Anaplasma marginale propagated in vitro showed an increasing rate of replication in a sequence of three experiments. The changes in the percentage of parasitized erythrocytes and identification of the organism in culture were monitored by the Giemsa-staining and the direct fluorescent antibody techniques. The ultrastructure of the organism in culture also was determined. The percentage of parasitized erythrocytes increased more than three times in the first experiment during a period of 8 days, and about ten times in the second experiment during a period of 14 days. After 8 days of observation of the primary culture in the third experiment, the trend of growth was more rapid than in the first and second experiment. The viability of the organism was verified by inoculation of susceptible calves, using 13- and 33-day cultures of the first and the second experiments, respectively. The primary cultures were subcultured twice by dilution with normal bovine erythrocytes.  相似文献

An immunohistochemistry (IHC) procedure for the detection of Campylobacter fetus antigens using an avidin-biotin complex technique was performed on formalin fixed bovine and ovine fetal tissues from 26 natural cases of Campylobacter spp. abortion (four ovine and 22 bovine). The species of Campylobacter isolated included C. fetus ssp. venerealis from 13 bovine fetuses, C. fetus ssp. fetus from two ovine and one bovine fetus, Campylobacter jejuni from seven bovine fetuses, Campylobacter lari from two ovine fetuses and an unspeciated Campylobacter species in one bovine fetus. Histologic lesions identified in the aborted fetuses included placentitis, serositis, pneumonia, gastroenteritis, hepatitis and encephalitis. Campylobacter fetus antigens were identified by IHC in 13 of 13 bovine fetuses from which C. fetus ssp. venerealis was isolated and in two of two ovine fetuses from which C. fetus ssp. fetus was isolated. The IHC stains were negative in tissues from seven bovine fetuses from which C. jejuni was isolated, one bovine fetus infected with C. fetus ssp. fetus, one bovine fetus infected with the unspeciated Campylobacter and two ovine fetuses infected with C. lari. In positive cases, the IHC stain most frequently identified bacteria in the lung and gastrointestinal tract. The C. fetus IHC procedure performed on formalin fixed tissues is a practical tool for the diagnosis of natural cases of ovine and bovine abortion caused by C. fetus.  相似文献

The purpose of this study is to elucidate some morphological characteristics of the bar-structure in bovine erythrocytes infected with Theileria sergenti. The bar-structure, the veil or the both were observed in infected erythrocytes. Infected bovine erythrocytes were classified into four types according to the included structures. Infected cells containing bar-structures increased with the progress of parasitemia. In Giemsa-stained blood preparations, bar-structures appeared purplish-red and measured a mean of 1.6 micron in length and up to 0.1 micron in width. Bar-structures were usually straight, sometimes S-shaped, and located in the periphery of infected erythrocytes. In the direct fluorescent antibody test with T. sergenti-positive bovine serum both piroplasms and bar-structures exhibited fluorescence. However, in the indirect fluorescent antibody test with monoclonal antibodies against piroplasms only piroplasms showed a highly specific fluorescence. Electron microscopy revealed that bar-structures were vesicular in structure, surrounded by a double membrane connected to the host cell membrane.  相似文献

In vitro cultivation of Babesia bigemina   总被引：13，自引：0，他引：13  
A strain of Babesia bigemina was isolated from an infected calf and propagated in vitro. Culture conditions included washing of infected and normal bovine erythrocytes in a special solution, and the use of a 5% to 10% (v/v) erythrocyte suspension in medium 199 (with 20% to 50% fresh normal bovine serum) at a depth of 4 mm in a 5% CO2, 2% O2, 93% N2 atmosphere. After 36 days in vitro and 9 subcultures, the cultured organism was inoculated into a susceptible calf. This calf developed clinical signs of disease and recovered when treated with 1% trypan blue solution. The strain was also reisolated from the second calf. The original isolate had been maintained in continuous in vitro cultivation for more than 99 days.  相似文献

Babesia sp. Xinjiang was isolated from a splenectomised sheep infested by Rhipicephalus sanguineus and Hylomma anatolicum anatolicum, collected from sheep and cattle in Xinjiang province. It was considered to be a novel ovine Babesia species on the basis of its morphology, pathogenicity, vector tick species and alignments of 18S ribosomal RNA (18S rRNA) and internal transcribed spacers (ITS) gene sequences. Continuous in vitro cultures of the ovine parasite were established using infected sheep blood. In RPMI 1640 medium with 7.5% sheep red blood cells (RBCs) maintained in an incubator at 37 °C and 5% CO(2), the percentage of parasitized erythrocytes (PPE) peaked at 10% in 24- and 6-well plates. It increased to 20-50% with the same culture medium but with 2.5% RBC in 75 cm(2) flasks. Two clonal lines of Babesia sp. Xinjiang were screened using the limiting dilution method. Growth characteristics of these lines in vitro were measured by a microtiter-based spectrophotometric method and from the PPE. The generation time in sheep erythrocytes was between 15.20 h and 16.27 h. Furthermore, the host range of parasite was identified with in vitro culture and in vivo infection. Erythrocytes of sheep, cattle, sika deer and humans could be invaded into by lines in vitro, but the parasites could not propagate in human erythrocytes. The parasites could not enter erythrocytes from goats in vitro. However, in vivo, only sheep could be infected by lines. Finally, a Babesia sp. Xinjiang-like parasite (which shared 99.5% identity with the original strain of Babesia sp. Xinjiang) was isolated using this in vitro culture system from 1 of 19 sheep blood samples collected from western Gansu province, China.  相似文献

The G and P genes of bovine, ovine and caprine respiratory syncytial (RS) viruses were analyzed by RNase A one-dimensional fingerprinting, using A51908 as the reference strain. Antisense G or P RNA probes of bovine RS virus strain A 51908 were hybridized to total RNA extracted from bovine turbinate cells infected with bovine, ovine or caprine RS virus strains. The RNA:RNA heteroduplexes were digested with RNase A and the resistant products were analyzed by gel electrophoresis. Comparative analysis of the cleavage patterns revealed heterogeneity among bovine, ovine and caprine RS virus isolates. Ovine RS virus strains generated RNA cleavage patterns more distantly related to the bovine or caprine RS virus strains, particularly in the G gene. Statistical analysis of the results obtained indicated that genetic differences between bovine and ovine viruses were larger, compared with the ones among bovine strains themselves. The same analysis also revealed a close genetic relation among bovine and caprine strains. These results are discussed in terms of ungulate RS virus genetic variation and vaccine development.  相似文献

Ninety-five strains of Escherichia coli isolated from cases of bovine mastitis were examined for the possession of some of the possible virulence determinants. Ten strains which caused haemagglutination of bovine and ovine erythrocytes were considered to be fimbriated and an additional strain caused agglutination of chicken erythrocytes. Colicines were produced by fifteen strains and in three strains the colicine was identified as Col V. Forty-one of 71 strains that were examined serologically possessed capsular or envelope K antigens.  相似文献

Tongue epithelia infected with each of the 7 serotypes of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) were used to evaluate in vivo and in vitro systems for the detection of FMDV. Cattle inoculated by the intradermal route in the tongue (IDL) and suckling mice inoculated intraperitoneally were compared for susceptibility to FMDV with freshly prepared bovine thyroid cell cultures; cultures from cryopreserved bovine thyroid, bone marrow, mammary gland, myocardium, tongue, ovary and kidney cells; cultures from cryopreserved embryonic ovine kidney, newborn ovine kidney, ovine testicle, bone marrow, and chloroid plexus cells; and the continuous porcine kidney cell lines MVPK-1 and S6. The mean titers determined for each serotype in each system were statistically compared. The FMDV titers obtained in freshly prepared bovine thyroid cell cultures and by cattle IDL inoculation were the highest and were statistically indistinguishable. The titers obtained by suckling mouse inoculation were significantly lower than the titers obtained in thyroid cultures for serotypes A, C, Asia 1, and SAT 3. The cattle IDL assay was significantly more sensitive than the mouse assay for serotype A. The cell cultures from the cryopreserved newborn ovine kidney and embryonic ovine kidney were significantly less susceptible to serotype Asia 1 when compared with the fresh bovine thyroid cultures, but not significantly different when compared with the cattle assay for all serotypes. Cryopreservation of bovine thyroid cells directly after trypsinization resulted in the loss of susceptibility to FMDV serotype SAT 2. The other cryopreserved cell culture systems exhibited no or minimal susceptibility to all 7 serotypes, or exhibited considerable inconsistency. The established cell lines MVPK-1 and S6 were not susceptible to serotype A, and were less sensitive to serotype C than other culture systems. Quality control of cell cultures used to evaluate field specimens for FMDV was critical. The cell cultures of cryopreserved ovine kidney cells provided the most practical diagnostic system.  相似文献

Ovine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM) may express several IgG receptor (Fc gamma receptor; FcR) subsets. To study this, model particles (opsonized erythrocytes; EA), which are selectively handled by certain FcR subsets of human macrophages were used in cross-inhibition studies and found to react in a similar manner with FcR subsets of sheep macrophages. In experiments with monoclonal antibodies against subsets of human FcR, human erythrocytes (E) treated with human anti-D-IgG (anti-D-EAhu) and sheep E treated with bovine IgG1 (Bo1-EAs) were handled selectively by human macrophage FcRI and FcRII, respectively. Rabbit-IgG-coated sheep E (Rb-EAs) were recognized by FcRI, FcRII and possibly also by FcRIII of human macrophages. Anti-D-EAhu, Bo1-EAs and Rb-EAs were also ingested by sheep BMM. Competitive inhibition tests, using various homologous and heterologous IgG isotypes as fluid phase inhibitors and the particles used as FcR-specific tools in man (anti-D-EAhu and Bo1-EAs), revealed a heterogeneity of FcR also in sheep BMM. Thus, ingestion of anti-D-EAhu by ovine BMM was inhibited by low concentrations of competitor IgG from rabbit or man in the fluid phase, but not at all by bovine IgG1, whereas ingestion of Bo1-EAs was inhibited by bovine IgG1. This suggested that anti-D-EAhu were recognized by a FcR subset distinct from that recognizing bovine-IgG1. It was concluded that sheep BMM express functional analogs of human macrophage FcRI and FcRII and that Bo1-EAs and anti-D-EAhu are handled by distinct subsets of BMM FcR. All EAhu tested (EAhu treated with anti-D, sheep IgG1 or sheep IgG2) were ingested to a lower degree than EAs. This inefficient phagocytosis could be enhanced by treatment of EAhu with antiglobulin from the rabbit, suggesting that it is caused by a low degree of activity of opsonizing antibodies rather than special properties of the erythrocytes themselves. Several lines of evidence suggested that both FcR subsets of ovine BMM recognize both ovine IgG1 and IgG2. In contrast, bovine IgG1 reacts with one FcR subset and bovine IgG2 interacts inefficiently with all FcR of ovine BMM.  相似文献

The effect of sub-minimal inhibitory concentrations of gentamicin on the haemagglutinating activity of Bordetella bronchiseptica was studied. Gentamicin exerted dissimilar effect on the production of haemagglutinin to calf and dog erythrocytes. The drug significantly reduced the haemagglutinating titres of calf-negative strains with dog red blood cells while it caused only a slight decrease in the haemagglutinating titres of calf-positive strains with bovine erythrocytes. The results support the view that bovine haemagglutinin is an adhesin of B. bronchiseptica.  相似文献

Major surface protein 1 (MSP1) of the cattle pathogen Anaplasma marginale (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae) is a complex of two proteins, MSP1a and MSP1b. Previous studies demonstrated that MSP1a and MSP1b are adhesins for bovine erythrocytes, while only MSP1a proved to be an adhesin for tick cells. In this study, a tick cell culture system for propagation of A. marginale was used to develop an infection inhibition assay for testing the ability of antisera to block infection of A. marginale for cultured tick cells. A. marginale derived from cell culture was incubated with various antisera prior to inoculation onto cell monolayers. The monolayers were harvested 7 days post-inoculation and A. marginale in the cultures was quantified using an antigen detection ELISA. Antisera tested in the infection inhibition assay were derived from persistently infected cattle, from cattle immunized with A. marginale purified from bovine erythrocytes, and from rabbits and cattle that were immunized with the recombinant MSP1a, MSP1b and MSP1 complex. Antibodies from cattle persistently infected with A. marginale, cattle immunized with A. marginale from bovine erythrocytes or cattle immunized with the recombinant MSP1 complex did not inhibit the infectivity of A. marginale for tick cells. Antiserum from rabbits immunized with MSP1a and MSP1b (individually or combined) reduced infection of both the Virginia and Oklahoma isolates of A. marginale for tick cells by 25-70%. Likewise, antisera from cattle immunized with recombinant MSP1a or MSP1b inhibited infection of tick cells by 26-37%. These results further confirm the role of MSP1 complex proteins in infection of tick cells. Lack of inhibition of infection by antisera from naturally infected cattle or cattle immunized with whole organisms suggests that the bovine immune response is not directed toward blocking infection of A. marginale for tick cells and may contribute to the continued infectivity of the pathogen for ticks.  相似文献

A naturally occurring hemagglutinating factor to tanned human O positive, ovine and porcine erythrocytes was found in extracts from Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis. This hemagglutinating factor did not react with bovine, equine or avian erythrocytes. This factor was demonstrated by microscopic examination of the tanned erythrocytes and by the passive hemagglutination assay.  相似文献

Eight bovine, two ovine and one porcine primary hepatocellular neoplasms were found during a five year survey of tumors from meat packing plants. The tumors varied in size and usually were yellow-grey. Some were encapsulated and divided into lobules by fibrous septa. The tumor cells closely resembled normal hepatocytes and were arranged in a trabecular pattern or in sheets with caverns or were a mixture of the two. Eosinophilic intranuclear inclusions were present in one bovine and one ovine case.  相似文献

Babesia divergens was cultivated in sheep erythrocytes in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% Fetal Calf Serum (FCS) or sheep serum. In vitro cultures in sheep red blood cells were initiated with human erythrocytes infected in vitro with B. divergens Rouen 1987 or with gerbil blood infected with several isolates from bovine origin. After the first subcultures on sheep erythrocytes, a ten-fold multiplication of the parasites was obtained within 48 h. Erythrocytes from three splenectomized sheep were infected in vitro with B. divergens; when parasitaemia reached 10%, the animals were inoculated with homologous parasitized erythrocytes. All sheep expressed hyperthermia with a peak between the 6th and the 9th day post-infection (p-i) and a transitory parasitaemia 10 days p-i. In vitro primary cultures were performed on two of these sheep, demonstrating the parasite persistence at very low parasitaemia in the infected animals. Splenectomized sheep can be used as a new model for B. divergens chronic infection.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the kinetics of noncytopathic bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) multiplication and synthesis of BVDV specific RNA and proteins in ovine cells (SFT-R) during a one-step growth curve. The virus titre and RNA level were determined by focus-forming assay and real time RT-PCR. The RNA synthesis was detected by Northern blot while synthesis of E2 and NS3 proteins was assayed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. The results showed that synthesis of viral RNA is initiated at 4 h, NS3 and E2 proteins are detectable at 6-7 h and the replication cycle is complete at 10-12 h. Additionally, we provide evidence that NS2-3 protein was cleaved in ovine cells early during infection and in proliferated leukocytes of acutely infected sheep. This study showed that synthesis of BVDV RNA and proteins in ovine cells occurs at similar times as found in bovine cells.  相似文献

The in vitro cell tropism of non-cytopathogenic (ncp) and cytopathogenic (cp) bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) was studied in primary dissociated brain cell cultures derived from ovine fetuses of different gestational ages. The cell types infected were identified by double immunofluorescence using antibodies against BVDV and cell type-specific markers. In cultures infected with ncp BVDV viral antigen was present in neurofilament (NF 200 kDa)-positive neurons, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-positive astrocytes and fibronectin-expressing cells. Estimation of the percentages of individual cell types infected with ncp BVDV indicated a tropism for NF 200-positive neurons. In cultures infected with cp BVD virus cytopathic changes were observed beginning at 40 hours post infection. Viral antigen was present in vacuolated NF 200-, GFAP- and fibronectin-positive cells. In comparison with non-infected control cultures a considerable reduction of the number of the different cell types was seen.  相似文献

Immunological parameters were studied among 23 late-term bovine fetuses. Epizootic bovine abortion (EBA) disease was induced in fetuses by feeding Ornithodoros coriaceus ticks on pregnant heifers. A spirochaete-like microorganism was detected in the blood of diseased fetuses and in inapparent natural infections in some abattoir-collected fetuses. Fetuses were classified according to stages of disease: EBA diseased (n = 10), EBA infected (n = 7) and normal (n = 6). Using flow cytometry, the presence of surface immunoglobulins (sIg) and peanut agglutinin (PNA) receptors were used to detect B and T lymphocytes, respectively. In peripheral blood of normal fetuses, most lymphocytes were identified as T or B cells, whereas about 20 per cent of lymphocytes in EBA diseased fetuses did not reveal the sIg or PNA receptor markers (null cells). Size and shape analyses by flow cytometry detected a population of enlarged lymphocytes in the EBA diseased fetuses. The numbers of cells bearing determinants reactive with monoclonal antibodies specific for bovine T cells (B26A and B29A) and B cells (TH21A) were considerably less than those expressing the PNA receptor and sIg. These results suggested that the monoclonal antibodies were binding to differentiation antigens which were not consistently expressed on the fetal cells. Radio-immunodiffusion was used to measure bovine IgM, IgG1 and IgG2 in fetal serum. The quantities of immunoglobulins were markedly increased in animals infected with the spirochaete-like organism (groups 1 and 2) and were assumed to result from fetal antibody synthesis.  相似文献

An unusual population of leukocytes was observed in the peripheral blood of a cow with a large tumor burden, using flow microfluorimetry. This new population accounted for 50% of the total cells in the peripheral blood of this animal. These cells expressed the p150,95 molecule (bovine CD11c equivalent), identified by the monoclonal antibody C5B6, a molecule found on myeloid cells and activated lymphocytes. The new population did not express the pan T molecules BoCD2 (the bovine T11 equivalent), BoCD5 (the bovine CD5 equivalent) or surface IgM. Isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells maintained in bulk culture were able to kill autologous tumor cells and BHV-1 infected A549 in an NK-like assay. In vitro cytotoxicity by cells cultured from the peripheral blood of this animal was augmented 2- to 4-fold by the addition of IL-2.  相似文献

The osmotic fragility and the surface structure of erythrocytes obtained from 3 calves infected with Theileria sergenti and from 3 phlebotomized ones were compared. As the parasitemia progressed, the osmotic fragility of the erythrocytes significantly increased in the infected calves. Particularly the hemolysis ratio in the isotonic area (21.5-94.1%) obviously increased. On the other hand, the percentage of parasitized cells in the erythrocytes did not show so much high values (16.1-21.3%). Similar phenomenon was found in each different percentage of erythrocytes suspension which was separated from density gradient centrifugation. No significant difference in the serum osmotic pressure between the infected calves and the phlebotomized calves was found. By scanning microscopy, the erythrocytes of infected calves, which were collected at the crisis period of parasitemia, were almost completely deformed and showed echinocyte form. Moreover, the appearance ratio of echinocyte form in the erythrocytes population was superior to the percentage of parasitized erythrocytes. Similar membranous alterations were also observed in the erythrocytes of grazing cattle in the crisis period of the theileriosis. It was proven that abnormality of osmotic fragility and morphological disorders of erythrocytes occurred not only in parasitized erythrocytes but also in non-parasitized ones in T. sergenti parasitemia.  相似文献
