Experimental inoculation of Treponema pedis T A4 failed to induce ear necrosis in pigs

open access: yesPorcine Health Management, 2017
Ear necrosis is a syndrome affecting pigs shortly after weaning and is regarded as an animal welfare issue. The etiology is unknown but Treponema spp., predominantly Treponema pedis, are commonly detected in the lesions.

Molecular epidemiology of oral treponemes in patients with periodontitis and in periodontitis-resistant subjects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The etiologic role of oral treponemes in human periodontitis is still under debate. Although seen by dark-field microscopy in large numbers, their possible role is still unclear since they comprise some 60 different phylotypes, most of which are still ...

Efficacy of linezolid on Treponema pallidum, the syphilis agent: A preclinical study

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2021
Background: Penicillin G, the current standard treatment for syphilis, has important drawbacks, but virtually no preclinical or clinical studies have been performed to identify viable alternatives.

Directly Sequenced Genomes of Contemporary Strains of Syphilis Reveal Recombination-Driven Diversity in Genes Encoding Predicted Surface-Exposed Antigens

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Syphilis, caused by Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum (TPA), remains an important public health problem with an increasing worldwide prevalence. Despite recent advances in in vitro cultivation, genetic variability of this pathogen during infection is ...

Syphilis at the crossroad of phylogenetics and paleopathology. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2010
The origin of syphilis is still controversial. Different research avenues explore its fascinating history. Here we employed a new integrative approach, where paleopathology and molecular analyses are combined.

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 ...

Digital dermatitis treponemes associated with a severe foot disease in dairy goats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A UK dairy goat herd was assessed after reports of a severe lameness problem of unknown aetiology. A lameness prevalence estimate was produced and individual clinical examination of 15 randomly selected lame goats was performed.

Detection and isolation of digital dermatitis treponemes from skin and tail lesions in pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Pig skin lesions are common significant welfare issues, and can cause large economic losses, due to culling of severely affected animals or carcass condemnation at slaughter.
