Vancomycin gene selection in the microbiome of urban Rattus norvegicus from hospital environment [PDF]

, 2016
Background and objectives: Widespread use of antibiotics has resulted in selection pressure on genes that make bacteria non-responsive to antibiotics. These antibiotic-resistant bacteria are currently a major threat to global health.

Exploring the Potential and Evaluating Hydrocarbon Degradation by Novel Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas Isolates From a Pristine Environment

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
The Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas isolates were tested for bioremediation applications. Genomic analyses revealed the potential to degrade complex organic compounds, potential virulence factors and resistance genes. Physiological assays showed a wide range of adaptation to abiotic factors and sensitivity to different groups of antibiotics ...

Tetracycline Resistome of the Organic Pig Gut [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2009
ABSTRACT The occurrence of genes conferring resistance to tetracyclines in the organic pig gut was assessed through the metagenomic approach. Of 9,000 bacterial artificial chromosome clones analyzed, 10 were identified as carrying the known tet (C), tet (W), and tet

Comparative Genomics of Escherichia coli Isolated from Skin and Soft Tissue and Other Extraintestinal Infections [PDF]

, 2017
Escherichia coli, an intestinal Gram-negative bacterium, has been shown to be associated with a variety of diseases in addition to intestinal infections, such as urinary tract infections (UTIs), meningitis in neonates, septicemia, skin and soft tissue ...

The Role of the Gut Microbiome in the Complex Network of Frailty Syndrome and Associated Comorbidities in Aging

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study analyzed gut microbiota in older adults with and without Frailty Syndrome by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metagenomics. Frailty was associated with altered microbial composition, metabolic functions, and increased antimicrobial resistance, whereas non‐frail individuals showed healthier profiles.

The Neglected Intrinsic Resistome of Bacterial Pathogens

PLoS ONE, 2008
Bacteria with intrinsic resistance to antibiotics are a worrisome health problem. It is widely believed that intrinsic antibiotic resistance of bacterial pathogens is mainly the consequence of cellular impermeability and activity of efflux pumps. However, the analysis of transposon-tagged Pseudomonas aeruginosa mutants presented in this article shows ...

Temporal development and potential interactions between the gut microbiome and resistome in early childhood

Microbiology Spectrum
Antimicrobial resistance-associated infections have become a major threat to global health. The gut microbiome serves as a major reservoir of bacteria with antibiotic resistance genes; whereas, the temporal development of gut resistome during early ...

Pharmacotherapeutic Controversies During Temperature Control After Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest: A Semi‐Structured Literature Review

Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, Volume 46, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Post‐resuscitation cardiac arrest care begins at the time of hospital admission and focuses on preventing the sequelae of ischemia–reperfusion injury, including secondary brain damage and post‐cardiac arrest syndrome. Clinical practice guidelines on post‐resuscitation cardiac arrest care from international medical organizations outline ...

Validated predictive modelling of the environmental resistome [PDF]

The ISME Journal, 2015
Abstract Multi-drug-resistant bacteria pose a significant threat to public health. The role of the environment in the overall rise in antibiotic-resistant infections and risk to humans is largely unknown. This study aimed to evaluate drivers of antibiotic-resistance levels across the River Thames catchment, model key biotic, spatial ...
