Shigella Effector IpaH9.8 Modulates a Host Ubiquitin-Like Pathway and Lysosomal Biogenesis
, 2018 The bacterium Shigella causes bacterial dysentery in developing countries and represents a persistent burden to healthcare systems due to an increase in antibiotic-resistant strains and lack of a vaccine strategy.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Macrolide-Resistant Shigella sonnei
, 2008 Shigella sonnei UCN59, isolated during an outbreak of S. sonnei in January 2007, was resistant to azithromycin (MIC 64 mg/L). The isolate contained a plasmid-borne mph(A) gene encoding a macrolide 2′-phosphotransferase that inactivates macrolides ...

A new multiplex PCR for differential identification of Shigella flexneri and Shigella sonnei and detection of Shigella virulence determinants [PDF]
, 2010 Most of the multiplex PCR (mPCR) used to identify Shigella do not discriminate between Shigella species or serotypes. We designed a mPCR to differentiate between S. flexneri and S.

From Data to Knowledge to Wisdom: Lessons Learned From the Vancouver Rat Project
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.A synthesis of 15 years of research conducted by the Vancouver Rat Project revealed that: (1) Pathogen ecology within rat colonies is the result of complex interactions among rats, pathogens, and vectors. (2) Local and global population structures influence rat and pathogen ecology.

Description and evaulation of the Nationwide Shigella Surveillance System [PDF]
for the year 1976For 1975, 14,757 shigella isolations from humans were reported to CDC. This was a decrease of 24.0% from the 19,420 isolations reported in 1974.
