Overview
Predicting Phenotypic Polymyxin Resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae through Machine Learning Analysis of Genomic Data.
The study identifies several genes associated with polymyxin resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae using machine learning analysis of genomic data, including known resistance determinants and potential novel genes.
Metagenomic Analysis Reveals A Possible Association Between Respiratory Infection and Periodontitis.
The study identifies several antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and virulence genes (VirGs) associated with periodontitis, suggesting a potential link between periodontitis and respiratory infection. Key ARGs include macB, mexD, cpxR, and pgpB, which show signs of positive selection in periodontitis patients.
The oral microbiota is a reservoir for antimicrobial resistance: resistome and phenotypic resistance characteristics of oral biofilm in health, caries, and periodontitis.
The study identified various antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in the oral microbiota, including mefA, msrD, ermB, ermF, cfxA, blaCSP(1), tetM, tetQ, and pgpB, which confer resistance to antibiotics such as erythromycin, azithromycin, penicillin, ampicillin, tetracycline, and colistin. These genes were found in multiple bacterial species and were associated with different resistotypes in healthy, caries, and periodontitis groups.
