() is an opportunistic foodborne pathogen that causes listeriosis in humans and animals, reaching up to 30% case mortality. There are only a few reports in Mexico about the strains found in various foods. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of , serogroups, virulence genes, and antimicrobial resistance in different foods from Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico.

is a traditional Mexican medicinal plant and is an important source of secondary metabolites with antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity. The aim of this work was to conduct a comparative analysis of secondary metabolites of different roots and leaf extracts of from two zones in Mexico using ultraperformance liquid chromatography (UPLC) and gas chromatography (GC) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS). Twelve secondary metabolites from roots were identified in the leaves.

Article Synopsis
  • * This study analyzed multidrug-resistant strains from human urine, retail meat, and river water in northern Tamaulipas, Mexico, focusing on their antimicrobial susceptibility and whole genome sequencing.
  • * Findings revealed several ARGs, various plasmid replicons, and linked insertion sequences associated with resistance and virulence, underscoring the strains' significant pathogenic potential and the urgency for ongoing monitoring.

Introduction: Fetal and postnatal hypertrophy develop in response to such different exposures or illnesses the mother suffers during gestation as anti-infectious and physical agents, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and even advanced maternal age. This gives rise to high comorbidities in the newborn; therefore, looking for alternatives that contribute to cardiac homeostasis is quite necessary to inhibit the overgrowth of myocytes. Boron-derivative compounds could play a key role in exerting a repairing effect on chronic cardiac damage induced during gestation.
