Actinomyces naeslundii: An Uncommon Cause of Endocarditis
Actinomyces rarely causes endocarditis with 25 well-described cases reported in the literature in the past 75 years. We present a case of prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE) caused by Actinomyces naeslundii. To our knowledge, this is the first report in the literature of endocarditis due to this organism and the second report of PVE caused by Actinomyces.
متن کاملHemolytic anemia due to native valve subacute endocarditis with Actinomyces israelii infection
This case highlights the importance of considering infectious etiology in the management of hemolytic anemia. Hemolytic anemia associated with infectious endocarditis is rare. Actinomyces endocarditis is a rare occurrence and is very challenging to diagnose given the challenges to culture the organism.
متن کاملThe Absorption and Excretion of Streptomycin in Human Chronic Typhoid Carriers.
Streptomycin,l an antibiotic agent produced by the growth of Actinomyces griseus, has been shown to inhibit the growth of gram negative bacilli both in vitro (1 to 5) and in animals (2, 3, 6 to 9). Preliminary data on the absorption and excretion of this drug were obtained in a patient suffering from acute bacterial endocarditis due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the first human patient treated wit...

متن کاملCharacterization of the fructosyltransferase gene of Actinomyces naeslundii WVU45.
Oral actinomycetes produce fructosyltransferase (FTF) enzymes which convert sucrose into polymers of D-fructose, known as levans, and these polymers are thought to contribute to the persistence and virulence of the organisms. A gene encoding FTF was isolated from Actinomyces naeslundii WVU45; the deduced amino acid sequence showed significant similarity to known levansucrases of gram-negative e...
