S. enterica isolates (n = 78) obtained from the vegetable supply chain (farms, distribution centers, markets) in two Cambodian provinces (Siem Reap, Battambang) were sequenced and analyzed. In silico identification of serotypes and detection of antimicrobial resistance genes was performed using SISTR and ABRicate, respectively. Isolates' relatedness was assessed based on high-quality single nucleotide polymorphisms (hqSNPs) identified within each serotype using the CFSAN SNP pipeline. Among 29 detected serotypes, Paratyphi B var. Java was most abundant (n=14), followed by Hvittingfoss (n=11) and Thompson (n=7). Paratyphi B var. Java was mostly found in farms (n=5) and markets (n=6), Hvittingfoss within distribution centers (n=8), and Thompson at markets (n=4) and farms (n=3). Among Paratyphi B var. Java isolates, one phylogenetic clade contained four closely related isolates (0-1 SNP difference), collected at markets in different provinces on different days. Another clade contained two isolates that differed by one SNP, one obtained from a Battambang farm and a Siem Reap distribution center, suggesting a broad spread of Paratyphi B var. Java in the Cambodian vegetable supply chain. Hvittingfoss isolates clustered in two clades; one contained five identical isolates, four of which were obtained in different months from the distribution center and a farm in Battambang, suggesting possible transmission among supply chain stages. The second clade contained three isolates from the Battambang distribution center that differed by 0-1 SNP and were isolated in October and November, suggesting possible persistence. Lastly, among 78 analyzed isolates, 14 carried antimicrobial resistance genes and seven out of these 14 carried genes with predicted resistance to more than three classes of antibiotics. Overall, highly similar isolates of Salmonella were identified over time and at different supply chain stages, suggesting the persistence and transmission of Salmonella within and between supply chain stages.

The rise of social media has enabled unrestricted information sharing, regardless of its accuracy. Unfortunately, this has also resulted in the widespread dissemination of misinformation. This study aims to provide a comprehensive scientometric analysis under the PRISMA paradigm to clarify the repetitive trajectory of misinformation on social media in the current digital age.

Mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid alterations in primary sclerosing cholangitis.

Scand J Gastroenterol

Norwegian PSC Research Centre, Department of Transplantation Medicine, Division of Surgery, Inflammatory Diseases and Transplantation, Oslo University Hospital Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway.

Objectives: Indications of mitochondrial dysfunction are commonly seen in liver diseases, but data are scarce in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Analyzing circulating and liver-resident molecules indirectly reflecting mitochondrial dysfunction, we aimed to comprehensively characterize this deficit in PSC, and whether this was PSC specific or associated with cholestasis.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively included plasma from 191 non-transplant patients with large-duct PSC and 100 healthy controls and explanted liver tissue extracts from 24 PSC patients and 18 non-cholestatic liver disease controls.

Fungal highly reducing polyketide synthases (hrPKSs) are remarkable multidomain enzymes that catalyse the biosynthesis of a diverse range of structurally complex compounds. During biosynthesis, the ketosynthase (KS) and acyltransferase (AT) domains of the condensing region are visited by the acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain during every cycle, catalysing chain priming and elongation reactions. Despite their significance, our comprehension of how these steps contribute to biosynthetic fidelity remains poorly understood.

The role of mitochondria in aging, cell death, and tumor immunity.

Mitochondria are essential double-membrane organelles with intricate structures and diverse functions within cells. Under normal physiological conditions, mitochondria regulate cellular metabolism and maintain energy homeostasis via the electron transport chain, mediate stem cell fate, and modulate reactive oxygen species production, playing a pivotal role in energy supply and lifespan extension. However, mitochondrial dysfunction can lead to various pathological changes, including cellular aging, necrosis, dysregulated tumor immunity, and the initiation and progression of cancer.
