| 9981 | 0 | 0.9287 | High-contrast imaging of cellular non-repetitive drug-resistant genes via in situ dead Cas12a-labeled PCR. In situ imaging of genes of pathogenic bacteria can profile cellular heterogeneity, such as the emergence of drug resistance. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) serves as a classic approach to image mRNAs inside cells, but it remains challenging to elucidate genomic DNAs and relies on multiple fluorescently labeled probes. Herein, we present a dead Cas12a (dCas12a)-labeled polymerase chain reaction (CasPCR) assay for high-contrast imaging of cellular drug-resistant genes. We employed a syncretic dCas12a-green fluorescent protein (dCas12a-GFP) to tag the amplicons, thereby enabling high-contrast imaging and avoiding multiple fluorescently labeled probes. The CasPCR assay can quantify quinolone-resistant Salmonella enterica in mixed populations and identify them isolated from poultry farms. | 2024 | 39229640 |
| 3670 | 1 | 0.9287 | Quantification of tetracycline and chloramphenicol resistance in digestive tracts of bulls and piglets fed with Toyocerin®, a feed additive containing Bacillus toyonensis spores. The complete genome sequencing of Bacillus toyonensis, the active ingredient of the feed additive Toyocerin(®), has revealed the presence of tetM and cat genes, a tetracycline and a chloramphenicol resistance gene, respectively. The aim of this study was to determine whether the use of Toyocerin(®) (viable spores of B. toyonensis) as a probiotic in feedstuff increased the abundance of tetracycline and chloramphenicol resistant bacteria in the intestinal tracts of piglets and Holstein bulls. To this end, qPCRs were designed to quantify the abundances of tetM and cat genes and B. toyonensis in the intestinal content of animals treated and non-treated with Toyocerin(®). Additionally, the culturable bacterial populations resistant to tetracycline or chloramphenicol were enumerated by plate counting. No statistical significances were detected between the concentrations of tetracycline or chloramphenicol resistant bacterial populations in treated and non-treated animals. The concentrations of tetM and cat in most of the treated animals were similar to those of B. toyonensis. Furthermore, tetM and cat genes were also detected in some non-treated animals, although in low concentrations. These results suggest that tetM and cat genes are already circulating among the commensal microbiota regardless of the use of Toyocerin(®). The use of Toyocerin(®) as a supplement in feedstuff does not increase the abundances of tetracycline and chloramphenicol resistant bacteria in the intestinal tracts of piglets and Holstein bulls beyond the contribution directly associated to the introduction of B. toyonensis spores through diet. | 2014 | 25085518 |
| 4567 | 2 | 0.9285 | Changes in multidrug resistance of enteric bacteria following an intervention to reduce antimicrobial resistance in dairy calves. An intervention study was conducted to determine whether discontinuing the feeding of milk replacer medicated with oxytetracycline and neomycin to preweaned calves reduced antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Escherichia coli bacteria. Results demonstrated that the intervention did reduce multidrug resistance in these bacteria but that other factors also influenced multidrug resistance. | 2009 | 19846639 |
| 3733 | 3 | 0.9280 | Residual concentrations of antimicrobial growth promoters in poultry litter favour plasmid conjugation among Escherichia coli. Considering that plasmid conjugation is a major driver for the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance in bacteria, this study aimed to investigate the effects of residual concentrations of antimicrobial growth promoters (AGPs) in poultry litter on the frequencies of IncFII-FIB plasmid conjugation among Escherichia coli organisms. A 2 × 5 factorial trial was performed in vitro, using two types of litter materials (sugarcane bagasse and wood shavings) and five treatments of litter: non-treated (CON), herbal alkaloid sanguinarine (SANG), AGPs monensin (MON), lincomycin (LCM) and virginiamycin (VIR). E. coli H2332 and E. coli J62 were used as donor and recipient strains, respectively. The presence of residues of monensin, lincomycin and virginiamycin increased the frequency of plasmid conjugation among E. coli in both types of litter materials. On the contrary, sanguinarine significantly reduced the frequency of conjugation among E. coli in sugarcane bagasse litter. The conjugation frequencies were significantly higher in wood shavings compared with sugarcane bagasse only in the presence of AGPs. Considering that the presence of AGPs in the litter can increase the conjugation of IncFII-FIB plasmids carrying antimicrobial resistance genes, the real impact of this phenomenon on the dissemination of antimicrobial resistant bacteria in the poultry production chain must be investigated. | 2022 | 35138674 |
| 3479 | 4 | 0.9273 | Detecting antibiotic resistance genes and human potential pathogenic Bacteria in fishmeal by culture-independent method. Fishmeal is a fundamental ingredient of feedstuffs and is used globally in aquaculture. However, there are few data on the antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and human pathogenic bacteria in fishmeal and little understanding of the potential risks of fishmeal application in mariculture systems. Here, we investigated the high-throughput profiles of ARGs and human potential pathogenic bacteria (HPPB) in representative fishmeals (n = 5) and the potential impact of fishmeal on mariculture sediments. ARGs were quantified with microbial DNA quantitative PCR arrays and HPPB were analyzed with Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes. The impact of the fishmeal on the aquaculture sediments was assessed in a microcosm study. Twenty-four unique ARGs (3-14 per sample) and 25 HPPB species were detected in the fishmeal samples. The most prevalent ARGs were fluoroquinolone resistance genes. The overall abundance of HPPB was 5.0-25.5%, and the HPPB species were dominated by Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Clostridium novyi, and Escherichia coli. In the mariculture microcosm sediment, fishmeal significantly increased the normalized abundance of the class I integrase gene (25.4-fold), which plays an important role in the dissemination of ARGs. Dosing with fishmeal also contributed to increases in a resident sulfanilamide resistance gene (sulI gene) and the emergence of a macrolide resistance gene (ermB gene) in the sediment. These findings demonstrated that fishmeal itself is an underestimated reservoir and source of ARGs and HPPBs, and that the application of fishmeal facilitates the dissemination of ARGs in aquaculture sediments. Our results extend our knowledge of the ARGs and HPPB within fishmeal and may provide a feasible and effective approach to the detection of ARGs and HPPB in fishmeal during food safety inspection.

| 6729 | 5 | 0.9273 | Gut bacteria contribute to fenvalerate resistance in the tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta. The tomato leafminer is a destructive pest causing significant damage to crops. Overreliance on insecticides has led to developing resistance in this insect pest. Microorganisms may benefit insects, including nutrient acquisition, digestion, immunity, and resistance to pesticides. Understanding these diverse interactions is crucial for effective management of pests and their resistance to pesticides. Here, we have investigated Here, we have investigated the role of gut bacteria in the development of fenvalerate-resistant tomato leafminer. The gut bacteria of fenvalerate-resistant (FR) and fenvalerate-susceptible (FS) populations were compared using Real-time PCR with group-specific primers. It was shown that the gut bacteria community of the two populations differed. The population of Actinobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria communities in the gut of FR larvae were greater than those in FS ones. Also, some of the gut bacteria cultured on NA medium containing fenvalerate were able to grow and degrade fenvalerate. 16S rRNA sequencing showed that Enterobacter spp (Gammaproteobacteria) was common in both populations. However, Micrococcus spp (Actinobacteria) was detected specifically in the resistant population. Fenvalerate bioassays with gut bacteria-free (germ-free) line and the gnotobiotic lines that have only Enterobacter spp (FR(E)), Micrococcus spp (FR(M)), Enterobacter spp and Micrococcus spp (FR(E+M)), demonstrated that the resistant ratio diminished in the gut bacteria-free (germ-free) line, while in the FR(E+M) line, resistant ratio was reduced by 15 percent. Our findings showed that the gut bacteria especially Enterobacter spp and Micrococcus spp are involved in developing resistant tomato leafminers to fenvalerate. Further investigations are required to identify the specific mechanisms of resistance, which could provide valuable insights for effectively controlling this pest. | 2025 | 40685396 |
| 811 | 6 | 0.9270 | Genomic analysis of five antibiotic-resistant bacteria isolated from the environment. Our study presents the whole-genome sequences and annotation of five bacteria isolates, each demonstrating distinct antibiotic resistance. These isolates include Bacillus paranthracis RIT 841, Atlantibacter hermanii RIT 842, Pantoea leporis RIT 844, Enterococcus casseliflavus RIT 845, and Pseudomonas alkylphenolica RIT 846, underscoring the importance of understanding antimicrobial resistance. | 2024 | 39189722 |

| 505 | 8 | 0.9265 | Production of phytoalexins in peanut (Arachis hypogaea) seed elicited by selected microorganisms. Under favorable conditions, the peanut plant demonstrates appreciable resistance to fungal invasion by producing and accumulating phytoalexins, antimicrobial stilbenoids. This mechanism for resistance is little understood, yet it is crucial for breeding and genetically modifying peanut plants to develop new cultivars with fungal resistance. The dynamics of phytoalexin production in peanut seeds and embryos challenged by selected important fungi and bacteria was investigated. Different biotic agents selectively elicited production of major peanut stilbenoids, resveratrol, arachidin-1, arachidin-3, and SB-1. Aspergillis species, compared to other biotic agents, were more potent elicitors of stilbenoids. Embryos demonstrated significantly higher production of stilbenoids compared to cotyledons and may serve as a convenient source of genetic material in isolating genes for peanut plant defense enhancement. | 2013 | 23387286 |
| 3547 | 9 | 0.9265 | Occurrence of 40 sanitary indicators in French digestates derived from different anaerobic digestion processes and raw organic wastes from agricultural and urban origin. This study investigated the sanitary quality of digestates resulting from the mesophilic anaerobic digestion (AD) of urban and agricultural organic wastes (OWs). 40 sanitary indicators, including pathogenic bacteria, antimicrobial resistance genes, virulence factor genes, and mobile genetic elements were evaluated using real-time PCR and/or droplet digital PCR. 13 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and 13 pharmaceutical products (PHPs) were also measured. We assessed agricultural OWs from three treatment plants to study the effect of different AD processes (feeding mode, number of stages, pH), and used three laboratory-scale reactors to study the effect of different feed-supplies (inputs). The lab-scale reactors included: Lab1 fed with 97% activated sludge (urban waste) and 3% cow manure; Lab2 fed with 85% sludge-manure mixture supplemented with 15% wheat straw (WS); and Lab3 fed with 81% sludge-manure mixture, 15% WS, and 4% zeolite powder. Activated sludge favored the survival of the food-borne pathogens Clostridium perfringens and Bacillus cereus, carrying the toxin-encoding genes cpe and ces, respectively. Globally, the reactors fed with fecal matter supplemented with straw (Lab2) or with straw and zeolite (Lab3) had a higher hygienization efficiency than the reactor fed uniquely with fecal matter (Lab1). Three pathogenic bacteria (Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex), a beta-lactam resistance gene (bla (TEM)), and three mobile genetic elements (intI1, intI2, and IS26) were significantly decreased in Lab2 and Lab3. Moreover, the concentrations of 11 PAHs and 11 PHPs were significantly lower in Lab2 and Lab3 samples than in Lab1 samples. The high concentrations of micropollutants, such as triclosan, found in Lab1, could explain the lower hygienization efficiency of this reactor. Furthermore, the batch-fed reactor had a more efficient hygienization effect than the semi-continuous reactors, with complete removal of the ybtA gene, which is involved in the production of the siderophore yersiniabactin, and significant reduction of intI2 and tetO. These data suggest that it is essential to control the level of chemical pollutants in raw OWs to optimize the sanitary quality of digestates, and that adding co-substrate, such as WS, may overcome the harmful effect of pollutants. | 2024 | 39165575 |
| 9995 | 10 | 0.9265 | Direct fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in Escherichia coli with a target-specific quantum dot-based molecular beacon. Quantum dots (QDs) are inorganic fluorescent nanocrystals with excellent properties such as tunable emission spectra and photo-bleaching resistance compared with organic dyes, which make them appropriate for applications in molecular beacons. In this work, quantum dot-based molecular beacons (QD-based MBs) were fabricated to specifically detect β-lactamase genes located in pUC18 which were responsible for antibiotic resistance in bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) DH5α. QD-based MBs were constructed by conjugating mercaptoacetic acid-quantum dots (MAA-QDs) with black hole quencher 2 (BHQ2) labeled thiol DNA vial metal-thiol bonds. Two types of molecular beacons, double-strands beacons and hairpin beacons, were observed in product characterization by gel electrophoresis. Using QD-based MBs, one-step FISH in tiny bacteria DH5α was realized for the first time. QD-based MBs retained their bioactivity when hybridizing with complementary target DNA, which showed excellent advantages of eliminating background noise caused by adsorption of non-specific bioprobes and achieving clearer focus of genes in plasmids pUC18, and capability of bacterial cell penetration and signal specificity in one-step in situ hybridization. | 2010 | 20729070 |
| 6129 | 11 | 0.9263 | Yersinia ruckeri Infection and Enteric Redmouth Disease among Endangered Chinese Sturgeons, China, 2022. During October 2022, enteric redmouth disease (ERM) affected Chinese sturgeons at a farm in Hubei, China, causing mass mortality. Affected fish exhibited characteristic red mouth and intestinal inflammation. Investigation led to isolation of a prominent bacterial strain, zhx1, from the internal organs and intestines of affected fish. Artificial infection experiments confirmed the role of zhx1 as the pathogen responsible for the deaths. The primary pathologic manifestations consisted of degeneration, necrosis, and inflammatory reactions, resulting in multiple organ dysfunction and death. Whole-genome sequencing of the bacteria identified zhx1 as Yersinia ruckeri, which possesses 135 drug-resistance genes and 443 virulence factor-related genes. Drug-susceptibility testing of zhx1 demonstrated high sensitivity to chloramphenicol and florfenicol but varying degrees of resistance to 18 other antimicrobial drugs. Identifying the pathogenic bacteria associated with ERM in Chinese sturgeons establishes a theoretical foundation for the effective prevention and control of this disease. | 2024 | 38781928 |
| 8750 | 12 | 0.9260 | MicroRNA miR171b Positively Regulates Resistance to Huanglongbing of Citrus. Huanglongbing (HLB) is one of the most severe citrus diseases in the world, causing huge economic losses. However, efficient methods of protecting citrus from HLB have not yet been developed. microRNA (miRNA)-mediated regulation of gene expression is a useful tool to control plant diseases, but the miRNAs involved in regulating resistance to HLB have not yet been identified. In this study, we found that miR171b positively regulated resistance to HLB in citrus. Upon infection with HLB bacteria, the bacteria were detected in the second month in the control plants. However, in the miR171b-overexpressing transgenic citrus plants, the bacteria could not be detected until the 24th month. RNA-seq data indicated that multiple pathways, such as photosynthesis, plant-pathogen interaction, the MAPK signaling pathway, etc., might be involved in improving the resistance to HLB in miR171b-overexpressing plants compared with the control. Finally, we determined that miR171b could target SCARECROW-like (SCL) genes to downregulate their expression, which then led to promoted resistance to HLB stress. Collectively, our results demonstrate that miR171b plays a positive regulatory role in resistance to citrus HLB, and provides a new insight into the role of miRNAs in the adaptation of citrus to HLB stress. | 2023 | 36982808 |
| 2521 | 13 | 0.9259 | Insights into antimicrobial resistance among long distance migratory East Canadian High Arctic light-bellied Brent geese (Branta bernicla hrota). BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is the most significant threat to global public health and ascertaining the role wild birds play in the epidemiology of resistance is critically important. This study investigated the prevalence of AMR Gram-negative bacteria among long-distance migratory East Canadian High Arctic (ECHA) light-bellied Brent geese found wintering on the east coast of Ireland. FINDINGS: In this study a number of bacterial species were isolated from cloacal swabs taken from ECHA light-bellied Brent geese. Nucleotide sequence analysis identified five species of Gram-negative bacteria; the dominant isolated species were Pantoea spp. (n = 5) followed by Buttiauxella agrestis (n = 2). Antimicrobial susceptibility disk diffusion results identified four of the Pantoea spp. strains, and one of the Buttiauxella agrestis strains resistant to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid. CONCLUSION: To our knowledge this is the first record of AMR bacteria isolated from long distance migratory ECHA light-bellied Brent geese. This indicates that this species may act as reservoirs and potential disseminators of resistance genes into remote natural ecosystems across their migratory range. This population of geese frequently forage (and defecate) on public amenity areas during the winter months presenting a potential human health risk. | 2015 | 27651892 |
| 2992 | 14 | 0.9259 | Salmonella and Antimicrobial Resistance in Wild Rodents-True or False Threat? Transmission of pathogenic and resistant bacteria from wildlife to the bacterial gene pool in nature affects the ecosystem. Hence, we studied intestine content of five wild rodent species: the yellow-necked wood mouse (Apodemus flavicollis, n = 121), striped field mouse (Apodemus agrarius, n = 75), common vole (Microtus arvalis, n = 37), bank vole (Myodes glareolus, n = 3), and house mouse (Mus musculus, n = 1) to assess their potential role as an antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and Salmonella vector. The methods adopted from official AMR monitoring of slaughtered animals were applied and supplemented with colistin resistance screening. Whole-genome sequencing of obtained bacteria elucidated their epidemiological relationships and zoonotic potential. The study revealed no indications of public health relevance of wild rodents from the sampled area in Salmonella spread and their limited role in AMR dissemination. Of 263 recovered E. coli, the vast majority was pan-susceptible, and as few as 5 E. coli showed any resistance. In four colistin-resistant strains neither the known mcr genes nor known mutations in pmr genes were found. One of these strains was tetracycline-resistant due to tet(B). High diversity of virulence factors (n = 43) noted in tested strains including ibeA, cdtB, air, eilA, astA, vat, pic reported in clinically relevant types of enteric E. coli indicate that rodents may be involved in the ecological cycle of these bacteria. Most of the strains represented unique sequence types and ST10805, ST10806, ST10810, ST10824 were revealed for the first time, showing genomic heterogeneity of the strains. The study broadened the knowledge on phylogenetic diversity and structure of the E. coli population in wild rodents. | 2020 | 32967245 |
| 7648 | 15 | 0.9259 | Bacterial Associations Across House Fly Life History: Evidence for Transstadial Carriage From Managed Manure. House flies (Diptera: Muscidae; Musca domestica L.) associate with microbe-rich substrates throughout life history. Because larvae utilize bacteria as a food source, most taxa present in the larval substrate, e.g., manure, are digested or degraded. However, some species survive and are present as third-instar larvae begin pupation. During metamorphosis, many bacteria are again lost during histolysis of the larval gut and subsequent remodeling to produce the gut of the imago. It has been previously demonstrated that some bacterial species survive metamorphosis, being left behind in the puparium, present on the body surface, or in the gut of the emerged adult. We used a combined culture-molecular approach to identify viable microbes from managed manure residue and a wild population of house fly larvae, pupae, puparia, and adults to assess transstadial carriage. All larval (10/10), pupal (10/10), and puparial (10/10) cultures were positive for bacteria. Several bacterial species that were present in larvae also were present either in pupae or puparia. Four viable bacterial species were detectable in 6 of 10 imagoes reared from manure. Of note is the apparent transstadial carriage of Bacillus sonorensis, which has been associated with milk spoilage at dairies, and Alcaligenes faecalis, which can harbor numerous antibiotic resistance genes on farms. The potential of newly emerged flies to harbor and disseminate bacteria from managed manure on farms is an understudied risk that deserves further evaluation. | 2016 | 26798138 |
| 8437 | 16 | 0.9259 | Tocopherol polyethylene glycol succinate-modified hollow silver nanoparticles for combating bacteria-resistance. Multiple drug resistance and the increase in the appearance of superbugs together with the exceedingly scant development of new potent antibiotic drugs pose an urgent global medical threat and imminent public security crisis. In the present study, we fabricated well-dispersed tocopherol polyethylene glycol succinate (TPGS)-capped silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of about 10 nm in size. The hollow structure of the TPGS-capped AgNPs (TPGS/AgNPs) was confirmed and applied to load antibiotics. The TPGS/AgNPs proved to be able to cross the bacterial cell wall and penetrate into bacteria, thereby delivering more of the antibiotic to the interior of bacteria and thus enhancing the in vitro antibacterial effect of the antibiotic, even overcoming the drug-resistance in drug-resistant E. coli and Acinetobacter baumannii. It was found that the TPGS modification in the TPGS/AgNPs could decrease the activity of the efflux pumps AdeABC and AdeIJK in drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii via inhibiting the efflux pump genes adeB and adeJ, thus increasing the accumulation of the delivered antibiotic and overcoming the drug-resistance. Tigecycline delivered by TPGS/AgNPs could effectively antagonize drug-resistance in an acute peritonitis model mice, thereby increasing the survival rate and alleviating the inflammatory response. TPGS/AgNPs were developed as a novel and effective antibiotic delivery system and TPGS was demonstrated to have great potential as a pharmaceutical excipient for use in drug-resistant infection therapy. | 2019 | 30968093 |
| 6391 | 17 | 0.9258 | Monitoring antibiotic resistomes and bacterial microbiomes in the aerosols from fine, hazy, and dusty weather in Tianjin, China using a developed high-volume tandem liquid impinging sampler. Accurate quantification of the airborne antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is critically important to assess their health risks. However, the currently widely used high-volume filter sampler (HVFS) often causes the desiccation of the sample, interfering with subsequent bacterial culture. To overcome this limitation, a high-volume tandem liquid impinging sampler (HVTLIS) was developed and optimized to investigate the airborne bacterial microbiomes and antibiotic resistomes under different weathers in Tianjin, China. Results revealed that HVTLIS can capture significantly more diverse culturable bacteria, ARB, and ARGs than HVFS. Compared with fine and hazy weathers, dusty weather had significantly more diverse and abundant airborne bacteria, ARGs, and human opportunistic pathogens with the resistance to last-resort antibiotics of carbapenems and polymyxin B, implicating a potential human health threat of dusty bioaerosols. Intriguingly, we represented the first report of Saccharibacteria predominance in the bioaerosol, demonstrating that the potential advantage of HVTLIS in collecting airborne microbes. | 2020 | 32438084 |
| 3548 | 18 | 0.9258 | From flagellar assembly to DNA replication: CJSe's role in mitigating microbial antibiotic resistance genes. The emergence of Antibiotic Resistance Genes (ARGs) in Campylobacter jejuni (CJ) poses a severe threat to food safety and human health. However, the specific impact of CJ and its variants on ARGs and other related factors remains to be further elucidated. Herein, integrated metagenomic sequencing and co-occurrence network analysis approach were employed to investigate the impact of CJ and CJ incorporated with biogenic selenium (CJSe) on ARGs, flagellar assembly pathways, microbial communities, and DNA replication pathways in chicken manure. Compared to the Control (CON) and CJ groups, the CJSe group exhibited 2.4-fold increase selenium levels (P < 0.01) in chicken manure. Notable differences were also observed between the CJ and CJSe groups, with sequence results showing a CJ > CJSe > CON trend in total ARG copy numbers. Furthermore, the CJSe group showed 31.6 % fewer flagellar assembly genes compared to the CJ group. Additionally, compared to the CJ group, CJSe inhibited pathways such as basal body/hook (e.g., FliH, FliO, FliQ reduced by 25-52 %) and stator (MotB downregulated by 42.3 %), suppressing flagellar assembly. We also found that both CJ and CJSe influenced bacterial DNA replication pathways, with the former increasing ARG-carrying bacteria and the latter, under selenium-induced selective pressure, reducing ARG-carrying bacteria. Moreover, compared to the CJ group, the CJSe group showed a significantly lower 9.72 % copy number of total archaeal DNA replication genes. Furthermore, through intricate co-occurrence network analysis, we discovered the complex interplay between changes in ARGs and bacterial and archaeal DNA replication dynamics within the microbial community. These findings indicate that CJSe mitigates the threat posed by CJ and reduces ARG prevalence, while its dual functionality enables applications in biofortified crop production and soil remediation in selenium-deficient regions, thereby advancing circular economy systems. While the current study demonstrates CJSe's dual functionality under controlled conditions, future work will implement a dedicated ecological risk assessment framework encompassing Se speciation/leaching tests and non-target organism assays to confirm environmental safety under field-relevant scenarios. This approach aligns with sustainable strategies for food security and public health safeguarding. | 2025 | 41108960 |
| 7730 | 19 | 0.9258 | Cerebral Intraparenchymal Hemorrhage Changes Patients' Gut Bacteria Composition and Function. Gut bacteria consists of 150 times more genes than humans that are vital for health. Several studies revealed that gut bacteria are associated with disease status and influence human behavior and mentality. Whether human brain injury alters the gut bacteria is yet unclear, we tested 20 fecal samples from patients with cerebral intraparenchymal hemorrhage and corresponding healthy controls through metagenomic shotgun sequencing. The composition of patients' gut bacteria changed significantly at the phylum level; Verrucomicrobiota was the specific phylum colonized in the patients' gut. The functional alteration was observed in the patients' gut bacteria, including high metabolic activity for nutrients or neuroactive compounds, strong antibiotic resistance, and less virulence factor diversity. The changes in the transcription and metabolism of differential species were more evident than those of the non-differential species between groups, which is the primary factor contributing to the functional alteration of patients with cerebral intraparenchymal hemorrhage. | 2022 | 35372117 |
