“…The lungs of the puppy reported here, presented a hepatic appearance, consolidation, and intense purulent content in all the lobes. Histologically, an inflammatory infiltrate was also observed in the lungs with the presence of Gram‐positive bacillary filamentous and branching organisms, partially alcohol acid resistant, compatible with Nocardia ‐induced infections (Brown‐Elliott et al, ; Corti & Villafañe‐Fioti, ; Fatahi‐Bafghi, ; Saubolle & Susslan, ).…”

“…Nocardia are well‐known actinomycetes characterized as saprophytic and telluric bacteria (Corti & Villafañe‐Fioti, ; Fatahi‐Bafghi, ) found in soil, freshwater, saltwater and decaying vegetation (Brown‐Elliott, Brown, Conville, & Wallace, ; Ribeiro, ). To date, 92 species are recognized, 54 of which are clinically important (Corti & Villafañe‐Fioti, ).…”

Pyogranulomatous pleuropneumonia caused by Nocardia asiatica in a dog coinfected with canine morbillivirus (canine distemper virus)

Nocardia asiatica causing pyogranulomatous pleuropneumonia is reported for the first time in a dog coinfected with canine morbillivirus (CM), diagnosed based on epidemiological, clinical, haematological, images, microbiological, histopathological, polymerase chain reaction and hsp65 gene sequencing findings. The immunosuppression of CM probably favoured the opportunistic behaviour of N. asiatica. Despite the therapeutic measures, the animal died, mainly due to respiratory distress. The association of methods to improve early diagnosis, therapy procedures and prognosis of canine nocardiosis is discussed, as well as the close relationship between pets and their owners, which may favour the transmission of pathogens such as Nocardia from pets‐to‐humans, which poses an emerging public health issue.

“…Infection typically results in acute or chronic suppurative necrosis and abscess formation, which due to intrinsic properties and virulence factors, are pathological hallmarks of Nocardiosis. [1][2][3] Nocardia typically presents with pneumonia, lung abscesses or cavitating lung lesions which may then (in 20%-50%) cause disseminated infection in any distant tissue. 2 The brain is most commonly involved which is seen in 15% whilst the choroid may be involved in 3%-5%.…”

New Nocobactin Derivatives with Antimuscarinic Activity, Terpenibactins A–C, Revealed by Genome Mining of Nocardia terpenica IFM 0406

We report a genomics‐guided exploration of the metabolic potential of the brasilicardin producer strain Nocardia terpenica IFM 0406. Bioinformatics analysis of the whole genome sequence revealed the presence of a biosynthetic gene cluster presumably responsible for the generation of formerly unknown nocobactin derivatives. Mass spectrometry‐assisted isolation led to the identification of three new siderophores, terpenibactins A ( 1 ), B ( 2 ) and C ( 3 ), which belong to the class of nocobactins. Their structures were elucidated by employing spectroscopic techniques. Compounds 1 – 3 demonstrated inhibitory activity towards the muscarinic M3 receptor, while exhibiting only a low cytotoxicity.
