The present study evaluated the isolates obtained from various origins in Iran. strains previously recovered and stored in the veterinary microbiology laboratory were serotyped and subjected to antibiotic susceptibility test, detection of the virulence and resistance genes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and genotyping by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-polymerase chain reaction (ERIC-PCR). All isolates showed resistance to erythromycin and the most resistance rates were detected for trimethoprim (86.66%), ampicillin (75.00%), and sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (63.33%), respectively. In total, 86.33% of the isolates were known as multi-drug resistant and none of the isolates showed resistance to cefepime, nalidixic acid, imipenem, ceftriaxone, and polymyxin B. The virulence genes, , , and besides the resistance gene were identified in all 60 strains. The most prevalent resistance genes were respectively (70.00%), (58.33%), and (55.00%). Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between serotypes associated with the resistance gene. In ERIC-PCR analysis, 14 distinct clusters were obtained. Statistically, there were significant relationships between the source and ERIC's genomic pattern and between the serotype of isolates and genotypic pattern of ERIC. According to the results, serotypes from non-human sources had considerable resistance to different antibiotics and carried significant virulence determinants and resistance genes. In addition, ERIC-PCR showed relevant results in discriminating serotypes from other sources.

This study aimed to identify splicing quantitative trait loci (cis-sQTL) in Nelore cattle muscle tissue and explore the involvement of spliced genes (sGenes) in immune system-related biological processes. Genotypic data from 80 intact male Nelore cattle were obtained using SNP-Chip technology, while RNA-Seq analysis was performed to measure gene expression levels, enabling the integration of genomic and transcriptomic datasets. The normalized expression levels of spliced transcripts were associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) through an analysis of variance using an additive linear model with the MatrixEQTL package.

Some patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) possess germline or acquired defects in the DNA damage repair (DDR) genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. Tumors with BRCA mutations exhibit sensitivity to poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) such as olaparib and rucaparib. As a result, molecular diagnostic testing to identify patients with BRCA mutations eligible for the PARPi therapy has become an integral component of managing patients with mCRPC.

The study was conducted to detect the occurrence and phenotypic resistance pattern of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in livestock using docking based analysis to reveal the classes of antibiotics against which ESBL-producers are active. Rectal swabs from healthy cattle (n=100), goats (n=88), pigs (n=66) were collected from backyard farms in Andaman and Nicober island (India). In total, 304 isolates comprising E.

MRSA's resistance poses a global health challenge. This study investigates lysine succinylation in MRSA using proteomics and bioinformatics approaches to uncover metabolic and virulence mechanisms, with the goal of identifying novel therapeutic targets. Mass spectrometry and bioinformatics analyses mapped the MRSA succinylome, identifying 8 048 succinylation sites on 1 210 proteins.
