Abstract To investigate antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), conjugative plasmids, and virulence genes in Swedish waterborne Escherichia spp., water samples were collected from urban freshwater and Baltic Sea beaches and ...

A 5-year-old female presented at age 2 with recurrent respiratory and ear infections, aphthous ulcers, and severe neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count [ANC] = 400 cells/mcl). Immunological testing at age 4 showed neutr...

Abstract Background Carbapenem-resistant Citrobacter freundii is increasingly reported and recognized as an opportunistic host of mobile carbapenemase-encoding elements in healthcare-associated settings. However, lineage...

Abstract Background The emergence of tmexCD-toprJ, a plasmid-mediated resistance-nodulation-division efflux pump gene cluster conferring resistance to tigecycline, poses a critical public health threat. While its prevale...

Abstract We present the complete genome sequence of Sphingomonas sp. gentR, a strain exhibiting high-level resistance to gentamicin (MIC = 40 mg/mL). The genome was assembled from hybrid Illumina and Nanopore seque...

The World Health Organization has identified ST23 carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-hvKP) as a critical public health threat. Through China’s national surveillance system (BRICS), we identifi...

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance and emergence of MDR and XDR Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhi is a major threat in Pakistan. Failure of treatment with conventional antibiotics leads to importance of ex...

Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) such as bacteriophages and plasmids profoundly shape microbial community structure and drive horizontal gene transfer across ecosystems. Wastewater treatment systems, with their high cell d...

Abstract Carbapenemase-producing Acinetobacter baumannii (CP-Ab) is a critical priority pathogen. Between October 2019 and September 2020, a multicentre study was conducted at four Ethiopian hospitals: Tikur Anbessa and ...

Abstract Objective Tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells play a key role as “immune sentinels” in mucosal immune protection. However, the molecular regulatory mechanisms underlying the formation and long-term resid...

Abstract Background Vascular calcification is a major pathological process driving cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, yet effective therapies are lacking. This study aims to identify novel causal plasma proteins and...

Abstract Background The global rise of multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales, particularly extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)- and carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, poses a critical ...

Objective Acinetobacter baumannii, a prevalent multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogen, poses a significant threat to critically ill patients. This work aims to analyze the genomes of eight clinical carbapenem-resistant A. ba...
