in sediment cores remain ...

Analysis of the MCMV resistome by ENU mutagenesis

Mammalian Genome, 2006
The mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) resistome is the set of host genes with nonredundant functions in resistance to MCMV infection. By screening 3,500 G(3) germline mutant mice ( approximately 1,750 gamete equivalents), we have identified eight transmissible mutations that create MCMV susceptibility in C57BL/6 mice.

Antibiotic resistome in landfill leachate and impact on groundwater.

Science of the Total Environment
Landfill leachate is a hotspot in antibiotic resistance development. However, little is known about antibiotic resistome and host pathogens in leachate and their effects on surrounding groundwater.

Lessons from the Environmental Antibiotic Resistome

Annual Review of Microbiology, 2017
Antibiotic resistance is a global public health issue of growing proportions. All antibiotics are susceptible to resistance. The evidence is now clear that the environment is the single largest source and reservoir of resistance. Soil, aquatic, atmospheric, animal-associated, and built ecosystems are home to microbes that harbor antibiotic resistance ...

Meta-analysis addressing the characterization of antibiotic resistome in global hospital wastewater.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Hospital wastewater (HWW) is a significant environmental reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). However, currently, no comprehensive understanding exists of the antibiotic resistome in global HWW.

Synergistic Control of Trimethoprim and the Antimicrobial Resistome in Electrogenic Microbial Communities.

Environmental Science and Technology
Synergistic control of the risks posed by emerging antimicrobials and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is crucial for ensuring ecological safety. Although electrogenic respiration can enhance the biodegradation of several antimicrobials and reduce ARGs
