Inquilinus limosus in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis, Germany
We identified Inquilinus limosus, a recently described ?-proteobacterium, in sputum of 2 patients with cystic fibrosis whose respiratory tracts were persistently colonized for >9 months. We present data on the epidemiology, antimicrobial susceptibility, and molecular characteristics of I. limosus.
متن کاملDraft genome sequence of Inquilinus limosus strain MP06, a multidrug-resistant clinical isolate
The bacterium, Inquilinus limosus, with its remarkable antimicrobial multiresistant profile, has increasingly been isolated in cystic fibrosis patients. We report draft genome sequence of a strain MP06, which is of considerable interest in elucidating the associated mechanisms of antibiotic resistance in this bacterium and for an insight about its persistence in airways of these patients.
متن کاملIdentification of Inquilinus limosus in cystic fibrosis: a first report in Italy.
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder associated with a polymicrobial lung infection where classical pathogens and newly identified bacteria may interact. Inquilinus limosus is an a-proteobacterium recently isolated in the airways of cystic fibrosis patient. We report the first case in Italy of I.limosus isolation from the sputum sample of a cystic fibrosis patient. The patient is a 20-years-ol...
متن کاملCharacterization of unusual bacteria isolated from respiratory secretions of cystic fibrosis patients and description of Inquilinus limosus gen. nov., sp. nov.
Using a polyphasic approach (including cellular protein and fatty acid analysis, biochemical characterization, 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing, and DNA-DNA hybridizations), we characterized 51 bacterial isolates recovered from respiratory secretions of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Our analyses showed that 24 isolates belong to taxa that have so far not (or only rarely) been reported from CF pati...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance of mixed biofilms in cystic fibrosis: impact of emerging microorganisms on treatment of infection.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder associated with multispecies infections where interactions between classical and newly identified bacteria might be crucial to understanding the persistent colonisation in CF lungs. This study investigated the interactions between two emerging species, Inquilinus limosus and Dolosigranulum pigrum, and the conventional CF pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa...
متن کاملInsights into Cystic Fibrosis Polymicrobial Consortia: The Role of Species Interactions in Biofilm Development, Phenotype, and Response to In-Use Antibiotics
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) airways disease involves complex polymicrobial infections where different bacterial species can interact and influence each other and/or even interfere with the whole community. To gain insights into the role that interactions between Pseudomonas aeruginosa in co-culture with Staphylococcus aureus, Inquilinus limosus, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia may play in infection, ...
