AI Article Synopsis
- - The study examines ctxB allele variants of Vibrio cholerae O1 collected in Odisha, India, from 1995 to 2019.
- - From 1995 to 2016, ctxB1 genotypes were the most prevalent, while the Haitian variant and El Tor ctxB3 genotypes emerged later, peaking in 2018-2019 and 2005-2011, respectively.
- - The ctxB7 genotype of the Haitian variant was largely inactive between 2000 and 2006 but began to spread significantly from 2007 to 2019.
Article Abstract
This study reports variants of the ctxB allele of Vibrio cholerae O1 isolated between 1995 and 2019 in Odisha, India. ctxB1 genotypes dominated from 1995 to 2016. The Haitian variant and El Tor ctxB3 genotypes of V. cholerae O1 emerged in 1999, and were most common in 2018-2019 and 2005-2011, respectively. The ctxB7 genotype of the Haitian variant of V. cholerae O1 was quiescent from 2000 to 2006, but further spread was noted from 2007 to 2019.

Non-O1/non-O139 (NOVC) strains inhabit aquatic environments and sporadically induce human illnesses. This study involved the virulence and antimicrobial genetic characterization of 176 NOVC strains, comprising 25 from clinical samples and 151 from environmental sources, collected between 2021 and 2023. The antimicrobial susceptibility of the examined NOVC population was predominantly high, exhibiting only poor susceptibility to colistin, with 89.

Infections by non-O1/non-O139 serogroups of Vibrio cholerae (NOVC) are increasing worldwide. Infected patients usually display self-limiting diarrhoea or external ear and wound infections. We present a rare case of bacteraemia secondary to NOVC infection.

Objective: Multiple-Locus Variable Number of Tandem Repeats (VNTR) Analysis (MLVA) is widely used to subtype pathogens causing foodborne and waterborne disease outbreaks. The MLVAType shiny application was previously designed to extract MLVA profiles of Vibrio cholerae isolates from whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data, and provide backward compatibility with traditional MLVA typing methods. The previous development and validation work was conducted using short (pair-end 300 and 150 nt long) reads from Illumina MiSeq and Hiseq sequencing.

Bacterial pathogens possess a remarkable capacity to sense and adapt to ever-changing environments. For example, Vibrio cholerae, the causative agent of the severe diarrheal disease cholera, thrives in aquatic ecosystems and human hosts through dynamic survival strategies. In this study, we investigated the role of three photolyases, enzymes that repair DNA damage caused by exposure to UV radiation and blue light, in the environmental survival of V.

Despite major efforts toward its eradication, cholera remains a major health threat and economic burden in many low- and middle-income countries. Between outbreaks, the bacterium responsible for the disease, , survives in aquatic environmental reservoirs, where it commonly forms biofilms, for example, on zooplankton. -acetyl glucosamine-binding protein A (GbpA) is an adhesin that binds to the chitinaceous surface of zooplankton and breaks its dense crystalline packing thanks to its lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) activity, which provides with nutrients.
