Highly diverse dynamics of Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonization from initial detection in cystic fibrosis patients: A 7-year longitudinal genetic diversity study
Infect Genet Evol. 2023 Oct 11:105513. doi: 10.1016/j.meegid.2023.105513. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn cystic fibrosis (CF), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) is a major pathogen that can persistently colonize patients. Genetic studies showed a high diversity of Pa, the success of widespread or 'international' clones and described epidemic clones in CF and Epidemic High-Risk (ERH) clones. Here, we characterized Pa genetic diversity over time after first colonization in CF patients, with the aim of accurately describing the dynamics of colonization in a context of scarce longitudinal studies. Results represent the first genot...

HIV-1 subtypes maintain distinctive physicochemical signatures in Nef domains associated with immunoregulation
CONCLUSIONS: Recent studies have focused on HIV Nef as a driver of immunoregulatory disease in those HIV infected and on ART. Nef acts through a complex mixture of interactions that are directly linked to the key features of the subtype-specific domains we identified with the ENN. The study supports the hypothesis that varied Nef subtypes contribute to subtype-specific disease progression.PMID:37832752 | DOI:10.1016/j.meegid.2023.105514 (Source: Infection, Genetics and Evolution)

Molecular epidemiology and recombination of enterovirus D68 in China
In this study, it was found that the dominant amino acid composition of the BC-loop and DE-loop continued to change with the epidemic of the virus; the amino acid composition also differed in different regions of the same genotypes. The ongoing genomic and molecular epidemiology of EV-D68 remains important for predicting emergence of new viruses and preventing major outbreaks of respiratory diseases.PMID:37827347 | DOI:10.1016/j.meegid.2023.105512 (Source: Infection, Genetics and Evolution)

Characterization of the bacterial microbiota of cattle ticks in northeastern Thailand through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing
This study characterized the microbiota of the ticks infesting beef cattle in Thailand. Two species of ticks; Rhipicephalus microplus (n = 15) and Haemaphysalis bispinosa (n = 5), were collected in seven provinces in northeastern Thailand. Microbial community profile of ticks was examined based on sequences of the V3-V4 region of 16S rRNA gene. Proteobacteria (Pseudomonadota) was the most abundant phylum, followed by Firmicutes (Bacillota), and Actinobacteriota. Coxiella-like endosymbiont was the most abundant bacterial taxon overall (49% of sequence reads), followed by Anaplasma (8.5%), Corynebacterium (5.5%), Ehrlichia (...
