      Arcobacter butzleri Biofilms: Insights into the Genes Beneath Their Formation 

      Salazar Sánchez, Adrián; Baztarrika, Itsaso; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Fernández Astorga, Aurora ORCID; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ORCID; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ORCID (MDPI, 2022)
      Arcobacter butzleri, the most prevalent species of the genus, has the demonstrated ability to adhere to various surfaces through biofilm production. The biofilm formation capability has been related to the expression of ...

      Foodborne and waterborne Arcobacter species exhibit a high virulent activity in Caco-2 

      Baztarrika, Itsaso; Salazar Sánchez, Adrián; Laorden Muñoz, Lorena ORCID; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ORCID; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ORCID (Elsevier, 2024-04)
      Infection mechanisms of Arcobacter remain uncertain. This study aimed to determine whether 65 food and waterborne isolates of at least six species were able to adhere and invade Caco-2 cells; and whether this ability could ...

      Genes involved in the adhesion and invasion of Arcobacter butzleri 

      Baztarrika, Itsaso; Wösten, Marc M.S.M.; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ORCID; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ORCID (Elsevier, 2024-08)
      Arcobacter butzleri is a foodborne pathogen that mainly causes enteritis in humans, but the number of cases of bacteraemia has increased in recent years. However, there is still limited knowledge on the pathogenic mechanisms ...

      Virulence genotype and phenotype of two clinical isolates of Arcobacter butzleri obtained from patients with different pathologies 

      Baztarrika, Itsaso; Salazar Sánchez, Adrián; Hernaez Crespo, Silvia; López Mirones, José Israel; Canut, Andrés; Alonso Monsalve, Rodrigo; Martínez Ballesteros, Ilargi ORCID; Martínez Malax-Echevarría, Irati ORCID (Springer Nature, 2023-11)
      The surge in human arcobacteriosis has increased interest in determining the mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of Arcobacter butzleri. Here, genomic analyses and in vitro Caco-2 infection, motility, urease and ...
