Long-chain fatty acids alter transcription of Helicobacter pylori virulence and regulatory genes [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Infection with Helicobacter pylori is one of the most important risk factors for developing gastric cancer (GC). The type IV secretion system (T4SS) encoded in the cag pathogenicity island is the main virulence factor of H.

Role of glucose and CcpA in capsule expression and virulence of Streptococcus suis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Streptococcus suis is one of the most important pathogens in pigs and is also an emerging zoonotic agent. After crossing the epithelial barrier, S. suis causes bacteraemia, resulting in meningitis, endocarditis and bronchopneumonia.

Regulation of virulence genes in Listeria

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001
As in all pathogenic bacteria, virulence of the facultative intracellular Listeria species is a multifactorial trait. The expression of the bacterial genes involved in the different steps of the infectious process--invasion, intracellular multiplication and spreading--is temporally and spatially controlled, thus ensuring the presence of the respective ...

Expanding dynamics of the virulence-related gene variations in the toxigenic Vibrio cholerae serogroup O1

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Toxigenic Vibrio cholerae serogroup O1 is the causative pathogen in the sixth and seventh cholera pandemics. Cholera toxin is the major virulent factor but other virulence and virulence-related factors play certain roles in the pathogenesis ...

Detection of virulence-associated genes in Brucella melitensis biovar 3, the prevalent field strain in different animal species in Egypt [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Veterinary Journal, 2018
The current study involved detection of three virulence genes (bvfA, virB, ure) by PCR in 52 isolates of Brucella melitensis biovar 3, recovered from different animal species (28 sheep, 10 goats, 9 cattle and 5 buffaloes). Of the 52 B. melitensis strains;
