Expanding the Burkholderia pseudomallei Complex with the Addition of Two Novel Species: Burkholderia mayonis sp. nov. and Burkholderia savannae sp. nov.

Carina M. Hall, Anthony L. Baker, Jason W. Sahl, Mark Mayo, Holger C. Scholz, Mirjam Kaestli, James Schupp, Madison Martz, Erik W. Settles, Joseph D. Busch, Lindsay Sidak-Loftis, Astrid Thomas, Lisa Kreutzer, Enrico Georgi, Herbert P. Schweizer, Jeffrey M. Warner, Paul Keim, Bart J. Currie, David M. Wagner

Summary: Distinct Burkholderia strains were isolated from soil samples collected in northern Australia, and were identified as two novel species within the Burkholderia pseudomallei complex. These species, named Burkholderia mayonis sp. nov. and Burkholderia savannae sp. nov., display unique genomic characteristics and biochemical profiles. The discovery of these new species expands our understanding of this significant bacterial complex.

A sensitive mass spectrometry-based method to identify common respiratory pathogens in children

Lixin Hu, Shenyan Zhang, Wenqi Song, Fang Dong, Zhengde Xie, Xiangpeng Chen, Meng Liu, Baoxue Cui, Yunheng Zhang, Rui Zhang, Qingtao Wang

Summary: This study presents and evaluates a novel co-detection method that enables the simultaneous identification of 11 bacterial and 7 viral pathogens in about 7 hours using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry. The approach combines multiplex reverse transcription-PCR and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry, overcoming the limitations of conventional assays. As a screening method for common respiratory pathogens in children, the common respiratory pathogen mass spectrometry assay has the potential to revolutionize the diagnosis of respiratory tract infections by providing an accurate etiological diagnosis. It is expected to be a critical tool for the diagnosis of respiratory infections in children, offering a more efficient, cost-effective, and accurate approach for the detection of common respiratory pathogens.

Visualization of the distribution of anthraquinone components from madder roots in rat kidneys by desorption electrospray ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry imaging

Yuji Ishii, Kenji Nakamura, Tatsuya Mitsumoto, Norifumi Takimoto, Moeka Namiki, Shinji Takasu, Kumiko Ogawa

Summary: The study investigated the carcinogenicity of a natural dye called Madder color (MC) in the kidneys of rats. By using DESI-MSI, the researchers were able to visualize the distribution of MC components and metabolites in the kidneys. They found that two specific components, lucidin and rubiadin, were responsible for the genotoxicity and carcinogenicity of MC in the outer stripe of outer medulla (OSOM) in the kidneys. The study suggests that DESI-MSI analysis can be a powerful tool for exploring the mechanisms of chemical carcinogenesis.

Rapid Diagnosis of Mycobacterium marinum Infection by Next-Generation Sequencing: A Case Report

Fanfan Xing, Simon K. F. Lo, Yuanchao Ma, Jonathan Daniel Ip, Wan-Mui Chan, Meixun Zhou, Miaozi Gong, Susanna K. P. Lau, Patrick C. Y. Woo

Summary: This study presents the first report of using next-generation sequencing (NGS) for diagnosing histology- and culture-proven Mycobacterium marinum infection. The NGS technology using Oxford Nanopore Technologies' MinION device allowed for a microbiological diagnosis in less than 2 days, compared to the 20 days required to isolate the mycobacterium from tissue biopsy. NGS is particularly useful for detecting culture-negative and slow-growing microorganism infections, making it a valuable tool in routine clinical microbiology laboratories.

Induction of amphotericin B resistance in susceptible Candida auris by extracellular vesicles

Walton Chan, Franklin Wang-Ngai Chow, Chi-Ching Tsang, Xueyan Liu, Weiming Yao, Tony Tat-Yin Chan, Gilman Kit-Hang Siu, Alex Yat-Man Ho, Kristine Shik Luk, Susanna Kar-Pui Lau, Patrick Chiu-Yat Woo

Summary: This research characterized the impact of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from Candida auris on amphotericin B resistance. The EVs significantly increased the survival of the strain against amphotericin B, but had no effect on other antifungal drugs. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed the presence of immunogenic and drug resistance-associated proteins in the EVs. These findings provide important insights into the treatment of multidrug-resistant Candida auris.

Summary: In this study, we investigated the change in microbiome composition of wild Sichuan takin (Budorcas tibetanus) during winter and spring and analyzed the physiological implications for such changes. Seasonal variation affects the gut microbiomes in wild Sichuan takins, with winter associated with lower species diversity and spring with enrichment of cellulose-degrading genera and phytopathogens. These changes were crucial in their adaptation to the environment, particularly the difference in food abundance.
