Shotgun Metagenomics Reveals Skin Microbiome Composition and Function in Infant Atopic Disease

Allergy, EarlyView.
Deep shotgun metagenomics profiled > 1000 infant skin swabs in the VITALITY cohort. Distinct skin microbiome signatures separated AD alone from AD with allergic co‐occurrence. Early Staphylococcus enrichment preceded later AD with allergic co‐occurrence. FLG mutations and strain‐level analyses revealed host and microbial features linked to AD.

Bacterial meningitis due to the Streptococcus mitis group in children with cerebrospinal fluid leak

IDCases, 2022
The Streptococcus mitis group constitutes a part of the oral flora in humans and has been reported to cause infective endocarditis, brain abscesses, sepsis, pneumonia, and peritonitis. However, the S. mitis group rarely causes meningitis in children.

16S/18S metabarcoding versus culture for aetiological assessment in infectious keratitis: A prospective paired‐sample study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Infectious keratitis (IK) is a vision‐threatening condition with diverse microbial aetiologies, yet conventional culture‐based diagnostics often have limited sensitivity. We investigated whether 16S/18S rRNA amplicon‐based next‐generation sequencing (NGS) can enhance aetiological assessment when used alongside standard microbiological ...

Growth Requirements of Streptococcus mitis and Sulfonamide Resistance.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1950
Summary1. Differences in the vitamin requirements of susceptible strains of S. mitis, their artificially-induced resistant variants and a naturally-resistant S. fecalis, have been determined. 2. The greatest difference was in the PGA requirements, the mitis strains grew in its absence; the resistant mutants required PGA. 3.

The molecular basis of GshT substrate binding reveals how Streptococcus pneumoniae acquires the antioxidant glutathione

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Streptococcus pneumoniae imports glutathione (GSH) from its obligate human host to defend against oxidative stress. GSH import is facilitated through the substrate binding protein (SBP) GshT, relying on charge complementarity between the protein and ligand.

Oral Delivery of a Novel Recombinant Streptococcus mitis Vector Elicits Robust Vaccine Antigen-Specific Oral Mucosal and Systemic Antibody Responses and T Cell Tolerance. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The pioneer human oral commensal bacterium Streptococcus mitis has unique biologic features that make it an attractive mucosal vaccine or therapeutic delivery vector. S. mitis is safe as a natural persistent colonizer of the mouth, throat and nasopharynx

The oral commensal Streptococcus mitis activates the aryl hydrocarbon receptor in human oral epithelial cells

, 2017
Streptococcus mitis (S. mitis) is a pioneer commensal bacterial species colonizing many of the surfaces of the oral cavity in healthy individuals. Yet, not much information is available regarding its interaction with the host.
