Complete Genome Sequence of an Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis Clinical Isolate
Here we present the complete genome sequence of Bacteroides fragilis isolate BOB25. It is an enterotoxigenic isolate that was obtained from a stool sample of a patient with dysbiosis.
متن کاملUse of lymphokines in treatment of experimental intra-abdominal abscess caused by Bacteroides fragilis.
The role of cell-free soluble factors (lymphokines) derived from mitogen-activated splenic cells of mice previously immunized against Bacteroides fragilis was evaluated in the treatment of B. fragilis intra-abdominal abscess (IAA). Neither clindamycin nor lymphokines alone were effective against an established B. fragilis IAA, but the combination of clindamycin and lymphokines decreased the abs...
متن کاملExpression of Bacteroides fragilis hemolysins in vivo and role of HlyBA in an intra-abdominal infection model
Bacteroides fragilis is the most frequent opportunistic pathogen isolated from anaerobic infections. However, there is a paucity of information regarding the genetic and molecular aspects of gene expression of its virulence factors during extra-intestinal infections. A potential virulence factor that has received little attention is the ability of B. fragilis to produce hemolysins. In this stud...
متن کاملDiversity of the metalloprotease toxin produced by enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis.
Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) strains produce a 20-kDa zinc metalloprotease toxin (BFT) associated with diarrheal disease of animals, young children, and adults. BFT stimulates secretion in intestinal loops in vivo and modifies epithelial cell morphology in vitro. The B. fragilis toxin (bft) gene from ETBF strain 86-5443-2-2 (piglet; bft-2) revealed significant nucleotide and pred...
متن کاملAbdominal hematoma in a patient with Covid-19 infection;Report a case of disease
Introduction: Coagulopathy is a relatively common problem in patients with severe Covid-19. In this study, a hospitalized patient with Covid-19 who developed an abdominal hematoma is introduced. Case Report: The patient was a 46-year-old woman who was hospitalized due to Covid-19. On the fifth day of admission, she developed abdominal pain without gastrointestinal symptoms.
