免疫酶技术鉴定 El Tor 型霍乱弧菌稳定 L 型

细菌稳定 L 型的形态、培养特性以及生化反应常与原菌不同,其菌落在盐水中不能乳化,故不能通过玻片凝集测定其抗原。对于这种一时不能回复为原菌的 L 型很难进行鉴定。本文采用免疫酶技术对由鳝鱼和鲫鱼胆汁诱导的 El Tor 型霍乱弧菌稳定 L 型进行了鉴定。实验证明 L 型的细胞壁可有不同程度的缺失,稳定 L 型仍可能有少量“O”抗原存在。PAP 法比较敏感,即使少量抗原亦可以检出。

El Tor型霍乱弧菌及其细胞壁缺陷型分子遗传学背景的研究

El Tor 型霍乱弧菌(以下简称 El Tor 弧菌)可以在人工培养条件下长期存活。当微环境改变时可形成细胞壁有不同程度缺陷的菌株如抗噬菌体突变株或 L 型菌株。我们以 DNA 酶切图谱和 El Tor 弧菌溶血素、神经氨酸酶基因探针杂交图谱为参数对 El Tor 弧菌的野生型及其细胞壁缺陷型变异株在遗传背景上进行了比较分析研究。结果提示细胞壁缺陷型菌株与其野生型在DNA 水平上高度同源。此外,文中还介绍了一种从 L 型菌株中制备 DNA 的方法。     

分枝杆菌L型诱导

作者在TSA-L培养基上,应用D-环丝氨酸50μg/ml和异烟肼1μg/ml成功地诱导出耻垢杆菌和结核杆菌L型。其L型与原菌相比,表现有形态学的改变和抗酸染色性的变化,并且发现可能是由于两种药物的作用机制不同,其诱导结果也不尽相同。同时实验证明,在分枝杆菌L型的培养和诱导过程中,平皿胶布封口培养可以代替目前常用的烛缸培养,能减少污染又便于观察。

El Tor型CTXΦ对O1群不同霍乱弧菌的转染性研究

研究丝状噬菌体CTXΦ对O1群不同霍乱弧菌的水平转移效率及菌株的噬菌体免疫能力。利用带有氯霉素抗性基因遗传标记的CTXETΦ感染颗粒对O1群的4株不同霍乱弧菌进行体外和体内转染实验,根据氯霉素抗性筛选转染子,通过Southern Blot等方法进行验证并判断CTXΦ基因组的存在形式,计算比较不同菌株的转染率,分析转染及噬菌体免疫机制。带有遗传标记的CTXETΦ对古典型霍乱弧菌1119的体内转染率高于体外;体内转染实验中,古典菌株1119的转染率远高于其它3株El Tor型霍乱弧菌;在El Tor型霍乱弧菌中,不含rstR基因的IEM101的转染率高于另外两株带有rstR基因的霍乱弧菌2~3个数量级。古典型霍乱弧菌比El Tor型菌株对CTXETΦ噬菌体颗粒更易感,TCP菌毛的表达和rstR基因介导的噬菌体免疫影响CTXΦ在霍乱弧菌中的水平转移。

用粘粒载体克隆霍乱弧菌染色体基因方法的建立

本文采用我国 El Tor 型霍乱弧菌805菌株(稻叶血清型,噬菌体-生物型 ld)为实验菌株,对粘粒载体(Cosmid)基因克隆的方法,进行了探索.首先从感染噬菌体λ突变体的溶原菌(HB 2688,HB2690)制备包装抽提物。制备方案有二:一是直接制备 HB2688,HB2690混合包装抽提物;另一是用超声波处理制备 HB2690抽提物;用冻融法制备 HB2688抽提物.包装时再将两者混合.本文认为以 pHC79为载体进行包装时,两方案效果一样,第一方案操作较简便些.在核酸操作中,从805菌株提取染色体 DNA,要求 DNA 的长度约为100kb;进行染色体 DNA部分消解时,应使大部分 DNA 片段在30～40kb 之间;连接时,碱性磷酸酶处理过的载体量应为30～40kb DNA 的10倍.本文以 pHC79为载体,建立805菌株染色体 DNA 无性繁殖系,得到500多个克隆子。     

Development and validation of a mismatch amplification mutation PCR assay to monitor the dissemination of an emerging variant of Vibrio cholerae O1 biotype El Tor

A mismatch amplification mutation PCR assay was developed and validated for rapid detection of the biotype specific cholera toxin B subunit of V. cholerae O1. This assay will enable easy monitoring of the spread of a new emerging variant of the El Tor biotype of V. cholerae O1.     

Cryptic Appearance of a New Clone of Vibrio cholerae Serogroup O1 Biotype El Tor in Calcutta,India

In this study, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was applied to determine if the Vibrio cholerae O1 strains which reappeared after being temporarily displaced in Calcutta by the O139 serogroup were different from those isolated before the advent of the O139 serogroup. NotI digestion generated a total of 11 different patterns among the 24 strains of V. cholerae randomly selected to represent different time frames. Among the V. cholerae O1 strains isolated after July 1993, 4 PFGE banding patterns designated as H through K were observed with pattern H dominating. Pattern H was distinctly different from all other patterns encountered in this study including patterns A, B and C of V. cholerae O1 El Tor, which dominated before November 1992, and pattern F, which was the dominant V. cholerae O139 pattern. Further, pattern H was also different from the NotI banding patterns of the representative strains of the 4 toxigenic clonal groups of V. cholerae O1 El Tor currently prevailing in different parts of the world. NotI fragments of the new clone of V. cholerae O1 did not hybridize with an O139 specific DNA probe, indicating that there was no O139 genetic material in the new clone of V. cholerae O1. Hybridization data with an O1-specific DNA probe again differentiated between the clones of V. cholerae O1 existing before the genesis of the O139 serogroup and the O1 strains currently prevalent.     

A method for studies of an El Tor-associated antigen of Vibrio cholerae O1

A method for studying the biotype El Tor associated mannose-sensitive haemagglutinin (MSHA) of V. cholerae O1 has been developed. By using crude MSHA adsorbed to chicken erythrocytes as solid phase antigen in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), antisera against V. cholerae of the El Tor biotype reacted in high titre with the MSHA-coated cells, whereas antisera against vibrios of the classical biotype did not bind significantly, i.e. in higher titre than pre-immune sera. The binding of anti-MSHA serum, or a monoclonal antibody against MSHA, to the MSHA-coated erythrocytes could be efficiently inhibited by crude MSHA as well as by El Tor vibrios whereas neither V. cholerae lipopolysaccharide nor different strains of classical vibrios had any inhibitory effect. These results support the existence of an El Tor-associated immunogen. They also suggest a possibility of determining antibodies against different haemagglutinins in ELISA without having access to purified antigens.     

Characterization of non-membrane-damaging cytotoxin of non-toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 and its relevance to disease

The non-membrane-damaging cytotoxin which causes dramatic cell rounding of cultured HeLa cells was purified to homogeneity from a clinical strain (WO5) of non-toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 Inaba belonging to the El Tor biotype. The purified protein has a denatured molecular weight of 35 kDa and a native molecular weight of approximately 37 kDa indicating the monomeric nature of the protein. The 15 N-terminal amino acid sequence of non-membrane-damaging cytotoxin showed complete homology to the hemagglutinin protease previously purified and characterized from V. cholerae O1. Purified non-membrane-damaging cytotoxin from V. cholerae O1 was immunologically and biochemically identical to that previously purified from V. cholerae O26. Non-membrane-damaging cytotoxin was found to be enterotoxic in rabbit ileal loop assay inducing accumulation of non-hemorrhagic fluid at 100 μg and elicited a concentration dependent increase in short circuit current and tissue conductance of rabbit ileal mucosa mounted on Ussing chambers. A significant serum immunoglobulin G response against non-membrane-damaging cytotoxin was elicited by patients infected with V. cholerae O139 but not with V. cholerae O1. These properties make non-membrane-damaging cytotoxin a potential virulence factor of V. cholerae which should be taken into consideration while making live, attenuated recombinant vaccine strains against cholera.
