New Sequence Types and Antimicrobial Drug–Resistant Strains of Streptococcus suis in Diseased Pigs, Italy, 2017–2019

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2022
Streptococcus suis is a pathogen associated with severe diseases in pigs and humans. Human infections have a zoonotic origin in pigs. To assess circulating strains, we characterized the serotypes, sequence types, and antimicrobial susceptibility of 78 S.

Meningitis por Streptococcus suis [PDF]

open access: yesAnales de Medicina Interna, 2001
La infección humana por Streptococcus suis (S. suis) es una zoonosis, con un riesgo ocupacional conocido y que suele presentarse como meningitis purulenta, que tiene baja mortalidad y frecuentes secuelas de hipoacusia y ataxia. Se han publicado menos de 150 casos humanos desde el informe original de hace 30 años.

Contribution of fibronectin-binding protein to pathogenesis of Streptococcus suis serotype 2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In the present study we investigated the role of the fibronectin (FN)- and fibrinogen (FGN)-binding protein (FBPS) in the pathogenesis of Streptococcus suis serotype 2 in piglets. The complete gene encoding FBPS from S.

Comparative virulence and antimicrobial resistance distribution of Streptococcus suis isolates obtained from the United States

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Streptococcus suis is a zoonotic bacterial swine pathogen causing substantial economic and health burdens to the pork industry worldwide. Most S. suis genome sequences available in public databases are from isolates obtained outside the United States. We

Protection of pigs against challenge with virulent Streptococcus suis serotype 2 strains by a muramidase-released protein and extracellular factor vaccine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The efficacy of a muramidase-released protein (MRP) and extracellular factor (EF) vaccine in preventing infection and disease in pigs challenged either with a homologous or a heterologous Streptococcus suis serotype 2 strain (MRP EF ) was compared with ...

Frequencies and characteristics of genome-wide recombination in Streptococcus agalactiae, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Streptococcus suis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Streptococcus consists of ecologically diverse species, some of which are important pathogens of humans and animals. We sought to quantify and compare the frequencies and characteristics of within-species recombination in the pan-genomes of Streptococcus

Hemagglutination properties of Streptococcus suis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1990
A total of 49 strains (23 reference strains and 26 field isolates) of Streptococcus suis were tested for their ability to agglutinate erythrocytes from different animal species. Ten different hemagglutination patterns were established. Thirty-three strains (67%) did not agglutinate any of the erythrocytes tested; sixteen strains (33%) agglutinated ...

Update on Streptococcus suis Research and Prevention in the Era of Antimicrobial Restriction: 4th International Workshop on S. suis

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Streptococcus suis is a swine pathogen and a zoonotic agent afflicting people in close contact with infected pigs or pork meat. Sporadic cases of human infections have been reported worldwide. In addition, S.

Comparative analysis of Streptococcus suis genomes identifies novel candidate virulence-associated genes in North American isolates

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2022
Streptococcus suis is a significant economic and welfare concern in the swine industry. Pan-genome analysis provides an in-silico approach for the discovery of genes involved in pathogenesis in bacterial pathogens.
