Inflammatory Endotype-Associated Airway Resistome in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease [PDF]
Antimicrobial resistance is a global concern in chronic respiratory diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The collection of antibiotic resistance genes or resistome in human airways may underlie the resistance.

Metagenomics analysis of the neonatal intestinal resistome [PDF]
IntroductionThe intestinal microbiome forms a major reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Little is known about the neonatal intestinal resistome.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to investigate the intestinal resistome and factors that influence the abundance of ARGs in a large cohort of neonates.MethodsShotgun metagenomics was used

The European livestock resistome [PDF]
ABSTRACT Metagenomic sequencing has proven to be a powerful tool in the monitoring of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Here, we provide a comparative analysis of the resistome from pigs, poultry, veal calves, turkey, and rainbow trout, for a total of 538 herds across nine European countries.

Mining the Antibiotic Resistome
Antibiotic-producing microoganisms are a reservoir of drug resistance genes. Studies of the "antibiotic resistome" can inform antimicrobial drug discovery and explain the emergence of multidrug resistant pathogens. In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Westman and colleagues take an alternative look at the resistome and identify genes that could be ...

Antibiotic resistome in groundwater and its association with mountain springs and river [PDF]
The distribution of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in water sources potentially threatens drinking water safety. However, the sources of antibiotic resistome in groundwater are still under-investigated.

Population-based variations of a core resistome revealed by urban sewage metagenome surveillance
Sewage-based surveillance is widely employed to understand the occurrence and distribution of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in urban community. However, there are limited studies which investigated the sewage of different sources within community.

Human Gut Antibiotic Resistome and Progression of Diabetes
The antibiotic resistance crisis underlies globally increasing failures in treating deadly bacterial infections, largely due to the selection of antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) collection, known as the resistome, in human gut microbiota. So far, little

Resistome expansion in disease-associated human gut microbiomes
Background The resistome, the collection of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in a microbiome, is increasingly recognised as relevant to the development of clinically relevant antibiotic resistance.

Mobile resistome of human gut and pathogen drives anthropogenic bloom of antibiotic resistance [PDF]
Background The impact of human activities on the environmental resistome has been documented in many studies, but there remains the controversial question of whether the increased antibiotic resistance observed in anthropogenically impacted environments ...

The challenges of defining the human nasopharyngeal resistome [PDF]
The nasopharynx is an important microbial reservoir for the emergence and spread of antibiotic-resistant organisms. The nasopharyngeal resistome is an extensive, adaptable reservoir of antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) within this niche. Metagenomic sequencing decodes the genetic material of all organisms within a sample using next-generation ...
