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.

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;

The Composition and Spatial Patterns of Bacterial Virulence Factors and Antibiotic Resistance Genes in 19 Wastewater Treatment Plants.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Bacterial pathogenicity and antibiotic resistance are of concern for environmental safety and public health. Accumulating evidence suggests that wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are as an important sink and source of pathogens and antibiotic ...

Helicobacter pylori virulence genes

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2019
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the most important human pathogens, infecting approximately half of the global population. Despite its high prevalence, only a subset of H. pylori infected individuals develop serious gastroduodenal pathology. The pathogenesis of H.
