Purpose: The ST167 clone is the globally dominant ST among extraintestinal pathogenic (ExPEC) and is frequently associated with carbapenem resistance. This study reports genomic characterization of a pandrug-resistant ST167 isolate (ECO3183) and the possibility of the type strains' transmission.
Materials And Methods: Antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed using disk diffusion and the VITEK 2 automated system. The ECO3183 genome was sequenced. We used the genome to analyze the phylogenetic relationship, phylogenetic group, sequence type (ST), acquired antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), IS elements, genomics islands, the replicon type and transferability of the plasmids. The conjugative transfer of plasmids was assessed using filter mating experiments.
Results: ECO3183 contained a 4.87-Mb chromosome and two plasmids [pECO3183-1 (167.63 Kb) and pECO3183-2 (46.16 Kb)]. It belonged to phylogenetic group A, clonal complex 10 (CC10), and ST167. ECO3183 is a pandrug-resistant strain nonsusceptible to 24 tested antimicrobials representing 8 different antimicrobial classes. Among 55 isolates phylogenetically related to ECO3183, 47% (26/55) were from humans, while 35% (19/55) were from animals. Further analysis revealed that among 1140 ST167 isolates (in the EnteroBase database), 4% (47/1140) originated from environments, 17% (192/1140) were isolated from humans, and 78% (890/1140) were obtained from animals. The pECO3183-1 contained two identical repeats of a 9633 bp region (IS6100--IS26) and a 17.88-kb resistance island (-IS26--IS26-(A)--ΔISVsa3-IS26--IS26-(A)), and these three regions contained most of ECO3183 carrying ARGs. It was identified as a conjugative plasmid, which confers MDR resistance and has the potential to spread.
Conclusion: ECO3183 exhibited pandrug-resistance phenotype that was mediated by pECO3183-1 carrying MDR ARGs and pECO3183-2 carrying . Source analysis of strains indicated that ST167 might be transmitted between species from animals to humans, which needs continued monitoring.

Imaging-based spatial transcriptomics (iST), such as MERFISH, CosMx SMI, and Xenium, quantify gene expression level across cells in space, but more importantly, they directly reveal the subcellular distribution of RNA transcripts at the single-molecule resolution. The subcellular localization of RNA molecules plays a crucial role in the compartmentalization-dependent regulation of genes within individual cells. Understanding the intracellular spatial distribution of RNA for a particular cell type thus not only improves the characterization of cell identity but also is of paramount importance in elucidating unique subcellular regulatory mechanisms specific to the cell type.

In this study, spatial and single-cell transcriptome techniques were used to investigate the role of beta-galactoside alpha-2,6-sialyltransferase 1 (ST6GAL1) in promoting peritoneal metastasis in ovarian cancer epithelial cells. We collected single-cell transcriptomic (GSE130000) and spatial transcriptomic datasets (GSE211956) from the Gene Expression Omnibus and RNA-sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. The Robust Cell Type Decomposition (RCTD) approach was implemented to integrate spatial and single-cell transcriptomic data.

This study aimed to characterize Salmonella and Yersinia enterocolitica detected in fattening pigs in Sardinia, examining genetic similarity and antimicrobial resistance of isolates from farms and slaughterhouses and evaluating carcass hygiene. Environmental samples were collected from six pig farms, and the same pigs were also sampled at the slaughterhouses. Palatine tonsils, mesenteric lymph nodes, colon content, and carcass surface samples were collected and tested for Salmonella and Y.
