First Report of Human Infection by Agromyces mediolanus, a Gram-Positive Organism Found in Soil
Siddharth Sridhar,Angela Y. M. Wang,Jasper Fuk-Woo Chan,Cyril C. Y. Yip,Susanna K. P. Lau,Patrick C. Y. Woo,Kwok-Yung Yuen +6 more
TL;DR: The first human infection by a member of the Agromyces genus, a group of Gram-positive bacteria found in soil, is reported, a patient with a long-term venous catheter developed bacteremia due to a non-vancomycin-susceptible isolate of Agromyce mediolanus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Novel Rosavirus Species That Infects Diverse Rodent Species and Causes Multisystemic Dissemination in Mouse Model.
Susanna K. P. Lau,Patrick C. Y. Woo,Kenneth S. M. Li,Haoji Zhang,Rachel Y.Y. Fan,Anna J. X. Zhang,Brandon C. C. Chan,Carol S. F. Lam,Cyril C. Y. Yip,Ming-Chi Yuen,Kwok-Hung Chan,Zhiwei Chen,Kwok-Yung Yuen +12 more
TL;DR: Two novel picornaviruses are identified from the street rat, Norway rat, and rosavirus C from five different wild rat species (chestnut spiny rat, greater bandicoot rat, Indochinese forest rat, roof rat and Coxing's white-bellied rat) in China and their pathogenicity and emergence potential are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of β-adrenoceptor antagonists on portal vein hypertension and ethanol-induced gastric mucosal damage in rats
Patrick C. Y. Woo,Chi Hin Cho +1 more
TL;DR: Propranolol, nadolol, metoprolol and labetalol are effective in reducing the portal venous pressure and ethanol‐induced gastric mucosal damage in portal hypertensive rats, but not in portal normotensive animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multilocus Sequence Analysis of Phylogroup 1 and 2 Oral Treponeme Strains.
Yong-Biao Huo,Yuki Chan,Donnabella C. Lacap-Bugler,S Mo,Patrick C. Y. Woo,W. Keung Leung,Rory M. Watt +6 more
TL;DR: One of the most comprehensive analyses of oral treponeme strains performed to date, including isolates from North America, Europe, and Asia, and shows the MLSA-based approach can be used to effectively discriminate oral trePoneme taxa, confirm taxonomic assignment, and enable the delineation of species boundaries with high confidence.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel approach for screening immunogenic proteins in Penicillium marneffei using the ΔAFMP1ΔAFMP2 deletion mutant of Aspergillus fumigatus

TL;DR: A novel immunogenic 57-kDa protein is cloned in Penicillium marneffei, which was possibly related to amino acid biosynthesis and metabolism, with homologues present only in the subphylum Pezizomycotina of Ascomycota and could be applied to immunogenic protein screening in other microorganisms for serological diagnosis, epidemiological studies and the study of vaccines.
