The effect of hen-egg antibodies on Clostridium perfringens colonization in the gastrointestinal tract of broiler chickens

We evaluated the ability of hen-egg antibodies (HEA) to reduce intestinal colonization by Clostridium perfringens in broiler chickens. Antibodies against C. perfringens or cholera toxin (negative control) were obtained from the eggs of laying hens hyperimmunized using a C. perfringens bacterin or cholera toxin. Eggs were collected, pooled, and egg antibodies were concentrated by polyethylene-glycol precipitation. An initial experiment was conducted to determine the in vivo activity of the administered antibody along the length of the intestine. Thereafter, two feeding trials were performed to assess the efficacy of feed amended with the egg antibodies in reducing the level of colonization of C. perfringens in challenged birds. Antibody activity declined from proximal to distal regions of the intestine but remained detectable in the cecum. In the first experiment there was no significant reduction in the number of C. perfringens in the birds fed the diet amended with the anti-C. perfringens egg antibody, compared to the birds that received the anti-cholera toxin egg antibody (n = 10), at any of the sampling times. In the second experiment there was a significant decrease in C. perfringens intestinal populations 72 h after treatment (n = 15) as assessed by culture-based enumeration, but there was no decrease as measured by quantitative PCR based on the C. perfringens phospholipase C gene. Intestinal-lesion scores were higher in the birds that received the anti-C. perfringens HEA. Our work suggests that administration of HEA did not reduce the level of C. perfringens intestinal colonization and conversely might exacerbate necrotic enteritis.     

动物源产气荚膜梭菌耐药性研究进展

细菌耐药性是21世纪人类面临的重大公共卫生安全问题之一。产气荚膜梭菌作为一种重要的人兽共患病原菌，能引起人和动物食物中毒、气性坏疽、坏死性肠炎等多种疾病。随着临床抗菌药物的广泛使用，其耐药性也在不断发展，严重威胁着公共卫生安全和养殖业的健康发展。本文将从产气荚膜梭菌近十年来的耐药性流行情况、耐药机制及耐药基因传播机制两个方面进行归纳总结，旨在为产气荚膜梭菌耐药性的防控提供理论依据。     

关中奶山羊源D型产气荚膜梭菌全基因组序列测定及其分子特征分析

本研究自陕西省富平县某规模化关中奶山羊养殖场腹泻奶山羊肛门拭子中分离到5株产气荚膜梭菌,命名为21-D-1~21-D-5。毒素基因检测表明,其均为携带etx的D型产气荚膜梭菌,且21-D-5携带食源性致病毒素基因cpe。全基因组序列测定显示,5株D型产气荚膜梭菌基因组大小、GC含量和基因数量稳定;单核苷酸多态性（SNPs）分析显示,21-D-1和21-D-2以及21-D-3和21-D-4之间的SNPs差异极低（<25）,表明其大概率属于相同的产气荚膜梭菌菌株。分离的D型产气荚膜梭菌基因组中共检测到15种毒素基因,其中,毒素基因etx在分离的D型菌株中高度保守、基因环境相似,且在菌株21-D-5中毒素基因cpe位于etx下游。此外,包括噁唑烷酮类耐药基因optrA在内的9种耐药基因也在分离株中被检测到,并且erm（A）、optrA和fexA具有共同传播的可能性。本研究为国内首次对D型产气荚膜梭菌进行全基因组序列测定分析,结果对产气荚膜梭菌疾病的防治和基因组的进一步研究具有参考价值。     

C型产气荚膜梭菌外毒素致小鼠肠道损伤的转录组分析

旨在探索产气荚膜梭菌外毒素造成机体炎性损伤及免疫调控紊乱的毒性机制,为产气荚膜梭菌病的致病机理研究提供理论基础。将C型产气荚膜梭菌强毒株C59-2培养上清腹腔注射BALB/c小鼠,采集小肠样本进行转录组测序,筛选差异表达基因,并对其进行GO功能注释和KEGG通路富集分析。结果显示,共获得40.99 Gb有效碱基,筛选后共得到795个差异表达基因,其中,229个基因表达上调,566个基因表达下调,对随机选取的10个基因进行q-PCR验证,其相对表达量与转录表达谱一致。GO功能注释主要涉及G蛋白偶联核苷酸受体活性和G蛋白偶联嘌呤核苷酸受体活性等。KEGG通路富集分析发现,主要富集在TNF信号通路、IL-17信号通路、p53信号通路、FOXO信号通路、Toll样受体信号通路、NF-κB信号通路等。产气荚膜梭菌外泌毒素侵入机体,会激活TNF等炎性信号通路,进而造成肠道发生炎性损伤甚至坏死。     

发酵乳杆菌和凝结芽孢杆菌对产气荚膜梭菌感染肉鸡生长性能和肠道健康的影响

试验以产气荚膜梭菌感染肉仔鸡建立坏死性肠炎模型,研究发酵乳杆菌和凝结芽孢杆菌对感染肉鸡生长性能和肠道健康的影响。将336只1日龄爱拔益加肉仔鸡随机分成4个处理组,每个处理6个重复。4个处理组分别为对照组、感染组、感染＋LF组（日粮添加1×10⁹ CFU/kg发酵乳杆菌）、感染＋BC组（日粮添加1×10¹⁰ CFU/kg凝结芽孢杆菌）。所有感染肉鸡在14~21 d经口接种A型产气荚膜梭菌。试验期为28 d。结果显示：与对照组相比,灌服产气荚膜梭菌显著降低22~28 d肉鸡的日均采食量（P<0.05）,显著增加28 d十二指肠和空肠损伤评分（P<0.05）,显著提高21 d肉鸡盲肠的产气荚膜梭菌和大肠杆菌数量,显著降低28 d回肠产气荚膜梭菌数量（P<0.05）。与感染组相比,日粮添加发酵乳杆菌显著提高21 d肉鸡回肠的乳杆菌属数量（P<0.05）,显著降低21 d盲肠大肠杆菌的数量（P<0.05）;日粮添加凝结芽孢杆菌显著降低28 d肉鸡十二指肠损伤评分（P<0.05）,显著降低21 d十二指肠隐窝深度（P<0.05）,显著提高21 d空肠绒毛高度与隐窝深度的比值（P<0.05）,显著降低21 d肉鸡回肠和盲肠的大肠杆菌数量（P<0.05）,显著提高28 d肉鸡回肠乳杆菌属数量（P<0.05）。综上所述,日粮中添加发酵乳杆菌或凝结芽孢杆菌均对感染肉鸡的肠道微生物具有调控作用;其中添加凝结芽孢杆菌有利于肠道绒毛发育,缓解肠道损伤,一定程度上提高了肉鸡的生长性能,而发酵乳杆菌没有缓解肠道损伤的作用。     

重组产气荚膜梭菌β毒素突变体的表达与免疫保护性分析

旨在获得产气荚膜梭菌β毒素（CPB）的重组突变体,并评价其毒力及免疫保护性。对已知的产气荚膜梭菌CPB编码基因进行优化设计,同时引入4个氨基酸突变位点,分别是第212位的精氨酸突变为谷氨酸,第268位的亮氨酸突变为甘氨酸,266位的酪氨酸和275位的色氨酸突变为丙氨酸。此外,在该基因5'端添加Th细胞表位（T）和鞭毛蛋白（flagellin）N末端的编码序列,经人工合成获得重组基因片段（GTF_NCPB_m4）。将GTF_NCPB_m4克隆至原核表达载体pET-30a（＋）中进行表达与纯化,获得重组蛋白rTF_NCPB_m4。利用Western blot方法检测rTF_NCPB_m4与C型产气荚膜梭菌毒素抗血清的反应性,并检测rTF_NCPB_m4对小鼠的毒力。随后,以rTF_NCPB_m4免疫家兔,按照《中华人民共和国兽药典》（2015年版）规定的方法检测家兔血清对C型产气荚膜梭菌毒素的中和抗体效价。结果表明,rTF_NCPB_m4主要以包涵体的形式表达且能与C型产气荚膜梭菌毒素抗血清反应。小鼠安全性试验显示,50 μg的rTF_NCPB_m4对小鼠仍无致死性;免疫rTF_NCPB_m4后,每毫升家兔二免抗血清可中和10~20个小鼠最小致死量（MLD）的C型产气荚膜梭菌毒素;1个家兔MLD的C型产气荚膜梭菌毒素攻毒后,对照组家兔4/4死亡,免疫组家兔得到了100%（4/4）的保护。以上结果说明,rTF_NCPB_m4在丧失毒力的同时保留了良好的免疫原性,从而为C型产气荚膜梭菌病基因工程疫苗的研制提供了重要的数据。     

Expression and Protective Efficacy of Clostridium perfringens β toxin Derivative

This study was conducted to obtain the Clostridium perfringens β toxin (CPB) derivative and to evaluate its virulence and immunoprotection. Based on the known sequence, four amino acid mutations, R212E, L268G, Y266A and W275A, were introduced into the gene of Clostridium perfringens CPB. Meanwhile, genes of Th cell and N-terminal of flagellin were added to 5' of the CPB gene, respectively. Then the gene GTF_NCPB_m4 was optimized and synthesized, and was subsequently cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-30a (＋) for expression and purification to get the recombinant protein, rTF_NCPB_m4. Reactivity of rTF_NCPB_m4with antiserum of Clostridium perfringens type C crude toxins was detected by Western blot. Meanwhile, the toxicity of rTF_NCPB_m4 to mice was evaluated. According to the method prescribed in Chinese Veterinary Pharmacopoeia (2015), rabbits were immunized with rTF_NCPB_m4 to prepare antiserum and detect the neutralizing titer against Clostridium perfringens type C crude toxins. Results showed that rTF_NCPB_m4 was presented predominantly in an insoluble form (inclusion bodies), and it could react with the antiserum of Clostridium perfringens type C crude toxins. rTF_NCPB_m4 with an injection volume of 50 μg was still not fatal to mice. Sera from rabbits immunized with rTF_NCPB_m4can neutralize 10-20 mouse minimum lethal doses (MLD) of Clostridium perfringens type C crude toxins after twice immunization. Moreover, rabbits immunized with rTF_NCPB_m4 can fully resist 1 rabbit MLD of Clostridium perfringens type C crude toxins challenge, whereas all of the rabbits died (4/4) in the control groups. These data suggest that rTF_NCPB_m4 is a potential vaccine candidate for the subunit vaccine of Clostridium perfringens type C.     

Isolation,Identification and Pathogenicity Research of a Strain of Clostridium perfringens from Goat

A pathogenic bacteria was isolated from a dead goat,and it was identified as goat-pathogenic type A Clostridium perfringens by differential culture,biochemical test,molecular biological technology and animal pathogenicity test.Analysis results of toxin genes showed that this bacteria contained both α and β2 toxin genes.Animal pathogenicity test result showed that this bacteria was highly pathogenic to mice,and the same bacteria was isolated from dead mice as which was isolated from the dead goat,so it was certain that type A Clostridium perfringens was the main pathogenic bacteria which caused the goat dead.The results would provide scientific basis for the treatment and prevention of the disease caused by Clostridium perfringens in this goat farm.

C型产气荚膜梭菌实验感染仔猪肠道circRNA的表达特征

circRNAs在病原菌感染宿主的肠道疾病发展中具有重要的调控作用。C型产气荚膜梭菌（C.perfringens type C）是引起仔猪腹泻及相关肠道炎症的主要细菌之一,对产业造成了严重的经济损失。然而,目前有关circRNAs如何调控仔猪C型产气荚膜梭菌性腹泻的全面且系统的研究未见报道。本研究通过RNA高通量测序研究分析了C型产气荚膜梭菌感染的7日龄仔猪回肠组织circRNAs的表达谱,筛选差异表达circRNAs,并进行差异表达基因GO和KEGG功能富集分析,利用miRanda等软件预测circRNA的microRNA靶点,构建circRNA-miRNA-mRNA的互作网络,并进行qPCR验证。结果显示,在C型产气荚膜梭菌感染的处理组（TI组）和对照组（CI组）中共鉴定出3 162个circRNAs,其中差异表达circRNAs有694个,上调表达circRNAs有404个,下调表达circRNAs有290个。功能富集分析结果表明,差异表达circRNAs的亲本基因主要富集在细胞周期、TGF-β信号通路、赖氨酸降解、Wnt信号通路、T细胞受体信号通路、MAPK信号通路等,调节仔猪对产气荚膜梭菌感染的抗性反应。此外,本研究构建了与C型产气荚膜梭菌感染致仔猪腹泻相关的circRNA-miRNA-mRNA互作网络,发现8 circRNAs-5 miRNAs-12 mRNAs组成的ceRNA网络与产气荚膜梭菌感染性疾病密切相关。本试验可为深入研究circRNA调控仔猪C型产气荚膜梭菌性腹泻疾病及猪抗腹泻病品系培育提供参考。     

Cloning,Expression of Clostridium perfringens α-toxin Gene and Preparation of its Antisera

One pair of primers had been designed and synthesized based on the α-toxin gene of Clostridium perfringens.The complete α-toxin gene fragment was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and then was cloned into pGEM-T Easy vector to construct pGEM-T-α.Digested with EcoRⅠ and Hind Ⅲ, a fragment of 1125 bp was cloned into the expression plasmid vector pET-28a(+).The recombinant plasmid was transformed into the BL21(DE3)plys and induced by 1.0 mmol/L IPTG at 37 ℃.The expression product was found to be 46.1 ku as expected one identified by SDS-PAGE, and confirmed by Western blotting with Clostridium perfringens type A antisera, indicating similar reactivity with native α-toxin.Recombinant α-toxin protein was simultaneously found in culture supernatant, postsonic supertanant and inclusion bodies, most protein was expressed in inclusion bodies, which indicated recombinant α-toxin protein was expressed in the extracellular, periplasm and cytoplasm.Recombinant α-toxin protein in postsonic supertanant could not make mice die, indicating its non-toxicity.Toxin-antitoxin neutralization test showed that antisera of recombinant α-toxin protein were specific to α-toxin.Upon immunization of rabbit with the recombinant α-toxin protein, antisera with high antibody titer neutralizing 100 MLD toxin per 1 mL were prepared.     

产气荚膜梭菌α毒素基因的克隆、表达及其抗血清的制备

本试验通过设计并合成1对引物,PCR扩增B型产气荚膜梭菌C58-2株α毒素完整成熟肽序列,并将其插入到pGEM-T Easy载体中,构建克隆载体pGEM-T-α。对克隆载体pGEM-T-α进行EcoRⅠ和Hind Ⅲ的双酶切,将得到的1125 bp片段以正确的阅读框架定向克隆于pET-28a(+)中,然后将重组质粒转化大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)plys宿主菌中,37 ℃、1.0 mmol/L IPTG诱导该片段获得良好表达。经SDS-PAGE分析,其表达的蛋白约为46.1 ku,与预期大小一致。Western blotting结果显示,该重组α毒素蛋白可被A型产气荚膜梭菌定型血清识别,表明该重组α毒素蛋白具备与天然毒素相似的反应原性。重组α毒素蛋白在菌液上清、超声波裂解上清和超声波裂解沉淀中均有分布,且以包涵体表达为主,表明重组α毒素蛋白可同时在胞外、周质和胞浆表达。小鼠毒力试验结果表明,重组α毒素蛋白不具有毒性。毒素—抗毒素中和试验结果表明,该抗血清具有α毒素特异性。以重组α毒素蛋白作为抗原免疫家兔制备血清,效价测定结果表明每1 mL重组α毒素蛋白抗血清可以中和100 MLD的A型毒素。

Detection and characterization of Clostridium species in soil of Zambia

In the retrospective study of soil-borne diseases of cattle in Zambia, malignant edema and blackquarter were widespread. One hundred and sixty-five cases with malignant edema and 103 cases with blackquarter were reported between 1985 and 1997. It was found that specific soil-conditions associate the emergence of the soil-borne diseases. Soil samples from five areas in Zambia were examined for the presence of genus Clostridium. Direct immuno-fluorescent assay (IFA) examination showed that C. septicum, C. novyi and C. chauvoei were detected in the soil of specific areas in Zambia, respectively. Causal organisms such as C. perfringens were isolated from the soil samples. The information of area-specific distribution of Clositridium species may give an efficient program in protecting cattle and man.
