The regulon of Brucella abortus two- component system BvrR/BvrS reveals the coordination of metabolic pathways required for intracellular life
(PLOS ONE, 2022-09-21)
Brucella abortus is a facultative intracellular pathogen causing a severe zoonotic disease
worldwide. The two-component regulatory system (TCS) BvrR/BvrS of B. abortus is con-
served in members of the Alphaproteobacteria ...
Persistence of Brucella abortus lineages revealed by genomic characterization and phylodynamic analysis
(PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020-04-14)
Brucellosis, caused by Brucella abortus, is a major disease of cattle and humans worldwide distributed. Eradication and control of the disease has been difficult in Central and South America, Central Asia, the Mediterranean ...
Hallazgos anatomopatológicos en virtopsia, necropsia, bacteriología e histopatología del sistema nervioso central de cetáceos encallados en las playas de Costa Rica durante el periodo 2017-2021
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2021-10-08)
La fauna de cetáceos en Costa Rica incluye una estimación de 30 especies,
esta biodiversidad representa el 33% de las especies de cetáceos del mundo y, por lo
tanto, anualmente se reportan encallamientos de cetáceos a ...
Caracterización fenotípica y molecular de aislamientos multirresistentes de Staphylococcus aureus en el Laboratorio de Bacteriología de la Escuela de Medicina Veterinaria, Universidad Nacional
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2022)
Staphylococcus aureus es una bacteria oportunista que puede causar infecciones
en animales y seres humanos cuando las barreras cutáneas y mucosas se rompen.
Estas infecciones se han convertido en una amenaza para la salud ...
Studying the interaction of neutrophils and glaesserella parasuis indicates a serotype independent benefit from degradation of NETs
(MDPI, 2022-08-04)
Glaesserella (G.) parasuis is one of the most important porcine pathogens causing Glaesser’s
disease. Neutrophil granulocytes are the major counteracting cell type of the innate immune system,
which contribute to the ...
New insights into Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NETs) formation from porcine neutrophils in response to bacterial infections
(MDPI, 2022-08-11)
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (A.pp, Gram negative) and Streptococcus (S.) suis (Gram
positive) can cause severe diseases in pigs. During infection, neutrophils infiltrate to counteract
these pathogens with phagocytosis ...
ASGARD+: A New Modular Platform for Bacterial Antibiotic-Resistant Analysis
(Wiley Online Library, 2023-03-09)
ASGARD+ (Accelerated Sequential Genome-analysis and Antibiotic Re-
sistance Detection) is a command-line platform for automatic identification
of antibiotic-resistance genes in bacterial genomes, providing an ...
Pathogenicity and its implications in Taxonomy: The Brucella and Ochrobactrum Case
(MDPI, 2022)
The intracellular pathogens of the genus Brucella are phylogenetically close to Ochrobac-
trum, a diverse group of free-living bacteria with a few species occasionally infecting medically
compromised patients. A group ...
A bvrR/bvrS Non-Polar Brucella abortus Mutant Confirms the Role of the Two-Component System BvrR/BvrS in Virulence and Membrane Integrity
(MDPI, 2023-08-05)
Brucella abortus is a bacterial pathogen causing bovine brucellosis worldwide. This facultative extracellular–intracellular pathogen can be transmitted to humans, leading to a zoonotic disease.
The disease remains a public ...
Virulent Brucella nosferati infecting Desmodus rotundus has emerging potential due to the broad foraging range of its bat host for humans and wild and domestic animals
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-07-05)
Desmodus rotundus, vampire bats, transmit dangerous infections, and
brucellosis is a hazardous zoonotic disease, two adversities that coexist in the subtropical
and tropical areas of the American continent. Here, we ...
