Evaluation of the genetic relatedness of Bacteroides fragilis isolates by TRs analysis
Objective(s): Human gastrointestinal tract harbors a variety of bacteria with vital roles in human health. Bacteroides fragilis is considered one of the dominant constituents of gut microflora which can act as an opportunistic pathogen leading to various diseases, including colon cancer, diarrhea, uterine and intrathecal abscesses, septicemia, and pelvic inflammation. ...
متن کاملUV light induction of proteins in Bacteroides fragilis under anaerobic conditions.
Far-UV irradiation of Bacteroides fragilis cells under anaerobic conditions resulted in the induction of a new 95,000-molecular-weight protein and the increased synthesis of two proteins with molecular weights of 90,000 and 70,000. The latter two proteins were synthesized in small amounts in unirradiated cells. The induction of a 37,000- to 40,000-molecular-weight protein was not observed in ir...
متن کاملPhoB Regulates the Survival of Bacteroides fragilis in Peritoneal Abscesses
In response to phosphate limitation, bacteria employ the Pho regulon, a specific regulatory network for phosphate acquisition. The two-component signal transduction system of PhoRB plays a crucial role in the induction of Pho regulon genes, leading to the adaptation to phosphate starvation. Herein, we identified the PhoRB system in Bacteroides fragilis, a commensal gut bacterium, and evaluated ...
متن کاملEffects of Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis on peritoneal host defenses.
Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis are common copathogens in clinical intra-abdominal sepsis, yet it is unclear how they interact synergistically in vivo. We sought to determine whether E. coli and B. fragilis, in combination but not alone, could exert a detrimental effect on the peritoneal host defenses of translymphatic absorption and bacterial phagocytosis. Our data indicated that non...
متن کاملDiscerning the role of Bacteroides fragilis in celiac disease pathogenesis.
Celiac disease (CD) is associated with intestinal dysbiosis, which can theoretically lead to dysfunctions in host-microbe interactions and contribute to the disease. In the present study, possible differences in Bacteroides spp. and their pathogenic features between CD patients and controls were investigated. Bacteroides clones (n = 274) were isolated, identified, and screened for the presence ...
