Aims: To study the potential biocontrol activity of bioflocs technology. Methods and Results: Glycerol‐grown bioflocs were investigated for their antimicrobial and antipathogenic properties against the opportunistic pathogen Vibrio harveyi. The bioflocs did not produce growth‐inhibitory substances. However, bioflocs and biofloc supernatants decreased quorum sensing‐regulated bioluminescence of V. harveyi. This suggested that the bioflocs had biocontrol activity against this pathogen because quorum sensing regulates virulence of vibrios towards different hosts. Interestingly, the addition of live bioflocs significantly increased the survival of gnotobiotic brine shrimp (Artemia franciscana) larvae challenged to V. harveyi. Conclusions: Bioflocs grown on glycerol as carbon source inhibit quorum sensing‐regulated bioluminescence in V. harveyi and protect brine shrimp larvae from vibriosis. Significance and Impact of the Study: The results presented in this study indicate that in addition to water quality control and in situ feed production, bioflocs technology could help in controlling bacterial infections within the aquaculture pond. 相似文献

Identification of a collagen-binding protein from Necator americanus by using a cDNA-expression phage display library. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A phage display library was made starting from a cDNA library from the hematophagous human parasite Necator americanus. The cDNA library was transferred by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) cloning into phage display vectors (phagemids), using specially designed primers such that proteins would be expressed as fusions with the C-terminal part of the phage coat protein pVI. The vectors used are multicloning site variants of the original pDONG vectors described by Jespers et al. (1995). Electroporation of the ligation mixtures into electrocompetent Escherichia coli TGI cells yielded 3 x 10(8) pG6A, 1.9 x 10(8) pG6B, and 1 x 10(8) pG6C transfectants for N. americanus. The final libraries consisted of a mix of equal numbers of insert-containing phages from the A, B, and C libraries. Selection of phages for binding to human collagen was performed. Four rounds of panning on human collagens I and III resulted in a significant enrichment of collagen-binding phages from the N. americanus libraries. PCR analysis revealed various insert lengths; however, sequence determination indicated that all phages contained the same protein, albeit with different poly-A tail lengths. The encoded protein itself is a 135-amino acid protein (15 kDa), with no apparent homology to any other known protein. Next the protein was recloned into E. coli using the pET-15b-vector. Upon isopropyl-1-thio-beta-D-galactopyranoside induction, the recombinant protein, rNecH1, could be recovered by urea treatment from inclusion bodies. The rNecH1 protein binds to different collagens: human I > rat I > human III = calf skin I in a specific, dose-dependent, and saturable manner. 相似文献

Autoinducer 2 (AI-2) quorum sensing was shown before to regulate the virulence of Vibrio harveyi towards the brine shrimp Artemia franciscana. In this study, several different pathogenic V. harveyi, Vibrio campbellii, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolates were shown to produce AI-2. Furthermore, disruption of AI-2 quorum sensing by a natural and a synthetic brominated furanone protected gnotobiotic Artemia from the pathogenic isolates in in vivo challenge tests. 相似文献

Dendritic cells play a central role in the initiation of the immune response as they are the only antigen-presenting cells able to prime naive T cells. This makes the dendritic cells the vector of choice to use as a cell-based vaccine in immunotherapy. Although there are several strategies to deliver antigen to dendritic cells, the ones transfected with mRNA coding for tumor or viral antigens are able to induce potent antigen specific T-cell responses directed against multiple epitopes. In this review, we report several advances made in the field of anti-tumoral and anti-HIV immunotherapy using mRNA-transfected dendritic cells-based approaches. 相似文献
