Influence of sire breed on the interplay among rumen microbial populations inhabiting the rumen liquid of the progeny in beef cattle
Download2013
Guan, L. L., Wang, Z., Zhou, M., Goonewardene, L. A., Moore, S. S., Hernandez-Sanabria, E.
This study aimed to evaluate whether the host genetic background impact the ruminal microbial communities of the progeny of sires from three different breeds under different diets. Eighty five bacterial and twenty eight methanogen phylotypes from 49 individuals of diverging sire breed (Angus,...

Initial gut microbial composition as a key factor driving host response to antibiotic treatment, as exemplified by the presence or absence of commensal Escherichia coli

Ju, Tingting, Shoblak, Yasmeen, Gao, Yanhua, Yang, Kaiyuan, Fouhse, Janelle, Finlay, B. Brett, So, Yee Wing, Stothard, Paul, Willing, Ben P.
Antibiotics are important for treating bacterial infection; however, efficacies and side effects of antibiotics vary in medicine and experimental models. A few studies have correlated microbiota composition variations with health outcomes in response to antibiotics; however, no study has...

Ketabi, Ali, Baracos, Vickie E., Field, Catherine J., Lin, Xiaoxi, Xue, Hongyu, Bibova, Ilona, Gänzle, Michael G., Dieleman, Levinus A., Sawyer, Michael B.
Intestinal microbiota mediate toxicity of irinotecan (CPT-11) cancer therapies and cause systemic infection after CPT-11-induced loss of barrier function. The intestinal microbiota and their functions are thus potential targets for treatment to mitigate CPT-11 toxicity. However, microbiota...

Lactobacillus reuteri maintains a functional mucosal barrier during DSS treatment despite mucus layer dysfunction
Download2012
Rang, Sara, Roos, Stefan, Phillipson, Mia, Holm, Lena, Dicksved, Johan, Willing, Ben P., Petersson, Joel, Schreiber, Olof
Treatment with the probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus reuteri has been shown to prevent dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis in rats. This is partly due to reduced P-selectin-dependent leukocyte- and platelet-endothelial cell interactions, however, the mechanism behind this protective...

Multilocus sequence typing analysis of Clostridium perfringens isolates from necrotic enteritis outbreaks in broiler chickens
Download2008
Jiang, Y. F., Hunter, D. B., Parreira, V. R., Bruce, H. L., Kulkarni, R. R., Prescott, J. F., Chalmers, G., Boerlin, P.
Clostridium perfringens is an important pathogen of animals and humans and is the causative agent of necrotic enteritis (NE) in poultry. This study focuses on the typing of intestinal C. perfringens isolates (n 61) from outbreaks of NE collected from several areas of Southern Ontario, using a...

Necrotic enteritis potential in a model system using Clostridium perfringens isolated from field outbreaks
Download2007
Bruce, Heather L., Boerlin, Patrick, Barnum, Donald A., Toole, Denise L., Chalmers, Gabhan
Necrotic enteritis is an enteric disease of avian species caused by the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium perfringens. The disease is regularly controlled in the broiler chicken industry with antimicrobials in feed but is reemerging in areas such as Europe where there is a ban on antimicrobials as...

Neutrophil elastase alters the murine gut mirobiota resulting in enhanced Salmonella colonization
Download2012
Hartmann, Martin, Sekirov, Inna, Finlay, B. Brett, Al-Zahrani, Fatimah, Willing, Benjamin P., Ferreira, Rosana B. R., Gill, Navkiran, Antunes, L. Caetano M.
The intestinal microbiota has been found to play a central role in the colonization of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in the gastrointestinal tract. In this study, we present a novel process through which Salmonella benefit from inflammatory induced changes in the microbiota in order to...

Potential regulatory role of microRNAs in the development of bovine gastrointestinal tract during early life

Liang, Guanxiang, Bao, Hua, Guan, Leluo, Griebel, Philip J., Stothard, Paul, McFadden, Thomas B., Malmuthuge, Nilusha
This study aimed to investigate the potential regulatory role of miRNAs in the development of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) during the early life of dairy calves. Rumen and small intestinal (mid-jejunum and ileum) tissue samples were collected from newborn (30 min after birth; n = 3), 7-day-old...

Melim, Leslie A., Northup. Diana E., Spilde, Michael N., Jones, Brian, Boston, Penelope J., Bixby, Rebecca J.
We report on a reticulated filament found in modern and fossil cave samples that cannot be correlated to any known microorganism or organism part. These filaments were found in moist environments in five limestone caves (four in New Mexico, U.S.A., one in Tabasco, Mexico), and a basalt lava tube...
