A modified, double-antibody, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect the K99 pilus antigen of enterotoxic Escherichia coli (ETEC) in feces of calves. Extremely high positive to negative ratios (greater than 200) were obtained by using monoclonal antisera as the primary antibody. Strong positive reactions were obtained with strains of E coli known to produce the K99 antigen; however, non-enteropathogenic E coli (strains not producing the K99 antigen), Salmonella, Proteus, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and rotavirus produced negative results. Seventy-five fecal samples, 8 from healthy calves and 67 from calves with neonatal calf diarrhea were examined with the K99 ELISA for the presence of ETEC. Rotavirus test and fecal culture results were available on feces from calves with diarrhea and were used with the K99 ELISA results to determine the specific cause of the disease. Enterotoxic E coli was the predominant agent detected in the feces of 29 diarrheal calves less than 5 days of age. Mixed infections of rotavirus and ETEC were also common in these calves, but rotavirus infections alone were not detected. In 38 calves greater than or equal to 5 days, rotavirus was detected without ETEC. Of these calves, only 2 produced positive tests with the K99 ELISA. Salmonella sp and Proteus sp were detected from 5 of 67 calves with diarrhea.  相似文献

Five monoclonal antibodies against pili of Corynebacterium renale 115 P+ (piliated clone) and two monoclonal antibodies against pili of C. pilosum 92 P+ (piliated clone) were produced. These antibodies bound to pili of the homologous strain in in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and agglutinated P+ but not P- (non-piliated clone) of each homologous strain. The five monoclonal antibodies against C. renale 115 P+ pili were divided into 2 groups, comprising 16/5, 160/1 and 32/6 and 13/4 and B20/3, based on the results of a competitive binding assay. The results may indicate the presence of at least 2 distinct antigenic areas on the pilus of C. renale 115 P+. The monoclonal antibodies of the first group inhibited adhesion of C. renale 115 P+ bacteria to the epithelial cells of bovine vulva, while the second group did not. Two monoclonal antibodies against C. pilosum 92 P+ pili recognized the same area on the pilus of C. pilosum 92 P+, and inhibited the adhesion of C. pilosum 92 P+ bacteria to the epithelial cells of bovine vulva. The adhesion of these bacteria was inhibited by the monoclonal antibodies in the form of IgG as well as by the Fab fragment. The strains of C. renale and C. pilosum which reacted with each of the anti-C. renale 115 P+ pili and anti-C. pilosum 92 P+ pili monoclonal antibodies were small in number and of restricted distribution.  相似文献

Most enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) isolated from neonatal cattle with diarrhea (enteric colibacillosis) exhibit the colonization factor antigen, K99. The K99 pili are necessary for the bacteria to bind to a receptor, N-glycolylneuraminic acid-GM3 on the host cells in the small intestine where the bacteria multiply and secrete toxins that cause the diarrhea. When the attachment of the ETEC to host cell is inhibited, the bacteria do not accumulate sufficiently in the gut to cause disease. Since purified K99 pili block K99+ ETEC from binding to host epithelia, three recombinant K99 proteins of different sizes were developed and produced to demonstrate inhibition with in vitro competitive binding assays. The full-length recombinant protein, rK99-476 inhibited the binding of ETEC with an activity similar to that of the native purified K99, whereas the truncated recombinant K99 protein had no inhibitory activity. Thus this binding activity of rK99-476, which is specific and effective in blocking the receptors on the host cells, may be able to competitively inhibit K99+ ETEC infections in cattle.  相似文献

Pregnant gilts were vaccinated orally with Escherichia coli that produced pilus antigens K99 or 987P. The vaccines were live or dead enterotoxigenic E coli (ETEC) or a liver rough non-ETEC strain which has little ability to colonize pig intestine. Pigs born to the gilts were challenge exposed orally with K99+ or 987P+ ETEC, which did not produce heat-labile enterotoxin or flagella and which produced somatic and capsular antigens different from those of the vaccine strains. Control gilts had low titers of serum and colostral antibodies against pilus antigens, and their suckling pigs frequently had fatal diarrhea after challenge exposure. Serum antibody titers against pilus antigens of the vaccine strains increased in the gilts after vaccination with liver ETEC, and the colostral antibody titers of these gilts were higher than those of controls. Pigs suckling such vaccinated gilts were more resistant than controls to challenge strains were of different pilus types, and it could not be attributed to enterotoxin neutralization by colostrum. In contrast to the live ETEC vaccines given to the pregnant gilts, the liver rough non-ETEC and dead ETEC vaccines stimulated little or no production of antibody against pilu, and the pigs born of these vaccinated gilts remained highly susceptible to challenge exposure. The results support the hypothesis that pilu can be protective antigens in oral ETEC vaccines. It was indicated that in the system reported, protection depended on living bacteria for the production of pilus antigens in vivo or for the transport of pilus antigens across intestinal epithelium.  相似文献

Primigravid swine were vaccinated orally with a live enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strain that produces pilus antigen K99. The titers of K99 antibody in colostrum and milk of vaccinates remained higher than those of nonvaccinated controls through the first lactation after vaccination (4 weeks). Some control swine had low titers of K99 antibody in colostrum or developed low titers of K99 antibody in milk during lactation. Lacteal K99 antibody titers of vaccinates dropped to control levels during the second lactation, 6 months after vaccination. Pigs suckling vaccinates and controls were equally susceptible to challenge exposure to K99+ ETEC during the second lactation. Orally vaccinated swine given a parenteral booster vaccination (with killed K99+ ETEC) during their second gestation had K99 antibody in milk through their second lactation. During the second lactation, these orally vaccinated parenterally revaccinated swine had higher titers of K99 antibody in postcolostral milk than did nonvaccinated controls, controls given only the parenteral booster injection, or controls vaccinated parenterally during both gestations.  相似文献

Spleen cells from a calf hyperimmunized with bovine enteric coronavirus were fused with nonproducer mouse plasmacytoma cells. Stable hybridoma lines secreting bovine immunoglobulins were obtained. One line secreted monoclonal bovine immunoglobulin G2, which reacted specifically with bovine enteric coronavirus in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, inhibited virus hemagglutination, and precipitated a structural polypeptide with a molecular weight of 26,000 daltons.  相似文献

Spleen cells from a calf immunized with bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) were fused with the nonsecreting murine cell line SP2/0. Several bovine-murine hybridomas secreting bovine immunoglobulins were stabilized. Of these, 9 hybridomas secreted bovine monoclonal antibodies that specifically bound to BHV-1 in a radioimmunoassay. Two of these monoclonal antibodies reacted specifically with BHV-1 in an indirect fluorescent antibody test and immunoprecipitated a BHV-1 glycoprotein with molecular mass of 97 kilodaltons.  相似文献

Eighty-eight of 1529 (5.7 per cent) Escherichia coli isolates from diarrhoeic and clinically normal calves in Scotland and northern England were found to possess the K99 pilus antigen (K99+). There was complete correlation between possession of K99 antigen, heat stable enterotoxin production and ability to dilate intestinal loops. The diagnosis of calf enterotoxigenic E coli infections may therefore be based on the detection of K99 antigen alone. Enterotoxigenic E coli was isolated from 23 of 306 (7.5 per cent) diarrhoeic calves from eight of 70 (11.4 per cent) farms and was not isolated from clinically normal calves. Infected calves were between one and three days old. A survey by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay found 3.0 per cent and 3.9 per cent of sera from calves and cows respectively to contain antibodies to K99 antigen. The prevalence of other enteropathogenic organisms in calf faeces is also discussed.  相似文献

Eighteen isolates of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) and 15 isolates of nonenterotoxigenic E coli (NETEC) obtained from calves with diarrheal disease were characterized biochemically. Of 64 biochemical tests employed, none allowed making differentiation of ETEC from NETEC. Eleven tests were used to separate ETEC isolates into 1 of 5 biotypes, although the ability to ferment dulcitol, salicin, sucrose, and sorbose gave sufficient information to identify the 5 biotypes of ETEC. The biotype data were confirmed upon testing 159 additional isolates of ETEC of bovine origin. All isolates of ETEC studied belong to serogroups O9:K35, O101:K30, O8:K85, O20:K? O8:K25, and O101:K28. The ETEC in different serogroups were also different biotypically, with the exception that isolates in serogroups O101:K28 and O101:K30 were of the same biotype. The K99 antigen was detected in 172 of the 177 isolates of ETEC and in 1 of 15 isolates of NETEC. Marked biochemical differences were not found between K99 + and K99- isolates of E coli.  相似文献

A study was conducted to determine whether intestinal fluid collected from various portions of bovine intestine differed in its effect on production of K99 pili by Escherichia coli. The small and large intestines of 7 calves, euthanatized 4 hours after a final feeding of milk, were divided into 6 to 9 segments from which intraluminal fluids were collected. Depending on the amount of fluid collected, up to 20 E coli strains that express K99 pili were grown on media prepared from the content of each specimen and then were tested for K99 pilus expression. In general, intestinal fluid from the most proximal small intestinal segments were more suppressive to K99 pilus expression than was fluid from more distal segments of small intestine. Only about 20% of the E coli test strains expressed K99 pili when grown on medium prepared from proximal small intestinal segmental fluid, whereas greater than 90% did when grown on medium prepared from distal small intestinal segmental fluid. Fluid from the large intestine varied considerably from calf to calf in its effect on K99 pilus expression. A correlation was found between K99 pilus expression and pH of the intestinal fluid, with the lower pH values (characteristic of proximal intestinal segmental fluid) being suppressive. The correlation between K99 pilus production and the pH of the medium was verified, using defined laboratory media adjusted to various pH values. Strains of E coli grown in medium at or below pH 5.5 failed to express K99 pili, whereas the same strains when grown in medium at or above pH 6.5 expressed K99 pili in abundance.  相似文献

Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains were collected from young diarrheic calves in farms and field. Strains that expressed the K99 (F5) antigen were identified by agglutination tests using reference antibodies to K99 antigen and electron microscopy. The K99 antigen from a selected field strain (SAR-14) was heat-extracted and fractionated on a Sepharose CL-4B column. Further purification was carried out by sodium deoxycholate treatment and/or ion-exchange chromatography. Monoclonal antibodies to purified K99 antigen were produced by the hybridoma technique, and a specific clone, NEK99-5.6.12, was selected for propagation in tissue culture. The antibodies, thus obtained, were affinity-purified, characterized and coated onto Giemsa-stained Cowan-I strain of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The antibody-coated S. aureus were used in a co-agglutination test to detect K99+ E. coli isolated from feces of diarrheic calves. The specificity of the test was validated against reference monoclonal antibodies used in co-agglutination tests, as well as in ELISA. Specificity of the monoclonal antibodies was also tested against various Gram negative bacteria. The developed antibodies specifically detected purified K99 antigen in immunoblots, as well as K99+ E. coli in ELISA and co-agglutination tests. The co-agglutination test was specific and convenient for large-scale screening of K99+ E. coli isolates.  相似文献

Colony hybridizations with DNA probes for 3 heat-stable (STaP, STaH, and STb) enterotoxins and 1 heat-labile (LT) enterotoxin and for 4 adhesins (K99, F41, K88, 987P) were performed on 870 Escherichia coli isolates to determine pathotypes prevalent among enterotoxigenic E coli (ETEC) isolated from cattle in Belgium. One hundred thirty-two E coli isolates (15.2%) hybridized with probes STaP, K99, and/or F41. The 5 other probes were not hybridized by E coli isolates. Therefore, only STaP enterotoxin and K99 and F41 adhesins were virulence factors of ETEC isolated from cattle. Two major pathotypes accounted for 95% of the ETEC: STaP+K99+F41+ (67.4%) and STaP+K99+ (27.3%). The last 5% of probe-positive isolates had STaP+, STaP+F41+, or K99+F41+ minor pathotypes. Of 12 American ETEC isolates also assayed, 7 were positive with STb and/or 987P probes (pathotypes STaP+STb+, STaP+ 987P+, or STaP+STb+987P+) and may be porcine- rather than bovine-specific enteropathogens. The remaining 5 American ETEC isolates belonged to 3 minor pathotypes (STaP+, STaP+F41+, and K99+F41+) also found among Belgian E coli isolates. Such isolates may be derivatives of STaP+K99+F41+ or STaP+K99+ ETEC after in vivo or in vitro loss of virulence genes and/or non-ETEC isolates, which have acquired virulence genes by in vivo transfer.  相似文献

An ELISA to detect circulating antibodies against K99 pili, a major attachment factor to intestinal epithelial cells of Escherichia coli in calves, was performed. Two methods of K99 pili purification were attempted. Best results in terms of purity of the K99 antigen were achieved following the method described by Karkhanis and Bhogal (1986). This procedure included a heat shock at 65°C during 25 min to release the pili and ultracentrifugation steps to purify the antigen. SDS-PAGE showed an 18 KDa major band, identified as the K99 pilus antigen after immunoblotting against reference antisera. The purified K99 antigen was then adsorbed to the ELISA microplates. High optical density was obtained in the ELISA using a pool of sera from immunized cows. No differences in antibody levels (P ≥ 0.05) could be detected between clinically healthy calves and those showing diarrhoea.  相似文献

The aetiology of neonatal porcine diarrhoea was studied in 15 different herds located in the north-western region of Venezuela. Of 56 strains of Escherichia coli analyzed, 16 (28.6%) were shown to produce heat-stable (STa) enterotoxin, as detected by infant mouse assay. Only four of these STa+ isolates also possessed the K88 pilus antigen, two were 987P+ and none possessed the K99 antigen, leaving 10 STa+ samples in which no pilus antigen was identified. Among the 40 STa negative samples were six K88+ specimens, one K99+, four 987P+, one which reacted as K88+ + K99+ and one K88+ + 987P+. Considering as pathogenic any strain showing at least one of the characters studied, pathogenic E. coli were detected with an overall frequency of 42.9%, being more prevalent during the second week of life. An electrophoretic analysis of the plasmid content of the field isolates of E. coli, revealed the presence of numerous species of extrachromosomal DNA, although no direction association could be made between a particular plasmid and any of the pathogenic characteristics identified. Results of Southern blot analysis indicate that the STa enterotoxin was preferentially encoded within an endemic plasmid of 4.9 Md. Other plasmids present in the E. coli isolates could be related to antibiotic resistance. With the exception of one strain, all E. coli isolates were resistant to more than one of the nine drugs tested; multiresistant E. coli were frequently isolated, including four strains which were resistant to seven antibiotics.  相似文献

All the K99+ Escherichia coli grown at 37 degrees C stained strongly with a peroxidase labelled K99 monoclonal antibody using a direct immunoperoxidase staining procedure. There was no reaction when these bacteria were cultured at 18 degrees C or when K99- E coli were grown at either temperature. The binding of the monoclonal antibody to K99 antigen was inhibited by OK antisera to heterologous K99+ E coli but OK antisera to E coli producing adhesins other than K99 were without effect. Using the slide agglutination test the reactions of the monoclonal antibody were identical to those of a polyclonal antiserum to K99 when both were used in parallel to examine 100 K99+ E coli from at least 10 somatic O groups and 1308 K99+ E coli from at least 82 different somatic O groups submitted for routine serological typing in England or the, USA. The monoclonal antibody reacted with K99+ E coli in cryostat sections of the ileum from a piglet infected with E coli strain B44 (O9: K30, K99, F41) but there was no reaction with similar material from piglets infected by E coli strains 1751 (O101: F41), X177/81 (O9: K103, 987P) or Abbotstown (O149: K91, K88ac).  相似文献
