Association of complement sensitivity with virulence of Pasteurella multocida isolated from turkeys 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Two strains of Pasteurella multocida, both derivatives of strain P1059, were compared for virulence for 14-week-old turkeys and sensitivity to turkey plasma. Strain P1059-1, a nalidixic-acid-resistant mutant of P1059 with an LD50 of approximately 10(3) colony-forming units (CFU), was more resistant to the bactericidal effects of fresh turkey plasma at 37 C than avirulent strain P1059-1A. P1059-1A, with an LD50 of approximately 10(8) CFU, is an acapsular variant of P1059-1 that spontaneously arose after prolonged passage on artificial medium. The bactericidal effect on P1059-1A was removed when turkey plasma was treated with heat or with zymosan, maneuvers that removed hemolytic complement activity from turkey plasma. 相似文献

To clarify the role of avian Pasteurella multocida capsule in pathogenesis, adhesion of capsulated strains P-1059, X-73 and Pm-18, and noncapsulated strains P-1059B, Pm-1 and Pm-3 to chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells was compared. Number of adherent organisms of the capsulated strains to CEF cells were approximately three times as much as noncapsulated strains indicating that adhesive properties were enhanced by the presence of bacterial capsule. Pretreatments of the bacterial cells with heat, trypsin, or with antiserum caused a marked decrease in adhesion of capsulated strain P-1059 and its noncapsulated variant P-1059B. However, depolymerization of capsular hyaluronic acid with high dose of hyaluronidase enhanced adhesion of these strains. Combined treatments of the bacterial cells with both hyaluronidase and trypsin significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited the adherence of strain P-1059 as compared to the treatment only with trypsin, but strain P-1059B was not affected. SDS-PAGE profiles of crude capsular extract (CCE) prepared from capsulated strain P-1059 and its noncapsulated variant P-1059B grown on dextrose starch agar (DSA) plates by heating at 56 degrees C in a 2.5% NaCl solution demonstrated eight protein bands of 28, 34, 36, 39, 52, 56, 63 and 93 kDa. The 28, 34 and 36 kDa proteins were commonly major for both strains, and the 39 kDa protein was major only for strain P-1059 but poor in strain P-1059B. Outer membrane protein (OMP) profiles were identical with a major protein at 34 kDa and four minor proteins between the two strains. The adhesion of strain P-1059 and strain P-1059B to CEF cells was inhibited significantly (P < 0.01) by treatment with rabbit antisera against P-1059, P-1059B, CCE or 39 kDa protein of strain P-1059 as compared to the treatment with either PBS or with normal rabbit serum. These results indicated that an antigenic 39 kDa protein in the capsule may be responsible for adhesion of avian P. multocida type A strains to CEF cells as a virulence factor. 相似文献

In this study, an unencapsulated Streptococcus suis mutant was used to investigate the pleiotropic effects resulting from capsule loss. The capsule deficient mutant of S. suis acquired a biofilm-positive phenotype, which was associated with significantly increased cell surface hydrophobicity. Cell-associated fibrinogen-binding and chymotrypsin-like activities were decreased in the unencapsulated mutant. The mutant did not differ significantly from the encapsulated parent strain for minimal inhibitory concentrations to penicillin G, ampicillin, and tetracycline. However, while the encapsulated strain was highly resistant to the bactericidal action of penicillin G and ampicillin, the unencapsulated mutant was approximately 60-fold more sensitive. Compared with the parent strain, the unencapsulated mutant induced a much higher inflammatory response in monocyte-derived macrophages resulting in an increased secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and IL-8. The capsule appears to hinder important adhesins or hydrophobic molecules that mediate biofilm formation, as well as cell wall components capable of stimulating immune cells. 相似文献

Turkey macrophage and heterophil bactericidal activity against Pasteurella multocida. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Bactericidal activity of turkey macrophages and heterophils was demonstrated in an in vitro colorimetric bactericidal assay. Two vaccine strains and one field isolate of Pasteurella multocida A:3,4 and a single isolate each of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were compared for susceptibility to the bactericidal activity of turkey macrophages and heterophils. Only P. multocida A:3,4-strain M-9 (the least virulent strain) was susceptible to macrophage bactericidal activity in the absence of specific immune serum, whereas all three P. multocida A:3,4 organisms were killed when opsonized with specific immune serum. E. coli was susceptible to the bactericidal activity of macrophages, and S. aureus was resistant. All bacteria tested were highly sensitive to the bactericidal activity of intact turkey heterophils, regardless of the opsonin treatment. Electron microscopic findings suggested that heterophils may kill extracellular P. multocida. Only S. aureus and E. coli were killed by lysed heterophils. 相似文献

Capsule thickness of avian Pasteurella multocida type A strains was determined by transmission electron microscopy after labeling with polycationic ferritin and compared with their pathogenicity for chickens. The capsule thickness of P. multocida strains Pm-18 and X-73 was 81.4 and 50.1 nm on average, respectively. These strains were highly virulent for chicken, whereas the less virulent strains Pm-1 and Pm-3 had a thin and irregular capsule, 21.0 and 29.8 nm on average, respectively. However, the thickest capsule was observed in strain P-1059, 101.2 nm on average, and the strain revealed moderate virulence. The noncapsulated variant P-1059B, which was derived from strain P-1059, revealed low virulence. The six P. multocida strains were examined with regard to protein content on the capsule of organisms. Amounts of total proteins of crude capsular extract (CCE) from capsulated strains were approximately twice those of the noncapsulated strains. The amount of an antigenic 39 kDa protein in the CCE were found to correlate with the capsule thickness, since heavily capsulated strains exhibited the greatest amount, whereas noncapsulated strains including noncapsulated and low virulent variant P-1059B possessed little 39 kDa protein. The results demonstrated that the capsule thickness and the quantity of a 39 kDa capsular protein of avian P. multocida type A strains correlated with their pathogenicity for chickens. 相似文献

The outer membrane protein (OMP) profiles of two strains of capsular type A Pasteurella multocida isolated from the lungs of pigs with enzootic pneumonia were studied. Sarkosyl extracted OMPs from P. multocida grown under iron-restricted and iron-replete conditions were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blot analysis. Results showed that the iron-regulated outer membrane proteins (IROMPs) with molecular masses of 74 kDa, 94 kDa, 99 kDa and 109 kDa were expressed by strain A52, while 74 kDa, 82 kDa, 94 kDa and 99 kDa IROMPs were expressed by strain B80. Swine immune sera, obtained from pigs which were first immunized with a polyvalent P. multocida type A and type D bacterin and subsequently challenged with type A strain of P. multocida, contained antibodies against the IROMPs. These antibodies cross-reacted with the IROMPs expressed by avian strain P1059 of P. multocida. Convalescent-phase serum obtained from turkeys which survived fowl cholera, also cross-reacted with the IROMPs from porcine strains of P. multocida. These results suggested that IROMPs from porcine and avian strains of P. multocida may share common epitopes that were recognized by swine immune serum as well as turkey convalescent-phase serum. 相似文献

The role of a 39kDa protein of avian Pasteurella multocida in pathogenesis of fowl cholera was investigated using monoclonal antibodies (Mabs). Mabs were prepared by immunization of BALB/c mice with a crude capsular extract (CCE) of P. multocida strain P-1059 (serovar A:3). Totally eight hybridomas producing Mab were obtained. Immunoblot analysis of the hybridomas revealed that all the Mabs recognized a 39kDa protein of CCE. Treatment of CCE antigen with proteinase K or periodic acid indicated that the epitope recognized was proteinaceous. The Mabs reacted with a major 39kDa protein of CCE from encapsulated strains but not with any protein of non-capsulated strains indicating that a direct correlation between encapsulation and the 39kDa protein. Immunoelectron microscopy on strain P-1059 and the non-capsulated derivative P-1059B (serovar -:3) reacting with the Mabs and gold-labeled anti-mouse IgG indicated that the protein is associated with the capsule. The Mabs significantly inhibited the adherence of encapsulated P. multocida strains to chicken embryo fibroblast cells, but only slightly that of non-capsulated strains. Mice passively immunized with the Mabs were protected from lethal challenge with virulent strains P-1059 and X-73 (serovar A:1). Thus the capsular 39kDa protein was determined to be an adherence factor and a cross-protective antigen of avian P. multocida type A strains. 相似文献

The role of the capsule in the pathogenesis of fowl cholera was studied in turkeys. Avian Pasteurella multocida P-1059 was used in an encapsulated form, an enzymatically decapsulated form, and a mutant form lacking capsule-productivity (strain T-325). These forms were inoculated intravenously into normal or immune turkeys, and the numbers of viable bacteria in the blood, liver, and spleen were enumerated over a 120-minute period. Both normal and immune birds rapidly removed all three forms of organisms from the blood-stream at similar rates and trapped in the liver and spleen. In the liver of normal birds, the non-encapsulated mutant T-325 was readily inactivated, but the encapsulated P-1059 strain was not. When the decapsulated form of P-1059 was used, the bacterial counts in the liver temporarily decreased at 60 minutes PI. In immune birds, all three forms of organisms were equally inactivated in the liver. In the spleen, however, the bacterial numbers did not change throughout 120 minutes PI with all three forms of organisms in both normal and immune turkeys. The results indicated that the blood-borne P. multocida were readily trapped by reticuloendothelial phagocytes. The trapping process was not affected by encapsulation of the organism or by the immune status of turkey. Both factors, however, appeared to greatly influence the subsequent killing of P. multocida by hepatic, but not splenic, phagocytes. 相似文献

Characterization of outer membrane protein-enriched extracts from Pasteurella multocida isolated from turkeys 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Outer membrane protein (OMP)-enriched extracts of avian strains of Pasteurella multocida were examined by use of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Culture medium did not have a significant effect on the OMP profiles of strains of P multocida examined; however, in vivo propagation had an appreciable effect on the OMP profile composition of the reference strain P-1059. Such bacteria, expressed several additional OMP in the 27-kD, 48-kD, 56-kD, 60-kD, 80-kD, and 94-kD molecular mass regions. These OMP were not detected in the electrophorogram of strain P-1059 grown in vitro. The OMP profiles of reference strains of the 16 serotypes of P multocida did not identify any serotype-specific protein markers. Field strains of serotype A:3 had variation in OMP profiles and did not express OMP that all were identical to that expressed by the reference strain P-1059. The live attenuated CU and M9 bacterial vaccine strains expressed strain-specific OMP markers of 48-kD and 45-kD molecular masses, respectively. These strain-specific OMP markers may be used to differentiate these strains from virulent field strains that are of the same serotype and isolated from turkeys that have succumbed to pasteurellosis as a result of vaccine-related reactions or breakdown in immunity. 相似文献

Pasteurella multocida exhibits nonspecific susceptibility to nonpolar antimicrobial agents such as triclosan, despite possessing an ultrastructurally typical gram-negative cell envelope. Capsulated and noncapsulated cell surface variants were examined to investigate the role outer membrane permeability plays in triclosan susceptibility. Test strains were unable to initiate growth in the presence of bile salts and were susceptible to triclosan with minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) ranging from 0.06 to 0.25 microg/ml. Disk agar diffusion bioassays revealed triclosan susceptibility to be dose dependent and all strains were susceptible to the hydrophobic antibiotics novobiocin, rifamycin SV, and chloramphenicol. Triclosan minimal bactericidal concentrations were greater than MICs, thereby suggesting that dose dependency reflected both bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects. Total and viable cell density growth kinetic determinations revealed a triclosan concentration of 2.0 microg/ml resulted in loss of batch culture viability within 4-24 h. Concentrations of 0.02 and 0.2 microg/ml exerted either a bacteriostatic or bactericidal effect depending on the strain. Uptake of the hydrophobic probe 1-N-phenylnaphthylamine was greater in P. multocida strains than refractory control organisms Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli thereby suggesting the presence of phospholipid bilayer regions in the outer membrane. Because triclosan inhibits a conserved enoyl-ACP reductase necessary for bacterial fatty acid biosynthesis, these data support the notion that extreme susceptibility in P. multocida is due to the general inability of the outer membrane to exclude nonpolar compounds. Moreover, susceptibility is independent of the presence of capsular material and the biocide is bactericidal in a concentration dependent manner. 相似文献

The role of turkey complement in a serum bactericidal reaction was determined using serum-sensitive and serum-resistant Escherichia coli isolated from turkeys. Inactivation of complement by heating serum (56 C for 40 minutes) or by treating serum with 10 mM EDTA eliminated bactericidal activity. Serum-sensitive E coli organisms were killed by turkey serum treated with 10 mM ethylene glycol-bis-beta-(aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid and 5 mM MgCl2. Exposure of normal turkey serum to serum-sensitive or serum-resistant E coli resulted in equivalent reductions in hemolytic activity of serum. Treatment of serum-resistant E coli with antibody rendered the bacteria sensitive to bactericidal effects of normal turkey serum. Serum-sensitive E coli organisms were readily killed by an alternative complement pathway, serum-sensitive and serum-resistant E coli activated the complement system equally well, and antibody was required for complement-mediated killing of certain serum-resistant E coli organisms from turkeys. 相似文献

The interactions of 2 capsular serotype A and 4 serotype D strains of Pasteurella multocida with rabbit polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) were compared in vitro, using a PMN phagocytic and bactericidal assay. Bacteria and rabbit PMN were incubated for 15 minutes. The suspensions were subjected to differential centrifugation and the percentage of phagocytosis (cell association) was determined from the number of viable noncell-associated bacteria. The cell pellets and the associated bacteria were resuspended and PMN bactericidal activity was calculated from the number of remaining viable cell-associated bacteria at 45 and 75 minutes after the start of the assay. Test bacteria were not opsonized or were opsonized with immune serum containing active complement. One type A strain was ingested and killed by PMN in the presence and absence of opsonins. The 5 remaining strains were resistant to PMN killing, but only the type A strain resisted phagocytosis. Resistance of the type A strain was attributed to the hyaluronic acid capsule, since pretreatment of the bacteria with hyaluronidase rendered opsonized bacteria susceptible to ingestion and killing. The pattern of resistance of the 4 type D strains was different from that of the resistant type A strain. Both opsonized and nonopsonized type D bacteria became cell associated, but none were killed by PMN. The mechanism of resistance of these 4 strains to PMN bactericidal activity is currently unknown. 相似文献

A mutant strain, PBA322, was constructed by electroporation of a phagemid containing the coding region of antisense RNA of the ompH gene, encoding 39 kDa capsular protein or OmpH, into the parental strain P-1059 (serovar A:3) of Pasteurella multocida, and the pathogenicity was determined in mice and chickens. Grayish colonies of the mutant, indicating loss of capsule synthesis, were observed under a stereomicroscope using obliquely transmitted light, while iridescent colonies were observed for the parental strain. Moreover, strain PBA322 showed a low amount of OmpH compared with the parental strain on SDS-PAGE. Additionally, the capsule of strain PBA322 was thinner than that of the parental strain according to electron microscopy, correlating to the attenuation against chickens. In conclusion, strain PBA322, the mutant of P. multocida strain P-1059, was completely attenuated for chickens. 相似文献

Rabbit pasteurellosis: induced disease and vaccination 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pasteurellosis was induced in rabbits by conjunctival inoculation with 2 strains of Pasteurella multocida. The LD50 of strain P1062 (a bovine isolate) was 10(5.1) colony-forming units and that of strain P1059 (a turkey isolate) was 10(5.5) colony-forming units. Pasteurella-free rabbits were vaccinated IV or mucosally with boiled cells of P multocida or a cross-reactive uridine diphosphogalactose epimerase-deficient mutant of Escherichia coli J5. In rabbits challenge exposed with P multocida strain 1062 or 1059, homologous P multocida strain gave the best protection against fatal bacteremia. Partial protection was provided by J5; mucosal routes of vaccination (aerosol or conjunctival) gave better protection than did the IV route. Serum antibody titers were lower in rabbits vaccinated by mucosal routes than in those vaccinated IV. Cross-reactive IgG and IgM titers to P multocida were demonstrated when rabbits were vaccinated with J5. On the basis of bacteriologic examination of nasal secretions, rabbits that died were considered culture positive sooner than were those that survived. On the basis of bacteriologic examination of blood, rabbits that died were considered culture positive, and those that survived were considered culture negative. Seemingly, heat-stable antigens were protective, the cross-reactive E coli J5 mutant (with only core lipopolysaccharide) provided partial protection against pasteurellosis, and the mucosal route was somewhat useful for cross-protective immunization. 相似文献

A set of microassays separately measuring attachment, ingestion, and overall killing of Escherichia coli by bovine granulocytes was devised and its analytical potential used to test the effect of drugs which block intracellular killing: sodium azide, phenylbutazone, chloroquine phosphate were all inactive, suggesting that O2-dependent systems were not the sole pathway involved in the killing of E.coli by granulocytes. The microtechniques were also used to investigate the opsonic requirements for phagocytosis of two E.coli strains. Absorption of normal bovine serum with the homologous and the heterologous strains showed that specific antibodies were necessary to induce attachment of bacteria to phagocytes. Once bound to granulocytes, the unencapsulated strain P4 was engulfed, whereas for the encapsulated strain B117, complement was required for the internalization step of phagocytosis. With immune serum the need for complement was not absolute. 相似文献

The susceptibility of two highly virulent (VP161 and VP138) and two less virulent (VP17 and VP21) strains of Pasteurella multocida to phagocytic uptake and killing by chicken macrophages was compared using in vitro phagocytosis and bactericidal assays. When compared with VP17 and VP21, particularly after they were preopsonised with specific immune serum, VP161 and VP138 were more resistant to phagocytosis by chicken macrophages. The uptake of these bacteria increased following the removal of the bacterial capsules with hyaluronidase. All strains preopsonised with specific immune serum were killed to some extent by chicken macrophages. However, the percentages of killing for VP17 and VP21 were higher than those of VP161 and VP138. When the capsules of VP161 and VP138 were removed, the susceptibility of the bacteria to bactericidal activity of chicken macrophages increased. It can be concluded that the virulent strains of P. multocida were more resistant to phagocytosis and phagocytic killing by chicken macrophages compared with the less virulent strains. The hyaluronic acid capsule was considered to be important in the resistance, but might not be the only factor contributing to the resistance since the less virulent strains of P. multocida also possess capsules. 相似文献

Two strains of capsular serogroup B Pasteurella multocida isolated from avian hosts (swan and turkey) were evaluated for virulence based on lethality for turkey poults. Groups of poults were exposed intramuscularly to various concentrations of organisms of each strain. Both strains were virulent. The strain isolated from a turkey was highly virulent: all exposed poults died in less than 24 hours, including those exposed to only 79 organisms. This highly virulent strain was neither highly invasive nor highly infective: intrapharyngeal exposure with 7.9 x 10(6) organisms resulted in death of only one of five poults, and attempts to isolate the organism from pharyngeal mucosae and livers of surviving poults were unsuccessful. The high degree of virulence of a B capsular group strain isolated from a turkey indicates a disease-producing potential for members of this uncommon serogroup of P. multocida. 相似文献

Chlamydia psittaci of avian and mammalian origin were grown in McCoy and Vero cells in the presence of cytochalasin B with cortisone acetate. Six turkey strains, one parrot strain, one human strain, one ovine strain and one bovine strain were used in this study. All strains, except the turkey strain NJ-1, grew to higher titers in Vero cells than in McCoy cells. Five of the six turkey strains could be grouped together because they induced cytopathic changes rapidly. The other turkey strain, along with the parrot, human and ovine strain, induced cytopathic changes more slowly and the bovine strain failed to cause cytopathic changes, but it did replicate in the cell culture system. 相似文献

Restriction endonuclease analysis (REA) of whole-cell DNA was used to determine possible sources of Pasteurella multocida for each outbreak of fowl cholera occurring in turkey flocks in eight commercial poultry companies in California from October 1988 to September 1989. Over this period, 179 isolates of P. multocida were obtained from dead turkeys in 80 meat and breeder flocks on 43 premises. P. multocida was isolated from wildlife on five premises. Isolates were characterized by subspecies, serotype, presence of plasmid DNA, and REA type. In 52 (65%) flocks, all isolates of P. multocida had the same REA pattern as the M9 live vaccine strain following digestion of DNA with the restriction enzyme SmaI. Field strains of P. multocida were obtained from 27 (34%) flocks, and one flock (1%) yielded both M9 and a field strain of the organism. REA of field strains of P. multocida revealed 17 different SmaI REA types. Based on matching SmaI REA types, potential sources of P. multocida were identified for 15 of the 28 flocks infected with field strains of the organism, and transmission between turkey premises was a possibility in only seven flocks. 相似文献

Resistance of Pasteurella multocida A:3,4 to phagocytosis by turkey macrophages and heterophils 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A virulent field isolate and 2 vaccine strains of Pasteurella multocida A:3,4 were compared for resistance to phagocytosis by turkey macrophages and heterophils, using in vitro assays. The least virulent vaccine strain (M-9) was phagocytosed to a greater degree than was the field isolate or the other vaccine strain (Clemson University). All 3 bacteria differed significantly from each other in the amount of capsular material present as measured by polycationic ferritin labeling and electron microscopy. Removal of the capsule with hyaluronidase resulted in a significant increase in phagocytosis of the field isolate. 相似文献
