Infections with atypical mycobacteria belonging to the Mycobacterium avium/intracellulare complex (MAC) can cause infection in both animals and humans. Using a standardized reagents commercial kit for random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis, 49 MAC strains isolated from 32 slaughter pigs and 17 humans in Sweden were identified and sorted out, yielding 6 RAPD types. By combining the results of RAPD primers 4 and 5 and the primer IS1245A, we found that pigs and humans may be infected with the same types of MAC strains, since 14 strains from humans and 8 strains from pigs were essentially identical and together, comprised RAPD type 2, the largest group of strains (44.8% of strains). With respect to grouping of strains, serotype and RAPD type were uncorrelated, except for serotype 20 and RAPD type 6. Using standardized beads, RAPD analysis is a reproducible technique for typing MAC strains, as the indistinguishable banding patterns obtained with repeated analyses of two isolates from each strain in this study demonstrate. However, primer selection and DNA purity were crucial for differentiating closely related strains.  相似文献

Here we describe the application of a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis for molecular genetic typing avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) strains. The RAPD technique was shown to be highly reproducible. Stable banding patterns with a high discriminatory capacity were obtained using two different primers. Overall, 55 E. coli strains were analyzed with a RAPD technique. The RAPD analysis showed that the E. coli strains isolated from poultry in Thailand and Sweden could be grouped into 50 of RAPD types by using these two different primer sets. Most of these different E. coli RAPD types were not geographically restricted. There was, as expected, a tendency of higher genetic relationship among E. coli strains isolated from the same farm. It is suggested that the RAPD technique may provide a rapid, low cost, simple and powerful tool to study the clonal epidemiology of avian E. coli infections.  相似文献

Coliform mastitis (CM) is not only a serious economical and animal welfare touching problem in dairy cattle, but also in sows after farrowing. Due to this disease, the essential adequate supply with colostrum for the growth and the health of the piglets is not ensured. Besides other influencing factors, Escherichia (E.) coli is of great importance as a causative agent of this multifactorial disease. In this study, E. coli isolates from milk samples of healthy and CM-affected sows were examined for the presence of virulence genes associated with extraintestinal E. coli strains, enterotoxigenic E. coli and other pathogenic E. coli. The isolated E. coli harbored mainly virulence genes of extraintestinal E. coli strains (especially fimC, ompA, traT, hra, kpsMTII, iroN). The virulence gene spectrum for both samples from CM-affected and healthy sows did not differ significantly. Particular virulence gene profiles of E. coli isolates from diseased sows were not detected. This study provides novel insights into the role of E. coli in association with mastitis in sows since it is the first time E. coli isolates from CM-affected sows' milk were analysed for virulence genes. Because there were no differences in the prevalence of E. coli and their virulence-associated genes between healthy and diseased sows, other causative factors seem to have greater influence on the pathogenesis of porcine CM.  相似文献

Forty-four Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae isolates recovered from both healthy and diseased pigs were characterized by random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis (RAPD), pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and apx toxin gene typing. Nine RAPD types and 14 PFGE patterns were identified. No common RAPD or PFGE patterns were found between strains of serotype 1 and those of serotype 5. The RAPD analysis indicated that the 15 serotype 1 strains isolated from diseased pigs were assigned to 4 RAPD types, with 66% of strains characterized by the same RAPD type. By contrast, the 5 strains of serotype 1 isolated from healthy carriers were dispersed in 4 RAPD types. These data suggest that the diversity of strains isolated from healthy pigs could be higher than that of strains recovered from diseased pigs. In addition, all serotype 5 strains exhibited a unique RAPD type. Unlike RAPD, PFGE analysis allowed discrimination among isolates of serotype 1 and among those of serotype 5. All but 3 isolates showed the same apx genotype as their respective serotype reference strain. These data indicate that RAPD analysis is a valuable rapid tool for routine subtyping of strains of serotype 1. For strains of serotype 5, a combination of several typing methods, such as PFGE and apx gene typing, is needed to provide useful information on the molecular epidemiology of swine pleuropneumonia.  相似文献

The genetic relatedness among 72 Escherichia coli strains of serotype O149:K91 isolated from pigs with diarrhoea was investigated by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Fimbrial and toxic virulence markers of the isolates were also tested. Amplification with primer 1254 resulted in three different RAPD types whereas primer 1290 generated one RAPD profile only. Based on the RAPD and fimbrial/toxin types the strains were classified into five distinct groups.  相似文献

Forty-six Escherichia coli strains isolated from post-weaning diarrhea of pigs were analysed for their phenotypic and genotypic properties. The isolates were of serogroups O138, O139, and O141 and most of them possessed hemolytic activities. PCR analysis showed that 34 of the isolates harboured the genes for shiga toxin 2e and 32 strains possessed the genes for heat-stable enterotoxins I and II. Ten strains had the fedA gene of F18 fimbriae. The genetic relationships among all isolates were tested by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC) PCR analyses. Using the RAPD test with two different primers, six fingerprints were distinguished whereas the ERIC analysis revealed only three DNA patterns. Some strains possessing identical phenotypic and genotypic virulence determinants exhibited distinct RAPD profiles and some isolates with different pathogenic markers showed the same RAPD and ERIC pictures. Thus, RAPD, and to a less extent ERIC techniques, revealed intra- and interserogroup genotypic variations among the E. coli strains analyzed.  相似文献

Twelve healthy primiparous sows received intramammary inoculation with Escherichia coli (serotype O127) during the 24-h period preceding parturition. Mammary gland biopsy samples were taken immediately before inoculation (0 h) and from the inoculated and the contralateral non-inoculated glands 24 h after inoculation. The analyses of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1beta), IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) by immunohistochemistry revealed that the production of these proinflammatory cytokines significantly increased in the inoculated mammary glands of sows that developed clinical signs of mastitis (affected group, n=4) 24 h after inoculation. This was also true for IL-8 in the inoculated mammary glands of sows that did not develop clinical signs of mastitis (nonaffected group, n=8). Sows that developed clinical signs of mastitis displayed significantly lower constitutive production of IL-1beta than did sows that remained clinically healthy. The data indicate that the development of clinical symptoms of coliform mastitis in the sow is associated with a locally increased proinflammatory cytokine production in response to intramammary E. coli infection.  相似文献

High virulence rabbit Staphylococcus aureus strains cause chronic and spreading problems of mastitis, pododermatitis and subcutaneous abscesses on rabbit flock level, whereas infections with low virulence strains are limited to individual rabbits. In the present report, 13 high virulence rabbit S. aureus strains, selected out of a large collection of strains isolated in five European countries between 1983 and 2004, were genotyped using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, spa typing, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and accessory gene regulator (agr) group typing. Two low virulence rabbit S. aureus strains were also included in the study. The results indicate the clonal origin of high virulence rabbit S. aureus strains present in Europe. Furthermore, the results of MLST and spa typing form a basis for international epidemiology of rabbit S. aureus strains, as these DNA sequence-based typing techniques can easily be used for intercentre comparisons.  相似文献

Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was performed on 95 pigeon S. gallolyticus strains of different virulence and belonging to different biotypes and different culture supernatant phenotypes as determined by SDS-PAGE. Four distinct RAPD patterns, designated A, B, C and D, were distinguished using primer OPM6 (5'CTGGGCAACT). All 76 strains generating RAPD pattern A or B were designated highly virulent on the basis of their SDS-PAGE pattern. Five of seven strains generating RAPD pattern C and 11 of 12 strains generating RAPD pattern D belonged to the moderately virulent and low virulent culture supernatant phenotype groups, respectively. Only one RAPD group C strain belonged to a highly virulent culture supernatant phenotype group. There was a correlation between biotype and RAPD patterns. These findings indicate that there is a high correlation between RAPD pattern and virulence for pigeons. Therefore, RAPD typing seems a rapid, reliable method to distinguish pigeon S. gallolyticus strains of high, moderate and low virulence.  相似文献

Escherichia coli infection is one of the most common causes of bovine mastitis in well managed dairies. Although E. coli infections are usually transient, E. coli can also cause persistent intramammary infections. We sought to determine whether E. coli isolates recovered from either transient or persistent intramammary infections differed both genetically and in their ability to invade mammary epithelial cells. E. coli isolates from transient (EC(trans), n=16) and persistent (EC(pers), n=12) mastitis cases were compared for differences in overall genotype, virulence genes, serotype, phylogroup (A, B1, B2, D), and invasion of bovine mammary epithelial cells, MAC-T by microarray analysis, suppressive subtractive hybridization, PCR and gentamicin protection assays. EC(trans) and EC(pers) were diverse in overall genotype and serotype, and were predominantly of phylogroups A and B1. Both EC(trans) and EC(pers) contained genes encoding type II, IV and VI secretion systems, long polar fimbriae (lpfA) and iron acquisition, and lacked genes associated with virulence in diarrheagenic E. coli. EC(trans) had fewer virulence genes than EC(pers) (p<0.05), but no individual virulence genes were unique to either group. In phylogroup A, EC(pers) were more invasive than EC(trans) (p<0.05), but no difference was observed between them in phylogroup B1. Enhanced epithelial cell invasion was associated with lpfA (p<0.05). Our findings indicate that a genetically diverse group of E. coli is associated with transient and persistent mastitis. We did not identify a set of bacterial genes to account for phenotypic differences. However, we found that mastitis phenotype, phylogroup and presence of lpfA were associated with the ability to invade cultured bovine mammary epithelial cells.  相似文献

Seven strains of Escherichia coli, originating from clinical cases of bovine mastitis, and one Salmonella typhimurium control strain were tested for their ability to adhere to, and invade, bovine mammary epithelial cells (MAC-T cells) in vitro. Four of the seven strains were isolated from cows with chronic intramammary infections with recurrent episodes of clinical mastitis and three strains were isolated from single cases of clinical mastitis. Both adhesion and invasion of all strains were dose and time dependent. The four E. coli strains isolated from recurrent cases of clinical mastitis invaded twice as frequently as and three times faster than the strains isolated from single cases of clinical mastitis. By contrast, there was no difference in the amount or speed of adhesion between the two types of strains of E. coli. Adhesion and invasion curves of E. coli resembled a two-step chain reaction, where invasion was the rate-limiting step. Although adhesion and invasion of E. coli has not been demonstrated in vivo yet, the results of the present study may contribute to an understanding of the pathogenesis of chronic intramammary infections caused by E. coli.  相似文献

In order to understand the virulence genes and drug resistance genes carried by E.coli strains from dairy cows with mastitis in large-scale dairy farms in Liaoning region, and also provide improved programs for control and treatment of mastitis to dairy farmers, 66 strains of E.coli isolated from milk of dairy cows with clinical mastitis in several large-scale farms in Liaoning region were examined to detect 4 virulence genes and 4 drug resistance genes using PCR methods. The results showed that none of the target genes was detected in only one strain, while at least 2 and up to 7 target genes were detected in the rest of 65 strains. The detection rates of the virulence genes stx2e, eaeA, K99 and astA were 56.1%, 47.0%, 34.8% and 31.8%, respectively. In addition, the detection rate of dual virulence gene reached 43.9%, in which the genotype with the highest detection rate was eaeA/stx2e. The detection rates of the drug resistance genes sul3, sul1, cmlA and aacA4 were 87.9%, 83.3%, 40.9% and 28.8%, respectively. And the dual resistance gene detection rate was 36.4%, in which the highest detection rate was sul1/sul3 genotype; Triple drug resistance gene detection rate was 37.9%, and cmlA/sul1/sul3 presented the highest detection rate. These results confirmed that the E.coli isolated from dairy cow mastitis in large-scale dairy farms in Liaoning region had high detecting rates of sulfonamide resistance genes and chloramphenicol resistance genes, which was directly related to the drug resistance of the E.coli. These results provided important guiding significance for the prevention and control of dairy cow mastitis in Liaoning region as well as the safety of public health.  相似文献

Bovine mastitis caused by Escherichia coli has traditionally been viewed as a transient infection. However, E. coli can also cause clonal persistent intramammary infection (IMI) in dairy cows. In this study, we explored the possibility that E. coli strains associated with persistent IMI are better able to adhere to, invade, survive and replicate in cultured mammary epithelial cells (MAC-T) than transient strains, and examined their serotype, overall genotype, phylogenetic group, and the presence of known virulence genes. Both transient and persistent E. coli strains adhered to MAC-T cells, but persistent strains invaded MAC-T cells 2.6-63.5 times more than transient strains. Blocking the adhesin/invasin FimH with mannose diminished but did not eliminate adhesion and invasion of any strain. Cytoskeletal and protein kinase inhibitors cytochalasin D, colchicine, genistein and wortmannin dramatically reduced invasion of MAC-T cells by both strains. All of the persistent strains, but only one transient strain, were able to survive and replicate intracellularly in MAC-T cells over 48 h. Transient and persistent strains displayed heterogeneous serotypes and overall genotypes, but similar phylogeny (group A), and lacked virulence genes of invasive E. coli. We have found that E. coli strains associated with persistent IMI are better able to invade and replicate within cultured mammary epithelial cells than transient strains. The invasion process involves the host cytoskeleton and signaling cascades and is not FimH dependent. Our findings suggest that the invasion of mammary epithelial cells and intracellular survival play an important role in the pathogenesis of persistent E. coli mastitis.  相似文献

Escherichia coli is a common avian pathogen mainly associated with extraintestinal infections such as yolk sac infection (YSI). The aim of this study was to determine the serotypes and the presence of some virulence genes of E. coli strains isolated from different samples in a vertically integrated poultry operation in Mexico. Two hundred sixty-seven E. coli isolates from different samples were serotyped using rabbit serum against the 175 somatic (O) and 56 flagellar (H) antigens of the typing schema. Virulence genes were determined by colony blot hybridization, using DNA probes for st, eae, agg1, agg2, bfp, lt, cdt, slt, and ipaH diarrhea-associated virulence factors. The serogroup of 85% of the strains was determined; O19 (12%), 084 (9%), 08 (6%), and 078 (5%) were the most common. Using the complete antigenic formula (O and H), O19:NM (n = 31) was the serotype most frequently isolated from dead-in-shell embryos and in broilers that had died on the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh days after hatch. One hundred ten strains (41.2%) hybridized with one or more of the used probes. Of these, ipaH (72%), eae (30%), and cdt (27%) were the most common. Considering the origin of the respective isolates, 40% of the broiler farm strains were positive for at least one probe. Results show that some avian E. coli strains isolated in Mexico are included in avian pathogenic E. coli serotypes not previously reported, suggesting that they could be specific for this geographic area. The wide distribution of the ipaH gene among nonmotile strains suggests that this invasiveness trait could be important in YSI pathogenesis. On the other hand, some other genes could contribute to E. coli virulence during YSI.  相似文献

Escherichia coli intramammary infection (IMI) is often acute with local and systemic clinical manifestations that clear within 7 days. However, if not diagnosed early and treated, E. coli IMI could result in generalized systemic reaction and death. Persistent E. coli IMI is characterized by mild clinical manifestations followed by acute episodes of clinical mastitis during lactation. Factors responsible for pathogenesis of E. coli IMI and variation in clinical manifestations are not known. There are studies indicating that the outcome of E. coli IMI is mainly determined by cow factors. However, recent research demonstrated that virulence attributes of E. coli strains have significant impact on the outcome of E. coli IMI. The aims of this study were; (a) to compare gene expression profiles of PBMEC cocultured with strains of E. coli associated with acute or persistent IMI and; (b) to identify genes of E. coli induced during bacterial interaction with PBMEC. Utilizing cDNA we analyzed gene expression patterns of PBMEC cocultured with strains of E. coli using non-treated PBMEC as negative control. We evaluated also expression patterns of virulence associated genes of E. coli after co-culture with PBMEC using qRT-PCR. Our results showed that infection by both strains induced increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and innate immune response and apoptosis related genes. Our qRT-PCR results showed significant up-regulation of ler, eae, flic and iutA genes mainly in the strains of E. coli associated with persistent IMI. The pathogenesis and clinical severity of E. coli IMI may be determined by combined effects of host-pathogen factors.  相似文献
