两株对虾幼体弧菌病病原的分离和鉴定

从患弧菌病的凡纳滨对虾(Litopenaeus vannamei)幼体中分离到两株病原菌zouA和zouB, 常规形态和生理生化试验表明均为弧菌属菌种, 弧菌编码鉴定系统分别鉴定为溶藻弧菌(Vibrio alginolyticus)和副溶血弧菌(V. parahaemolyticus)。副溶血弧菌R72H序列检测结果进一步证实菌株zouB为副溶血弧菌。对菌株zouA的16S rRNA基因序列分析表明该菌株与溶藻弧菌、副溶血弧菌等弧菌的相似性均高于98%, 相互间不能区分; HSP60基因序列分析表明该菌株与溶藻弧菌相似性达98%以上, 而与所有其它弧菌的相似性不到92%。结合表型和分子特征的鉴定结果, 菌株zouA和zouB分别被鉴定为溶藻弧菌和副溶血弧菌。     

溶藻弧菌溶血活性检测及溶血素基因、启动子区功能

[目的]研究溶藻弧菌的溶血现象,溶血素基因vah的分布及vah基因、vah启动子区对溶藻弧菌溶血活性的贡献.[方法]对46株分离自华南沿海水生动物体内和海水的溶藻弧菌环境株及溶藻弧菌标准株1.1587进行溶血实验;比较具有溶血活性的溶藻弧菌野生株ZJ051、vah基因大肠杆菌BL21重组表达株、vah缺失突变株和基因回补株间溶血能力的差异;检测vah基因在溶藻弧菌中的分布,比较溶血株与非溶血株vah基因及上游启动子区的序列差异.[结果]47.8％的溶藻弧菌菌株产生溶血活性,因此溶血现象普遍存在于溶藻弧菌环境株中;vah基因的表达产物具有溶血活性,vah基因缺失突变株不具有溶血活性,而vah基因回补株恢复溶血活性.vah基因普遍存在于溶藻弧菌中,且基因序列非常相似,氨基酸序列完全相同,然而不同菌株的启动子区第188-190碱基位点存在差异.[结论]溶藻弧菌vah基因是造成溶藻弧菌溶血的直接原因,但溶藻弧菌溶血能力的差异并非是由vah基因本身差异决定,极有可能与启动子区第188-190碱基位点相关.     

溶藻弧菌的毒力相关基因及其对小鼠的致病力

【目的】通过多重PCR检测和小鼠动物实验,对溶藻弧菌环境分离株的毒力因子进行评估,以期获得较强致病菌株和弱致病菌株之间的差别,并初步探讨该菌毒力因子对小鼠的致病机理。【方法】采用多重PCR体系检测毒力相关基因,我妻氏血平板溶血实验和平板酶活实验检测溶藻弧菌株的溶血素和胞外酶;以昆明小白鼠为实验动物,攻毒方式为灌胃和腹腔注射,根据小鼠的致病症状和死亡情况来分析和对比溶藻弧菌的胞外分泌物以及菌体本身的毒性。【结果】10株溶藻弧菌产淀粉酶、卵磷脂酶的比例为100%,脂肪酶、明胶酶次之(为70%),脲酶均未被检出;神奈川现象阳性菌株率为60%。毒力基因检测的结果显示10株溶藻弧菌中toxR、Collagenase、tlh、FlaA、ompW、AspA、fur这些与毒力有关的基因均有分布,而toxS、trh、tdh、UreR并未检出。10株溶藻弧菌中的VA009对小鼠显示了较强的致病性,能造成腹腔积液,经腹腔注射感染此菌后7 d内死亡率高达80%。【结论】不同的溶藻弧菌对小鼠的致病性存在较大差异,溶藻弧菌菌体本身比胞外分泌物对其毒性的贡献要大,而副溶血弧菌的毒性则由其胞外分泌物起主要作用;比较我们筛选出的强致病菌株与弱致病菌株,其上述毒力基因的分布并没有差别,说明溶藻弧菌可能存在一套与副溶血弧菌不同的独立的毒力基因系统。

Phylogenetic study and identification of human pathogenic Vibrio species based on partial hsp60 gene sequences

The use of hsp60 gene sequences for phylogenetic study and identification of pathogenic marine vibrios was investigated. A 600-bp partial hsp60 gene was amplified by PCR and sequenced from 29 strains representing 15 Vibrio species within the family Vibrionaceae. Sequence comparison of the amplified partial hsp60 gene revealed 71-82% sequence identity among different Vibrio species and 96-100% sequence identity among epidemiologically distinct strains with the same species designation. This degree of discrimination allows unambiguous differentiation of all Vibrio species included in the current study from each other, as well as from Aeromonas hydrophila and Plesiomonas shigelloides, which are often misidentified as Vibrio species by conventional biochemical methods. Based on the hsp60 gene sequences, two previously unidentified shrimp isolates were found to be more closely related to Vibrio alginolyticus (93-94% sequence identity) than to Vibrio parahaemolyticus (89% sequence identity), whereas 16S rRNA gene analysis was unable to differentiate among these closely related species (95-97% sequence identity). Our results indicate that the hsp60 gene may be a useful alternative target for phylogenetic analysis and species identification of marine Vibrios to complement more conventional identification systems.

大黄鱼源溶藻弧菌的鉴定及其菌蜕制备

【背景】菌蜕是诱导Phi X174噬菌体裂解基因E(Lysis E)在革兰氏阴性菌中表达后所获得无细胞内容物的细菌空壳。菌蜕生物安全性高,能以类似活菌方式诱导机体产生良好的系统和黏膜免疫应答。【目的】对分离自患溃疡病大黄鱼肝脏中的病原菌株16-3进行种属鉴定,利用温控调节表达系统控制Phi X174噬菌体裂解基因E在该菌株中的表达来制备菌蜕,为防控鱼类溶藻弧菌感染提供有效手段。【方法】采用形态特征观察、生理生化特性测定及16S r RNA基因序列分析等方法对菌株16-3进行鉴定;构建温控裂解质粒p BV220-Lysis E,并将其电转至溶藻弧菌菌株16-3,形成重组溶藻弧菌菌株16-3(p BV220-Lysis E);将不同起始浓度的重组溶藻弧菌培养物同时进行42°C升温诱导,比较其溶菌动力曲线和裂解效率的差异;在最佳条件下制备溶藻弧菌菌株16-3菌蜕,电镜观察其形态与结构,采用倾注平板法测定冻干菌蜕中的活菌数。【结果】综合菌株16-3在形态、生理生化及16S r RNA基因系统发育等方面的特性,确定其为溶藻弧菌;构建了温控裂解质粒p BV220-Lysis E和重组溶藻弧菌菌株16-3(p BV220-Lysis E);溶藻弧菌菌株16-3菌蜕制备的最佳条件是选择起始浓度OD600为0.3的菌液进行诱导,诱导3 h后即可收获菌蜕,其裂解效率为96.9%,但经冻干处理后的菌蜕无活菌残留;电镜观察发现菌株16-3菌蜕保持原细胞的基本形态,但细胞表面有明显的溶菌孔道,且由于细胞内容流失而使细胞表面发生皱缩。【结论】制备出溶藻弧菌菌株16-3菌蜕,为其作为疫苗或疫苗递送载体奠定了基础。     

三种消毒剂对大黄鱼致病性弧菌的体外杀灭作用研究

为了解不同消毒剂对大黄鱼中致病性弧菌的抑菌效果。采用纸片扩散法比较了聚维酮碘(PVP-I)、聚六亚甲基双胍(PHMB)和过氧化氢(H2O2)对溶藻弧菌和副溶血性弧菌的抑菌效果,再以肉汤稀释法测定了三种消毒剂的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)、最低杀菌浓度(MBC)及MBC/MIC比值,在此基础上,获得了抑菌效果相对较优的H2O2、PHMB对溶藻弧菌、副溶血性弧菌及其混菌的杀菌动力学曲线。结果表明,H2O2(3%)对两种弧菌具有最大的抑菌圈直径(19~21mm),PHMB(30mg/mL)次之(约为15mm),PVP-I(10%)的抑菌效果最弱(小于10mm)。3种消毒剂的MIC值由小到大依次为PHMB相似文献   

Occurrence of pathogenic vibrios in coastal areas of France

AIMS: This study was carried out to investigate the occurrence of potentially pathogenic species of Vibrio in French marine and estuarine environments. METHODS AND RESULTS: Samples of coastal waters and mussels collected between July and September 1999 were analysed by culture, using selective media including thiosulphate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose and modified cellobiose-polymixin B-colistin agar. Presumptive Vibrio colonies were isolated and identified using selected biochemical tests. Specific primers based on flanking sequences of the cytolysin, vvhA gene, pR72H DNA fragment and 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer region (ISR) were used in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to confirm the identification of Vibrio vulnificus, V. parahaemolyticus and V. cholerae, respectively. In this study, V. alginolyticus (99 of 189) was the predominant species, followed by V. parahaemolyticus (41 of 189), V. vulnificus (20 of 189) and non-O1/non-O139 V. cholerae (three of 189). All 20 V. vulnificus isolates showed PCR amplification of the vvhA gene, 16 of which had been isolated from estuarine water. The PCR amplification of the pR72H DNA fragment in 41 V. parahaemolyticus isolates generated two unique amplicons of 387 and 320 bp. The latter, present in 24.4% of these isolates, had not previously been found in V. parahaemolyticus strains examined to date. Amplification of the trh gene in two of the isolates suggested these to be virulent strains. Three strains identified as V. cholerae by amplification of the 16S-23S rRNA ISR were confirmed to be non-cholera (non-O1/non-O139) strains. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study demonstrated the presence of pathogenic Vibrio species in French coastal waters. Furthermore, the PCR approach proved useful for the rapid and reliable confirmation of species identification. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: These findings indicate the potential sanitary risk associated with the presence of pathogenic Vibrio spp. in cultivated mussels and in the aquatic environment. The PCR can be used to detect pathogenic vibrios directly in environmental samples.     

Phylogeny and molecular identification of vibrios on the basis of multilocus sequence analysis

We analyzed the usefulness of rpoA, recA, and pyrH gene sequences for the identification of vibrios. We sequenced fragments of these loci from a collection of 208 representative strains, including 192 well-documented Vibrionaceae strains and 16 presumptive Vibrio isolates associated with coral bleaching. In order to determine the intraspecies variation among the three loci, we included several representative strains per species. The phylogenetic trees constructed with the different genetic loci were roughly in agreement with former polyphasic taxonomic studies, including the 16S rRNA-based phylogeny of vibrios. The families Vibrionaceae, Photobacteriaceae, Enterovibrionaceae, and Salinivibrionaceae were all differentiated on the basis of each genetic locus. Each species clearly formed separated clusters with at least 98, 94, and 94% rpoA, recA, and pyrH gene sequence similarity, respectively. The genus Vibrio was heterogeneous and polyphyletic, with Vibrio fischeri, V. logei, and V. wodanis grouping closer to the Photobacterium genus. V. halioticoli-, V. harveyi-, V. splendidus-, and V. tubiashii-related species formed groups within the genus Vibrio. Overall, the three genetic loci were more discriminatory among species than were 16S rRNA sequences. In some cases, e.g., within the V. splendidus and V. tubiashii group, rpoA gene sequences were slightly less discriminatory than recA and pyrH sequences. In these cases, the combination of several loci will yield the most robust identification. We can conclude that strains of the same species will have at least 98, 94, and 94% rpoA, recA, and pyrH gene sequence similarity, respectively.     

Phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio alginolyticus isolates based on toxR gene sequence

The Vibrio genus contains a large number of closely related bacterial species differing, in some cases, less than 1% in 16S rRNA gene sequence. The present study evaluated the usefulness of toxR gene for phylogenetic and evolution analysis on Vibrio isolates of environmental or clinical origin belonging to the two closely related species V. parahaemolyticus and V. alginolyticus. The phylogenetic analysis based on toxR gene, contrary to 16S rRNA gene, allowed a clear differentiation of the isolates belonging to the two species and showed the presence of two separate, statistically supported clusters in V. alginolyticus (subgroup A and B). Such division, partially reflected in the biochemical features of the isolates, could not be explained by spatial and/or temporal distance in the isolation, leading to the hypothesis of two distinct, co-existing clusters in the V. alginolyticus isolates analysed. The evolutionary analysis on the toxR sequence showed that while the substitutions inferred from the alignment of V. parahaemolyticus are best explained by the negative/neutral selection model, in V. alginolyticus--and particularly in subgroup B--is acting a positive evolutionary pressure. The site detected as under diversifying selection (P164L) could be related to conformational changes of ToxR protein.     

Polynucleotide sequence relationships among Japanese and American strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus

Polynucleotide sequence relationships between two reference Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains isolated from Japanese and American gastroenteritis patients were investigated by use of (32)P-DNA/DNA reassociation in free solution. In addition, these strains were similarly compared with 22 other strains of estuarine and marine vibrios, including 11 strains previously identified as V. parahaemolyticus (2 Japanese, 1 of unknown location, and 8 American strains obtained from diverse geographical locations and sources in North America), 3 strains of V. alginolyticus, and 8 of Vibrio spp. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from the Japanese and American gastroenteritis isolates showed high relative levels of intraspecific duplex formation (92 to 93%) when reassociated, reciprocally, at 60 C. Heterologous DNA duplexes exhibited thermal elution midpoint [Tm(e)] values comparable to those obtained from homologous duplexes (88.0) when thermally eluted from hydroxyapatite, thus indicating high base-pair complementarity. Other V. parahaemolyticus strains showed DNA homologies of 85% or greater, with correspondingly high Tm(e) values (86.0 to 88.0) for the heteroduplexes formed. DNA of two of three V. alginolyticus strains (ATCC 17749 and 166-70) was 55 to 60% homologous to reference V. parahaemolyticus DNA preparations; Vibrio sp. strain 5144 (originally classified as V. parahaemolyticus biotype 2 and subsequently as V. alginolyticus strain 5144) showed only 24 to 26% DNA homology to the same reference DNA. These data provide evidence that Vibrio sp. strain 5144 is genetically distinct from the other V. alginolyticus strains used in this study. Three bioluminescent strains thought to be closely related to V. parahaemolyticus demonstrated only 24 to 31% DNA homology to the reference V. parahaemolyticus DNA. These data firmly establish the existence in some Atlantic and Gulf Coast estuaries of organisms genetically very similar to V. parahaemolyticus, the causative agent of "shirasu" food poisoning in Japan.
