    Escobase and AcR: Escherichia coli databases of genomes and acid resistance genes from isolates from cattle farms

    No full text
    Abstract Escherichia coli is a gram-negative bacterium commonly found in mammals and birds’ intestinal microbiota. It can be easily isolated and has been studied for more than nine decades, making it an ideal model organism. It is mainly commensal but occasionally pathogenic, expressing virulence factors, antibiotic-resistance and acid-resistance genes, which contribute to its ability to persist and colonize diverse environments. Its multi-resistance, combined with the virulence of certain pathotypes (e.g. STEC), poses a recurring threat to public health, as treatment for clinical infections is not always straightforward. The remarkable propensity of E. coli for diversification and genomic variability is often referred to as an open pangenome. This project’s objective was to create the ‘Escobase’ database ( Es cherichia co li data base ), which is comprised exclusively of Escherichia coli isolates from cattle farms, allowing us to generate a reference set of genomes that can be used for comparative genomics on samples from cattle and cattle farms. Using the annotated E. coli genomes, we further built a catalog of predicted proteins that help E. coli survive in low pH environments, often encountered when the bacteria traverse through the intestine. We believe these two databases will be of great help to the community, and we plan to keep improving them and publish updated versions in the future

     Paroles d’espionne. De quoi les lettres de Mlle de Chemerault, espionne de Richelieu à la cour de Louis XIII, sont-elles l’archive ?

    International audienceThis article focuses on the letters of an agent of Cardinal Richelieu at the court of Louis XIII, Françoise de Barbezière, known as Mademoiselle de Chemerault. Written in the late 1630s to inform Richelieu about the actions and conversations of Queen Anne of Austria's entourage, these letters were printed in 1650 in a collection of various pieces, including the Journal of Cardinal Duke Richelieu. The purpose of these letters was to report on the conversations exchanged between the queen, the king, her confidante Madame de Hautefort, and other court figures. A study of their enunciation and history reveals not only the organization of the surveillance system established by Richelieu at court, but also the importance he placed on archiving this surveillance for a carefully controlled publication. Reported speech thus emerges as a tool of knowledge and power.Cet article porte sur les lettres d’une agente du cardinal de Richelieu à la cour de Louis XIII, Françoise de Barbezière, mademoiselle de Chemerault. Rédigées à la fin des années 1630 pour informer Richelieu des faits et gestes de l’entourage de la reine Anne d’Autriche, ces lettres sont imprimées en 1650 dans un recueil de pièces diverses mettant au jour différents documents touchant au gouvernement du principal ministre de Louis XIII, dont le fameux Journal de M. le cardinal duc de Richelieu, qu’elles viennent compléter. Le discours rapporté a dans ces lettres une place considérable car leur objet même est de rendre compte des paroles échangées entre la reine, le roi, sa confidente Mme de Hautefort, et d’autres personnages de la cour. L’étude précise de l’énonciation de ces lettres, qui ne sont pas exactement de Mlle de Chemerault, ainsi que de leur histoire, révèle l’organisation du système de surveillance de la cour mis en place par Richelieu. Plus encore, elle révèle l’importance que celui-ci accordait à l’archivage de cette surveillance, pour en réaliser une publication contrôlée. Le discours rapporté s’avère un instrument de savoir, tout autant qu’un emblème du pouvoir, un trophée produit en preuve de sa capacité à être au courant de ce qui se dit

    Does income inequality influence health vulnerability to pollution? Evidence from France

    No full text
    This study investigates whether income inequality within a population influences the health effects of pollution. Specifically, we empirically estimate the causal impact of particulate matter (PM 10 ) on mortality in France, using wind direction as an instrumental variable, and explore how income inequality modifies this relationship. Our findings reveal a statistically and economically significant impact of pollution exposure on the mortality of individuals aged 50 or older, which intensifies in municipalities with higher levels of income inequality. More precisely, while the effect of PM 10 is not significant in municipalities with the lowest levels of disparities, it is significant for the others and increases with the level of inequality within the municipalities. The impact of PM 10 on the mortality of individuals aged 50 or older in the top 33% of municipalities with the highest inequality is up to twice as large as in municipalities with intermediate levels of inequality. This result is particularly striking given that it concerns a country like France, which has relatively low income inequality. To provide a comprehensive understanding of the potential underlying mechanisms, we develop a theoretical model and empirically test its predictions. We conclude that the observed variation in vulnerability to pollution across municipalities, stratified by inequality levels, could have been but is not attributable to differences in public health expenditure, pollution exposure (between and within municipalities), or poverty prevalence and intensity. Our results suggest that inequality plays a significant role in environmental health, worthy of further research
