Dominated by bacteria, the microbiota also includes commensal populations of fungi, viruses, archaea, and protists. Unlike bacterial microbiota, which was extensively studied in the past two decades, these non-bacterial microorganisms, their functional roles, and their interaction with one another or with host immune system have not been as widely explored. This review covers the recent findings on the non-bacterial communities of the human gastrointestinal microbiota and their involvement in health and disease, with particular focus on the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease. Keywords: gut microbiota; inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); mycobiome; virome; archaeome; eukaryotic parasites 1. Introduction Trillions of microbes colonize the human body, forming the microbial community collectively referred to as the human microbiota.

Rapidly developing field of nanobiotechnology dealing with metallic nanoparticle (MNP) synthesis is primarily lacking control over size, shape, dispersity, yield, and reaction time. Present work describes an ecofriendly method for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by cell free extract (CFE) of Saccharomyces boulardii. Parameters such as culture age (stationary phase ∘ growth), cell mass concentration (400 mg/mL), temperature (35 C), and reaction time (4 h), have been optimized to exercise a control over the yield of nanoparticles and their properties. Nanoparticle (NP) formation was confirmed by UV-Vis spectroscopy, elemental composition by EDX (energy dispersive X-rays) analysis, and size and shape by transmission electron microscopy.

Although antimicrobial agents remain the main strategy for the treatment of vaginal infections, their repeated use involves high rates of resistance and recurrence. Alternative approaches such as probiotics are studied. Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856 already demonstrated beneficial effects in experimental models of vaginal infections. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study was performed to evaluate the recovery of S. cerevisiae CNCM I-3856 in vaginal samples in healthy women after oral consumption. Sixty healthy women were randomized to receive a daily dose of S. cerevisiae CNCM I-3856 or a placebo for 4 weeks. Subcultures and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were used to detect the strain in vaginal and stool samples.

  • Grepafloxacin Susceptibility Against Penicillin Resistant
    Invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae in Canada 2011: Study of Antimicrobial Resistance and Serotypes Alyssa Golden Department of Clinical Microbiology, Health Sciences Centre, and Faculty of Medicine, University of Manitoba Correspondence: Alyssa Golden c/o Dr. G.G. Zhanel Department of Clinical Microbiology Health Sciences Centre MS673 - 820 Sherbrook Street Winnipeg, Manitoba R3A 1R9 CANADA Phone: (204) 787-4902 Fax: (204) 787-4699 email: [email protected] Introduction Infections caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae are of critical concern, as respiratory and invasive isolates are commonly resistant to many drug classes, including penicillins. They are also frequently multi-drug resistant (simultaneous resistance to e3 structurally unrelated classes). A conjugate vaccine Prevnar® (PCV-7: 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, 23F) has been used in Canada to great effect, reducing the number of invasive S. pneumoniae infections observed in children. However, S. pneumoniae serotypes that are not related to the vaccine are rising in Canada. For this reason, a new vaccine, PCV- 13 (PCV-7 + 1, 3, 5, 6A, 7F and 19A), was recently released in Canada to combat the rise of non-vaccine serotypes, especially 19A. This vaccination allows for broader coverage of S. pneumoniae serotypes. The purpose of my summer research project was to study invasive S. pneumoniae in Canada (2011) and assess their serotypes and antimicrobial resistance. Hypotheses PCV-13 will provide greater coverage of S. pneumoniae isolates than PCV-7. With the continued use of these conjugated vaccines, a greater proportion of non- vaccine serotypes will circulate in Canada. These serotypes will also be antimicrobial resistant. Methods Isolates tested were obtained from all geographic regions of Canada during the 2011 year.

  • The Role of the Immune Response in the Effectiveness of Antibiotic Treatment for Antibiotic Susceptible and Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria
    The role of the immune response in the effectiveness of antibiotic treatment for antibiotic susceptible and antibiotic resistant bacteria. by Olachi Nnediogo Anuforom A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Institute of Microbiology and Infection, School of Immunity and Infection, College of Medical and Dental Sciences, University of Birmingham. May, 2015.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The increasing spread of antimicrobial resistant bacteria and the decline in the development of novel antibiotics have incited exploration of other avenues for antimicrobial therapy. One option is the use of antibiotics that enhance beneficial aspects of the host’s defences to infection. This study explores the influence of antibiotics on the innate immune response to bacteria. The aims were to investigate antibiotic effects on bacterial viability, innate immune cells (neutrophils and macrophages) in response to bacteria and interactions between bacteria and the host. Five exemplar antibiotics; ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, ceftriaxone, azithromycin and streptomycin at maximum serum concentration (Cmax) and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were tested. These five antibiotics were chosen as they are commonly used to treat infections and represent different classes of drug.

However, most of the studies have been devoted to gut bacterial microbiota, forgetting the non-negligible fungal flora.

  • Capric Acid Secreted by Saccharomyces Boulardii
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Capric acid secreted by Saccharomyces boulardii infuences the susceptibility of Candida albicans to fuconazole and amphotericin B Jakub Suchodolski1*, Daria Derkacz1, Przemysław Bernat2 & Anna Krasowska1 The efect of capric acid, secreted by the probiotic yeasts Saccharomyces boulardii, was evaluated on the activities of fuconazole (FLC) and amphotericin B (AMB) against pathogenic Candida albicans fungus. The fndings indicated that capric acid may be a promising additive for use in combination with FLC. A FLC-capric acid combination led to reduced efux activity of multidrug resistance (MDR) transporter Cdr1p by causing it to relocalize from the plasma membrane (PM) to the interior of the cell. The above efect occurred due to inhibitory efect of FLC-capric acid combination of ergosterol biosynthesis. However, capric acid alone stimulated ergosterol production in C. albicans, which in turn generated cross resistance towards AMB and inhibited its action (PM permeabilization and cytoplasm leakage) against C. albicans cells. This concluded that AMB should not be administered among dietary supplements containing capric acid or S. boulardii cells. Candida albicans is a resident of human microbiota present on the skin, in the gastrointestinal tract and in the genital mucosae1. Under immunosuppression, C. albicans causes opportunistic infections, which may result in sepsis and multiple organ failure2,3. Tere is limited range of antifungal drug classes available to combat candidiasis. One such drug class includes azoles, which inhibit ergosterol biosynthesis by targeting cytochrome P-450 lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51A1, Erg11p) encoded by the ERG11 gene4. However, fungi increasingly develop resistance towards azoles, including the most commonly prescribed fuconazole (FLC)5–7.
