OBJECTIVE: To characterise eight isolates of a Gram-negative organism obtained from the upper respiratory tract of cattle showing evidence of mild upper respiratory tract disease. DESIGN: The isolates were compared with the five recognised species within the genus Mannheimia - M haemolytica, M glucosida, M granulomatis, M ruminalis and M varigena--using a range of phenotypic and genotypic methods. RESULTS: Phenotypic characterisation indicated that the isolates belonged to the trehalose-negative [Pasteurella] haemolytica complex. This complex has recently been reorganised into five species within the new genus Mannheimia. Ribotyping performed using HindIII and a computerised analysis system indicated that the eight Australian isolates formed a distinct cluster that was related to, but different from, the five recognised species of Mannheimia. The 16S rRNA sequence of one isolate (BNO311) was determined and a phylogenetic analysis performed. Isolate BNO311 was distinct from the five named Mannheimia spp but did join a larger cluster consisting of rRNA cluster IV (M varigena) and the unnamed rRNA cluster V of Mannheimia. DNA:DNA hybridisation between isolate BNO311 and M haemolytica NCTC 9380T, M granulomatis P411 and Actinobacillus ligniersii NCTC 4189T all suggested similarities of approximately 30%. CONCLUSIONS: These phenotypic and genotypic characterisation studies suggest that the eight Australian isolates represent a new species of Mannheimia. Until further characterisation studies are performed, we are unwilling to propose a name for this taxon, preferring to refer to this possible new species as Bisgaard taxon 39 of cluster V of Mannheimia. 相似文献

tRNA-intergenic spacer PCR (tDNA-PCR) was evaluated for its effectiveness in differentiating Pasteurella and Mannheimia (sub)species predominantly of ruminant origin. For this purpose, 38 reference strains and 13 field isolates belonging to both genera were investigated. tDNA-PCR enabled discrimination of all Pasteurella species tested (Pasteurella (P.) aerogenes, P. avium, P. canis, P. lymphangitidis, P. multocida, P. trehalosi). For the differentiation of the subspecies of P. multocida, an additional dulcitol reaction was required. Two of the five so far-defined Mannheimia species, M. granulomatis and M. varigena, had a distinct fingerprinting profile. The remaining three phylogenetically highly related species (M. haemolytica, M. glucosida, and M. ruminalis) clustered together. Nevertheless, M. ruminalis is non-haemolytic, and M. haemolytica and M. glucosida can be differentiated on the basis of two additional phenotypic characteristics (beta-glucosidase and aesculin hydrolysis). In conclusion, tDNA-PCR is a useful tool in differentiating organisms belonging to the genera Pasteurella and Mannheimia. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To perform a comprehensive phenotypic characterisation of 35 isolates of bacteria previously identified as haemolytic Pasteurella-Actinobacillus and obtained from cattle and sheep. DESIGN: The 35 isolates that had been obtained from Australian animals, 30 from cattle and five from sheep, were compared with reference strains of the five recognised species of the genus Mannheimia--M. haemolytica, M. glucosida, M. granulomatis, M. ruminalis and M. varigena. RESULTS: Thirty-four of the isolates could be confidently assigned to three species of the genus Mannheimia. Twenty-nine were M. haemolytica, with 25 being isolated from cattle and four from sheep. All but three of the bovine M. haemolytica were isolated from pneumonic lungs. Of the three remaining bovine M. haemolytica isolates, one was obtained in pure culture from a bovine milk sample and the other two as part of a mixed flora associated with a middle ear infection of a calf suffering mucosal disease. Of the four ovine M. haemolytica isolates, two were isolated in pure culture from milk and two, also in pure culture, from pneumonic lungs. Three bovine isolates were identified as M. granulomatis--one from a tongue abscess, one from a jaw abscess and one from a lung showing suppurative bronchopneumonia. Two bovine isolates were identified as M. varigena--one coming from an udder and the other from a spleen. The available diagnostic records provided no information on whether these isolates were associated with a disease process. The remaining isolate was obtained from an ovine tongue abscess and could not be assigned to a recognised species within the genus Mannheimia. CONCLUSION: The study represents the first time that M. haemolytica, M. granulomatis and M. varigena have been recognised as being present in cattle and sheep in Australia. Veterinary laboratories that encounter Pasteurella-Actinobacillus-like organisms from cattle and sheep should attempt as complete a characterisation as possible to help improve our knowledge of the disease potential of these organsims. 相似文献

Trehalose-negative strains of the Pasteurella haemolytica complex have recently been transferred to a new genus, Mannheimia. This genus presently consists of five named species: M. haemolytica, M. glucosida, M. granulomatis, M. ruminalis and M. varigena. The purpose of this study was to investigate the occurrence of these species and lesions associated with these isolates in Denmark. In all 106 M. haemolytica-like strains isolated from pathological material from cattle, sheep, pigs and hares submitted to the Danish Veterinary Laboratory between 1994 and 1998 were investigated. Phenotypic characterization and ribotyping were used for identification in addition to sequencing of the 16S rRNA genes for selected strains. The species allocation was determined by comparison to results from a previous polyphasic taxonomic study. Seventy-one percent of the strains belonged to M. haemolytica, 18% to M. varigena and 8% to unnamed groups within the genus Mannheimia. Single isolates identified as M. glucosida and P. trehalosi, respectively, were detected. Two isolates belonged to M. granulomatis. Forty-three percent of the strains belonged to serotype 1, 41% were untypeable, while the rest belonged to serotypes 2, 7, 9, and 16. The present investigation also showed that a simplified phenotypic characterization using Diatabs Diagnostic Tablets (Rosco, Denmark) represents a useful method for obtaining a quick and reliable species identification. Finally, the investigation confirmed that serotyping does not represent a reliable method for species identification. The heterogeneity of species associated with bovine "pasteurellosis" should be considered in future studies to improve our understanding of the pathogenesis of pneumonic disease. 相似文献

Eleven serotypes (1, 2, 5-9, 12-14 and 16) have been demonstrated within Mannheimia haemolytica. Subsequent serotyping of 166 Mannheimia haemolytica-like strains, genetically and phenotyphically distinct from Mannheimia haemolytica, and isolated from ruminants, pigs, hares and rabbits showed that 13.2% were typeable, 19 of which were serotype 11 representing strains now being classified as M. glucosida. In addition, three strains belonged to serotypes 6, 9 and 16, respectively. Additionally, the serotyping results of 98 (P.) haemolytica-like isolates from non-ruminant sources collected by the UK Veterinary Investigation Centres during the period 1982-1996 were investigated. None of these isolates have been kept, making further genetic characterization impossible. Among these isolates, 25.5% were typeable representing serotypes 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13 and 15. Substantial evidence has been reported indicating that M. haemolytica-like isolates from non-ruminant sources represent species different from M. haemolytica. The present investigation underlines that serotyping does not represent a reliable method for the identification of M. haemolytica or M. glucosida. These observations emphasize that extended phenotypic and genetic characterization is necessary for the proper identification of these organisms. 相似文献

Mannheimia haemolytica is the principal bacterium isolated from respiratory disease in feedlot cattle and is a significant component of enzootic pneumonia in all neonatal calves. A commensal of the nasopharynx, M. haemolytica is an opportunist, gaining access to the lungs when host defenses are compromised by stress or infection with respiratory viruses or mycoplasma. Although several serotypes act as commensals, A1 and A6 are the most frequent isolates from pneumonic lungs. Potential virulence factors include adhesin, capsular polysaccharide, fimbriae, iron-regulated outer membrane proteins, leukotoxin (Lkt), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), lipoproteins, neuraminidase, sialoglycoprotease and transferrin-binding proteins. Of these, Lkt is pivotal in induction of pneumonia. Lkt-mediated infiltration and destruction of neutrophils and other leukocytes impairs bacterial clearance and contributes to development of fibrinous pneumonia. LPS may act synergistically with Lkt, enhancing its effects and contributing endotoxic activity. Antibiotics are employed extensively in the feedlot industry, both prophylactically and therapeutically, but their efficacy varies because of inconsistencies in diagnosis and treatment regimes and development of antibiotic resistance. Vaccines have been used for many decades, even though traditional bacterins failed to demonstrate protection and their use often enhanced disease in vaccinated animals. Modern vaccines use culture supernatants containing Lkt and other soluble antigens, or bacterial extracts, alone or combined with bacterins. These vaccines have 50-70% efficacy in prevention of M. haemolytica pneumonia. Effective control of M. haemolytica pneumonia is likely to require a combination of more definitive diagnosis, efficacious vaccines, therapeutic intervention and improved management practices. 相似文献

Over a period of 17 years, 84 bacterial isolates identified as Mannheimia haemolytica or M. glucosida, and 52 isolates identified as Pasteurella trehalosi were detected in the lungs of domestic and wild ruminants in the French Alps. The isolates were serotyped according to their surface capsular antigens, and those sharing common antigens were further characterized by pulsed field gel electrophoresis. The results showed that the bacterial isolates included in the study clustered according to the host species from which they were isolated. These findings indicate that the transmission of serotypes of M. haemolytica, M. glucosida or P. trehalosi from an animal host in which they are common to another species sharing the same geographical space may be a rare epidemiological event. 相似文献

A surveillance study was undertaken to examine the population dynamics and antimicrobial resistance of Mannheimia haemolytica isolated from feedlot cattle. A total of 416 isolates were collected from the nasopharynx either upon entry or exit from two feedlots in southern Alberta, Canada. Isolates were serotyped, characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and tested for susceptibility to ten antimicrobial agents via disk diffusion. Resistant isolates were screened by PCR for select antimicrobial-resistance gene determinants. Isolates were highly diverse, with 335 unique pulsed-field profiles identified among 147 strongly related clusters (similarity ≥ 85%). Clonal spread of isolates throughout the feedlots was limited and no clear association was found between genetic relatedness of M. haemolytica and sampling event (entry or exit). Pulsed-field profiles sharing a common serotype and resistance phenotype tended to cluster together. The majority of isolates were identified as serotype 2 (74.5%) although both serotype 1 (11.9%) and 6 (12.7%) were detected. Only 9.54% of isolates exhibited antimicrobial resistance. Resistance to oxytetracycline was most prevalent (n=16), followed by ampicillin (n=10), and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (n=7). Multi-drug resistance was observed in five isolates. The tetH gene was detected in all but two oxytetracycline resistant isolates. Other detectable resistance determinates included ermX and bla(ROB-1). In the two feedlots examined, M. haemolytica exhibited considerable genetic diversity and limited resistance to common veterinary antibiotics. Garnering further information on the linkage between genotype and phenotype should contribute toward a better understanding of the pathogenesis and dissemination of M. haemolytica in feedlots. 相似文献

Pneumonia caused by Mannheimia haemolytica is an important disease of cattle (BO), domestic sheep (DS, Ovis aries) and bighorn sheep (BHS, Ovis canadensis). Leukotoxin (Lkt) produced by M. haemolytica is cytolytic to all leukocyte subsets of these three species. Although it is certain that CD18, the beta subunit of beta(2) integrins, mediates Lkt-induced cytolysis of leukocytes, whether CD18 of all three beta(2) integrins, LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18), Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) and CR4 (CD11c/CD18), mediates Lkt-induced cytolysis of BO, DS and BHS leukocytes remains a controversy. Based on antibody inhibition experiments, earlier studies suggested that LFA-1, but not Mac-1 and CR-4, serves as a receptor for M. haemolytica Lkt. PMNs express all three beta(2) integrins, and they are the leukocyte subset that is most susceptible to Lkt. Therefore we hypothesized that all three beta(2) integrins serve as the receptor for Lkt. The objective of this study was to determine whether Mac-1 of BO, DS and BHS serves as a receptor for Lkt. cDNAs for CD11b of BO, DS and BHS were transfected into a Lkt-non-susceptible cell line along with cDNAs for CD18 of BO, DS and BHS, respectively. Transfectants stably expressing BO, DS or BHS Mac-1 specifically bound Lkt. These transfectants were lysed by Lkt in a concentration-dependent manner. Increase in intracellular [Ca(2+)](i) was observed in transfectants following exposure to low concentrations of Lkt indicating signal transduction through secondary messengers. Collectively, these results indicate that Mac-1 from these three species serves as a receptor for M. haemolytica Lkt. 相似文献

Mannheimia haemolytica leukotoxin (Lkt) is the major factor that contributes to lung injury in bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis. Supernatant preparations containing Lkt produced by M. haemolytica serotype 1, grown in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with BSA or FBS and without supplements were evaluated during this study. Analysis of obtained Lkt showed presence of 105 kDa antigen (SDS-PAGE electrophoresis). The obtained bacterial protein fraction estimated as Lkt was detected by Western blotting with mouse monoclonal (Mab 605 and Mab 601) anti-Lkt antibodies. No significant differences were found in obtained leukotoxin between wildtype and reference M. haemolytica strains. Our studies showed that growth in media supplemented with BSA or FBS had no significant influence on leukotoxin production. When BSA or FBS supplements were used, additional protein fractions in electrophoregrams SDS-PAGE were observed. These protein bands did not react with Mab 605 and/or Mab 601 in Western blotting analysis. Lkt immunogenicity was detected by immunoblotting with sera from Lkt immunized rabbits and calves. 相似文献

Mannheimia haemolytica is an important etiological agent of pneumonia in domestic sheep (DS, Ovis aries). Leukotoxin (Lkt) produced by this organism is the principal virulence factor responsible for the acute inflammation and lung injury characteristic of M. haemolytica caused disease. Previously, we have shown that the leukocyte-specific integrins, beta(2) integrins, serve as the receptor for Lkt. Although it is certain that CD18, the beta subunit of beta(2) integrins, mediates Lkt-induced cytolysis of leukocytes, it is not clear whether CD18 of all three beta(2) integrins, LFA-1, Mac-1 and CR4, mediates Lkt-induced cytolysis of DS leukocytes. Since polymorphonuclear leukocytes, which express all three beta(2) integrins, are the leukocyte subset that is most susceptible to Lkt, we hypothesized that all three beta(2) integrins serve as the receptor for Lkt. The objective of this study was to determine whether DS LFA-1 serves as a receptor for M. haemolytica Lkt. We cloned the cDNA for DS CD11a, the alpha subunit of LFA-1, and co-transfected it along with the previously cloned cDNA for DS CD18, into a Lkt-non-suceptible cell line. Transfectants stably expressing DS LFA-1 were bound by Lkt. More importantly, Lkt lysed the DS LFA-1 transfectants in a concentration-dependent manner. Pre-incubation of Lkt with a Lkt-neutralizing monoclonal antibody (MAb), or pre-incubation of transfectants with MAbs specific for DS CD11a or CD18, inhibited Lkt-induced cytolysis of the transfectants. Exposure of LFA-1 transfectants to low concentrations of Lkt resulted in elevation of intracellular [Ca(2+)](i). Taken together, these results indicate that DS LFA-1 serves as a receptor for M. haemolytica Lkt. 相似文献

Mannheimia haemolytica serotype 1 (S1), S6 and S2 are the most common bacterial isolates found in shipping fever pneumonia in beef cattle. Currently used vaccines against M. haemolytica do not provide complete protection against the disease. Research with M. haemolytica outer membrane proteins (OMPs) has shown that antibodies to one particular OMP from S1, PlpE, may be important in immunity. Recombinant PlpE (rPlpE) is highly immunogenic in cattle, and the acquired immunity markedly enhanced resistance to experimental challenge. We previously demonstrated that the immunodominant epitope (R2) is located between residues 26 and 76 on the N-terminus of PlpE from a reference S1 strain (). This region consists of eight hexapeptide repeats. The potential of this epitope as a vaccine or supplement to commercial vaccines is dependant on its state of conservation amongst isolates of the three serotypes. To determine this, we sequenced plpE genes from 32 isolates. The sequences from S1 and S6 were identical with one exception. Substantial variation was observed among sequences from S2 strains, particularly in the R2 region of the protein. These variations in S2 isolates range from 3 to 28 hexapeptide repeats. Calculated molecular weight of PlpE from S1 and S6 isolates was 37 kDa, where as PlpE from S2 strains ranged from 30 to 50 kDa. These similarities and differences were demonstrated by western blot. Competitive binding assay was used to determine that antibody against rPlpE from S1 binds native PlpE on surfaces of both S1 and S2 cells. 相似文献

Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica biotype A serotype1 (A1) is the primary bacterial agent responsible for the clinical signs and pathophysiologic events in bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis. The goal of this study was to determine the prevalence of other serotypes of M. haemolytica biotype A organisms obtained from the upper Midwest diagnostic laboratories. A total of 147 M. haemolytica isolates were collected from Minnesota, South Dakota, and Michigan. Isolates were tested against M. haemolytica antisera obtained from the National Animal Disease Center, Ames, Iowa. Results indicated that M. haemolytica serotype 1 represented approximately 60%, serotype 6 represented 26%, and serotype 2 represented 7% of the total examined isolates. In addition, 7% of the isolates were serotype 9, 11, or untypable. This finding suggests that M. haemolytica serotypes other than serotype 1 can be isolated from the lung lesions of diseased cattle and seem to be capable of causing the pathologic changes observed in the lung with pneumonic pasteurellosis. 相似文献

Over a period of 20 years, a total of 207 Mannheimia haemolytica samples were isolated from calves affected with pneumonic pasteurellosis and serotyped by the indirect haemagglutination test. Serotypes A1 (102 isolates), A2 (47 isolates) and A6 (42 isolates) were most common; in addition, 16 isolates were serotypes A7, A13, A14 or untypable. The relative prevalence of serotype A6 has increased recently in Japan, as has been reported from other countries. The results of this study provide useful information towards the design of efficient vaccines for the prevention of M. haemolytica infection in Japan. 相似文献

Mannheimia haemolytica A1 is the causative agent of bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis, a major cause of sickness, death, and economic loss to the feedlot cattle industry. M. haemolytica A1 produces autoinducer-2 (AI-2) like molecules that are capable of inducing quorum sensing system 2 of Vibrio harveyi. This interspecies quorum sensing system has been shown to regulate the expression of virulence genes in several pathogenic bacteria. The protein central to the production of AI-2 is LuxS. To determine if quorum sensing is involved in the regulation of virulence genes in M. haemolytica A1, a luxS mutant was constructed by replacing luxS with a cat cassette. This mutant was verified by PCR analysis, Southern hybridization, as well as its inability to induce bioluminescence in the V. harveyi reporter strain. RT-PCR analysis showed there was no difference in leukotoxin (lktC) mRNA levels, however there were increased mRNA levels of putative virulence associated genes, transferrin binding protein B (tbpB), adhesin (ahs) and capsule biosynthesis (nmaA). Electron microscopy showed that the level of encapsulation in the mutant is higher than the parent. Additionally, the mutant was slightly more adherent to bovine tracheal cells than the parent. In vitro competition assays showed the mutant out-competed the parent under iron-restricted conditions. However, in a calf challenge, the parent was the dominant isolate recovered. 相似文献
