Adhesion is a crucial first step in Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis. In this study, we examined how the adhesion properties of serotypes correlate with their invasion efficiencies in a cell culture model (Caco-2) and in a mouse model. Adhesion characteristics of all 13 serotypes of L. monocytogenes (25 strains) were analyzed, which yielded three distinct groups (P < 0.05) with high-, medium-, and low-level-adhesion profiles. The efficiency of these strains in invading the Caco-2 cell line was analyzed, which produced two groups; however, the overall correlation (R2) was only 0.1236. In the mouse bioassay, all selected strains, irrespective of their adhesion profiles, translocated to the liver and the spleen with almost equal frequencies that did not show any clear relationship with adhesion profiles. However, the serotypes with increased adhesion showed a slightly increased translocation to the brain (R2 = 0.3371). Collectively, these results indicate that an in vitro adhesion profile might not be an accurate assessment of a strain's ability to invade a cultured cell line or organs or tissues in a mouse model. 相似文献

A PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method was developed in order to screen a large number of strains for impaired adhesion to epithelial cells due to expression of truncated InlA. inlA polymorphism was analyzed by PCR-RFLP in order to correlate inlA PCR-RFLP profiles and production of truncated InlA. Thirty-seven Listeria monocytogenes strains isolated from various sources, including five noninvasive and two invasive reference strains, were screened. Two endonucleases (AluI and Tsp509I) were used, and they generated five composite profiles. Thirteen L. monocytogenes isolates were characterized by two specific PCR-RFLP profiles similar to PCR-RFLP profiles of noninvasive reference strains previously described as strains that produce truncated InlA. Ten of the 13 isolates showed low abilities to invade human epithelial Caco-2 cells. However, 4 of the 13 isolates were able to invade Caco-2 cells like reference strains containing complete InlA. Sequencing of inlA and Western blot analysis confirmed that truncated InlA was expressed in the 10 L. monocytogenes strains which were isolated from food. This PCR-RFLP method allowed us to identify 10 new strains expressing a truncated internalin. Based on the results obtained in this study, the PCR-RFLP method seems to be an interesting method for rapidly screening L. monocytogenes strains deficient in the ability to invade Caco-2 cells when a sizeable number of strains are studied. 相似文献

Aims: To evaluate the adhesion ability of intestinal bacteria to different in vitro models of intestinal epithelia, and to estimate the suitability of these models and the type of interactions involved.
Methods and results: The adhesion of probiotic ( Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp . lactis Bb12), commensal ( B. animalis IATA-A2 and B. bifidum IATA-ES2) and potentially pathogenic bacteria ( E. coli and L. monocytogenes ) was determined. The adhesion models used were polycarbonate-well plates, with or without mucin, and different configurations of Caco-2 and/or HT29-MTX cell cultures. All bacteria adhered to wells without mucin (2·6–27·3%), the values being highly variable depending on the bacterial strain. Adhesion percentages of potentially probiotic bacteria to Caco-2 cultures were remarkably lower ( P < 0·05) than those to mucin, and more similar to those of pathogenic strains. The lowest adhesion of different bacterial strains was detected on HT29-MTX (0·5–2·3%) cultures and Caco-2/HT29-MTX (0·6–3·2%) cocultures, while these values were increased in Caco-2 cultures plus mucin.
Conclusions: The results suggested that bacterial strains exhibit different capacities to adhere to cellular components and several types of mucin present in different models, showing preferences for intestinal MUC2.
Significance and impact of the study: The use of Caco-2 cells monolayer plus mucin (type II) better approaches the physiological characteristics of in vivo situation, providing a reliable and suitable in vitro model to evaluate bacterial adhesion. 相似文献

The invasion ability of Listeria monocytogenes into cultured cells has been used to evaluate its pathogenicity. In this study, invasive ability was investigated using Vero and Caco-2 cell lines. The form of invasion showed no morphological differences between both cell lines inoculated with L. monocytogenes L89-H2 or L96-23C1 strains when double fluorescence stained with rhodamine and FITC or with Giemsa staining. Recovery count and recovery rate of L. monocytogenes from Vero cells was related to the number of inoculated bacteria (2 x 10(5) to 2 x 10(7)/ml) in a bell-shape pattern, though the relationship was unclear in Caco-2 cells. Recovery rate of L. monocytogenes was higher in Vero cells than Caco-2 cells at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) 10, though the rates in both cells showed different stable stages over a considerably wide range of MOI. The recovery rate of all five L. monocytogenes strains from listeriosis patients was 15% at MOI 10 from infected Vero cells, while meat-derived strains showed variable rates regardless of the serovar. These results suggest that the Vero cell line is suitable for an invasion assay and that a recovery rate of 15% may be the critical limit for the expression of pathogenicity in the host. 相似文献

Influence of temperature and growth phase on expression of a 104-kilodalton Listeria adhesion protein in Listeria monocytogenes. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Interaction of Listeria monocytogenes with mammalian intestinal cells is believed to be an important first step in Listeria pathogenesis. Transposon (Tn916) mutagenesis provided strong evidence that a 104-kDa surface protein, designated the Listeria adhesion protein (LAP), was involved in adherence of L. monocytogenes to a human enterocyte-like Caco-2 cell line (V. Pandiripally, D. Westbrook, G. Sunki, and A. Bhunia, J. Med. Microbiol. 48:117-124, 1999). In this study, expression of LAP in L. monocytogenes at various growth temperatures (25, 37, and 42 degrees C) and in various growth phases was determined by performing an enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) and Western blotting with a specific monoclonal antibody (monoclonal antibody H7). The ELISA and Western blot results indicated that there was a significant increase in LAP expression over time only at 37 and 42 degrees C and that the level of LAP expression was low during the exponential phase and high during the stationary phase. In contrast, there were not significant differences in LAP expression between the exponential and stationary phases at 25 degrees C. Examination of the adhesion of L. monocytogenes cells from exponential-phase (12-h) or stationary-phase (24-h) cultures grown at 37 degrees C to Caco-2 cells revealed that there were not significant differences in adhesion. Although expression of L. monocytogenes LAP was different at different growth temperatures and in different growth phases, enhanced expression did not result in increased adhesion, possibly because only a few LAP molecules were sufficient to initiate binding to Caco-2 cells. 相似文献

Invasion of tissue culture cells by diarrhoeagenic strains of Escherichia coli which lack the enteroinvasive inv gene 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Abstract Invasive Escherichia coli strains of certain serotypes invade by the same mechanism as the Shigella sp. It has been proposed that invasion of epithelial cells by EPEC strains may also occur; this is a previously overlooked property. In the present study E. coli strains isolated from patients with diarrhoea or ulcerative colitis, lacking the inv plasmid mediating classical invasion, but hybridizing with probes for different adhesins, were analyzed for their ability to invade HeLa and Caco-2 cells. The majority of strains invaded Caco-2 cells to a higher extent than HeLa cells. Adhesion to Caco-2 cells was a prerequisite for subsequent invasion of the cells but EAF, eae , EAgg and other known virulence factors were not sufficient to mediate invasion. In 8/9 E. coli strains invasion was enhanced after growth under iron restriction. Growth during anaerobic conditions did not influence subsequent invasion by E. coli strains whereas 6/9 strains had their invasive ability significantly decreased after growth in the presence of 1% glucose. The invasive process was inhibited by mannose but not by lactose, fucose or galactose. Our data indicate that strains of E. coli may invade Caco-2 cells by novel mechanisms which require adhesion to the cells but which differ from those of Salmonella sp., Yersinia sp., Shigella sp. and classical enteroinvasive E. coli . 相似文献

Attachment of Lactobacillus casei strain GG to human colon carcinoma cell line Caco-2: comparison with other dairy strains 总被引:7,自引:1,他引:6
The degree of adhesion of Lactobacillus casei strain GG to human Caco-2 cell line was investigated. Assessment of adhesion was compared to the adhesion of enterotoxigenic human Escherichia coli strain H 10407 and enterotoxigenic bovine E. coli strain B44 (non-adhesive). Freeze-dried Lactobacillus GG or samples from dairy products had medium to strong binding to the Caco-2 cell line. Lactobacillus acidophilus (NCFB 1748) and L. bulgaricus showed no adhesion to the cell line while four tested Bifidobacterium strains had no or very weak adhesion to the Caco-2 cell line. 相似文献

Adhesion of Enterococcus mundtii ST4SA and Lactobacillus plantarum 423 to Caco-2 (human carcinoma epithelial) cells was visualized by fluorescent staining. Both strains showed good adhesion
compared to L. casei MB1, L. casei Shirota, L. johnsonii La1 and L. rhamnosus GG. No correlation was found between hydrophobicity, aggregation and adhesion to Caco-2 cells. Presence of antibiotics and
anti-inflammatory medicaments reduced adhesion of bacterial strains to Caco-2 cells. Proteins sensitive to pepsin, trypsin
and pronase are involved in the adhesion of E. mundtii ST4SA and L. plantarum 423 to Caco-2 cells. Adhesion of Listeria monocytogenes ScottA to Caco-2 cells was not prevented by E. mundtii ST4SA and L. plantarum 423. Cell-free culture supernatants of strains ST4SA and 423, containing the antimicrobial peptides plantaricin 423 and peptide
ST4SA, prevented the invasion of L. monocytogenes ScottA into Caco-2 cells. 相似文献

Comparison of the adherence of three Lactobacillus strains to Caco-2 and Int-407 human intestinal cell lines 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
F. SAREM, L.O. SAREM-DAMERDJI AND J.P. NICOLAS. 1996. Adhesion of three Lactobacillus strains onto human epithelial intestinal Caco-2 and Int-407 cell lines was compared. More adhesion occurred onto Int-407. The trypsin and sodium periodate pretreatment of bacteria revealed different mechanisms of adhesion depending on the Caco-2 and Int-407, involving carbohydrates and proteins. The absence of adherence for one Lactobacillus strain onto both cell lines indicated the specificity of the adhesion. Electron microscopic observations showed that bacteria adhered by underlying the brush border microvilli of the Caco-2 surface contrasting onto the Int-407 which entrapped and surrounded them by fimbrial extracellular cell matrix material. 相似文献

Human intestinal cell models are widely used to study host-enteric pathogen interactions, with different cell lines exhibiting specific characteristics and functions in the gut epithelium. In particular, the presence of mucus may play an important role in adhesion and invasion of pathogens. The aim of this study was to evaluate the suitability of the mucus-secreting HT29-MTX intestinal epithelial cell model to test adhesion and invasion of Salmonella strains and compare with data obtained with the more commonly used Caco-2 and HT-29 models. Adhesion of Salmonella to HT29-MTX cell model was significantly higher, likely due to high adhesiveness to mucins present in the native human mucus layer covering the whole cell surface, compared to the non- and low-mucus producing Caco-2 and HT-29 cell models, respectively. In addition, invasion percentages of some clinical Salmonella strains to HT29-MTX cultures were remarkably higher than to Caco-2 and HT-29 cells suggesting that these Salmonellae have subverted the mucus to enhance pathogenicity. The transepithelial electrical resistances of the infected HT29-MTX cell model decreased broadly and were highly correlated with invasion ability of the strain. Staining of S. Typhimurium-infected cell epithelium confirmed the higher invasion by Salmonella and subsequent disruption of tight junctions of HT29-MTX cell model compared with the Caco-2 and HT-29 cell models. Data from this study suggest that the HT29-MTX cell model, with more physiologically relevant characteristics with the mucus layer formation, could be better suited for studying cells–pathogens interactions. 相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne, opportunistic, bacterial pathogen causing a wide spectrum of diseases, including meningitis, septicemia, abortion, and gastroenteritis, in humans and animals. Among the 13 L. monocytogenes serovars described, human listeriosis is mostly associated with strains of serovars 4b, 1/2b, and 1/2a. Within the species L. monocytogenes, three phylogenetic lineages are described. Serovar 1/2a belongs to phylogenetic lineage I, while serovars 4b and 1/2b group in phylogenetic lineage II. To explore the role of gene expression in the adaptation of L. monocytogenes strains of these two major lineages to different environments, as well as in virulence, we performed whole-genome expression profiling of six L. monocytogenes isolates of serovars 4b, 1/2b, and 1/2a of distinct origins, using a newly constructed Listeria multigenome DNA array. Comparison of the global gene expression profiles revealed differences among strains. The expression profiles of two strains having distinct 50% lethal doses, as assessed in the mouse model, were further analyzed. Gene ontology term enrichment analysis of the differentially expressed genes identified differences in protein-, nucleic acid-, carbon metabolism-, and virulence-related gene expression. Comparison of the expression profiles of the core genomes of all strains revealed differences between the two lineages with respect to cell wall synthesis, the stress-related sigma B regulon and virulence-related genes. These findings suggest different patterns of interaction with host cells and the environment, key factors for host colonization and survival in the environment. 相似文献

The intense innate immunological activities occurring at the enteric mucosal surface involve interactions between intestinal epithelial cells and immune cells. Our previous studies have indicated that Peyer's patch lymphocytes may modulate intestinal epithelial barrier and ion transport function in homeostasis and host defense via cell-cell contact as well as cytokine signaling. The present study was undertaken using the established co-culture system of Caco-2 epithelial cells with lymphocytes of Peyer's patch to investigate the expression of IL-8 and IL-6 cytokines and cytokine receptors in the co-culture system after challenge with Shigella F2a-12 lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The human colonic epithelial cell line Caco-2 was co-cultured with freshly isolated lymphocytes from the murine Peyer's patch either in the mixed or separated (isolated but permeable compartments) co-culture configuration, and was challenged with Shigella F2a-12 LPS for 8 h. The level of mRNA expressions of human interleukin-8 (hIL-8), human interleukin-8 receptor (hIL-8R), mouse interleukin-8 receptor (mIL-8R), mouse interleukin-6 (mIL-6), mouse interleukin-6 receptor (mIL-6R) and human interleukin-6 receptor (hIL-6R) was examined by semi-quantitative PCR. In both co-culture groups, hIL-8 expression of Caco-2 cells was decreased, and hIL-8R expression was increased compared to the Caco-2 alone group. Upon LPS challenge, hIL-8 expression from the Caco-2 cells of both co-culture groups was higher than in the Caco-2 control group. The increased hIL-8 expression of Caco-2 cells in the separated co-culture group is correlated with a decreased hIL-8R expression and an increased mIL-8R expression. In the mixed co-culture group, the increased expression of hIL-8 was associated with the upregulated hIL-8R expression on Caco-2 cells and downregulated mIL-8R on murine Peyer's patch lymphocytes (PPL). mIL-6 expression from mouse PPL was also upregulated by LPS in mixed co-culture. However, upon the treatment with LPS, hIL-6R expression of Caco-2 cells was decreased in the mixed co-culture, but increased in separated co-culture. The data suggest that release of hIL-8 from epithelial cells may act on lymphocytes through a paracrine pathway, but it may also act on the epithelial cells themselves via an autocrine pathway. The data also suggest that the release of mIL-6 from Peyer's patch lymphocytes affects epithelial cells in a paracrine fashion. 相似文献

Inhibition of adhesion of enteroinvasive pathogens to human intestinal Caco-2 cells by Lactobacillus acidophilus strain LB decreases bacterial invasion 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Abstract Salmonella typhimurium and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) were found to adhere to the brush border of differentiated human intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells in culture, whereas Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Listeria monocytogenes adhered to the periphery of undifferentiated Caco-2 cells. All these enterovirulent strains invaded the Caco-2 cells. Using a heat-killed human Lactobacillus acidophilus (strain LB) which strongly adheres both to undifferentiated and differentiated Caco-2 cells, we have studied inhibition of cell association with and invasion within Caco-2 cells by enterovirulent bacteria. Living and heat-killed Lactobacillus acidophilus strain LB inhibited both cell association and invasion of Caco-2 cells by enterovirulent bacteria in a concentration-dependent manner. The mechanism of inhibition of both adhesion and invasion appears to be due to steric hindrance of human enterocytic pathogen receptors by whole-cell lactobacilli rather than to a specific blockade of receptors. 相似文献

The randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique was employed in the development of a typing protocol for Listeria isolates, particularly Listeria monocytogenes strains. A single strain of L. monocytogenes was used and 200 random decamer primers were screened for their discriminatory abilities by visualizing the amplification products electrophoretically. Three candidate primers displaying potentially useful banding patterns were selected and tested against 52 L. monocytogenes strains, encompassing 11 serotypes, and 12 other strains representing five other Listeria spp. Thirty-four banding profiles were obtained with one particular primer. RAPD analysis allowed differentiation between Listeria spp. and was found to further subdivide strains of the same serotype. Where only one primer was used strains from different serotypes were occasionally found to produce identical banding profiles. RAPD analysis, which in our hands proved to be reproducible, shows much promise as a molecular alternative to traditional L. monocytogenes typing protocols. 相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes is able to survive and proliferate within macrophages. In the current study, the ability of three L. monocytogenes strains (serovar 1/2a strain EGDe, serovar 4b strain F2365, and serovar 4a strain HCC23) to proliferate in the murine macrophage cell line J774.1 was analyzed. We found that the avirulent strain HCC23 was able to initiate an infection but could not establish prolonged infection within the macrophages. By contrast, strains EGDe and F2365 proliferated within macrophages for at least 7 h. We further analyzed these strains by comparing their protein expression profiles at 0 h, 3 h, and 5 h post-infection using multidimensional protein identification technology coupled with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. Our results indicated that similar metabolic and cell wall associated proteins were expressed by all three strains at 3 h post-infection. However, increased expression of stress response and DNA repair proteins was associated with the ability to proliferate in macrophages at 5 h post-infection. By comparing the protein expression patterns of these three L. monocytogenes strains during intracellular growth in macrophages, we were able to detect biological differences that may determine the ability of L. monocytogenes to survive in macrophages. 相似文献

Lactobacillus reuteri is one of the dominant lactobacilli found in the gastrointestinal tract of various animals. A surface protein of L. reuteri 104R, mucus adhesion promoting protein (MapA), is considered to be an adhesion factor of this strain. We investigated the relation between MapA and adhesion of L. reuteri to human intestinal (Caco-2) cells. Quantitative analysis of the adhesion of L. reuteri strains to Caco-2 cells showed that various L. reuteri strains bind not only to mucus but also to intestinal epithelial cells. In addition, purified MapA bound to Caco-2 cells, and this binding inhibited the adhesion of L. reuteri in a concentration-dependent manner. Based on these observations, the adhesion of L. reuteri appears due to the binding of MapA to receptor-like molecules on Caco-2 cells. Further, far-western analysis indicated the existence of multiple receptor-like molecules in Caco-2 cells. 相似文献

AIMS: To investigate the prevalence of Aeromonas in a major waterway in South East Queensland, Australia, and their interactions with a gut epithelial model using Caco-2 cells. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 81 Aeromonas isolates, collected from a major waterway in South East Queensland, Australia, were typed using a metabolic fingerprinting method, and tested for their adhesion to HEp-2 and Caco-2 cells and for cytotoxin production on Vero cells and Caco-2 cells. Aeromonas hydrophila had the highest (43%) and Aeromonas veronii biovar sobria had the lowest (25%) prevalence. Four patterns of adhesion were observed on both HEp-2 and Caco-2 cell lines. Representative isolates having different phenopathotypes (nine strains) together with two clinical isolates were tested for their translocation ability and for the presence of virulence genes associated with pathogenic Escherichia coli. The rate and degree of translocation across Caco-2 monolayers varied among strains and was more pronounced with LogA pattern. Translocation was associated with the adherence of strains to Caco-2 cells microvilli, followed by internalization into Caco-2 cells. Two Aer. veronii biovar sobria strains were positive for the presence of heat-labile toxin genes, with one strain also positive for Shiga-like toxin gene. CONCLUSIONS: Pathogenic strains of Aeromonas carrying one or more virulence characteristics are highly prevalent in the waterways studied and are capable of translocating across a human enterocyte cell model. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This study indicates that Aeromonas strains carrying one or more virulence properties are prevalent in local waterways and are capable of translocating in a human enterocyte cell culture model. However, their importance in human gastrointestinal disease has yet to be verified under competitive conditions of the gut. 相似文献

Aim: To evaluate the physicochemical cell surface and adhesive properties of selected probiotic strains for human use.
Methods and Results: Probiotic strains, Bifidobacterium longum B6, Lactobacillus acidophilus ADH, Lactobacillus paracasei , Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Lactobacillus brevis , Lactobacillus casei , Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Pediococcus acidilactici were tested for the physicochemical properties of cell surfaces and the adhesion abilities against foodborne pathogens. Bif . longum B6 (53·6%) and Lact . rhamnosus GG (46·5%) showed the highest hydrophobicity, while the least affinity to xylene was observed in Ped . acidilactici (10·4%). Bifidobacterium longum B6 showed the strongest coaggregation phenotype with Listeria monocytogenes (53·0%), Shigella boydii (42·0%) and Staphylococcus aureus (45·9%). Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG had the strong binding ability to Caco-2 cells and effectively inhibited the adhesion of L . monocytogenes , Salmonella Typhimurium, Sh . boydii and Staph . aureus to Caco-2 cells. The hydrophobicity was highly correlated with coaggregative abilities and competitive inhibition, suggesting a good relationship between in vitro adhesion and in vivo colonization.
Conclusion: The results suggest that Bif . longum B6 and Lact . rhamnosus GG can be candidate probiotics available for human consumption.
Significance and Impact of the Study: Because the use of probiotic strains has been more concerned with their beneficial effects in the GI tract, it is essential to examine the potential of probiotic strains based on the physicochemical properties in terms of bacterial-binding and adhesion capabilities. 相似文献
