Mating avoidance in female olive baboons (Papio anubis) infected by Treponema pallidum

open access: yesScience Advances, 2019
Genital ulcers caused by Treponema pallidum lead to mating avoidance in female olive baboons.. Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are ubiquitous within wild animal populations, yet it remains largely unknown whether animals evolved behavioral ...

Mucopolysaccharidase of Treponema pallidum [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1979
Treponema pallidum (Nichols strain) exhibited mucopolysaccharidase activity. Acidic mucopolysaccharides were broken down more rapidly by viable treponemes than by heat-inactivated treponemes or membrane filtrates of treponemal suspensions.

Historic Treponema pallidum genomes from Colonial Mexico retrieved from archaeological remains

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Treponema pallidum infections occur worldwide causing, among other diseases, syphilis and yaws. In particular sexually transmitted syphilis is regarded as a re-emerging infectious disease with millions of new infections annually.

Evidence that the 36kb plasmid of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae contributes to virulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Swine dysentery (SD) results from infection of the porcine large intestine with the anaerobic intestinal spirochaete Brachyspira hyodysenteriae. Recently the genome of virulent Australian B. hyodysenteriae strain WA1 was sequenced, and a 36. kilobase (kb)

Multiplex nested polymerase chain reaction for Treponema pallidum using blood is more sensitive than using serum

open access: yesUniversa Medicina, 2018
Background Syphilis is a multistage disease transmitted primarily through sexual intercourse. Nowadays, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for Treponema pallidum has been widely used and is expected to overcome problems in diagnostic tests for ...

Nonhuman primates across sub-Saharan Africa are infected with the yaws bacterium Treponema pallidum subsp. pertenue

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2018
The bacterium Treponema pallidum (TP) causes human syphilis (subsp. pallidum; TPA), bejel (subsp. endemicum; TEN), and yaws (subsp. pertenue; TPE). Although syphilis has reached a worldwide distribution, bejel and yaws have remained endemic diseases ...

Pyruvate oxidation by Treponema pallidum [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1979
Cell-free extracts of Treponema pallidum catalyzed the decarboxylation of pyruvate. This activity was suppressed at low O2 tensions and appeared to be coenzyme A independent. Pyruvate decarboxylation was inorganic phosphate dependent, and evidence suggested that acetyl phosphate was a product.

Treponema pallidum (syphilis) antigen TpF1 induces angiogenesis through the activation of the IL-8 pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
open15Over 10 million people every year become infected by Treponema pallidum and develop syphilis, a disease with broad symptomatology that, due to the difficulty to eradicate the pathogen from the highly vascularized secondary sites of infection, is ...
