Moraxella Catarrhalis peritonitis
BACKGROUND Peritonitis continues to be a major complication of peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis patients. Recent advances in connectology and better patient training have decreased the incidence of peritonitis in the last two decades. Peritonitis in PD patients is usually due to gram positive and less often due to gram negative organisms. Herein we report a case of peritonitis due to Moraxell...

متن کاملIndirect Pathogenicity of Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in Polymicrobial Otitis Media Occurs via Interspecies Quorum Signaling
Otitis media (OM) is among the leading diseases of childhood and is caused by opportunists that reside within the nasopharynx, such as Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis. As with most airway infections, it is now clear that OM infections involve multiple organisms. This study addresses the hypothesis that polymicrobial infection alters the course, severity, and/or treatability of ...
متن کاملPathogenesis of Polymicrobial Biofilms
In polymicrobial biofilms a high level of interspecies interactions occur with often detrimental effect to the host. Many chronic infections are attributed to polymicrobial biofilms which tend to exhibit increased resistance to antimicrobial therapy. Yet despite the gravity of such infections, areas of study in polymicrobial diseases are in their infancy. Thus, much work is needed to promote a ...
متن کاملMoraxella catarrhalis expresses an unusual Hfq protein.
The Hfq protein is recognized as a global regulatory molecule that facilitates certain RNA-RNA interactions in bacteria. BLAST analysis identified a 630-nucleotide open reading frame in the genome of Moraxella catarrhalis ATCC 43617 that was highly conserved among M. catarrhalis strains and which encoded a predicted protein with significant homology to the Hfq protein of Escherichia coli. This ...
