The whole-genome sequence for Campylobacter fetus subsp. testudinum, a pathogen isolated from humans and turtles, has been reported recently. We present another completed genome sequence of the C. fetus subsp. testudinum strain pet-3, which was isolated from a lizard in Taiwan, for further genomic comparison study.

The maternal gut microbiome is involved in adapting immune responses to the presence of the semiallogeneic foetus. We have previously shown that antibiotics-induced gut dysbiosis, alterations in the maternal immune response and decreased foetal and placental weight. Here, we tested whether Bifidobacterium animalis subsp.

Helicobacter pylori is a significant human pathogen associated with gastric diseases, yet the contribution of plasmids to its pathogenicity remains largely unexplored. In this study, we combined plasmid network analysis, dereplication, functional annotation, and phylogenetic approaches to provide a comprehensive genomic and functional characterization of the H. pylori plasmidome using publicly available plasmid sequences.

Campylobacter fetus is an important etiological agent of reproductive infections in cattle, which can be managed through vaccination. Nevertheless, the efficacy of bovine reproductive vaccines against C. fetus remains uncertain due to the absence of standardized guidelines and variable vaccine formulations.

causes reproductive diseases in livestock and can lead to zoonotic infections such as bacteraemia, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. Despite its significance, its genomic characteristics remain poorly understood. This study analysed 114 publicly available genomes to provide global insights into genetic diversity, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and zoonotic risk.

Background: This study assessed how prenatal probiotic (P) supplementation affected the development of experimental periodontitis (PE) in pregnant mice, as well as the anthropometric traits of the resulting fetuses and the placental and intestinal tissues of the mother.
Methods: Thirty-two pregnant mice in all were divided into four groups (n = 8): Experimental periodontitis (PE), Experimental Periodontitis + Probiotics (PEP), Control + Probiotics (CP), and control (C). The animals in the PE and PEP groups received gavage with Porphyromonas gingivalis w83 for 15 days following pregnancy confirmation.
