© 2017 Céspedes, Saitz, Del Canto, De la Fuente, Quera, Hermoso, Muñoz, Ginard, Khorrami, Girón, Assar, Rosselló-Mora and Vidal. Adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) strains are genetically variable and virulence ...
First genome sequence of Chilean Brucella canis SCL strain provides insights on the epidemiology and virulence factors, explaining differences between geographical origins
(Elsevier, 2021)
Background: Brucella canis is the etiological agent of canine brucellosis, a worldwide neglected zoonosis that constitutes one of the major infectious causes of infertility and reproductive failure in dogs. Although genomic ...
Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of virulence factors and susceptibility to antibiotics in Salmonella Infantis strains isolated from Chicken meat: First findings in Chile
(MDPI, 2020)
Salmonella Infantis is a zoonotic pathogen that causes gastroenteritis in humans and animals,
with poultry being its main reservoir. In Chile, there are no data to characterize S. Infantis strains
in poultry production. ...
The Role of the Flagellar Protein FlgJ in the Virulence of Brucella abortus
(2020)
Brucella abortus is a facultative intracellular pathogen that causes a zoonosis called brucellosis. This disease leads to abortion and infertility in cattle, and diverse complications in humans. B. abortus is a successful ...
Virulence factors and immune evasion in Trypanosoma cruzi
(Bentham Sciences PublishersBentham Sciences Publishers, 2017)
Among the pathogens that have developed a variety of strategies to overcome the host immune system, is the causative agent of Chagas disease, Trypanosoma cruzi. During a long co-evolution process, the parasite has learned ...

(Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Ministério da Saúde, 2000-01-01)
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli is an important cause of traveler's diarrhea and diarrheal illnesses in children in the developing world. In this presentation we will focus on the main virulence attributes of this pathogenic ...
Fitness and virulence costs of Candida albicans FKS1 hot spot mutations associated with echinocandin resistance
(University of Chicago Press, 2011-08)
The identification of FKS1 mutations in Candida albicans associated with echinocandin resistance has raised concerns over the spread of drug-resistant strains. We studied the impact of fks1 mutations on C. albicans virulence ...
Cellulitis-related Rhodococcus equi in a cat harboring VAPA-type plasmid pattern
(2021-11-01)
Rhodococcus equi is a well-known intracellular facultative bacterium that is opportunistic in nature, and a contagious disease-causing agent of pyogranulomatous infections in humans and multihost animals. Feline rhodococcosis ...
Enterococcus species in the oral cavity: Prevalence, virulence factors and antimicrobial susceptibility
(2016-09-01)
Enterococci are considered as transient constituent components of the oral microbiome that may cause a variety of oral and systemic infections. As there is sparse data on the oral enterococcal prevalence, we evaluated the ...
