Shigella sonnei infection of zebrafish reveals that O-antigen mediates neutrophil tolerance and dysentery incidence. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2019 Shigella flexneri is historically regarded as the primary agent of bacillary dysentery, yet the closely-related Shigella sonnei is replacing S. flexneri, especially in developing countries.

Microevolution and Patterns of Transmission of Shigella sonnei within Cyclic Outbreaks Shigellosis, Israel [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018 Whole-genome sequencing unveiled host and environment-related insights to Shigella sonnei transmission within cyclic epidemics during 2000–2012 in Israel. The Israeli reservoir contains isolates belonging to S. sonnei lineage III but of different origin,

Divergent Evolution and Local Establishment of Multidrug-Resistant <i>Shigella sonnei</i> in China. [PDF]
MedComm (2020)• Evolutionary history and local establishment of Chinese Shigella sonnei are unclear. • Chinese S. sonnei developed into four clades and ONPG‐negative variants. • The antimicrobial resistance phenotype of Clade I was due to an IncB/O/K/Z plasmid. • Antimicrobial resistance of Clade II was due to IncFII and IncB/O/K/Z plasmids.

Case of Extensively Drug-Resistant Shigella sonnei Infection, United States. [PDF]
Emerg Infect Dis, 2023 We report extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Shigella sonnei infection in an immunocompromised patient in Texas, USA. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry failed to identify XDR Shigella, but whole-genome sequencing ...
