Results revealed significant differences in microbiota composition and functionality. Both species are dominated by bacteria; fungi comprised only 0.06-0.5% of metagenomic reads. Neocallimastigomycota, an anaerobic fungus involved in fiber breakdown in other herbivores, was found in low abundance, especially in B. variegatus. Bacterial communities showed subtle differences: C. hoffmanni was dominated by Bacillota and Bacteroidota, while B. variegatus showed higher Actinomycetota. Expected herbivore bacterial taxa (e.g., Fibrobacter and Prevotella) were scarce. Functional analysis showed a low abundance of carbohydrate-active enzymes essential for polysaccharide breakdown.

This study is the first in Pakistan to comprehensively characterize the antimicrobial resistance patterns and molecular mechanisms of S. marcescens from clinical specimens. The S. marcescens isolates were obtained from clinical specimens collected at tertiary care hospitals in Lahore and Faisalabad, Pakistan, between October 2023 and September 2024. Isolates were identified using the Vitek-2 system and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The disk diffusion assays, and broth microdilution method were used for antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The antimicrobial resistance determinants were amplified by PCR followed by sanger sequencing. The study revealed concerning resistance rates among S. marcescens isolates: 78% were resistant to third-generation cephalosporins, 52% to carbapenems, and 71.6% to fluoroquinolones. However, no isolates were found to be resistant to the tigecycline.

These findings expose an escalating AMR crisis in Pakistan driven by high-risk resistance gene combinations among S. marcescens isolates.

Although many putative DGCs and PDEs involved in c-di-GMP metabolism have been identified in V. parahaemolyticus, only a few have been thoroughly studied. Furthermore, the metabolism of c-di-GMP is influenced by various environmental factors and transcriptional regulators. This review provides an overview of the c-di-GMP signaling network in V. parahaemolyticus, focusing on recent advancements related to c-di-GMP metabolic enzyme genes and their regulatory mechanisms. Understanding the intricate mechanisms of c-di-GMP metabolism and regulation is crucial for revealing the environmental adaptation and pathogenic strategies of V. parahaemolyticus.</p>","PeriodicalId":11360,"journal":{"name":"Current Microbiology","volume":"82 7","pages":"319"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144198534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
