    Notes: Abstract BALB/c and Schofield mice were inoculated with formalin-killed bacteria prepared from strains of Salmonella enteritidis belonging to phage type (PT) 4 and carrying a 38 MDa plasmid and expressing long-chain lipopolysaccharide, or strains without a 38 MDa plasmid or lacking the ability to express lipopolysaccharide. Vaccinated mice were challenged with viable bacteria belonging to a virulent strain of S. enteritidis (PT4). Mice surviving this viable challenge were examined for a humoral antibody response to membrane antigens of S. enteritidi (PT4) that might relate to the possession of a given virulence property. BALB/c mice immunized with any of the test antigens were found to be immune to S. enteritidis (PT4), and this immunity was protective. Serum antibodies, of the IgG class, were detected to OmpA and a minor outer membrane protein (OMP) of 31 kDa. Schofield mice also raised IgG antibodies to these outer membrane proteins; however, non-immunized mice of this strain were resistant to infection. The virulence of S. enteritidis (PT4) was also tested using mice belonging to strains B10D2 (new), Biozzi (high), Biozzi (low), C3HeJ, B10ITYR and C57/L.

    Notes: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was purified from strains of Yersinia enterocolitica belonging to serogroups 03 and 09, by three methods, and analysed by SDS-PAGE and silver staining for carbohydrate. SDS-PAGE of LPS prepared from whole-cells by digestion with proteinase-K, produced profiles containing high molecular mass LPS and a lower molecular mass region migrating as discrete bands. LPS prepared fron strains belonging to serogroup 03, using a hot-phenol procedure alone was found to contain cellular proteins, and LPS prepared from strains of serogroup 09, by this method, did not contain high molecular mass carbohydrate. A novel method of preparing LPS by digesting bacterial outer membranes with proteinase-K prior to hot-phenol extraction produced protein-free LPS from strain of Y. enterocolitica 03 and high molecular mass LPS from strains belonging to serogroup 09.

    Growth of Salmonella enteritidis and S. pullorum on Hektoen agar and the expression of lipopolysaccharide or flagella (1998)

    Notes: Growth of strains of Salmonella enteritidis and Salmonella pullorum on Hektoen agar has been reported to influence the expression of long-chain lipopolysaccharide and motility respectively. In this study we used a panel of strains of S. enteritidis and S. pullorum to investigate these phenomena. Culture on Hektoen agar did not cause rough strains of S. enteritidis to express long-chain lipopolysaccharide or strains of S. pullorum to become motile. It was concluded that growth of strains of S. enteritidis and S. pullorum on Hektoen agar would not normally affect the expression of somatic or flagellar antigens, and would not influence the interpretation of the Kauffman-White typing scheme.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Certain strains of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli express an outer membrane-associated protein, involved with the adhesion of these bacteria to HEp-2 cells. Strains of enteroaggregative E. coli hybridising with DNA probes for aggregative adhesion, diffuse adhesion and aggregative adhesion fimbriae II expressed an outer membrane-associated protein of 18 kDa regulated by magnesium ions. Strains hybridising with the aggregative adhesion probe only expressed a 20-kDa outer membrane-associated protein regulated by calcium and magnesium. The present study describes two populations of enteroaggregative E. coli which appear to adhere to HEp-2 cells by expressing antigenically distinct, negatively charged membrane-associated proteins.

    Magnesium ions are required for HEp-2 cell adhesion by enteroaggregative strains of Escherichia coli O126:H27 and O44:H18 (1997)

    Notes: Enteroaggregative strains of Escherichia coli, belonging to serotypes O44:H18 and O126:H27, were used to show that magnesium ions were essential for the adhesion of these enteroaggregative strains to HEp-2 cells. The removal of Mg2+ ions from culture media was correlated with the inability of strains to produce an outer membrane-associated protein of 18 kDa and a pellicle. It was concluded that magnesium ions were directly involved with the expression of an 18 kDa outer membrane-associated protein by strains of E. coli O126:H27 and O44:H18, and that the outer membrane-associated protein was involved in both HEp-2 adhesion and pellicle formation.

    Virulence of Salmonella enteritidis phage type 4 is related to the possession of a 38 MDa plasmid (1989)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    FEMS microbiology letters 58 (1989), S. 0

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Nine strains of Salmonella enteritidis phage type 4 were examined for virulence in BALB/c mice. The possession of a 38 MDa plasmid was necessary for full virulence. Strains carrying this plasmid had LD50 values of 〈20 bacteria whilst plasmid-free strains had LD50 values of 〉106 bacteria when challenged intraperitoneally. Pathogenesis of disease involved the widespread distribution of bacteria throughout the tissues.Possession of the 38 MDa plasmid could not be linked with the ability of strains to express novel outer membrane proteins, to produce toxins affecting Vero, Y1, HeLa, Henle or HEp-2 cells, or to invade HEp-2 cells. Furthermore, the 38 MDa plasmid did not encode an aerobactin-mediated iron uptake system or the production of a haemolysin.Strains of S. enteritidis PT4 isolated in 1967, 1978 or 1979 and possessing the 38 MDa plasmid showed the same virulence properties as the current plasmid-carrying strains. This suggests that the enhanced virulence of the current strains for poultry is unlikely to be the result of changes in the 38 MDa plasmid.

    Expression of a new porin ‘OmpE’ by strains of Salmonella enteritidis (1993)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Strains of Salmonella enteritidis expressed a novel porin with a subunit size of 35.5 kDa as shown by SDS-PAGE. This protein was expressed as a major outer membrane protein (MOMP) when grown on nutrient agar, McConkey agar or blood agar, or in Tris-succinate medium; but was only produced in trace amounts when strains were grown in nutrient broth. This OMP was produced by all strains of S. enteritidis examined, regardless of phage type, and expression was not related to the possession of a 38-MDa mouse-virulence plasmid or the ability of strains to make long-chain lipopolysaccharide. This new porin has been tentatively called OmpE.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Sera, from 17 patients with diarrhoea or haemolytic uraemic syndrome, and six healthy adults, were tested for neutralisation of Vero cytotoxins (VT). For all 17 patients there was evidence of infection with Escherichia coli O157. Sera from two controls but from none of the patients neutralised VT1, although two patients were infected by strains producing VT1 and VT2. Sera from all six controls and 14 patients neutralised VT2 derived from strains 933 and E32511, but not variant forms of VT2 derived from strains E32511, E57, B2F1 and H.1.8. This neutralising activity warrants further investigation, especially as many 0157 VTEC carry both VT2 and VT2 variant genes.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract: Sequences regulating production of fimbriae were cloned from two enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains. One cloned region, from E. coli 025.H42, controlled expression of coli surface-associated (CS) antigen 4, whereas the function of the other, from E. coli 0167.H5, was unclear. Both regulators were related to the cfaD gene that controls expression of colonization factor antigen I (CFA/I) although low stringency conditions were required to show significant hybridization between cfaD and the regulatory fragment from E. coli 0167. The cloned regulatory genes promoted expression of CFA/I, CS1, CS2 and CS4 antigens but the levels of production in the presence of the 0167 regulator were lower than those promoted by the CS4 regulator of cfaD.

    Notes: Abstract A type of in vivo phenotype of Campylobacter jejuni was obtained by maintaining bacteria in the peritoneal cavities of chickens for one week. These bacteria, which had not been subcultured on laboratory media, were used to prepare outer membranes for comparison with C. jejuni grown in vitro. Flagella with subunits of 65 kDa and a single porin with a protein subunit of 49 kDa were expressed constitutively; however, outer membrane proteins of 55, 35 and 20 kDa, and intermediate-chain lipopolysaccharide were only expressed by bacteria maintained in chickens.
