Whole genome sequences of three Treponema pallidum ssp. pertenue strains: yaws and syphilis treponemes differ in less than 0.2% of the genome sequence. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012
The yaws treponemes, Treponema pallidum ssp. pertenue (TPE) strains, are closely related to syphilis causing strains of Treponema pallidum ssp. pallidum (TPA).

Removal of bovine digital dermatitis-associated treponemes from hoof knives after foot-trimming: a disinfection field study

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2020
Background Bovine digital dermatitis (BDD) is an infectious foot disease found commonly in dairy herds. Foot-trimming is an important husbandry procedure for reducing the ensuing lameness; however, epidemiological, and microbiological studies have ...

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

Distribution of Treponema Species in Active Digital Dermatitis Lesions and Non-Lesional Skin of Dairy Cattle

open access: yesMicrobiology Research
This study examined the prevalence, distribution, and detection methods linked to Treponema species associated with active bovine digital dermatitis (BDD) in dairy cattle. Tissue, surface swabs, interdigital space swabs, and faecal samples were collected

Interaction of Treponema pallidum, the syphilis spirochete, with human platelets.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Extracellular bacteria that spread via the vasculature employ invasive mechanisms that mirror those of metastatic tumor cells, including intravasation into the bloodstream and survival during hematogenous dissemination, arrestation despite blood flow ...
