Characteristics of antimicrobial resistance in <i>Escherichia coli</i> isolated from retail meat products in North Carolina

PLOS ONE, 19(1).

By: M. Aworh n, S. Thakur n, C. Gensler n, E. Harrell n, L. Harden n, P. Fedorka-Cray n, M. Jacob n

TL;DR: The lack of an association between MDR E. coli in retail meat and antibiotic use claim, including those with no indication of antimicrobial use, suggests that additional research is required to understand the origin of resistance. (via Semantic Scholar)

Multidrug resistance and virulence genes carried by mobile genomic elements in Salmonella enterica isolated from live food animals, processed, and retail meat in North Carolina, 2018-2019

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD MICROBIOLOGY, 378.

By: D. Hull n, E. Harrell n, L. Harden n & S. Thakur n

author keywords: Whole-genome sequencing; Plasmid assembly; Bioinformatics; Pathogen fitness; Food safety
MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Cattle; Drug Resistance, Multiple, Bacterial / genetics; Genomics; Humans; Meat; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; North Carolina; Plasmids; Poultry; Salmonella Infections; Salmonella enterica; Swine; Virulence / genetics; Virulence Factors / genetics
TL;DR: Plasmid-mediated virulence factors also appear to provide a fitness advantage, as the dominant S. enterica serotype Kentucky in chicken retail meat held the greatest diversity of plasmID-mediated colicin virulence genes which are often upregulated by environmental stressors and confer a competitive advantage.

Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha-Induced Interleukin-1 Alpha Synthesis and Cell Death Is Increased in Mouse Epithelial Cells Infected With Chlamydia muridarum

JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES, 224, S47–S55.

By: U. Nagarajan*, C. Cho*, C. Gyorke*, S. Nagarajan*, J. Ezzell, H. Brochu n, I. Huntress n, E. Harrell n, X. Peng n

author keywords: Chlamydia muridarum; IL-1 alpha; mouse epithelial cells; mouse model; TNF alpha
MeSH headings : Animals; Cell Death; Chlamydia Infections / immunology; Chlamydia Infections / metabolism; Chlamydia muridarum / immunology; Epithelial Cells; Female; Interleukin-1alpha / immunology; Interleukin-1alpha / metabolism; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha / immunology; Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha / metabolism
TL;DR: The results suggest TNFα and IL-1α enhance each other's downstream effects resulting in a hyperinflammatory response to chlamydial infection and propose that biologics targeting TNF-induced IL- 1α synthesis could be used to mitigate tissue damage during chlamYDial infection.
