Enterococcus ⇒ Enterococcus faecalis {10000207} Record Keys Parent:Enterococcus Definition:Enterococcus faecalis Details Initialisation date:2019-06-16 LinksSource Meta Information Rank: Species Domain: Bacteria Enzyme:[ ] Function:[ ] Notes: [ ]Shared Reference Notes [1.1] - Enterococcus faecalis levels associated with variants in the MED13L locus, which has been linked to #Colorectal cancer. [1.2] [#Colorectal cancer] - Increases in Enterococcus faecalis and #Escherichia coli enhance the production of intestinal inflammatory signaling molecules, IFN-γ and IL-4. In both IBD and CRC, #Fusobacterium nucleatum elicits strong pro-inflammatory responses [1.3] [#Escherichia coli] [#Infants] - Unique infant microbe-metabolite associations included positive correlations of Enterococcus faecalis and E. coli with neurotransmitters #Tyramine and #Agmatine, respectively [1.4] [#Parkinson’s Disease] - #Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis tdc genes metabolize L-dopa efficiently, and their abundance in the gut correlates directly with reduced efficacy of L-dopa for the patient. - the species, E. faecium and E. faecalis, were elevated in PD. [1.5] [#Candida albicans] - C. albicans colonization supports colonization with #Streptococcus oralis in mice and leads to expansion of endogenous Enterococcus faecalis [1.6] [#Pregnancy] [#Lactobacillus gasseri] - Tvaginal microbiota was mostly consistent with previously reported community sequence types. - #Lactobacillus crispatus was the most abundant organism, followed by #Lactobacillus iners, #Gardnerella vaginalis, #Lactobacillus jensenii, and L. gasseri. - Enterococcus faecalis was found in nearly 100% of samples, #Pseudomonas tolaasii in all samples, and #Escherichia coli in 83.75% of samples. #Streptococcus agalactiae was detected in 74% of samples and is an important pathogen in both mothers and #Infants. [1.7] - essential oils tested against multi-drug-resistant E. faecalis, Origanum glandulosum and Thymbra capitata were found highly effective in eradicating the E. faecalis biofilms [#Streptococcus mutans] [#Eucalyptus oil] - EO significantly inhibited the planktonic and biofilm growth of S. mutans and E. faecalis. - EO inhibited the biofilm growth of S. mutans and E. faecalis by around 60 and 30-fold, respectively, compared to the group with no EO. - the antibacterial effect of EO against the planktonic and biofilm growth of S. mutans and E. faecalis was prominent, indicating its potential use against thick and mature dental biofilms. [1.8] [#Diabetes Type 2] - The #Tyrosine decarboxylase action of bacteria #Ruminococcus gnavus, Enterococcus faecalis and #Clostridium sporogenes converts #Tyrosine (Tyr) into #Tyramine. - Its role to improve #Glucose tolerance marked it as a beneficial metabolite to T2DM. [1.9] [#Clostridium boltae] - #Blautia hansenii, Enterocloster (Clostridium) boltae and Enterococcus faecalis and have also been shown to produce #Tryptamine and #Phenethylamine by recent studies [#Enterococcus faecium, #Staphylococcus aureus] - #Clovibactin efficiently kills drug-resistant Gram-positive bacterial pathogens without detectable resistance. - #Clovibactin exhibited antibacterial activity against a broad range of Gram-positive pathogens, including methicillin- resistant S. aureus (MRSA), daptomycin-resistant and #Vancomycin intermediate resistant S. aureus (VISA) strains, and difficult to treat #Vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecalis and E. faecium (#Vancomycin-resistant enterococci [VRE]). [1.11] [#Allergy] [#Anaerostipes hadrus, #Blautia wexlerae, #Clostridium innocuum, #Eggerthella lenta, #Escherichia coli, #Eubacterium hallii, #Fusicatenibacter saccharivorans, #Tyzzerella nexilis] - depletions in the bacterial species A. hadrus, F. saccharivorans, E. hallii, and B. wexlerae in participants who later developed allergic diseases, as well as enrichments in E. lenta, C. innocuum, E. faecalis, E. coli, and T. nexilis in these participants. [1.12] - Enterococcus faecalis is capable of modulating immune function by suppressing macrophage activity through preventing NF-κB signaling or promoting anti-inflammatory cytokine #IL-10 [1.13] [#Blautia caecimuris, #Parasutterella excrementihominis] - #Morphine treatment resulted in significant expansion of Parasuterella excrementihominis, #Burkholderiales bacterium 1_1_47, Enterococcus faecalis, #Enterorhabdus caecimuris and depletion of #Lactobacillus johnsonii. [1.14] [#AA amyloidosis] - prion-like proteins are conserved across multiple phyla and that at least 0.3% of all known bacteria genes encode for PrLDs. - pathogenic bacteria such as #Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, #Enterococcus faecium, or #Staphylococcus epidermidis, this percentage could be higher and achieve 18% [1.15] [#Hepatocellular cancer] - Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) was demonstrated in hepatocellular carcinoma samples and suggested to have a prominent role in liver carcinogenesis [1.16] - #Extrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma > Among the most prevalent bacteria identified in the bile ducts were Enterococcus faecalis (38.8%, 31/80), #Enterococcus faecium (32.5%, 26/80), #Enterobacter cloacae (16.3%, 13/80), and #Escherichia coli (11.3%, 9/80). [1.17] [#Enterococcus faecium] [#Antibiotic Therapy] - two of the most frequently identified species of Enterococci – E. faecium and E. faecalis – are both known to acquire antibiotic resistance. [1.18] [#Escherichia coli] - #Neotame exposure increased adhesion capacity of E. coli and E. faecalis onto Caco-2 cells and invasion capacity of E. coli.References Notes[ ]
