Journal ArticleDOI

Cytotoxin-associated gene A and vacuolating cytotoxin A in human isolates of Helicobacter pylori and their association with the clinical status of ulcer disease.

TL;DR: The data indicate that the active ulcer status is more strongly associated with H. pylori strains carrying the pathogenicity island (PAI) than remission status, and support the hypothesis that a dynamic equilibrium exists among bacterial populations with or without the PAI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complete Genome Sequence of KPC-3- and CTX-M-15-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Sequence Type 307

TL;DR: Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence type (ST) 307, carrying blaKPC-3, blaCTX-M-15, blAOXA-1, aac(6′)-Ib-cr, and qnrB1 genes, is replacing the predominant hyperepidemic ST258 clone in Italy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction of the heat-shock response by antiviral prostaglandins in human cells infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1

TL;DR: It is reported that HIV-1 infection does not alter HSF activation by PGA1, whereas it causes an increase in intracellular HSP 70 mRNA levels, as a result of enhanced HSP70 mRNA stability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular epidemiology of NDM-5-producing Escherichia coli high-risk clones identified in two Italian hospitals in 2017-2019.

TL;DR: An application of genomics is described as a useful method to discern endemic and outbreak clones when applied to strains of the same species (E. coli) with the same resistance determinant (NDM-5) and the relevance of screening patients admitted in critical units for carbapenemase producers to prevent outbreaks.
