TL;DR: It is suggested that ST-7 is an emerging, highly virulent S. suis clone that caused the largest S.suis outbreak ever described and was a single-locus variant of ST-1 with increased virulence.
Clinical, experimental, and genomic differences between intermediately pathogenic, highly pathogenic, and epidemic Streptococcus suis.
Changyun Ye,Han Zheng,Ji Zhang,Huaiqi Jing,Lei Wang,Yanwen Xiong,Wei Wang,Zhemin Zhou,Qiangzheng Sun,Xia Luo,Huamao Du,Marcelo Gottschalk,Jianguo Xu +12 more
TL;DR: ST7 has the ability to stimulate the production of massive amounts of proinflammatory cytokines, leading to STSLS, and has more recently evolved to become epidemic strain ST7.
Emergence of a New Multidrug-Resistant Serotype X Variant in an Epidemic Clone of Shigella flexneri
Changyun Ye,Ruiting Lan,Shengli Xia,Jin Zhang,Qiangzheng Sun,Shaomin Zhang,Huaiqi Jing,Lei Wang,Zhenjun Li,Zhemin Zhou,Ailan Zhao,Zhigang Cui,Jingjing Cao,Dong Jin,Lili Huang,Yiting Wang,Xia Luo,Xuemei Bai,Yan Wang,Ping Wang,Qiang Xu,Jianguo Xu +21 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that S. flexneri epidemics in China have been caused by a single epidemic clone, ST91, with frequent serotype switching to evade infection-induced immunity to serotypes to which the population was exposed previously.

Changyun Ye,Xuemei Bai,Ji Zhang,Huaiqi Jing,Han Zheng,Huamao Du,Zhigang Cui,Shouying Zhang,Dong Jin,Yanmei Xu,Yanwen Xiong,Ailan Zhao,Xia Luo,Qiangzheng Sun,Marcelo Gottschalk,Jianguo Xu +15 more
TL;DR: In all 106 ST7 strains responsible for human outbreaks and sporadic infections, the tetracycline-resistance gene, tetM, was detected on the conjugative transposon Tn916, and horizontal transmission of tetM is suspected.
A Novel Escherichia coli O157:H7 Clone Causing a Major Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome Outbreak in China
Yanwen Xiong,Ping Wang,Ruiting Lan,Changyun Ye,Hua Wang,Jun Ren,Huaiqi Jing,Yiting Wang,Zhemin Zhou,Xuemei Bai,Zhigang Cui,Xia Luo,Ailan Zhao,Yan Wang,Shaomin Zhang,Hui Sun,Lei Wang,Jianguo Xu +17 more
TL;DR: The study shows that ST96 is a novel clone and provided significant new insights into the evolution of virulence of E. coli O157:H7.
