人腺病毒(Human adenovirus,HAdV)是引起婴幼儿急性呼吸道感染等多种疾病的重要病原体之一,本文回顾了有关HAdV的分子生物学特征、检测方法及分型、致病机制、相关疾病的临床特征、流行病学特征、HAdV感染的预防和控制研究的文献。迄今为止明确的HAdV有67种不同型别,包括近几年发现的重组变异株。导致急性呼吸道感染的主要流行株为HAdV-3和HAdV-7,属于B亚组,也可以引起其他系统的疾病,所致疾病的临床表现与其他呼吸道病毒相关病毒相似,但多伴消化道症状,其致病机制尚不清楚。对于新发现的变异重组株,其与疾病的相关性研究甚少,需要进一步研究证实。由于没有前瞻性的、大样本的随机对照治疗试验,HAdV感染的治疗目前存在争议。疫苗是降低呼吸道HAdV感染最有效的措施,但还没有上市的产品。 相似文献

质粒介导的喹诺酮耐药基因qnr的分类、耐药机制及其在国内的流行状况北大核心CSCD 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
喹诺酮类抗菌药物从早期主要用于治疗尿道感染发展到后来治疗肠道感染和呼吸道感染,目前已在临床、畜牧业和水产业中广泛使用,细菌对其耐药性也逐渐呈蔓延趋势,耐药机制日趋复杂。喹诺酮类耐药机制主要分为染色体介导的耐药和质粒介导的耐药,后者对细菌耐药性的广泛传播起着重要作用。1998年首次报道了质粒介导的喹诺酮类耐药机制,即质粒上qnr基因介导的细菌对氟喹诺酮耐药机制,qnr基因可在不同细菌中迅速水平传播,引发的感染不易控制,使得院内感染大范围的流行。此外,qnr基因通常与β-内酰胺类耐药基因相关或存在于复杂整合子中与其它多重耐药基因共同整合,缩小了临床医生治疗相关细菌感染时选药或联合用药的空间,给我们带来了严峻的挑战。本文就qnr基因的发现历史、耐药机理及在国内的流行状况做了详细概述。 相似文献

In the study the usefulness of genotyping methods for genetic variability examinations of non-typeable H. influenzae strains circulating in population as well as level the variability of NTHi strains isolated from healthy children and from symptomatic infection cases have been evaluated. Among genotyping methods evaluated, AFLP method of the MfeI/BglII set has been found most useful to study level of genetic variability of NTHi strains population. It has been shown that NTHi strains colonizing nasopharyngeal of healthy children present higher polymorphism level than strains isolated from patient with clinical symptoms of NTHi infection. 相似文献

Nontypable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) has emerged as an important opportunistic pathogen causing infection in adults suffering obstructive lung diseases. Existing evidence associates chronic infection by NTHi to the progression of the chronic respiratory disease, but specific features of NTHi associated with persistence have not been comprehensively addressed. To provide clues about adaptive strategies adopted by NTHi during persistent infection, we compared sequential persistent isolates with newly acquired isolates in sputa from six patients with chronic obstructive lung disease. Pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) identified three patients with consecutive persistent strains and three with new strains. Phenotypic characterisation included infection of respiratory epithelial cells, bacterial self-aggregation, biofilm formation and resistance to antimicrobial peptides (AMP). Persistent isolates differed from new strains in showing low epithelial adhesion and inability to form biofilms when grown under continuous-flow culture conditions in microfermenters. Self-aggregation clustered the strains by patient, not by persistence. Increasing resistance to AMPs was observed for each series of persistent isolates; this was not associated with lipooligosaccharide decoration with phosphorylcholine or with lipid A acylation. Variation was further analyzed for the series of three persistent isolates recovered from patient 1. These isolates displayed comparable growth rate, natural transformation frequency and murine pulmonary infection. Genome sequencing of these three isolates revealed sequential acquisition of single-nucleotide variants in the AMP permease sapC, the heme acquisition systems hgpB, hgpC, hup and hxuC, the 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid kinase kdkA, the long-chain fatty acid transporter ompP1, and the phosphoribosylamine glycine ligase purD. Collectively, we frame a range of pathogenic traits and a repertoire of genetic variants in the context of persistent infection by NTHi. 相似文献

Binding of the non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae lipooligosaccharide to the PAF receptor initiates host cell signalling 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0

Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) invades host cells by binding of the platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor via lipooligosaccharide (LOS) glycoforms containing phosphorylcholine (ChoP). The effect of NTHi infection on host cell signalling and its role in NTHi invasion was examined. The infection of human bronchial epithelial cells with NTHi 2019 increased cytosolic Ca2+ levels, and the invasion of bronchial cells by NTHi 2019 was inhibited by pretreatment with the cell-permeant intracellular Ca2+ chelator BAPTA-AM ( P = 0.022) or thapsigargin ( P = 0.016). Cytosolic inositol phosphate (IP) levels were also increased after infection with NTHi 2019 ( P < 0.001), but not after infection with isogenic mutants expressing altered LOS glycoforms lacking ChoP. PAF receptor antagonist reduced NTHi 2019-stimulated IP production in a dose-dependent manner. NTHi 2019 invasion was inhibited by pertussis toxin (PTX) and the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002. The less invasive strain NTHi 7502 also initiated IP production, but was unaffected by PAF receptor antagonist or PTX. These data demonstrate that the binding of the PAF receptor by NTHi initiates receptor coupling to a PTX-sensitive heterotrimeric G protein complex, resulting in a multifactorial host cell signal cascade and bacterial invasion. Moreover, the data suggest that NTHi strains initiate cell signalling and invade by different mechanisms, and that invasion mediated by PAF receptor activation is more efficient than macropinocytosis. 相似文献

Nonencapsulated (nontypeable) Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a Gram-negative coccobacillus colonizing upper respiratory tract of most healthy people and causing such diseases as otitis media, sinusitis, exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bronchitis. NTHi may cause systemic infection. As a result, over the past decade the bacterium has been the subject of intense research. However immune response to NTHi has not been well characterized. Data on research of immune response to NTHi are presented. 相似文献

Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi), an important human respiratory pathogen, frequently causes biofilm infections. Currently, resistance of bacteria within the biofilm to conventional antimicrobials poses a major obstacle to effective medical treatment on a global scale. Novel agents that are effective against NTHi biofilm are therefore urgently required. In this study, a series of natural and synthetic chalcones with various chemical substituents were evaluated in vitro for their antibiofilm activities against strong biofilm‐forming strains of NTHi. Of the test chalcones, 3‐hydroxychalcone (chalcone 8 ) exhibited the most potent inhibitory activity, its mean minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC50) being 16 μg/mL (71.35 μM), or approximately sixfold more active than the reference drug, azithromycin (MBIC50 419.68 μM). The inhibitory activity of chalcone 8 , which is a chemically modified chalcone, appeared to be superior to those of the natural chalcones tested. Significantly, chalcone 8 inhibited biofilm formation by all studied NTHi strains, indicating that the antibiofilm activities of this compound occur across multiple strong‐biofilm forming NTHi isolates of different clinical origins. According to antimicrobial and growth curve assays, chalcone 8 at concentrations that decreased biofilm formation did not affect growth of NTHi, suggesting the biofilm inhibitory effect of chalcone 8 is non‐antimicrobial. In terms of structure–activity relationship, the possible substituent on the chalcone backbone required for antibiofilm activity is discussed. These findings indicate that 3‐hydroxychalcone (chalcone 8 ) has powerful antibiofilm activity and suggest the potential application of chalcone 8 as a new therapeutic agent for control of NTHi biofilm‐associated infections. 相似文献

Nontypable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a major cause of opportunistic respiratory tract disease, and initiates infection by colonizing the nasopharynx. Bacterial surface proteins play determining roles in the NTHi-airways interplay, but their specific and relative contribution to colonization and infection of the respiratory tract has not been addressed comprehensively. In this study, we focused on the ompP5 and hap genes, present in all H. influenzae genome sequenced isolates, and encoding the P5 and Hap surface proteins, respectively. We employed isogenic single and double mutants of the ompP5 and hap genes generated in the pathogenic strain NTHi375 to evaluate P5 and Hap contribution to biofilm growth under continuous flow, to NTHi adhesion, and invasion/phagocytosis on nasal, pharyngeal, bronchial, alveolar cultured epithelial cells and alveolar macrophages, and to NTHi murine pulmonary infection. We show that P5 is not required for bacterial biofilm growth, but it is involved in NTHi interplay with respiratory cells and in mouse lung infection. Mechanistically, P5NTHi375 is not a ligand for CEACAM1 or α5 integrin receptors. Hap involvement in NTHi375-host interaction was shown to be limited, despite promoting bacterial cell adhesion when expressed in H. influenzae RdKW20. We also show that Hap does not contribute to bacterial biofilm growth, and that its absence partially restores the deficiency in lung infection observed for the ΔompP5 mutant. Altogether, this work frames the relative importance of the P5 and Hap surface proteins in NTHi virulence. 相似文献

Bacterial infections following rhinovirus (RV), a common cold virus, are well documented, but pathogenic mechanisms are poorly understood. We developed animal and cell culture models to examine the effects of RV on subsequent infection with non-typeable Hemophilus influenzae (NTHi). We focused on NTHI-induced neutrophil chemoattractants expression that is essential for bacterial clearance. Mice infected with RV1B were superinfected with NTHi and lung bacterial density, chemokines and neutrophil counts determined. Human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) or mouse alveolar macrophages (MH-S) were infected with RV and challenged with NHTi, TLR2 or TLR5 agonists. Chemokine levels were measured by ELISA and expression of IRAK-1, a component of MyD88-dependent TLR signaling, assessed by immunoblotting. While sham-infected mice cleared all NTHi from the lungs, RV-infected mice showed bacteria up to 72 h post-infection. However, animals in RV/NTHi cleared bacteria by day 7. Delayed bacterial clearance in RV/NTHi animals was associated with suppressed chemokine levels and neutrophil recruitment. RV-infected BEAS-2B and MH-S cells showed attenuated chemokine production after challenge with either NTHi or TLR agonists. Attenuated chemokine responses were associated with IRAK-1 protein degradation. Inhibition of RV-induced IRAK-1 degradation restored NTHi-stimulated IL-8 expression. Knockdown of TLR2, but not other MyD88-dependent TLRs, also restored IRAK-1, suggesting that TLR2 is required for RV-induced IRAK-1 degradation.In conclusion, we demonstrate for the first time that RV infection delays bacterial clearance in vivo and suppresses NTHi-stimulated chemokine responses via degradation of IRAK-1. Based on these observations, we speculate that modulation of TLR-dependent innate immune responses by RV may predispose the host to secondary bacterial infection, particularly in patients with underlying chronic respiratory disorders. 相似文献

Non‐typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a major pathogen causing acute otitis media (AOM). The relationship between the cellular content of the middle ear fluid (MEF) during AOM and infection of NTHi is poorly understood. Using the Junbo mouse, a characterised NTHi infection model, we analysed the cellular content of MEF and correlated the data with NTHi titres. The MEF of the Junbo mouse was heterogeneous between ears and was graded from 1 to 5; 1 being highly serous/clear and 5 being heavily viscous/opaque. At seven‐day post‐intranasal inoculation, NTHi was not found in grade‐1 or 2 fluids, and the proportion of MEF that supported NTHi increased with the grade. Analyses by flow cytometry indicated that the cellular content was highest in grade‐4 and 5 fluids, with a greater proportion of necrotic cells and a low‐live cell count. NTHi infection of the middle ear increased the cell count and led to infiltration of immune cells and changes in the cytokine and chemokine levels. Following NTHi inoculation, high‐grade infected MEFs had greater neutrophil infiltration whereas monocyte infiltration was significantly higher in serous noninfected low‐grade fluids. These data underline a role for immune cells, specifically monocytes and neutrophils, and cell necrosis in NTHi infection of the Junbo mouse middle ear. 相似文献
