Periprosthetic knee joint infection caused by Sneathia sanguinegens
2022, Journal of Infection and ChemotherapyCitation Excerpt :S. sanguinegens was first isolated from the human blood and originally designated as Leptotrichia sanguinegens [4]. Subsequently, the organism was classified into a novel genus Sneathia based on phenotypic and phylogenetic evidence [5]. S. sanguinegens is very fastidious and has extremely rarely been isolated as a human pathogen.
The interplay between microbiota, metabolites, immunity during BV
2022, Medicine in MicroecologyCitation Excerpt :Sneathia (Leptotrichia, belonging to Leptotrichiaceae) is a long Gram-negative caustic bacteria [54], and it is difficult to culture in vitro. In 2001, Collins et al. [55] isolated Sneathia from human blood and amniotic fluid samples and classified the bacteria previously known as Leptotrichia sanguinegens (belonging to cilium) into a new genus Sneathia based on phylogenetic and phenotypic results. L. sanguinegens was renamed S. Sanguinegens.
Vaginal host immune-microbiome interactions in a cohort of primarily African-American women who ultimately underwent spontaneous preterm birth or delivered at term
2021, CytokineCitation Excerpt :In the current study, we also show that Sneathia sanguinegens is negatively associated with multiple vaginal immune mediators in women who subsequently underwent spontaneous preterm birth compared to those who delivered at term. Sneathia spp. are rod-shaped Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria whose common habitat is the human vagina [93–95]. The traditional view holds that Sneathia spp. are of a fastidious nature given that their cultivation is not always possible [96–103].
Correlation between intraluminal oxygen gradient and radial partitioning of intestinal microbiota
2014, GastroenterologyCitation Excerpt :Bacteria can be classified into 5 groups by their ability to use oxygen for cellular functions: obligate aerobes, microaerophiles, facultative bacteria, aerotolerant bacteria, and obligate anaerobes. Based on the literature,34–36 obligate anaerobic bacteria can be classified at the genus level,37 and each of the 70 bacterial genera in the stool and biopsy samples with a proportion greater than 0.002 were classified into one of these categories (Supplementary Table 1). For each participant, we then determined whether the predominant organisms in each stool sample and biopsy specimen were obligate anaerobes or “all others” based on their averaged abundance on days 1 and 10.
