Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Enterococcus antibody (AB19980)

Immunohistochemical analysis of porcine plasma-based in vitro grown biofilm, staining Enterococcus with ab19980.

Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and blocked with 1% BSA for 30 minutes a room temperature. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/10000 in blocking buffer) for 18 hours at 4°C. Staining was detected using DAB.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Enterococcus is a gram-positive bacterium sometimes referred to as enterococci and it primarily includes the species Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium. These bacteria typically weigh around 1.6 femtograms per cell. They inhabit the gastrointestinal tracts of humans and animals. Enterococci can survive harsh conditions such as high salt concentrations and acidic environments and they display significant resilience to many antibiotics.
Biological function summary

Enterococci play a role in the intestinal microbiome helping maintain gut health. They are part of a larger community of microbes working together to decompose complex carbohydrates and synthesize vitamins. Enterococci can act as opportunistic pathogens especially in weakened immune systems potentially disrupting normal physiological functions. Under certain conditions they may form biofilms which are microbial communities that enhance their survival and resistance to antibiotics.

Pathways

Enterococci involve themselves in processes related to antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation. The vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) pathway is significant where enterococci acquire resistance genes that alter the peptidoglycan synthesis in their cell wall. They interact with proteins such as D-Ala-D-Ala ligases and VanA-type ligases which play roles in maintaining this resistance and modifying cellular structures to evade antibiotic action.

Enterococci relate to nosocomial infections and urinary tract infections (UTIs). As opportunistic pathogens they often cause infections in hospital settings especially when the patient has compromised immune defenses. In cases of UTIs enterococci interact with proteins involved in immune response and inflammation such as interleukin-6. Their capacity to form biofilms complicates treatment as these biofilms shield the bacteria from both the host's immune system and administered antibiotics.
