A median-joining network of published cox1 sequences (n = 123), in combination with the present 24 new sequences, represented 107 haplotypes distributed among six clusters, which corresponded to geographical localities but did not relate to host species. The S. fuelleborni cox1 sequences from some southern pig-tailed macaques and the one infected owner shared the same cox1 haplotype. This is the first evidence of likely zoonotic transmission of S. fuelleborni from a reservoir host, M. nemestrina.Carbapenemase-producing Alcaligenes species has been described in only few studies, with none so far from the African continent. Here, we report the whole genome sequence of Peanalcaligenes suwonensis bearing blaVIM-5 metallo-β-lactamase and first detection of carbapenemase producing Alcaligenes faecalis isolated from patients attending tertiary healthcare facilities in Nigeria. The isolates were identified by MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry. Antibiotic susceptibility assay, modified Carba NP test and genomic investigation revealed that two isolates of Alcaligenes faecalis and an isolate of Paenalcaligenes suwonensis harboured blaVIM-5 gene. The genome sequence analysis of the P. suwonensis 191B isolate, responsible for acute gastroenteritis, reveal the presence of 18 antibiotic resistance genes coding for resistance to five different classes of antibiotics. Three of the genes (blaOXA-368, blaCARB-4 and blaVIM-5) codes for resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. To our best knowledge, we describe here the first genome sequence of P. suwonensis species and the first detection of class B carbapenemase blaVIM-5 in a clinical isolate of P. suwonensis species and Alcaligenes faecalis in Nigeria. The finding of this study is of concern, as lateral dissemination of the genes into clinically important Gram-negative pathogens is highly likely.The trapeziometacarpal prosthesis is mostly used in Europe to treat osteoarthritis of the basal joint of the thumb. Its supposed benefits are that it restores the length of the thumb, improves strength, function and mobility while reducing recovery time compared to other surgical treatments. However, previous reviews of the literature could not confirm these assumptions. This article provides an updated systematic review to help answer to these questions through a methodical statistical analysis and to quantify the two main complications, namely failure and deep infection. To achieve these aims, a selection of articles including implant case series was done in the Medline database based on specific criteria. Data about pain, function, strength, infection, and failure were compiled and a statistical analysis was performed. Results show a fast recovery in terms of pain and function but the positive effect on strength seems limited. The failure rate represented by the revision rate is high and the deep infection rate is fairly low. Randomized controlled studies are needed to obtain reliable data to compare the prosthesis to other surgical treatments.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been identified to be critical mediators in the progression of atherosclerosis (AS). However, the exact roles and molecular mechanism of circ_0029589 in AS are far from understood.

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) stimulated by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) were served as a cellular model of AS. The expression levels of circ_0029589, microRNA (miR)-424-5p, and insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) or western blot analysis. Cell proliferation was determined by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and colony formation assay. Selleck Tipranavir Cell apoptosis, migration and invasion were examined by flow cytometry and transwell assay. The relationship between miR-424-5p and circ_0029589 or IGF2 was predicted by starbase and verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay.

Circ_0029589 and IGF2 were upregulated and miR-424-5p was downregulated in VSMCs treated with ox-LDL. Silence of circ_0029589 inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion but induced apoptosis in ox-LDL-treated VSMCs. MiR-424-5p was a target of circ_0029589 and its knockdown reversed the effects of circ_0029589 interference on proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis in ox-LDL-stimulated VSMCs. IGF2 was a target of miR-424-5p and miR-424-5p overexpression suppressed proliferation, migration and invasion while promoted apoptosis in ox-LDL-treated VSMCs by downregulating IGF2. Circ_0029589 positively modulated IGF2 expression by sponging miR-424-5p.

Circ_0029589 silence might inhibit the progression of AS by regulating miR-424-5p/IGF2 axis, providing a novel mechanism for pathogenesis of AS.

Hyperinsulinemia can be both a cause and consequence of obesity and insulin resistance. Hyperinsulinemia can result from increased insulin secretion and/or reduced insulin clearance. While many studies have focused on mechanisms triggering insulin secretion during obesity, the triggers for changes in insulin clearance during obesity are less defined. In this study, we investigated the role of the microbiota in regulating insulin clearance during diet-induced obesity.

Blood glucose and insulin clearance were tested in conventional male mice treated with antibiotics and germ-free mice colonized with microbes from mice that were fed a control (chow) diet or an obesogenic high-fat diet (HFD). The composition of the fecal microbiota was analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing.

Short-term HFD feeding and aging did not alter insulin clearance in the mice. Oral antibiotics mitigated impaired blood insulin clearance in the mice fed an HFD for 12 weeks or longer. Germ-free mice colonized with microbes from HFD-fed donor mice had impaired insulin but not C-peptide clearance. Microbe-transmissible insulin clearance impairment was only observed in germ-free mice after more than 6 weeks post-colonization upon HFD feeding. Five bacterial taxa predicted >90% of the variance in insulin clearance. Mechanistically, impaired insulin clearance was associated with lower levels of hepatic Ceacam-1 but increased liver and skeletal muscle insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) activity.

Gut microbes regulate insulin clearance during diet-induced obesity. A small cluster of microbes or their metabolites may be targeted for mitigating defects in insulin clearance and hyperinsulinemia during the progression of obesity and type 2 diabetes.
