Members of Salmonella enterica are important foodborne pathogens of significant public health concern worldwide. This study aimed to determine a range of virulence genes among typhoidal (S. typhi) and non-typhoidal (S. enteritidis) strains isolated from different geographical regions and different years. A total of 87 S. typhi and 94 S. enteritidis strains were tested for presence of 22 virulence genes by employing multiplex PCR and the genetic relatedness of these strains was further characterized by REP-PCR. In S. typhi, invA, prgH, sifA, spiC, sopB, iroN, sitC, misL, pipD, cdtB, and orfL were present in all the strains, while sopE, agfC, agfA, sefC, mgtC, and sefD were present in 98.8, 97.7, 90.8, 87.4, 87.4 and 17.2 %, of the strains, respectively. No lpfA, lpfC, pefA, spvB, or spvC was detected. Meanwhile, in S. enteritidis, 15 genes, agfA, agfC, invA, lpfA, lpfC, sefD, prgH, spiC, sopB, sopE, iroN, sitC, misL, pipD, and orfL were found in all S. enteritidis strains 100 %, followed by sifA and spvC 98.9 %, pefA, spvB and mgtC 97.8 %, and sefC 90.4 %. cdtB was absent from all S. enteritidis strains tested. REP-PCR subtyped S. typhi strains into 18 REP-types and concurred with the virulotyping results in grouping the strains, while in S. enteritidis, REP-PCR subtyped the strains into eight profiles and they were poorly distinguishable between human and animal origins. The study showed that S. typhi and S. enteritidis contain a range of virulence factors associated with pathogenesis. Virulotyping is a rapid screening method to identify and profile virulence genes in Salmonella strains, and improve an understanding of potential risk for human and animal infections. 相似文献

The genus Salmonella contains more than 2500 serovars. While most cause the self-limiting gastroenteritis, a few serovars can elicit typhoid fever, a severe systemic infection. S. enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium and S. Typhi are the representatives of the gastroenteritis and typhoid fever types of Salmonella. In this study, we adopted Stable Isotope Labeling with Amino acids in Cell culture (SILAC) technology to quantitatively compare the proteomes of the two serovars. We found several proteins with serovar-specific expression, which could be developed as new biomarkers for clinical serotype diagnosis. We found that flagella and chemotaxis genes were down-regulated in S. Typhi in comparison with S. Typhimurium. We attributed this observation to the fact that the smooth cellular structure of S. Typhi may better fit its systemic lifestyle. Instead of known virulence factors that were located within Salmonella Pathogenecity Islands, a number of core genes, which were involved in metabolism and transport of carbohydrates and amino acids, showed differential expression between the two serovars. Further studies on the roles of these differentially-expressed genes in the pathogenesis should be undertaken. 相似文献

鼠伤寒沙门菌表达两个不同的Ⅲ型分泌系统(typeⅢsecretion/translocation systems, TTSS),分别由致病岛1和2(pathogenicityi slands 1 and 2, SPI-1 and SPI-2)编码。细菌依赖TTSS将效应蛋白转运至宿主细胞,通过“触发”机制诱导细菌进入宿主细胞。这些效应蛋白可诱导细胞骨架重排,导致“巨吞饮”,促使细菌入侵。本综述依据多种沙门菌效应蛋白的功能,建立沙门菌侵袭模型。TTSS活化并转运效应蛋白进入宿主细胞发挥功能(Ⅰ)。小G蛋白交换因子SopE和肌醇磷酸酯酶SopB通过激活CDC42和Rac1,诱导内陷相关的蛋白聚集(Ⅱ)。SipA和SipC通过降低肌动蛋白临界浓度、刺激网素成束、稳定纤维状肌动蛋白(fibrousactin, F-actin)以及使肌动蛋白核化等功能,促使细菌入侵(Ⅲ)。SopB可使膜内陷区PIP2的浓度降低以及VAMP8聚集,促使细胞膜分裂(Ⅳ)。这些效应蛋白的联合作用,使膜皱褶在局部向外显著延伸,使沙门菌被细胞内形成的特殊膜结构包裹。沙门菌的另一种效应蛋白SptP,通过刺激小G蛋白内源性GTPase的活性,抑制小G蛋白的活化,使细胞膜恢复至原有状态(Ⅴ)。 相似文献
