The role of bacterial interspecies communication in polymicrobial infection of the cystic fibrosis lung
There is an increasing appreciation of the polymicrobial nature of bacterial infections associated with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and of the important role for interactions in influencing bacterial virulence and response to therapy. Patients with CF are co-infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, …

HAEMOPHILUS INFLUENZAE AND MORAXELLA CATARRHALIS INTRA- AND INTERSPECIES QUORUM SIGNALING
… the most common childhood diseases worldwide. OM infections often persist for long periods of time and can be highly resistant to antibiotic treatment due in part to persistence of bacteria within biofilms. The majority of OM infections also involve coinfection by multiple species. For instance, …

A porcine model for polymicrobial respiratory infections with swine influenza virus and Staphylococcus aureus
… is further complicated by secondary bacterial infection. The emergence of highly pathogenic strains of IAV in conjunction with the increase of antibiotic-resistant bacteria threatens human health. A large-animal model effective for study of polymicrobial infection comparable to humans must …

Studies of Three Human Intestinal Opportunistic Pathogens
… well. The intestinal tract is the main area of infection for these bacteria, however some of these organisms can be involved in wound infections, septicemia, urinary tract infections, and meningitis. This study focused on three areas: 1) Analysis of differences in gene expression between …

Immunomodulation by subclinical persistent infection with Helicobacter hepaticus
Recognition of polymicrobial infections is becoming important for understanding differential host responses to environmental exposures, vaccines, as well as therapeutics. Citrobacter rodentium is a well-characterized model of infectious colitis with particular usefulness for modeling human …

Lower respiratory tract infection in sudden unexpected infant deaths
Pneumonia due to polymicrobial infection is known to increase the severity and risk of fatality among young children. A retrospective study was undertaken on Sudden Unexpected Infant Death cases occurring, between 1 May and 30 September 2009, which were admitted to a medico-legal mortuary servicing …

Marine Microbial Communities in Health and Disease: an Exploration of Marine Bacterial Associations Across Space, Time, and Potential Roles Against Pathogens in the Context of the Current Global Climate Change Scenario
… this disease is likely caused by a prokaryotic polymicrobial infection. As octocorals seem to be unaffected by the multitude of diseases threatening scleractinian corals, this dissertation also revealed that Caribbean octocorals host bacterial assemblages that appear to play an important role as …
