Tilapia aurea showed a specific immune response to Salmonella typhimurium. S. typhimurium was introduced into the gut of T. aurea by force-feeding. S. typhimurium was isolated from the fish viscera after 15 days, but at 30 days viable cells were not detected. T. aurea had an antibody titer to S. typhimurium after 30 days which was fivefold greater than the natural background antibody titer. An elevated antibody titer was not indicative of active bacterial infection. 相似文献

Salmonella typhimurium declined rapidly when inoculated into Tilapia aurea culture pools fertilized with fresh swine waste. Within the water column, a 95% decline of viable cells occurred during the first 6 h. Isolation of viable salmonellae was possible at 16 days post-inoculation, but not at 32 days. Similarly, salmonellae could be detected in the viscera and epithelium of T. aurea at 16 days, although not at 32 days. Salmonellae were not isolated from the fish flesh, nor was there evidence of septicemic infection. 相似文献

Antibodies directed against lipopolysaccharide (LPS) O-antigen are often critical in the immune response to Gram-negative pathogens. Mice were orally immunized with isogenic strains of Salmonella typhimurium that differ only in a minor modification of O-antigen, namely acetylation, mediated by the oafA locus. To specifically examine the effect of acetylation on the antibody response to O-antigen, antibody titers were determined against both acetylated and unacetylated LPS by ELISA. In mice immunized with an oafA+ strain, the median titer against acetylated LPS was 32-fold higher than the titer against unacetylated LPS. Mice immunized with the oafA- strain had an 8-fold higher titer against unacetylated LPS. Thus, acetylation of O-antigen alters recognition by the vast majority of individual antibodies. This differential antibody recognition of O-antigen had a statistically significant correlation with protection against subsequent challenge with virulent S. typhimurium. 相似文献

Immunomodulatory role of thyroid hormones: effect on humoral immune response to Salmonella typhi O antigen 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Effect of long term administration of thyroid hormones and the removal of thyroid on humoral antibody response to S. typhi O antigen was studied in male albino rats of HM strain. Humoral antibody response to S. typhi O antigen was enhanced in animals pretreated with T3 or T4 at a dose of 10 micrograms daily for 15 days. Administration of thyroid hormones simultaneously along with antigen, resulted in suppression of antibody response. In thyroidectomized animals, the antibody titer to S. typhi O antigen was decreased; this decrease in antibody titer was restored to normal level following hormone supplementation. Thyroidectomy significantly depressed TLC as well. Total leucocyte count and absolute lymphocyte count were increased following hormone treatment. Present findings, thus show the lymphoproliferative response of thyroid hormones and their effect on antibody response suggesting the immunomodulatory role of thyroid hormones. 相似文献

Genetic analysis of host-pathogen interactions has been hampered by the lack of genetically tractable models of such interactions. We showed previously that the human opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa kills Caenorhabditis elegans, that P. aeruginosa and C. elegans genes can be identified that affect this killing, and that most of these P. aeruginosa genes are also important for mammalian pathogenesis. Here, we show that Salmonella typhimurium as well as other Salmonella enterica serovars including S. enteritidis and S. dublin can also kill C. elegans. When C. elegans is placed on a lawn of S. typhimurium, the bacteria accumulate in the lumen of the worm intestine and the nematodes die over the course of several days. This killing requires contact with live bacterial cells. The worms die with similar kinetics when placed on a lawn of S. typhimurium for a relatively short time (3-5 hours) before transfer to a lawn of E. coli. After the transfer to E. coli, a high titer of S. typhimurium persists in the C. elegans intestinal lumen for the rest of the worms' life. Furthermore, feeding for 5 hours on a 1:1000 mixture of S. typhimurium and E. coli followed by transfer to 100% E. coli, also led to death after several days. This killing correlated with an increase in the titer of S. typhimurium in the C. elegans lumen, which reached 10,000 bacteria per worm. These data indicate that, in contrast to P. aeruginosa, a small inoculum of S. typhimurium can proliferate in the C. elegans intestine and establish a persistent infection. S. typhimurium mutated in the PhoP/PhoQ signal transduction system caused significantly less killing of C. elegans. 相似文献

Abstract Live-cell vaccines of Salmonella typhimurium , either a sub-lethal dose of a wild-type (strain LT2) or a high dose of its two-heptose Rd1 mutant (strain SL1004), induced acquired resistance to murine typhoid, which remained 180 days after immunozation. Growth of S. typhimurium as a bacillary form ceased between days 30 and 60 of immunization, but L forms of this bacterium colonized the liver (the mean number of L forms in the liver: 600 L-forming units) even at 180 days post-immunization. In contrast, a high inoculum of either a Ra mutant (strain TV148) of strain LT2 or S. schottmülleri 8006 sharing the same O antigenic components with those of S. typhimurium induced only a short-lived protection in proportion to the number of L forms in the liver, and the protective immunity was lost before day 180. However, there was no significant difference in the salmonella-specific T-cell responses among groups of immunized mice on day 180 of immunization. A lethal infection with strain LT2 in mice which had been immunized 75 days previously with living cells of strain SL1004 resulted in a rapid clearance of the challenge inoculum, together with a rapid elevation of anti- S. typhimurium antibody responses. Thus, the present data suggest that the long-lived immunity conferred upon live S. typhimurium vaccines is attributable to the colonization of this bacterium in the liver as L forms and the ability to colonize the liver as L forms is independent of the brain length of salmonella O-antigens. 相似文献

Detection of porin antigen in serum for early diagnosis of mouse infections with Salmonella typhimurium 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Abstract The monoclonal antibodies to porin, an outer membrane protein isolated from Salmonella typhimurium and sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has made possible the detection of porin from sera of S. typhimurium -infected mice. The specificity of the monoclonal antibodies was ascertained based on their cross-reactivity with porins isolated from S. typhi, Shigella flexneri and Escherichia coli and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of S. typhimurium and E. coli . Serum samples were found to be positive for porin as early as 3 days after intravenous and 5 days after oral infection. In addition, a positive correlation was observed between the bacterial load and the concentration of porin detected in the sera. On the other hand, analysis of sera for anti-porin antibody showed diametrically opposite time kinetics with antigenaemia. These results indicate that porin accumulates in the serum of infected mice much earlier than the appearance of antibodies to porin. Thus detection of porin holds promise for early diagnosis of typhoid. 相似文献

Antibiotic-resistant strains of Salmonella typhimurium and Klebsiella pneumoniae died readily after their addition to raw sewage, but they grew in sterilized sewage. The decline was not a result of abiotic stresses, and because the bacteria were able to survive in large numbers for at least 15 days in solutions containing no organic nutrients, it was not a result of competition. Toxin production, bacteriophages, and Bdellovibrio sp. did not cause the disappearance of the two bacterial species. A decline was also evident if the sewage was first passed through a 3-micron (pore size) filter or treated with cycloheximide or cycloheximide plus nystatin, but protozoa developed under these conditions. Little or no decline occurred if the sewage was filtered and treated with the eucaryotic inhibitors before the addition of S. typhimurium or K. pneumoniae, and protozoa were not detected. S. typhimurium increased in abundance if cycloheximide, streptomycin, and erythromycin or large amounts of glucose were added to sewage. Tetrahymena thermophilus did not significantly reduce the population of S. typhimurium in buffer when the density of the bacterium was about 10(4)/ml. However, when more than 10(8) Enterobacter agglomerans cells per ml were added to the buffer, T. thermophilus reduced the abundance of E. agglomerans and S. typhimurium to 10(6) and 10/ml, respectively. The density of S. typhimurium was further decreased by a second increment of E. agglomerans cells. The disappearance of S. typhimurium and K. pneumoniae from sewage thus is the result of predation by protozoa.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

In this work the results of obtaining HBcAg-producing attenuated Salmonella strains, serovars S. enteritidis and S. typhimurium, and their comparative study is presented. As revealed in this study, attenuated S. enteritidis strain E-23 and S. typhimurium strain T-10, producing HBcAg, induce cell-mediated and humoral immune response to HBcAg after injected into anovals. After injection S. typhimurium strain T-10 induces a much higher titer of specific antibodies than S. enteritidis strain E-23. The level of specific antibodies induced by recombinant HBcAg seems to correlate with the capacity of salmonellae for survival inside macroorganisms. 相似文献

Protective immunities induced by porins from mutant strains of Salmonella typhimurium 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The protective immunity against Salmonella typhimurium-infection in mice immunized with porins from mutant strains of S. typhimurium was studied. A high level of protection against S. typhimurium infection was achieved in mice immunized with native porins from S. typhimurium LT2 (wild-type strain) but not from S. typhimurium SH6017, SH6260, or SH5551 (mutant strains), which produce 34K, 35K, or 36K porin, respectively. Moreover, when mice were immunized with mixtures of 34K, 35K, and 36K porins (34K + 35K, 35K + 36K, 34K + 36K, or 34K + 35K + 36K porin) or LT2 porin heated at 100 C for 2 min in 2% SDS (heat-denatured LT2 porin), the degree of protective immunities in the mice was very much lower than that in the mice immunized with the native LT2 porin. However, antisera raised against these porins showed no significant differences of the antibody titer against LT2 porin or LT2 whole cells. On the other hand, mice immunized with the native LT2 porin--but not 34K, 35K, 36K, 34K + 35K + 36K, and the heat-denatured LT2 porins--exhibited significant levels of delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction and interleukin-2 production when they were elicited with whole cells of S. typhimurium LT2. These observations suggested that the high level of protection induced by the native LT2 porin immunization was dependent on the induction of cell-mediated immunity. 相似文献

A study was performed to determine if type C influenza infection could be established in dogs as a model for human cases. Mongrel dogs were infected with the Ann Arbor/1/50 strain of type C influenza virus and were examined for clinical symptoms, virus isolation and antibody response. After the first exposure to the virus, all infected animals developed nasal discharge and some of them also showed swelling of the eyelids, and suffusion of the eyes with tears and eye mucus, within 1 to 4 days. The animals showed an increase in hemagglutination-inhibiting (HI) serum antibody, and recovery of the agent from the nasal swabs was successful. The symptoms lasted for as long as 10 days in most infected dogs, which was comparable to our human cases reported previously (Katagiri, S., Ohizumi, A., and Homma, M. 1983. J. Infect. Dis. 48 : 51–56). After the second and third virus exposures at intervals of 50 days, all animals developed the same symptoms as those described above and the rise in antibody titer was evident. The virus could be recovered from four of the six dogs 2 to 5 days after the second exposure and from one dog as late as 10 days after the third exposure. Increases in antibody titer in the IgM fraction were observed after every infection. In control dogs which were mock-infected with UV-inactivated virus, no symptoms were evident and recovery of the virus was not successful although an increase in HI serum antibody titer was seen. These results show that mongrel dogs are sensitive to type C influenza virus and that repeated infections characteristic of human influenza C can be experimentally produced in dogs. 相似文献

Abstract The receptors involved in the recognition of Salmonella typhimurium and S. typhi by murine macrophages were identified, and their relevance to phagosome-lysosome fusion was also investigated. Phagocytosis of S. typhimurium by murine macrophages was dependent on the opsonization with normal fresh serum, although the opsonin had no triggering activity in phagosome-lysosome fusion. In contrast, the opsonization of S. typhi with normal fresh serum efficiently triggered both phagocytosis and following phagosome-lysosome fusion. Anti-murine CR1 antibody suppressed phagocytosis of S. typhimurium by 36%, whereas anti-CR3 antibody, mannan, and advanced glycosylation endproducts (AGE)-BSA all failed to prevent phagocytosis of S. typhimurium , suggesting that CR1 may only contribute to the recognition of S. typhimurium and may possibly play a minor role. Other receptors involved may also influence the outcome phagocytosis in terms of phagosome-lysosome fusion. In the case of S. typhi , only anti-CR3 antibody significantly inhibited not only phagocytosis of S. typhi but also following phagosome-lysosome fusion. Treatment with K76COONa, an inhibitor of C3bINA (I factor), resulted in a marked inhibition of phagosomelysosome fusion in S. typhi -infected macrophages, although no significant inhibition was observed on phagocytosis of S. typhi . These results suggest that S. typhimurium and S. typhi may be recognized at least in part by CR1 and CR3, respectively, and that the recognition by CR3 but not CR1 is functionally associated with subsequent phagosomelysosome fusion in murine macrophages. 相似文献

Activation of mouse peritoneal macrophages during infection with Salmonella typhimurium does not result in enhanced intracellular killing 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Our study was performed to investigate whether macrophages become activated during an infection with Salmonella typhimurium and, if so, whether these activated macrophages kill S. typhimurium faster than resident macrophages. Mice received i.v. injections with a sublethal number of S. typhimurium; on about day 12 of the infection the numbers of bacteria in the liver and the spleen were maximal. During the infection, activation of peritoneal macrophages could be demonstrated on the basis of three criteria, i.e., the ability to inhibit the proliferation of Toxoplasma gondii, an enhanced production of H2O2 and an increased expression of Ia Ag. The rate of in vitro intracellular killing of S. typhimurium by these activated macrophages was not increased compared to that for resident macrophages. To determine the growth of S. typhimurium in activated mice a nalidixic acid-resistant mutant strain, called S. typhimurium 510R, was used. The net growth rates of the mutant S. typhimurium 510R in the spleen of S. typhimurium 510-activated and normal mice were similar. However, in the liver of S. typhimurium 510-activated mice the number of S. typhimurium 510R did not change during 3 to 48 h after injection. The role of specific antibodies during the initial phase of the infection was negligible, because only low levels of antibodies were detected during the first 15 days of infection and the growth rates of S. typhimurium 510 in the spleen and liver of mice with high titers of antibodies were not significantly different from the rates in normal mice. The results of this study demonstrate that although macrophages become activated during an infection with S. typhimurium, these cells do not display an enhanced bactericidal activity in vitro and in vivo no significant effect on the growth rate of S. typhimurium in the spleen and a bacteriostatic effect in the liver is found. Hence macrophage activation is probably not very important in the host defense against S. typhimurium. 相似文献

Dialyzable factor (DF) prepared from a ribosomal fraction of Salmonella typhimurium was tested for its ability to induce interleukin 1 (IL 1) and 2 (IL 2) production, in relation to acquired resistance, after an intraperitoneal injection of DF. IL 1 production in vitro by peritoneal macrophages of DF-treated mice reached the maximum 4 days after injection, at the time when the nonspecific local resistance via macrophages directly activated with DF became apparent (Kita et al, Microbiol. Immunol. 28:807, 1984). Concanavalin A-induced IL 2 production by splenocytes of DF-treated mice reached the maximal level between days 6 and 8, and it could be enhanced even on day 14. Antigen-induced blastogenic responses of splenocytes from DF-treated mice reached the maximal level 14 days after treatment. Although DF did not show the mitogenic activity to normal splenocytes, T cells of DF-treated mice could respond to S. typhimurium. On the contrary, T cells of normal mice could respond to heat-killed cells of S. typhimurium when they were cultured with macrophages which had been directly stimulated in vitro with DF. Furthermore, T cells from DF-treated mice could respond to antigens of different species of bacteria, and especially to Listeria monocytogenes. These results suggest that T cells of DF-treated mice, being at the intermediate stage of activation via monokines including IL 1 which is produced by macrophages stimulated with DF, are able to proliferate immediately after the administration of challenging organisms as a second signal, and also that the specificity of the response may be defined by the challenging organisms. 相似文献

Local and systemic immune response was studied in 3 groups of rabbits immunized and reimmunized 190 days later with S. typhimurium double-marker attenuated strain 1,771 and doses ranged from 20.10(9) to 0.2.10(9) cells. Another group of rabbits was immunized with extract (hydroxylammine) vaccine. It was found that the attenuated strain persisted for considerable time in the gut, and induced pronounced and continuous immune response as measured by the passive hemagglutination test. The serum antibody response had the character of a secondary one with switching on the synthesis of IgM to IgG already after basic immunisation. By the Coombs' technique it was shown that specific immunoglobulins demonstrated in feces were secretory antibodies of the class IgA (SIgA). The immune response developed after reimmunization was still more vigorous and prolonged pointing to an immune memory existance. It was possible to obtain well manifested immunity with the lowest dose. The extract vaccine revealed only weak and transitory serum and intestinal antibody levels without SIgA appearance. The results obtained in this setup make S. typhimurium 1771 a perspective candidate for a live vaccine. 相似文献

A mutant of Salmonella typhimurium was found to be sensitive to killing by coliphage T7 because of an alteration in its surface properties. However, the infections were abortive and studies with (32)P-labeled T7 grown in Escherichia coli B (T7.B) indicated that the phage DNA was restricted by S. typhimurium. When a mutant T7 which survived the restriction and produced plaques on Salmonella (T7.S) was passed through one cycle of growth in E. coli B, its ability to grow in Salmonella was lost, indicating that host-controlled restriction and modification are operative in this system. Restrictionless S. typhimurium mutants were isolated that permit the growth of not only T7.S but also T7.B and coliphage T3. The physiology of T7 production in the restrictionless host is nearly identical to that in Escherichia coli. 相似文献

The contribution of granulocytes to differences in the innate susceptibility of mouse strains to infection by Salmonella typhimurium was assessed on the basis of the size and composition of the inflammatory exudate after i.p. injection of bacteria and the intracellular killing of the bacteria by exudate peritoneal cells and blood granulocytes of resistant CBA and susceptible C57BL/10 mice. The increase in the numbers of both peritoneal granulocytes and macrophages 24 hr after i.p. injection of various numbers of live S. typhimurium was two to four times higher in C57BL/10 mice (p less than 0.05) than in CBA mice. However, despite the larger number of phagocytes in the inflammatory exudate, the numbers of viable S. typhimurium in the peritoneal cavity 24 hr after injection was higher (p less than 0.01) in C57BL/10 mice than in CBA mice. Because the proportion of noningested bacteria was similar in the two mouse strains (less than 30%), these findings indicate a difference in the rate of intracellular killing of the bacteria by exudate peritoneal cells (greater than 75% granulocytes) of the two mouse strains. Subsequent determination of the initial rate of intracellular killing (Kk) of S. typhimurium revealed that after phagocytosis of the bacteria in vivo, exudate peritoneal granulocytes (harvested 24 hr after i.p. injection of 10(3) live S. typhimurium) of CBA mice killed S. typhimurium twice as efficiently (Kk = 0.014 min-1; p less than 0.01) as exudate granulocytes of C57BL/10 mice (Kk = 0.008 min-1) did. Similarly, the initial rate of intracellular killing of the ingested S. typhimurium by blood granulocytes of CBA mice (Kk = 0.017 min-1) was two times higher (p less than 0.01) than that of C57BL/10 mice (Kk = 0.007 min-1). These findings may be specific for S. typhimurium, because L. monocytogenes were killed with equal efficiency by exudate granulocytes and blood granulocytes of these mouse strains (p greater than 0.20). The results of the present study are relevant with respect to the innate resistance of mice to S. typhimurium, particularly during the initial phase of infection when the inflammatory exudate contains predominantly granulocytes. 相似文献
