| rapid identification and characterization of vibrio species using whole-cell maldi-tof mass spectrometry. | vibrio identification by means of traditional microbiological methods is time consuming because of the many biochemical tests that have to be performed to distinguish closely related species. this work aimed at evaluating the use of maldi-tof mass spectrometry for the rapid identification of vibrio (v.) spp. as an advantageous application to rapidly discriminate the most important vibrio spp. and distinguish vibrio spp. from closely related bacterial species like photobacterium damselae and grim ... | 2010 | 20059616 |

| modulation of vibrio mimicus hemolysin through limited proteolysis by an endogenous metalloprotease. | vibrio mimicus is a causative agent of human gastroenteritis and food poisoning, and this species produces an enterotoxic hemolysin (v. mimicus hemolysin) as a virulence determinant. vibrio mimicus hemolysin is secreted as an 80 kda precursor, which is later converted to the 66 kda mature toxin through removal of an n-terminal propeptide via cleavage of the arg151-ser152 bond. in this article, we investigate the role of the endogenous metalloprotease (v. mimicus protease) in the maturation of v. ... | 2009 | 19143841 |

| Detection and characterization of pathogenic vibrios in shellfish by a Ligation Detection Reaction-Universal Array approach. | Vibrios are a group of major foodborne pathogens widely distributed in marine environment. Vibrio cholerae, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Vibrio vulnificus are the pathogenic species of Vibrio that pose the greatest threat to human health. However, other vibrios, e.g. Vibrio alginolyticus, Vibrio mimicus and Grimontia hollisae, apparently less relevant in the group of foodborne pathogens, have been sporadically found in outbreaks.

| temporal lobe epilepsy with schizophrenia. | i have reported a case of coexisting schizophrenia and complex partial seizures to augment earlier reports of schizophrenia and psychomotor seizures masquerading as one another. i have attempted to clarify the differential diagnosis and reinforce the need to do thorough studies in such cases. | 2013 | 3616704 |
| effect of antihypertensive drugs on insulin, glucose, and lipid metabolism. | the close relationship between diabetes and hypertension has been recognized for decades. new information indicates that resistance to insulin action on glucose uptake in peripheral tissues is a common underlying mechanism in hypertension and diabetes. in prospective trials, the effects of antihypertensive agents on insulin sensitivity and lipoprotein metabolism have been evaluated. both beta-blockers and thiazide diuretics worsen insulin resistance and deteriorate lipoprotein metabolism. angiot ... | 2006 | 1828417 |

| interaction between vibrio mimicus and acanthamoeba castellanii. | vibrio mimicus is a gram-negative bacterium, which causes gastroenteritis and is closely related to vibrio cholerae. the environmental reservoir of this bacterium is far from defined. acanthamoeba as well as vibrio species are found in diverse aquatic environments. the present study was aimed to investigate the ability of a. castellanii to host v. mimicus, the role of bacterial protease on interaction with a. castellanii and to disclose the ability of cysts to protect intracellular v. mimicus. c ... | 2010 | 20454692 |
| discovery of novel vibrio cholerae vsp-ii genomic islands using comparative genomic analysis. | this report describes vibrio seventh pandemic island ii (vsp-ii) and three novel variants revealed by comparative genomics of 23 vibrio cholerae strains and their presence among a large and diverse collection of v. cholerae isolates. three vsp-ii variants were reported previously and our results demonstrate the presence of three novel vsp-ii in clinical and environmental v. cholerae marked by major deletions and genetic rearrangements. a new vsp-ii cluster was found in the seventh pandemic v. ch ... | 2010 | 20528940 |

| notes from the field: vibrio mimicus infection from consuming crayfish --- spokane, washington, june 2010. | on june 24, 2010, the spokane (washington) regional health district (srhd) was notified of two hospitalized patients under intensive care with severe dehydration whose stool specimens yielded vibrio mimicus. cdc was asked to assist with the environmental and epidemiologic investigation. investigators learned that both persons had consumed crayfish on june 20, 2010. the previous day, live crayfish obtained from an online seafood company had been boiled and served warm at a party. the chef reporte ... | 2010 | 21030943 |

| comparative genomics of clinical and environmental vibrio mimicus. | whether vibrio mimicus is a variant of vibrio cholerae or a separate species has been the subject of taxonomic controversy. a genomic analysis was undertaken to resolve the issue. the genomes of v. mimicus mb451, a clinical isolate, and vm223, an environmental isolate, comprise ca. 4,347,971 and 4,313,453 bp and encode 3,802 and 3,290 orfs, respectively. as in other vibrios, chromosome i (c-i) predominantly contains genes necessary for growth and viability, whereas chromosome ii (c-ii) bears gen ... | 2010 | 21078967 |

| presence of genes for type iii secretion system 2 in vibrio mimicus strains. | vibrios, which include more than 100 species, are ubiquitous in marine and estuarine environments, and several of them e.g. vibrio cholerae, v. parahaemolyticus, v. vulnificus and v. mimicus, are pathogens for humans. pathogenic v. parahaemolyticus strains possess two sets of genes for type iii secretion system (t3ss), t3ss1 and t3ss2. the latter are critical for virulence of the organism and be classified into two distinct phylogroups, t3ss2α and t3ss2β, which are reportedly also found in patho ... | 2010 | 21110901 |
| development of a single base extension-tag microarray for the detection of pathogenic vibrio species in seafood. | in this study, a single base extension-tag array on glass slides (sbe-tags) microarray was established to detect the seven leading seafood-borne pathogens, including vibrio parahaemolyticus, vibrio cholerae, vibrio vulnificus, vibrio mimicus, vibrio alginolyticus, vibrio anguillarum, and vibrio harveyi. three multiplex pcr assays were developed to specifically target the following species with individual gene markers, which are aads, tdh, and trh for v. parahaemolyticus; col, toxr, and vvh for v ... | 2010 | 21161212 |
| design and validation of a novel multiplex real-time pcr assay for vibrio pathogen detection. | three species--vibrio cholerae, vibrio parahaemolyticus, and vibrio vulnificus--account for the majority of vibrio infections in humans. rapid and accurate identification of vibrio species has been problematic because phenotypic characteristics are variable within species. additionally, biochemical identification and confirmation require 2 or more days to complete. rapid and sensitive molecular techniques for the detection of vibrio pathogens would be useful for the surveillance and management o ... | 2011 | 21669071 |
