Polyamines of the four families and the five related genera within the gamma subclass of the class Proteobacteria were analyzed by HPLC with the objective of developing a chemotaxonomic system. The production of putrescine, diaminopropane, cadaverine, and agmatine are not exactly correlated to the phylogenetic genospecies within 36 strains of the genus Aeromonas (the family Aeromonadaceae) lacking in triamines. The occurrence of norspermidine was limited but not ubiquitous within the family Vibrionaceae, including 20 strains of Vibrio, Listonella, Photobacterium, and Salinivibrio. Spermidine was not substituted for the absence of norspermidine in the family. Agmatine was detected only in Photobacterium. Salinivibrio and some strains of Vibrio were devoid of polyamines. Vibrio ("Moritella") marinus contained cadaverine. Within the family Pasteurellaceae, Haemophilus contained cadaverine only and Actinobacillus contained no polyamine. Halomonas, Chromohalobacter, and Zymobacter, belonging to the family Halomonadaceae, ubiquitously contained spermidine and sporadically cadaverine and agmatine. Shewanella contained putrescine and cadaverine; Alteromonas macleodii, putrescine, 2-hydroxyputrescine, cadaverine, 2-hydroxyspermidine, and spermidine; Pseudoalteromonas, putrescine, cadaverine, and spermidine; Marinobacter, spermidine; and Marinomonas, putrescine and spermidine. Their polyamine profiles serve as a chemotaxonomic marker within the gamma subclass.

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an acquired autoimmune bullous disease that often occurs in elderly patients. Some BP patients with early age of disease onset were observed to have difficulty in receiving applicable disease control. It remains challenging for clinicians to choose the appropriate treatment for these patients.

Symbiotic microbiota significantly influence the development, physiology, and behavior of their hosts, and therefore, they are widely studied. However, very few studies have investigated the changes in symbiotic microbiota across generations. originating from the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau were cultured through seven generations in our laboratory, and the symbiotic microbiota of were sequenced using a 16S rRNA amplicon to analyze changes in the structure and functional properties of the symbiotic microbiota of from a harsh environment to an ideal environment.

The biological pathways connecting ambient fine particulate matter (PM)-induced initial adverse effects to the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases are not fully understood. We hypothesize that lysoglycerophospholipids (LysoGPLs) are pivotal mediators of atherosclerosis induced by exposure to PM. This study investigated the changes of LysoGPLs in response to PM exposure and the mediation role of LysoGPLs in the pro-atherosclerotic effects of PM exposure.

Leptospirosis is a worldwide zoonotic disease caused by pathogenic spp, often occurring in tropical and subtropical regions. Focusing on development of rapid diagnostic methods to facilitate early diagnosis and a universal vaccine are the main critical issues to overcome the burden of leptospirosis. Here, we have studied the immunogenic potential of prepared recombinant Loa22 protein (rLoa22) of local pathogenic species in mice and its ability to induce humoral and cellular immunity, being further evaluated by analyzing the immunoglobulin G (IgG) subclasses and cytokines produced through immunization.

Interferon (IFN) induced activities are critical, early determinants of immune responses and infection outcomes. A key facet of IFN responses is the upregulation of hundreds of mRNAs termed interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) that activate intrinsic and cell-mediated defenses. While primary interferon signaling is well-delineated, other layers of regulation are less explored but implied by aberrant ISG expression signatures in many diseases in the absence of infection.
