Identification of critical residues of the serotype modifying O-acetyltransferase of Shigella flexneri [PDF]
BACKGROUND Thirteen serotypes of Shigella flexneri (S. flexneri) have been recognised, all of which are capable of causing bacillary dysentery or shigellosis. With the emergence of the newer S.

Shigella Draft Genome Sequences: Resources for Food Safety and Public Health. [PDF]
Shigella is a major foodborne pathogen that infects humans and nonhuman primates and is the major cause of dysentery and reactive arthritis worldwide. This is the initial public release of 16 Shigella genome sequences from four species sequenced as part ...

The Rising Dominance of Shigella sonnei: An Intercontinental Shift in the Etiology of Bacillary Dysentery. [PDF]
Shigellosis is the major global cause of dysentery. Shigella sonnei, which has historically been more commonly isolated in developed countries, is undergoing an unprecedented expansion across industrializing regions in Asia, Latin America, and the Middle

Deletion of toxin–antitoxin systems in the evolution of Shigella sonnei as a host-adapted pathogen [PDF]
Pathogenic Shigella spp. are the leading cause of bacterial dysentery, with Shigella flexneri and Shigella sonnei accounting for around 90% of cases worldwide. While S.

Shigella sonnei genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis indicate recent global dissemination from Europe [PDF]
Shigella are human-adapted Escherichia coli that have gained the ability to invade the human gut mucosa and cause dysentery1,2, spreading efficiently via low-dose fecal-oral transmission3,4. Historically, S.

Finding potential drug targets against Shigella flexneri through druggable proteome exploration.
:Background: Shigella flexneri is a gram negative bacteria that causes the infectious disease ‘shigellosis’. Shigella flexneri (S. flexneri) is responsible for developing diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps in human.

Aging and periodontitis increase brain dissemination of oral bacteria
Abstract Background The microbiome is a dynamic system that changes throughout life. Studies have revealed the relationship between periodontal disease and the oral microbiota; however, the impact of periodontal disease on the expression of senescence markers and on the inflammaging of the oral and systemic microbiome remains unclear.

Abstract Background Typhonium flagelliforme is a medicinal herb in the Araceae family, widely distributed in Southeast Asia. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of hydroponic and soil‐based cultivation systems on the phytochemical content and bioactivity of T. flagelliforme. Results Using liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry (LC‐MS) analysis, 9
