Genomic attributes of Vibrio cholerae O1 responsible for 2022 massive cholera outbreak in Bangladesh [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2023
Vibrio cholerae has undergone continuous evolution, and differing strains have caused numerous outbreaks. Here, the authors present a genomic study of Vibrio cholerae O1 responsible for a 2022 outbreak in Dhaka.

Emergence of Vibrio cholerae O1 Sequence Type 75, South Africa, 2018–2020 [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021
We describe the molecular epidemiology of cholera in South Africa during 2018–2020. Vibrio cholerae O1 sequence type (ST) 75 recently emerged and became more prevalent than the V. cholerae O1 biotype El Tor pandemic clone. ST75 isolates were found across

Genomic insights into Vibrio cholerae O1 responsible for cholera epidemics in Tanzania between 1993 and 2017. [PDF]

PLoS Negl Trop Dis, 2019
Background Tanzania is one of seven countries with the highest disease burden caused by cholera in Africa. We studied the evolution of Vibrio cholerae O1 isolated in Tanzania during the past three decades.

Serotype conversion in Vibrio cholerae O1. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1992
Vibrio cholerae O1 exists as two major serotypes, Inaba and Ogawa, which are associated with the O antigen of the lipopolysaccharide and are capable of unequal reciprocal interconversion. The 20-kilobase rfb regions encoding O-antigen biosynthesis in strains 569B (Inaba) and O17 (Ogawa) have been cloned in Escherichia coli K-12 and the nucleotide ...

Prevalent chromosome fusion in Vibrio cholerae O1. [PDF]

Nat Commun
Abstract Two circular chromosomes are a defining feature of the bacterial family Vibrionaceae, including the pathogen Vibrio cholerae, with rare reports of isolates with a single, fused chromosome. Here, we use long-read sequencing to analyse 467 V. cholerae O1 isolates from 47 cholera patients and household contacts in Bangladesh.

VIBRIO CHOLERA O1 OGAWA BACTEREMIA WITH EXTRAINTESTINAL MANIFESTATION

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Intro: O1 Ogawa Vibrio cholerae is rarely reported to cause extraintestinal manifestation. Here, we report a case of O1 Ogawa Vibrio cholerae bacteremia with bullous cellulitis of the left leg.

Vibrio cholerae non-serogroup O1 cystitis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1989
We report a case of a patient who developed cystitis caused by non-serogroup O1 Vibrio cholerae after swimming in the Chesapeake Bay. Treatment was empirical, with complete symptomatic resolution. Genitourinary tract infections by Vibrio spp. are uncommon but should be considered when cystitis occurs after saltwater exposure in appropriate geographic ...

Vibrio cholerae O1 isolated in Kenya [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1982
Biological and serological analyses of 272 isolates of Vibrio cholerae O1 from six epidemics and from a few sporadic cases in Kenya were carried out. All of the isolates were identified as V. cholerae biotype E1 Tor, and 210 out of 272 isolates were hemolytic as examined by Feeley's method.

Pili of Vibrio cholerae non-O1 [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1990
Pili of Vibrio cholerae non-O1 strain S7 were purified and characterized. The pili of S7 were morphologically, electrophoretically, and immunologically (as far as polyclonal antibody was used) indistinguishable from the 16-kilodalton pili of V. cholerae O1 strain 82P7. The purified pili and organisms had D-mannose- and L-fucose-resistant hemagglutinin.
