Compositional analysis of the tonsil microbiota in relationship to Streptococcus suis disease in nursery pigs in Ontario

Animal Microbiome, 2022
Background The tonsil of the soft palate in pigs is the colonization site of both commensal and pathogenic microbial agents. Streptococcus suis infections are a significant economic problem in the swine industry. The development of S.

Transduction of the Streptococcus pyogenes bacteriophage Φm46.1, carrying resistance genes mef(A) and tet(O), to other Streptococcus species

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Фm46.1 — a Streptococcus pyogenes bacteriophage carrying mef(A) and tet(O), respectively encoding resistance to macrolides (M phenotype) and tetracycline — is widespread in S. pyogenes but has not been reported outside this species.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Bacteria-induced egg hatching differs for Trichuris muris and Trichuris suis [PDF]

, 2015
Eggs of the porcine whipworm Trichuris suis are currently explored in human clinical trials as a treatment of immune-mediated diseases. In this context, only the infective, embryonated eggs, constitute the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API).
