利用PCR技术从血清型1/2a的产单核细胞李斯特菌Lm-4株中扩增出actA基因,经克隆筛选和测序鉴定后,构建成该基因的原核表达载体pGEX-6P-1-actA及pET-actA,转入E·coli后,IPTG诱导目的蛋白的表达。SDS-PAGE结果表明,actA基因在两种载体中均获得表达,融合蛋白的大小分别约为120kDa和97kDa。以纯化蛋白为材料进行了ActA单抗的研制,获得4株抗ActA的单克隆抗体杂交瘤细胞株,腹水单抗ELISA效价为1∶5×104~1∶1×105。选取单抗1A5进行Westernblot分析,结果表明单抗1A5能和表达产物进行特异性反应,且与Lm-4多抗血清的Westernblot结果一致。actA基因的原核表达及单抗的研制为研究ActA蛋白的生物学活性及其致病作用奠定了基础。     

单核细胞增生李斯特菌检测技术研究进展

单核细胞增生李斯特菌(Listeria monocytogenes,LM)是常见的食源性致病菌之一。目前,在众多单增李斯特菌的检测方法中应用较广的是免疫学检测法、分子学检测法。免疫学检测时间短,操作简单,但该方法依赖高特异性的抗体,会出现假阳性,还需要进一步鉴定检测结果。分子学检测法克服了免疫学检测法不能在种的水平鉴定单增李斯特菌的缺点,省时省力,灵敏度高,但是分子学检测法需要丰富的操作经验,并且不适于现场大批量检测。新兴的代谢学检测法、光谱学检测法、生物传感器等也都有各自的优缺点。本文综合近年最新文献,就单增李斯特菌检测的最新方法、检测进展及未来发展趋势予以分析综述,以期为该菌的检测提供参考。

单核细胞增生李斯特菌抗酸应激机制

单核细胞增生李斯特菌(Listeria monocytogenes,简称单增李斯特菌)是重要的人畜共患食源性病原,在青贮饲料、发酵食品、宿主胃内以及巨噬细胞吞噬体内都会遭遇酸应激。该菌有多种抗酸应激系统,如F0F1-ATPase、谷氨酸脱羧酶(Glutamate decarboxylase system,GAD)、精氨酸脱亚胺酶(Arginine deiminase,ADI)、鲱氨酸脱亚胺酶(Agmatine deiminase,Ag DI)系统等。在环境pH(pHex)4.5条件下可维持其细胞内pH(pHi)稳态,在pHex 3.5时仍能存活;用温和酸应激(pHex 4.5)预处理单增李斯特菌,可以通过酸耐受反应(Acid tolerance response)提高其在致死性酸性环境中的存活率,这一过程受σB正调控,即σB激活可以保护单增李斯特菌应对多种环境应激。因此,σB可以作为新型抗菌药物的靶标。更为重要的是,弱酸性发酵食品要严格控制李斯特菌的污染,以降低消费者的感染风险。

棉铃虫作为单核细胞增生李斯特菌感染模型的初步研究

研究单核细胞增生李斯特菌(Listeria monocytogenes,简称Lm)对棉铃虫(Helicoverpa armigera)的致病性,探讨棉铃虫作为Lm感染模型的可行性。用野生株EGDe(中毒)、PrfA缺失株(EGDeΔprfA,弱毒)和PrfA组成型高表达株(EGDeΔprfA+pERL3-prfA~*,高毒)腹腔微量注射4龄棉铃虫幼虫,计算半数致死量(LD_(50))和虫体的载菌量,同时观测棉铃虫中肠细胞的病理变化以及血细胞包囊作用和数目。实验结果显示:①EGDe、EGDeΔprfA和EGDeΔprfA+pERL3-prfA~*的LD_(50)分别为2.56×10~3 cfu/mL、1.98×10~6 cfu/mL和6.63×10~2 cfu/mL。②感染Lm后,EGDe和EGDeΔprfA+pERL3-prfA~*在棉铃虫体内各部分的活菌数均有所上升,而EGDeΔprfA却显著下降。③中肠病理切片显示,Lm对棉铃虫幼虫中肠细胞的损伤程度与菌株的毒性高低正相关,并且随时间延长差异更为明显。④EGDeΔprfA+pERL3-prfA~*对棉铃虫血细胞的包囊作用的抑制作用最强,而EGDeΔprfA基本无抑制作用。⑤感染Lm后,棉铃虫的血细胞数量先急剧上升随后减少。72 h时,感染EGDe、EGDeΔprfA和EGDeΔprfA+pERL3-prfA~*的血细胞减少量分别为45%、27%和71%。结果表明,Lm不仅能成功侵染棉铃虫幼虫并致其死亡,且其半数致死量、其对棉铃虫中肠细胞的损伤程度以及对血细胞包囊作用和数量的影响等均与细菌毒力高低有较好的关联性,表明棉铃虫幼虫(至少是4龄棉铃虫幼虫)适合作为研究Lm致病机制的昆虫模型。     

Specificity of the Anamnestic Response Produced by Listeria monocytogenes or Mycobacterium tuberculosis to Challenge With Listeria monocytogenes

When mice immunized with Listeria monocytogenes were given a second injection of listeria, they showed an anamnestic immune response to intravenous challenge with listeria, as measured by enumeration of the viable infecting organisms in the spleens of the infected animals. This response was independent of the effects of the challenge dose. When mice immunized with living or heat-killed attenuated mycobacterial cells were boosted with living H37Ra, there was also an accelerated response to listeria challenge. The response was greater in the mice given the primary immunization with living cells than in those immunized with heat-killed cells. The response to listeria challenge in mice immunized and boosted with mycobacteria was of less magnitude than that in the mice immunized and boosted with listeria. Growth of listeria in the mice immunized and boosted with mycobacteria was retarded only during the first 2 days of the infection, whereas the infecting listeria in mice immunized and boosted with listeria were permanently inactivated. Mice immunized with mycobacterial ribosomal fraction and restimulated with living mycobacterial cells showed no accelerated response to listeria challenge. It is evident from these results that resistance to these organisms is specifically evoked, but that once evoked it is not completely nonspecific in action. Also, the resistance produced by the mycobacterial ribosomal fraction to challenge with mycobacteria is completely specific in action. Therefore, it has been shown that there are two mechanisms involved in acquired immunity to facultative, intracellular parasites. One is nonspecific and mediated by activated macrophages. The other is specific and mediated by a mechanism as yet unknown.     

Behaviour of Listeria monocytogenes during the traditional manufacture of water-buffalo Mozzarella cheese

F. VILLANI, O. PEPE, G. MAURIELLO, G. MOSCHETTI, L. SANNINO AND S. COPPOLA. 1996. The behaviour of a four-strains mixture of Listeria monocytogenes (strains Scott A, V7, OH and Cal) during the traditional manufacture of water-buffalo Mozzarella cheese was investigated at two levels of inoculation: ca 10⁵and 10³cfu ml^-1of vat milk. No significant change in Listeria counts was observed during the curd ripening (4.0–4.5 h), at the end of which the pH ranged between 4.83 and 4.91. A decrease of about 2 log was observed after stretching of the curd in hot water (95°C), followed by complete elimination of Listeria after 48 and 24 h of storage of the final cheese in the conditioning liquid (skim water resulting from the stretching, pH ca 4.0) with initial high and low contamination of the cheese milk respectively. Results also indicated that a 1.7 log reduction of L. monocytogenes could be achieved during the preparation of the natural whey culture utilized as starter in cheesemaking.     

Removal of Listeria monocytogenes dual-species biofilms using combined enzyme-benzalkonium chloride treatments

The effects of pronase (PRN), cellulase (CEL) or DNaseI alone or combined with benzalkonium chloride (BAC) against Listeria monocytogenes-carrying biofilms were assayed. The best removal activity against L. monocytogenes–Escherichia coli biofilms was obtained using DNaseI followed by PRN and CEL. Subsequently, a modified logistic model was used to quantify the combined effects of PRN or DNaseI with BAC. A better BAC performance after PRN compared to DNaseI eradicating L. monocytogenes was observed. In E. coli the effects were the opposite. Finally, effects of DNaseI and DNaseI–BAC treatments were compared against two different L. monocytogenes-carrying biofilms. DNaseI–BAC was more effective against L. monocytogenes when co-cultured with E. coli. Nonetheless, comparing the removal effects after BAC addition, these were higher in mixed-biofilms with Pseudomonas fluorescens. However, a high number of released viable cells was observed after combined treatments. These results open new perspectives of enzymes as an anti-biofilm strategy for environmental pathogen control.     

ISA 61 VG佐剂增强单核细胞增生李斯特氏菌灭活疫苗的保护性免疫应答

单核细胞增生李斯特氏菌(Listeria monocytogenes,Lm)是重要的人兽共患李斯特氏菌病的致病菌,疫苗免疫是预防该病原菌感染的有效手段之一。本研究研制了添加矿物油佐剂MontanideTM ISA61VG的新型灭活细菌疫苗,并对其安全性和免疫应答特性进行了研究。结果表明,ISA 61 VG佐剂疫苗具有较好的安全性;诱导小鼠产生的抗李斯特氏菌溶血素O抗体滴度以及IgG2a/IgG1比值显著高于无佐剂免疫组;在致死剂量Lm攻毒下,能对小鼠提供100%的免疫保护。因此,ISA 61VG佐剂能显著增强灭活疫苗诱导宿主产生体液免疫和细胞免疫应答的能力,从而提高灭活疫苗的保护性免疫应答作用,是预防人和动物Lm感染的潜在疫苗候选株。     

Chemiluminescence by Listeria monocytogenes.

Listeria monocytogenes cells suspended in brain heart infusion broth or in carbonated saline solution emitted light (chemiluminescence) that could be detected by a liquid scintillation spectrometer. This chemiluminescence was inhibited by superoxide dismutase and catalase but not by the hydroxyl radical scavengers mannitol and benzoate; it was also dependent upon and proportional to the carbonate ion concentration in the medium. Organisms suspended in carbonated saline solution which had ceased to chemiluminesce immediately began to chemiluminesce again when acetaldehyde was added but not when glucose, sucrose, or xanthine was added. Acetaldehyde-induced chemiluminescence was inhibited by suproxide dismutase and catalase but not by allopurinol. Our data indicate that the superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide, and the carbonate ion are involved in chemiluminescence by L. monocytogenes. Chemiluminescence is apparently initiated by the extracellular generation of superoxide anon by this organism. The mechanism for the production of the superoxide anion is not known, but xanthine oxidase does not appear to be involved.     

Transport of glycine-betaine by Listeria monocytogenes

Uptake of [¹⁴C]glycine-betaine by Listeria monocytogenes was stimulated by NaCl with optimal stimulation at 0.4–0.5 M. The glycine-betaine transport system had a K _m of 22 M and a V _max of 11.7 nmol^-1 min^-1 mg^-1 protein when grown in the absence of NaCl. When grown in the presence of 0.8 M NaCl the V _max increased to 27.0 nmol^-1 min^-1 mg^-1 protein in 0.8 M NaCl. At NaCl concentrations above 0.5 M the uptake rate of glycine-betaine was reduced. Measurement of intracellular K⁺ concentrations and fluorescent dye quenching indicated that higher NaCl concentrations also led to a decrease in the electrochemical potential difference across the cytoplasmic membrane. Uptake of glycine was also observed, but this was not stimulated by NaCl.     

Rapid detection of Listeria monocytogenes by PCR-ELISA

A rapid detection system specific for Listeria monocytogenes based upon the polymerase chain reaction was developed. The specificity of the primers and the probe annealing to the coding region of the mpl gene proved positive with the DNA from a total of 103 L. monocytogenes strains, while DNA from another 73 Listeria and non-Listeria strains tested negative. To facilitate detection with large numbers of samples, a microtitre plate assay was established with biotinylated probes. Use of a standard DNA prevented false-negative results when used as an internal amplification control in the PCR-ELISA. As the described method required approximately 5-6 h to be completed it may prove useful in the detection of L. monocytogenes in food.     

Effect of stress treatments on the detection of Listeria monocytogenes and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli by the polymerase chain reaction

The relationship between viability assessed by plate counts and detectability by gene probe-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques was examined with cells of Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes previously exposed to a range of stress treatments. In all cases the organisms were detectable by PCR after plate counts had declined to zero. Treatment with acid or hydrogen peroxide caused loss of PCR soon after viability was lost, but strong PCR signals were obtained from starved or desiccated cells long after cells became non-viable. Exposure to temperatures up to 100°C had little effect on detection by PCR and even autoclaving cells at 121°C for 15 min failed to abolish PCR detection completely. There is thus no simple relationship between viability and detectability by PCR. Detection of pathogens by PCR in environmental monitoring requires additional evidence of viability before risk can be properly assessed.     

Physiological effects of high hydrostatic pressure treatments on Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella typhimurium

The effect of a high hydrostatic pressure treatment on the Gram-positive Listeria monocytogenes strain Scott A and the Gram-negative Salmonella typhimurium strain Mutton (ATCC13 311) has been determined in stationary phase cell suspensions. Pressure treatments were done at room temperature for 10 min in sodium citrate (pH 5.6) and sodium phosphate (pH 7.0) suspension buffers. Increasing pressure treatments resulted in an exponential decrease of cell counts. Salmonella typhimurium suspended at low pH was more sensitive to pressure treatments. Progressive morphological changes were evident with the pressure increase. Cell lysis only appeared with the highest pressure treatments. Cell volume was not affected by pressure treatment. A progressive decrease of deltapH (pHin - pHout), intracellular potassium and ATP contents was demonstrated with the pressure increase. A parallel lowering of membrane potentials was measured.     

Utilization of transferrin-bound iron by Listeria monocytogenes

Abstract It has been demonstrated that under iron-restricted conditions, Listeria monocytogenes can utilize iron-loaded transferrin (Tf) from a range of species as its sole source of iron for growth. Human transferrin conjugated to horseradish-peroxidase (HRP-Tf) bound directly to whole cells of L. monocytogenes . This binding was blocked by apotransferrin indicating that the receptor can bind transferrin in either the iron-bound or iron-free form. Transferrin-binding was not host specific because both bovine and equine transferrin inhibited the binding of HRP-conjugated human transferrin. SDS-PAGE and Western blotting of bacterial surface extracts revealed the presence of a transferrin-binding protein of approximately 126 kDa.
