非01群霍乱弧菌溶血素基因的初步研究

本文报导86个不同血清型非01群霍乱弧菌菌株,用含El Tor霍乱弧菌溶血素基因的同位素探针作菌落原位杂交,结果显示其中80个菌株(占93%)具有与El Tor霍乱弧菌溶血素同源性基因;其余6株菌则显示阴性结果,表明不存在这种溶血素基因。但用表型方法测定时,它们都显示有溶血性。此说明非01群霍乱弧菌中存在有不同种溶血素。

霍乱弧菌抗原的漂移及其预防菌苗的研究

引起霍乱病世界大流行的病源菌、近几十年发生了两次大的变化，以此分类，前后发生了３次世界性大流行，分别由古典生物型霍乱弧菌、ＥｌＴｏｒ生物型霍乱弧菌和０１３９型霍乱弧菌引发。３个霍乱弧菌之间都有明显不同点，尤其Ｏ１３９型霍乱弧菌，它超脱０１抗原范畴，预示着一次新的大流行开始。进一步的分析证明：Ｏ１３９型已远离古典生物型，而更相似於ＥｌＴｏｒ生物型霍乱弧菌、表明三者之间的抗原漂移关系。本文就当今霍乱菌苗研究的几个途径，分别阐述了进展情况，并引用了大量的霍乱人体试验材料证明：０１霍乱弧菌有很强的免疫力，提示霍乱菌苗研究的可行性和急迫性。

Alteration of cholera toxin biosynthesis in Vibrio cholerae 01 as a result of temperate phage 139 integration into bacterial chromosome

Infection of V. cholerae 01 (classical and eltor biovars) cells with the temperate cholera phage 139 derived from V. cholerae serogroup 0139 followed by integration of the phage genome into the bacterial chromosome significantly increased the production of cholera toxin, the main virulence factor. The level of toxin biosynthesis in the lysogenic V. cholerae classical strain increased 3-fold and that in V. eltor thirty times in comparison with the parental strains. Increased production of cholera toxin was not associated with an increase in the number of copies of genes involved in its biosynthesis but seemed to be due to changes in toxinogenesis regulation.     

Epidemic isolates of Vibrio cholerae 0139 express antigenically distinct types of colonization pili

Abstract Vibrio cholerae belonging to the recently described serogroup 0139, which are responsible for the current cholera epidemics in India and Bangladesh, were shown to express pilus-like structures partially cross-reacting with the toxin-coregulated pilus of V. cholerae strain (0395) belonging to the 01 serogroup and classical biotype. The 0139 pili were composed of 20 kDa subunit proteins which were antigenically related to the 20 kDa pilus protein of another diarrhoeagenic non-01 V. cholerae strain (serogroup 034) isolated earlier. The pili described in this study were found to be involved in the intestinal colonization process and, therefore, may contribute towards the virulence of the 0139 epidemic isolates.     

Vibrio cholerae temperate phage O139: characteristics and role in changing expression of chromosomal virulence genes

Restriction analysis of temperate cholera phage 139 isolated from Vibrio cholerae P16064, serogroup 0139, showed its DNA to be double-stranded linear with cohesive terminals. DNA-DNA hybridization on nylon membranes revealed that many V. cholerae strains of serogroup 0139 isolated in different regions contained a temperate cholera phage 139 in their genomes. Southern blot hybridization of chromosomal DNA PST-fragments with phage probe showed that the temperate phage 139 was identical to the temperate phage of serogroup II V. eltor. The phage integrated in the chromosome near genes encoding motility (mot) and production of the capsule (cap) and purine (pur). Phage genome is apparently responsible for instability of cap, pur, and mot genes whose products are important for the development of an infectious process in cholera.     

多重PCR方法检测霍乱弧菌的研究

霍乱弧菌是霍乱的病原体,可以分为O1群、O139群和非O1/非O139群。O1群和O139群霍乱弧菌产生的霍乱肠毒素(也称霍乱毒素)是产生霍乱的主要原因,也只有O1群和O139群霍乱弧菌可引起霍乱。其他群的霍乱弧菌毒性不高,但在食品中也不允许被检出。实验以霍乱胶原酶基因和霍乱毒素基因为目的基因,试图建立一种PCR方法对霍乱弧菌进行检测研究,结果表明此方法可以用于食品中的霍乱弧菌检测。     

Incidence and toxigenicity of Vibrio cholerae in a freshwater lake during the epidemic of cholera caused by serogroup O139 Bengal in Calcutta, India

Abstract The extent of contamination of a freshwater lake with Vibrio cholerae 0139 Bengal and the toxigenicity of all the V. cholerae isolates recovered during the period of the study were examined during and after an explosive outbreak of 0139 cholera in Calcutta. Strains biochemically characterized as V. cholerae could be isolated throughout the period of study examined from the freshwater lake samples. Most probable number of V. cholerae belonging to the 0139 serogroup in surface waters was 3 to 4 per 100 ml during major part of the study but isolation of this serogroup from sediment and plankton samples was infrequent. Of the total of 150 strains recovered, 23 (15.3%) agglutinated with the 0139 antiserum while the remaining belonged to the non-O1 non-O139 serogroups. None of the strains agglutinated with the O1 antiserum. All the 23 strains of V. cholerae O139 produced cholera toxin while 7.9% of the 127 non-O1 non-O139 strains also produced cholera toxin. Resistance to ampilicillin, furazolidone and streptomycin was encountered among strains belonging to both V. cholerae O139 and V. cholerae non-O1 non-O139 strains, but the percentage of resistant strains in the former was much higher than in the latter. During this cholera epidemic, possibly due to the introduction of large numbers of toxigenic V. cholerae such as the O139 serogroup, there was an increase in the number of toxigenic vibrios among the innocuous aquatic residents. This presumably occured through genetic exchange and, if substantiated, could play an important role in the re-emergence of epidemics.     

霍乱O139型菌苗的试制

对来自孟加拉、泰国、印度、中国四地区Ｏ１３９型霍乱菌株进行了毒力、免疫原性、免疫力与相互交叉保护力试验,结果显示不同地区分离的Ｏ１３９型霍乱弧菌其所试特性相互间无差异。用中国（９３－３）株试制的菌体菌苗,其抗原性、毒性、免疫力安全性等经检定符合霍乱菌苗规程要求。鉴于Ｏ１３９型霍乱弧菌存在荚膜的特性,而现有的几种荚膜多糖菌苗都显示有明显的保护作用,因而,使用Ｏ１３９型菌苗有可能在一定程度上达到控制Ｏ１３９型霍乱流行的目的。     

Distribution of the zot (zonula occludens toxin) gene among strains of Vibrio cholerae 01 and non-01

Abstract The distribution of the zot gene that encodes the zonula occludens toxin, a newly described toxin of Vibrio cholerae , among clinical, environmental and food isolates of V. cholerae 01 and non-01 was investigated. Both the zot gene and the ctx gene that encode cholera toxin were found in 247 of 257 clinical strains and 62 of 415 environmental or food isolates of V. cholerae 01. The zot gene, but not the ctx gene was found in 37 strains (one clinical strain and 36 environmental or food isolates). In addition, two of 31 clinical strains and six of 98 environmental or food isolates of V. cholerae non-01 possessed both the zot gene and the ctx gene. These results demonstrated the predominantly concurrent occurrence of the zot gene and ctx genes among strains of V. cholerae 01 which suggests a possible synergistic role of ZOT in the causation of acute dehydrating diarrhea produced by V. cholerae 01.     

Molecular ecology of toxigenic Vibrio cholerae

Toxigenic Vibrio cholerae is the etiological agent of cholera, an acute dehydrating diarrhea that occurs in epidemic form in many developing countries. Although V. cholerae is a human pathogen, aquatic ecosystems are major habitats of Vibrio species, which includes both pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains that vary in their virulence gene content. V. cholerae belonging to the 01 and 0139 serogroups is commonly known to carry a set of virulence genes necessary for pathogenesis in humans. Recent studies have indicated that virulence genes or their homologues are also dispersed among environmental strains of V. cholerae belonging to diverse serogroups, which appear to constitute an environmental reservoir of virulence genes. Although the definitive roles of the virulence-associated factors in the environment, and the environmental selection pressures for V. cholerae-carrying virulence genes or their homologues is not clear, the potential for origination of new epidemic strains from environmental progenitors seems real. It is likely that the aquatic environment harbors different virulence-associated genes scattered among environmental vibrios, which possess a lower virulence potential than the epidemic strains. The ecosystem comprising the aquatic environment, V. cholerae, genetic elements mediating gene transfer, and the mammalian host appears to support the clustering of critical virulence genes in a proper combination leading to the origination of new V. cholerae strains with epidemic potential.     

Strains of Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 that produce the basic protective antigens

To find out stable and effective producers of major protective antigens intended for use as components of cholera chemical vaccine against V. cholerae strains of serogroups O and O139, the comparative analysis of the production of cholera toxin, toxin-coregulated pili (TCP), antigens O1 and O139, polysaccharide capsule and outer membrane protein OmpU in different V. cholerae strains groups O1 and O139 has been made. V. cholerae strain KM68, serogroup O1, has been found capable of the production of antigen O1, serovar Ogawa, protein OmpU at a sufficiently high level and the hyperproduction of cholera toxin and TCP, and thus suitable for use in the manufacture of cholera bivalent vaccine as the source of these antigens. Specially selected alysogenic noncapsular strain KM137 of serogroup O139, characterized by a high and stable level of the biosynthesis of this somatic antigen when grown in both laboratory and production conditions, may serve as the produces of antigen O139.
