Development of a Multiplex Quantitative PCR Assay for Simultaneous Detection of Multiple Vibrio Species in Aquaculture Samples

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture associated Vibrio species are important bacterial pathogens causing significant economic losses in aquaculture and zoonotic infections in humans. Rapid and accurate detection of Vibrio species is therefore essential for diagnosis, surveillance and control.

Risk factors for cholera mortality: A scoping review

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 5, Page 332-350, May 2025.
Abstract Objectives Cholera is an easily treatable disease, but many people are still unnecessarily dying from it. To improve current case management practices and prevent mortality requires a comprehensive understanding of who is at higher risk of dying.

Characterization of the Immune Response after Oral Cholera Vaccination (OCV) and Effects of Mycophenolate Mofetil on Priming of this Immune Response—A Randomized, Placebo‐Controlled Trial

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 120, Issue 4, Page 1049-1056, October 2026.
Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is an immunosuppressive drug widely used by solid organ transplant recipients. Although it is known that MMF suppresses immune responses, its exact effects on specific vaccinations have not been investigated yet. Mucosal vaccinations are increasingly used, such as a cholera vaccination consisting of two oral immunizations ...

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Health and Disease

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
The roles of MAIT cells in health and disease and their therapeutic applications. In healthy individuals, riboflavin metabolites secreted by commensal bacteria at mucosal sites are presented by MR1, leading to the activation of MAIT cells. Activated MAIT cells can maintain the barrier integrity of mucosal tissues in a steady state or migrate to the ...

High Awareness, Poor Practice: The Cholera Prevention Knowledge‐Attitude‐Practice Gap in Ada Foah, Ghana—A Cross‐Sectional Study

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cholera persists as a public health threat in Ghana, particularly in coastal communities with inadequate water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) infrastructure. This study assessed the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) toward cholera among residents of Ada Foah, a high‐risk coastal district in Ghana, to identify gaps and inform ...

Structure‐Guided Engineering of a Ser192Ala Variant Enhances Bidirectional Catalysis in Amycolatopsis sulphurea L‐Alanine Dehydrogenase

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
A rationally engineered Ser192Ala variant of Amycolatopsis sulphurea L‐alanine dehydrogenase (L‐AlaDH) exhibits ∼2‐fold higher catalytic efficiency in both reductive amination and oxidative deamination. Experimental characterization confirms maintained stability under tested conditions, highlighting its potential as an improved biocatalyst for ...

Simultaneous Quantification of Vibrio metoecus and Vibrio cholerae with Its O1 Serogroup and Toxigenic Subpopulations in Environmental Reservoirs

Pathogens, 2020
Vibrio metoecus is a recently described aquatic bacterium and opportunistic pathogen, closely related to and often coexisting with Vibrio cholerae. To study the relative abundance and population dynamics of both species in aquatic environments of cholera-

Prevalent chromosome fusion in Vibrio cholerae O1

Nature Communications
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.
