Journal ArticleDOI

Towards Understanding MCR-like Colistin Resistance

TL;DR: These studies provide a basic framework for understanding the molecular epidemiology and resistance mechanism of MCR-like genes and further large-scale epidemiological and functional studies are urgently needed to better understand the biology of this clinically important antibiotic resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Streptococcus suis infection: An emerging/reemerging challenge of bacterial infectious diseases?

TL;DR: An updated overview of this pathogen from the perspective of molecular epidemiology, clinical diagnosis and typing, virulence mechanism, and protective antigens contributing to its zoonosis is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuromolecular responses to social challenge: Common mechanisms across mouse, stickleback fish, and honey bee

TL;DR: Support is provided for conserved genetic “toolkits” that are used in independent evolutions of the response to social challenge in diverse taxa by determining whether shared neuromolecular mechanisms could underlie behavioral response to territory intrusion across species spanning a broad phylogenetic range.
Journal ArticleDOI

Streptococcus suis enolase functions as a protective antigen displayed on the bacterial cell surface.

TL;DR: It is concluded that S. suis enolase functions as a protective antigen displayed on the bacterial cell surface and that it can be used to develop new strategies to combat SS2 infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uncovering newly emerging variants of Streptococcus suis, an important zoonotic agent.

TL;DR: An extensive, collaborative study on Chinese SS2 variants, which exhibit strong invasiveness and high pathogenicicity, has resulted in the description of a new disease form of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) and a putative pathogenicity island (termed 89K).
