Klebsiella (K.) pneumoniae is a One Health pathogen that has been isolated from humans, animals, and environmental sources and is responsible for a diverse range of potentially life-threatening infections. In the present study, we analyzed the genome...

Globally, an estimated 254 million people are living with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, yet only 10.5% have been diagnosed, underscoring the urgent need to expand testing to meet the World Health Organization’s HBV elimination targ...

Aeromonas salmonicida is a predominant pathogen that infects fish. The pathogen A. salmonicida subsp. masoucida (ASM) was isolated for the first time from diseased starry flounders (Platichthys stellatus). Our study aimed to isolate, characterize, an...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent a class of non-coding RNAs. In the study of Pseudomonas putida Sneb821-induced tomato resistance to Meloidogyne incognita, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was employed to validate 12 l...

Unusual membrane-bound particles are present in the venom of the parasitoid wasps that parasitize Drosophila melanogaster. These venom particles harbor about 400 proteins and suppress the encapsulation of a wasp egg. Whereas the proteins in the...

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS), caused by infection with the SFTS virus, is an emerging fatal tick-borne zoonosis endemic to East Asia. Although SFTS is a tick-borne disease, the virus can be transmitted from animals with SFTS wit...

In recent years, resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae to the clinical last-resort drugs carbapenem and tigecycline has intensified, including Metallo-β-Lactamase-producing K. pneumoniae (MBL-KP), which demonstrated resistance to ceftazidime-aviba...

A survey was conducted to assess the impact of on-board gutting in the pouting fishery, Trisopterus luscus (L.), from the Bay of Biscay (area FAO 27.VIII) on the parasite burden of macroscopic ascaridoid nematodes, including anisakids (causing anisak...

Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) is a prion disease that affects Cervidae species, and is the only known prion disease transmitted among wildlife species. The key pathological feature is the conversion of the normal prion protein (PrPC) misfolding into...

Staphylococcus aureus is a versatile zoonotic pathogen capable of causing a wide range of infections. Due to the organism’s ability to persist, recalcitrant and recurring infections are a major concern for public and animal health. This study i...
