Prevalent chromosome fusion in Vibrio cholerae O1

The paper reports chromosome fusions in clinical V. cholerae O1 isolates, showing stable transmission between patients within a household.

The Role of Morphological Adaptability in Vibrio cholerae's Motility and Pathogenicity

This study examines how morphological changes in Vibrio cholerae affect its motility and pathogenicity in different viscosity environments.

Diversity of Vibrio cholerae O1 through the human gastrointestinal tract during cholera

This study compares genetic diversity of Vibrio cholerae O1 in vomit and stool from cholera patients, finding reduced diversity in stool and some gene loss between samples.

Polyunsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid increases the virulence of gut pathogen, Yersinia enterocolitica

This study shows arachidonic acid increases the virulence of Yersinia enterocolitica by enhancing its proliferation and intracellular invasion.

Gut bacteria-derived sphingolipids alter innate immune responses to oral cholera vaccine antigens

This study links gut bacteria-derived sphingolipids to enhanced innate immune responses to an oral cholera vaccine using metagenomic and experimental approaches.

Impact of a human gut microbe on Vibrio cholerae host colonization through biofilm enhancement

This study shows that Paracoccus aminovorans enhances Vibrio cholerae colonization in the murine intestine through dual-species biofilm formation dependent on VPS and other biofilm components.

Proteomic changes in bacteria caused by exposure to environmental conditions can be detected by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization - Time of Flight (MALDI-ToF) Mass Spectrometry

This study shows that MALDI-ToF MS can detect proteomic changes in bacteria exposed to different environmental conditions, revealing intra-species phenotypic differences.
