Shigella flexneri is the most common cause of bacterial dysentery in low-income countries. Despite this, S. flexneri remains largely unexplored from a genomic standpoint and is still described using a vocabulary based on serotyping reactions developed over half-a-century ago. Here we combine whole genome sequencing with geographical and temporal data to examine the natural history of the specie...

| Shigellosis caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) Shigella strains is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Shigella strains usually harbour heterogeneous population of plasmids which can confer resistance to different antibiotics. A hospital based survey was conducted to determine the pattern of antimicrobial resistance and plasmid profiles in Shigella species ...

Diagnoses of Shigella flexneri in the United Kingdom (UK) are usually travel-related. However, since 2009, there has been an overall increase in UK-acquired cases. The Health Protection Agency has been investigating a national outbreak of S. flexneri detected in 2011 and which is still ongoing. Cases occurred mostly in men who have sex with men and were of serotype 3a. The investigation aimed a...

Steadily increasing resistance among Shigella to beta-lactams, aminoglycosides, and tetracycline has compromised the utility of these commonly used antimicrobial agents. Also, undesirable side effects of certain antibiotics have triggered immense interest in search of alternative therapies using medicinal plants. One such medicinal plant used since ancient times to cure diarrhea is Aegle marmel...

A total of 296 Shigella spp. were received from State Public Health Laboratories, during the period from 1999 to 2004, by National Reference Laboratory for Cholera and Enteric Diseases (NRLCED)--IOC/Fiocruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The frequency of Shigella spp. was: S. flexneri (52.7%), S. sonnei (44.2%), S. boydii (2.3%), and S. dysenteriae (0.6%). The most frequent S. flexneri serovars were ...

Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus was capable of parasitizing Shigella boydii, S. flexneri, and S. sonnei. The bdellovibrio was able to produce plaques on lawns consisting of heat-killed or ultraviolet-irradiated S. boydii.

A rapid seminested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method for the specific, sensitive detection of virulent Shigella spp. in spiked environmental water samples was developed. A set of primers specific for the invasion plasmid antigen gene (ipaH) of virulent Shigella spp. and enteroinvasive Escherichia coli produced a 620-bp fragment that was used as template for the seminested primer pair delin...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare invasive and non-invasive strains of Shigella flexneri isolated from Tehran by a 120 kDa protein band by SDS-PAGE, electron microscopy of cell culture and Congo red dye methods. METHODS S. flexneri strains were isolated by standard bacterial methods from fecal specimens of children attending to the 3 children's hospitals. Phenotype analysis for ...
