Prevotella Denticola Spondylitis
We report a case of a 75 year-old man who was diagnosed with a L3-L4 spondylitis with psoas abscess documented at Prevotella denticola. However, the dental origin of the bacteria, the presence of the spondylitis, and the identification on an aneurysm of the inter-atrial septum with a patent oval foramen and finally the metabolic activity of the aortic valve and teeth revealed by 18FFDG PET/ CT ...
متن کاملPrevotella intermedia and Prevotella nigrescens serotypes, ribotypes and binding characteristics.
Type strains and 62 clinical isolates of Prevotella intermedia and Prevotella nigrescens were typed with the use of genomic DNA fingerprints and rRNA gene probes. The strains were further serotyped with monoclonal antibodies and characterized with SDS-PAGE, enzymatic activities, hemolysis and hemagglutination and coaggregation with Streptococcus and Actinomyces spp. P. intermedia and P. nigresc...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of a Prevotella melaninogenica hemolysin.
Hemolysins have been proven to be important virulence factors in many medically relevant pathogenic organisms. Their production has also been implicated in the etiology of periodontal disease. Hemolytic strain 361B of Prevotella melaninogenica, a putative etiologic agent of periodontal disease, was used in this study. The cloning, sequencing, and characterization of phyA, the structural gene fo...
متن کاملBacteremic skin and soft tissue infection caused by Prevotella loescheii
BACKGROUND Anaerobes are a major component of gut flora. They play an important role in the pathogenesis of infections resulting from breaches in mucus membranes. Because of the difficulties in cultivating and identifying it, their role continues to be undermined. The purpose of this paper is to report a case of Prevotella loescheii bacteremic skin and soft tissue infection and review the liter...
متن کاملDegradation of native human hemoglobin following hemolysis by Prevotella loescheii.
Prevotella loescheii PK1295 can grow on native hemoglobin as a source of heme. Supernatants of P. loescheii cultures hemolysed human erythrocytes and degraded native hemoglobin. These combined activities may provide heme (or iron) for the growth of P. loescheii and other dental plaque bacteria.
