The influence of hydrogen peroxide on the dynamics of transition into uncultivable state (UCS) and on the reversion of V. cholerae and their subcultures, resistant to hydrogen peroxide, was studied. The transition of the initial cultures in river and distilled water into UCS took place earlier than that in resistant to hydrogen peroxide variants. The capacity for reversion to hydrogen peroxide resistant subcultures preserved, on the average, 2 - 3 times longer. An increase in the level of hydrogen peroxide in uncultivable populations was found to be 2.7 - 4.4 times. Subcultures, resistant to hydrogen peroxide, in the vegetative form had lower characteristics of peroxide concentrations than in uncultivable form (UCF), but somewhat higher than in initial variants. In revertants the concentration of hydrogen peroxide was lower in UCF, but somewhat higher than in vegetative cultures. The dynamics of the formation of UCF by cholera vibrios, with different degree of stability to the action of hydrogen peroxide, the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in uncultivable populations, the deceleration of transition into uncultivable forms, an accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and an increase in the time of the reversion of clones, resistant to hydrogen peroxide, made it possible to suggest that the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide was possible to make an essential contribution to the formation of UCF of cholera vibrios in an experiment. 相似文献

In experiments with the cultivation of V. cholerae eltor under the conditions of high salt concentration, as well as low temperature and deficiency in nutrient substances, uncultivable forms (UF) of toxigenic and nontoxigenic vibrios were obtained. The absence of growth of seeded vibrios after the filtration of samples (with a filter of 0.22 micron), the preservation of specific antigenic determinants and the initial set of genes, changes in the morphology of cells (small size, coccoid form with the flagella retained) confirm the transition of V. cholerae eltor under study into the uncultivable state which, under unfavorable conditions, more rapidly develops in toxigenic vibrios than in nontoxigenic ones. The analysis of the INT-reductase activity of UF disintegrates revealed that they had endogenic respiration whose activity increased (4.5- to 6.5-fold) in the presence of the exogenic intermediates of the Krebs cycle. The uncultivable forms of the vibrios retain genes responsible for pathogenicity, as well as their antigenic determinants. 相似文献

In a series of prolonged experiments with the use of the bacteriological method and PCR analysis the amount and state of B. cepacia population, associated and not associated with infusoria Tetrahymena pyriformis, were dynamically evaluated under different conditions: in water, brain heart broth, soil extract and at different temperature (4 degrees C and 25 degrees C). In soil extract at 25 degrees C B. cepacia existed in the vegetative state for the period of up to 3 months, while at 4 degrees C, in the absence of protozoa, the transition of these microorganisms into the uncultivable forms occurred in 9 days, and they could be detected only with the use of PCR. Protozoa maintained the existence of the vegetative bacteria for as long as 2 months, and in 3-4 months uncultivable forms of B. cepacia cells were registered. In water at low temperature B. cepacia disappeared in 2 months, evidently, eaten up by infusoria. The population variability of B. cepacia under different conditions of their existence was established: S-R dissociation, a decrease in biochemical activity, growth deceleration. A high level of cytopathogenicity in B. cepacia pigment-forming clones was noted. In the process of transition into the uncultivable state pigment formation in B. cepacia population decreased up. The ecological plasticity and multi-pathogenicity of B. cepacia as phytopathogens and the causative agents of human diseases are discussed. 相似文献

Influence of tumor necrosis factor on the growth of vegetative and nonculturable forms of Salmonella
Romanova IuM Alekseeva NV Stepanova TV Razumikhin MV Shilov IA Tomova AS Gintsburg AL 《Zhurnal mikrobiologii, epidemiologii, i immunobiologii》2002,(4):20-25
The growth rate of the vegetative forms and the recultivation rate of the uncultivable forms of Salmonella isogenous strains, one of these strains carrying mutation in gene pqi, were studied. The multiplication rate of the vegetative and uncultivable forms of Salmonella control strain in the spleen of infected animals at the initial stages of the infectious process was shown (in vivo) to be considerably accelerated after the preliminary incubation of the culture with cytokine (tumor necrosis factor). The multiplication rate, in vivo and in vitro, of Salmonella vegetative and uncultivable forms with mutation in gene pqi did not change after the incubation of the cells with cytokine, which is indicative of an important role played by the product of this gene in the process of the interaction of bacteria with cytokines. The full nucleotide sequence Salmonella gene pqi was determined. 相似文献

The dynamics of the transition of V. cholerae into the uncultivable state in distilled, river and tap water, containing organic and inorganic components added, was studied. As additives, potassium nitrate, potassium phosphate, magnesium sulfate, ammonium chloride, lysine, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinic acid, catalase were used. The study of the influence of biotic factors on transition into the uncultivable state was carried out in the presence of one-celled green algae Scenedesmus quadricauda or infusoria Paramecium caudatum. The linear dependence of speed of transition into the uncultivable form on the concentration of cells was noted. The composition of the microcosmic medium was also found to have some influence on the speed of transition into the uncultivable form and on the reversibility of this process. The presence of organic substances, such as peptone solution or destroyed cells of phyto- and zooplankton, in the microcosmic medium prolonged the time of transition into the uncultivable form and produced a positive effect on the capacity of the population to reversion. In respect of live biotic components, no such dependence was found. Inorganic additives prolonged the time of transition into the uncultivable state, but did not promote reversion. 相似文献

A critical role for a Rho-associated kinase, p160ROCK, in determining axon outgrowth in mammalian CNS neurons 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19

We tested the contribution of the small GTPase Rho and its downstream target p160ROCK during the early stages of axon formation in cultured cerebellar granule neurons. p160ROCK inhibition, presumably by reducing the stability of the cortical actin network, triggered immediate outgrowth of membrane ruffles and filopodia, followed by the generation of initial growth cone-ike membrane domains from which axonal processes arose. Furthermore, a potentiation in both the size and the motility of growth cones was evident, though the overall axon elongation rate remained stable. Conversely, overexpression of dominant active forms of Rho or ROCK was suggested to prevent initiation of axon outgrowth. Taken together, our data indicate a novel role for the Rho/ROCK pathway as a gate critical for the initiation of axon outgrowth and the control of growth cone dynamics. 相似文献

Two basic tendencies--formation of latent (uncultivable) form (LF) and hemin storage variability--has been revealed during study of clonal structure dynamics of Y. pestis populations in artificial soil ecosystems in long-term incubation conditions. Y. pestis populations disappeared within 3 - 6 months at 18 - 22 degrees C, whereas at 4 - 8 degrees C a subsequent replacement of vegetative cells on LF, which are capable to prolonged survival (up to 22 months) in soil with ability to reversion in the presence of abundance of nutrients, has been observed. Bacteria of virulent strain retained all determinants of pathogenicity when reverted to LF, whereas bacteria of avirulent strain (defective on plasmid of Ca-dependence), on the contrary, undergo further degradation that resulted in loss of a pgm locus and gradual disappearance of population. LF revertants of highly virulent strain restored properties of initial population and were highly virulent. 相似文献

Light and electron-microscopical 3H-thymidine autoradiography was used to study the dynamics of cell populations in the zones of enchondral osteogenesis in a tubular bone. In the early postnatal ontogenesis little differentiated perivascular cells are characterized by the highest proliferative activity in this region; they are considered as a population containing initial forms of the histogenetic sequence (differon) of the stromal fibroblast-like cells including osteoblasts. Differentiation of osteogenic cells from the initial forms to the mature osteoblasts proceeds through a number of successive divisions (1-3 divisions) and is accompanied by a decrease in the proliferative activity due to the increase in the generation time and decrease in the cell proliferative pool. The major part of osteoblasts is outside the mitotic cycle. At the later stages of ontogenesis the intensity of growth processes in the bone is provided for by changes in the proliferative pool of the committed precursor cells (preosteoblasts) which make a part of endosteum, vascular channels and bone marrow stroma. 相似文献

In the denticulate ventral muscle of Wistar rats at the age of 1 day--2 months activity of NAD-N-dehydrogenase, succynic dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase has been determined in transversal cryostat sections. Quantitative estimation of the enzymes activity has been carried on by the plag-method. With age, general tendency to increasing activity of the enzymes mentioned is noted, but the dynamics of the increase is peculiar for every enzyme. Analysing the histograms on muscular fibre distribution according to their optical density, it is possible to estimate the dynamics. Simultaneously, the width of variational series, central statistical moments, indices of asymmetry and excess are also estimated. The whole course of the muscular fibre development, in accordance to the range and moments of distribution, can be devided into four main stages: stable, initial stage, slow increase of events, rapid increase of events and stabilization of the process. The stages mentioned pass gradually one into another making it possible to mark transitional stages (5--11, 15--19, 34--60 days). Using standard indices, it is possible to characterize more strictly the processes occurring in the course of muscular fibre differentiation. Lack of parallelism in the dynamics of asimilarity and excess can be treated as variety in differentiation of muscular fibres with middle and large optic density, and parallelism in dynamics--as their simultaneous differentiation. By comparing the curves it can be concluded that up to the 12--14th days, variety in differentiation of muscular fibres occurs, while after the 14th day their differentiation is more regular and simultaneous. The method of cytophotometry with subsequent mathematical processing of the results helps to determine the stages of muscular fibres differentiation. 相似文献

The character and outcome of interactions between Y. pestis (vaccine strain and soil infusoria Tetrahymena pyriformis (axenic culture) were under experimental study. The parallel use of the bacteriological method and PCR test systems made it possible to follow the dynamics of Y. pestis cells (strain EV) with different plasmid profiles in their interaction with infusoria, as well as their passage into the protozoa cysts. The study revealed the complete utilization of Y. pestis cells lacking virulence factors by infusoria. The presence of plasmids of virulence influenced only the duration of complete bacterial phagocytosis. A drop in the temperature of cultivation to 2 degrees C induced the mass and rapid encystment of infusoria. In the PCR analysis specific DNA fragments of Y. pestis cells, preserved in the latent (uncultivable) state, were detected in the cysts of protozoa within the period of up to 14 months, while the results of bacteriological studies were negative. The data thus obtained are discussed with regard to the possible mechanisms of the existence and prolonged reservation of Y. pestis in the soils of natural foci with participation of protozoa. 相似文献

Accurate neural crest cell (NCC) migration requires tight control of cell adhesions, cytoskeletal dynamics and cell motility. Cadherins and RhoGTPases are critical molecular players that regulate adhesions and motility during initial delamination of NCCs from the neuroepithelium. Recent studies have revealed multiple functions for these molecules and suggest that a precise balance of their activity is crucial. RhoGTPase appears to regulate both cell adhesions and protrusive forces during NCC delamination. Increasing evidence shows that cadherins are multi-functional proteins with novel, adhesion-independent signaling functions that control NCC motility during both delamination and migration. These functions are often regulated by specific proteolytic cleavage of cadherins. After NCC delamination, planar cell polarity signaling acts via RhoGTPases to control NCC protrusions and migration direction. 相似文献

The importance of the combined influence of temperature, mineralization and illumination of the medium on the time of the transition of V. cholerae into the uncultivable state has been shown. The reversion of 5- to 60-day variants of uncultivable forms after the elevation of temperature to 20-22 degrees C has been obtained. 相似文献

The hormonal status of the Taraxacum officinale Web. ovary was quantitatively assayed for the first time during early stages of embryogenesis. Apparent concentrations of endogenous cytokinins were measured using two systems of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The ELISA systems differed from one another by the specificity for the main endogenous forms of zeatin. The specificity of two heterological ELISA systems based on zeatin- and kinetin-specific antisera was studied. A new immunochemical approach to the problem of differential quantitative determination of natural zeatin forms is suggested. This approach does not require preliminary separation of experimental samples into individual fractions. True concentrations of zeatin and zeatin riboside in the T. officinale ovary were calculated based on the average values of apparent concentrations of endogenous cytokinins. When the embryo sac maturation had been completed, there was a threefold increase in the zeatin riboside concentration within the following 12 h. By the time of the first division of an unfertilized ovicell (i.e., within the next 12 h), there had been a twofold decrease in the zeatin riboside concentration. Therefore, at early stages of division of the unfertilized ovicell the zeatin riboside concentration virtually returned to the initial level. In contrast to zeatin riboside, there was a steady trend toward an increase in the zeatin concentration in the T. officinale ovary. Within the first 12 h and the next 12 h after completion of the embryo sac maturation, the zeatin concentration was increased 1.5-fold and 2-fold, respectively. The results of this work provide a pioneering insight into the dynamics of various natural forms of zeatin during the reproductive process. The immunochemical approach to quantitative monitoring of various natural forms of zeatin and their dynamics during embryogenesis suggested in this work can be extended to similar biological, medical, and agricultural problems of differential determination of low-molecular-weight agents of similar structure but different biological activity. 相似文献

A particular fungal population is present in the main stages of the manufacturing process of cork discs. Its diversity was studied using both dependent (isolation) and independent culture methods (denaturing gel gradient electrophoresis and cloning of the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region). The mycobiota in the samples taken in the stages before and after the first boiling seems to be distinct from the population in the subsequent manufacturing stages. Most isolated fungi belong to the genera Penicillium, Eurotium and Cladosporium. The presence of uncultivable fungi, Ascomycota and endophytes in raw cork was confirmed by sequencing. The samples taken after the first boiling contained uncultivable fungi, but in a few samples some isolated fungi were also detected. The main taxa present in the following stages were Chrysonilia sitophila, Penicillium glabrum and Penicillium spp. All applied techniques had complementary outcomes. The main factors driving the shift in cork fungal colonization seem to be the high levels of humidity and temperature to which the slabs are subjected during the boiling process. 相似文献

This paper shows that in the solid-state cultivation of Lactobacillus plantarum 8R-A3 on wheat bran, a biofilm was formed on the surface of the carrier within 48 h. Prolongation of fermentation caused a drop in the number of CFU from 96% of the initial total number of cells to 8.8% by 72 h. When the temperature was raised from 37 to 45°C, which led to drying of the fermentation mass, the CFU index decreased to <104. According to fluorescence microscopy data, up to 40% of bacteria with signs of life survived in the dry specimens. After keeping the mice on a diet with the introduction of 0.05% of fermented bran dried for 72 hours, a strain genetically identical to the L. plantarum 8R-A3 was extracted from the colon. In animals with amikacin-inhibited intestinal lactobacilli, their normal level recovered. It is suggested that L. plantarum 8R-A3 generates uncultivable forms, which are reanimated by passage through the animal organism and exhibit probiotic activity. The biofilm formed in the solid-state cultivation contributes to the survival of lactobacilli cells in drying of the fermentation mass. 相似文献

The dynamics of vegetative and dormant (noncultivable) of S. typhimurium cells of two isogenic strains in association with microalgae Scenedesmus quadricauda and under the action of the exometabolites of the algae at different stages of their growth was studied using in parallel bacteriological method and PCR. The study revealed that at the stage of active growth green algae and their metabolic products maintain the survival of salmonellae (strain TR = 1) vegetative forms in water at an optimum temperature. Low temperatures induced their gradual (3 weeks) transition to the dormant state. The exometabolites of old dying algae induced the rapid (several hours) and complete transition of the bacterial population (TR = 1) to noncultivable state. In our experiments the insertional mutation in gene pqi (strain PhoA = 8), inducing the defect of transmembrane protein and disturbances in the transition of salmonellae to dormant state, led to stable existence (lasting 7 months, i.e. the whole term of observation) of vegetative cells. The natural inducers tried in our experiments did not lead to the formation of the dormant forms of salmonellae in this mutant strain. 相似文献

Primordial germ cells (PGCs) arise in the early embryo and migrate toward the future gonad through species‐specific pathways. They are assumed to change their migration properties dependent on their own genetic program and/or environmental cues, though information concerning the developmental change in PGC motility is limited. First, we re‐examined the distribution of PGCs in the endodermal region of Xenopus embryos at various stages by using an antibody against Xenopus Daz‐like protein, and found four stages of migration, namely clustering, dispersing, directionally migrating and re‐aggregating. Next, we isolated living PGCs at each stage and directly examined their morphology and locomotive activity in cell cultures. PGCs at the clustering stage were round in shape with small blebs and showed little motility. PGCs in both the dispersing and the directionally migrating stages alternated between the locomotive phase with an elongated morphology and the pausing phase with a rugged morphology. The locomotive activity of the elongated PGCs was accompanied by the persistent formation of a large bleb at the leading front. The duration of the locomotive phase was shortened gradually with the transition from the dispersing stage to the directionally migrating stage. At the re‐aggregating stage, PGCs became round in shape and showed no motility. Thus, we directly showed that the locomotive activity of PGCs changes dynamically depending upon the migrating stage. We also showed that the locomotion and blebbing of the PGCs required F‐actin, myosin II activity and RhoA/Rho‐associated protein kinase (ROCK) signaling. 相似文献

A protein, present in bovine seminal plasma, initiates forward motility in immature, immotile caput spermatozoa that have been incubated with a cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor. An improved motility assay was developed to study this process and the protein involved. This forward motility protein exhibits multiple forms when fractionated on the basis of charge or molecular weight. Molecular sieving in urea or sodium dodecyl sulfate and dithiothreitol results in a single peak of activity which will re-form the larger aggregates in the absence of these agents. The molecular weight of this monomeric motility protein, as estimated from molecular sieving under these dissociating conditions, is 37,500. The forward motility protein can be partially purified by heat treatment, gell chromatography in urea, and affinity chromatography on concanavalin A/agarose. Enzymatic treatments further suggest a glycoprotein nature, i.e. treatment with beta-galactosidase, neuraminidase, alpha-mannosidase, or galactose oxidase reduces its activity by 50%; treatment with trypsin completely abolishes forward motility protein activity. On the basis of concurrent studies on the activity, properties, and distribution of forward motility protein in bovine body fluids, it is suggested that this protein is involved in the development of the capacity for motility as sperm traverse the epididymis. 相似文献

From the water column of Lake Baikal, several strains of prosthecate bacteria belonging to the genera Caulobacter and Brevundimonas were isolated. In this article, the methods applied for their isolation and cell number determination are described; the occurrence frequency and spatial distribution of these microorganisms in the lake are demonstrated. Characterization of the species composition of cultivable and uncultivable prosthecate bacteria was carried out using the methods of traditional and molecular microbiology, respectively. A comparative phylogenetic analysis of the DNA sequences of uncultivable bacteria, which showed homology to the members of the alpha subclass of proteobacteria, was carried out. It was demonstrated that the lake water column is inhabited by uncultivable alpha-proteobacteria of uncertain phylogenetic affinity, in addition to representatives of the species Caulobacter vibrioides and C. leidyi, which were detected by traditional microbiological methods. 相似文献

Sleeping sickness is characterized by waves of the extracellular parasite Trypanosoma brucei in host blood, with infections continuing for months or years until inevitable host death. These waves reflect the dynamic conflict between the outgrowth of a succession of parasite antigenic variants and their control by the host immune system. Although a contributor to these dynamics is the density-dependent differentiation from proliferative "slender forms" to transmissible "stumpy forms," an absence of markers discriminating stumpy forms has prevented accurate parameterization of this component. Here, we exploit the stumpy-specific PAD1 marker, which functionally defines transmission competence, to quantitatively monitor stumpy formation during chronic infections. This allows reconstruction of the temporal events early in infection. Mathematical modeling of these data describes the parameters controlling trypanosome within-host dynamics and provides strong support for a quorum-sensing-like mechanism. Our data reveal the dominance of transmission stages throughout infection, a consequence being austere use of the parasite's antigen repertoire. 相似文献
