In-depth resistome analysis by targeted metagenomics [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2017
ABSTRACTWe developed ResCap, a targeted sequence capture platform based on SeqCapEZ technology, to analyse resistomes and other genes related to antimicrobial resistance (heavy metals, biocides and plasmids). ResCap includes probes for 8,667 canonical resistance genes (7,963 antibiotic resistance genes and 704 genes conferring resistance to metals or ...

Phylogeny, Resistome, and Virulome of Escherichia coli Causing Biliary Tract Infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Escherichia coli is the most frequent Gram-negative bacilli involved in intra-abdominal infections. However, despite high mortality rates associated with biliary tract infections due to E. coli, there is no study focusing on this pathogen. In this study,

Metagenomics analysis of the neonatal intestinal resistome

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
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

Social demographics determinants for resistome and microbiome variation of a multiethnic community in Southern Malaysia

open access: yesnpj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2023
The prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in Southeast Asia is a significant concern, yet there is limited research on the gut resistome and its correlation with lifestyle and environmental factors in the region. This study aimed to profile the gut

Unique wastewater antibiotic resistome [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2015
Antibiotic Resistance![Figure][1] Genes that confer antibiotic resistance to microbiota present in wastewater treatment plants, like this treatment lagoon, are specific to that community, suggesting there is little risk that they could be transferred to the human gut microbiome PHOTO: GEORG GERSTER/SCIENCE SOURCE Antibiotic resistance is currently ...

From the microbiome to the central nervous system, an update on the epidemiology and pathogenesis of bacterial meningitis in childhood [version 1; referees: 3 approved] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the past century, advances in antibiotics and vaccination have dramatically altered the incidence and clinical outcomes of bacterial meningitis. We review the shifting epidemiology of meningitis in children, including after the implementation of ...

Comprehensive genomic landscape of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus epidermidis

open access: yesmSystems
Staphylococcus epidermidis, a common commensal bacterium found on human skin, can cause infections in clinical settings, and the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) impedes the treatment of S. epidermidis infections.

Cefquinome shows a higher impact on the pig gut microbiome and resistome compared to ceftiofur

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2023
Cephalosporins are licensed for treatment of severe bacterial infections in different species. However, the effect of these antimicrobials on the fecal microbiome and potential spread of resistance-associated genes causes great concern.

Geographic patterns and determinants of antibiotic resistomes in coastal sediments across complex ecological gradients

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Coastal areas are highly influenced by terrestrial runoffs and anthropogenic disturbances, commonly leading to ecological gradients from bay, nearshore, to offshore areas.

Enrichment allows identification of diverse, rare elements in metagenomic resistome-virulome sequencing

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2017
Background Shotgun metagenomic sequencing is increasingly utilized as a tool to evaluate ecological-level dynamics of antimicrobial resistance and virulence, in conjunction with microbiome analysis.
