induction of interleukin-8 production via nuclear factor-kappab activation in human intestinal epithelial cells infected with vibrio vulnificus.	vibrio vulnificus, a gram-negative estuarine bacterium, is a causative agent of food-borne diseases, such as life-threatening septicaemia and wound infection disease. v. vulnificus penetrating into the epithelial barrier stimulates an inflammatory response in the adjacent mucosa. therefore, interaction between v. vulnificus and epithelial cells is important for understanding of both the immunology of mucosal surfaces and v. vulnificus. in this study, we investigated the effect and action mechani ...	2005	16011519
selectivity and specificity of a chromogenic medium for detecting vibrio parahaemolyticust.	the thiosulfate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose agar (tcbs) used in the most-probable-number method for detecting vibrio parahaemolyticus cannot differentiate growth of v. parahaemolyticus from vibrio vulnificus or vibrio mimicus. this study examined the selectivity and specificity of bio-chrome vibrio medium (bcvm), a chromogenic medium that detects v. parahaemolyticus on the basis of the formation of distinct purple colonies on the medium. a panel consisting of 221 strains of bacteria, including 17 ...	2005	16013386
quorum sensing signal molecules (acylated homoserine lactones) in gram-negative fish pathogenic bacteria.	the aim of the present study was to investigate the production of quorum sensing signals (specifically acylated homoserine lactones, ahls) among a selection of strains of gram-negative fish bacterial pathogens. these signals are involved in the regulation of virulence factors in some human and plant-pathogenic bacteria. a total of 59 strains, representing 9 different fish pathogenic species, were tested against 2 ahl monitor bacteria (agrobacterium tumefaciens nt1 [pzlr4] and chromobacterium vio ...	2005	16042042
in vitro efficacy of the combination of ciprofloxacin and cefotaxime against vibrio vulnificus.	we performed time-kill studies of antimicrobial combinations that included minocycline, cefotaxime, and ciprofloxacin with vibrio vulnificus atcc 27562. cefotaxime-plus-ciprofloxacin combinations acted synergistically against v. vulnificus in vitro, and this combination regimen can be a good choice as the empirical treatment for suspected necrotizing fasciitis due to v. vulnificus.	2005	16048966
rapid phenotypic characterization of vibrio isolates by pyrolysis metastable atom bombardment mass spectrometry.	pyrolysis mass spectrometry was investigated for rapid characterization of food-borne bacterial pathogens. nine isolates of vibrio parahaemolyticus and one isolate each of vibrio fluvialis, vibrio hollisae, and vibrio vulnificus were analyzed. pyrolysis mass spectra, generated via an alternative ionization method, metastable atom bombardment, were subject to principal component-discriminant analysis. the spectral patterns were used to distinguish vibrio isolates differing in species, serotype an ...	2005	16096691
a novel, conserved cluster of genes promotes symbiotic colonization and sigma-dependent biofilm formation by vibrio fischeri.	vibrio fischeri is the exclusive symbiont residing in the light organ of the squid euprymna scolopes. to understand the genetic requirements for this association, we searched a library of v. fischeri transposon insertion mutants for those that failed to colonize e. scolopes. we identified four mutants that exhibited severe defects in initiating colonization. sequence analysis revealed that the strains contained insertions in four different members of a cluster of 21 genes oriented in the same di ...	2005	16102015
induction of manganese-containing superoxide dismutase is required for acid tolerance in vibrio vulnificus.	the manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (mnsod) of vibrio vulnificus, normally detected after the onset of the stationary phase, is expressed during the lag that immediately follows the transfer of cells grown exponentially to a fresh medium acidified to ph 5.0, whereas fe-containing sod is constitutively expressed. the signal triggering the growth lag and mnsod induction therein is not low ph but intracellular superoxide accumulated under these conditions, since addition of a superoxide s ...	2005	16109940
identification of group a streptococcus antigenic determinants upregulated in vivo.	group a streptococcus (gas) causes a range of diseases in humans, from mild noninvasive infections to severe invasive infections. the molecular basis for the varying severity of disease remains unclear. we identified genes expressed during invasive disease using in vivo-induced antigen technology (iviat), applied for the first time in a gram-positive organism. convalescent-phase sera from patients with invasive disease were pooled, adsorbed against antigens derived from in vitro-grown gas, and u ...	2005	16113323
four novel hemolysin genes of vibrio anguillarum and their virulence to rainbow trout.	four nucleotide sequences showing homology to known hemolysin genes were cloned and sequenced from v. anguillarum strain h775-3. the four genes, vah2, vah3, vah4 and vah5, have open reading frames encoding polypeptides of 291, 690, 200 and 585 amino acid residues, respectively, with predicted molecular masses of 33, 75, 22 and 66kda, respectively. vah2 is most closely related to a putative hemolysin of vibrio vulnificus yj016 (89% identity). vah3 is most closely related to a hemolysin-related pr ...	2005	16126365
a rapid and simple pcr analysis indicates there are two subgroups of vibrio vulnificus which correlate with clinical or environmental isolation.	vibrio vulnificus is an estuarine bacterium which is the causative agent of both food-borne disease and wound infection. although v. vulnificus is commonly found in molluscan shellfish at high numbers, the incidence of disease is relatively low, leading to the hypothesis that not all strains of v. vulnificus are equally virulent. unfortunately, there is currently no easy test to identify virulent strains of this species. we have previously identified a 200 bp randomly amplified polymorphic dna ( ...	2005	15840964
vibrio vulnificus septicemia presenting as purpura fulminans.	we present a case of vibrio vulnificus septicemia presenting as purpura fulminans, which can often result in a catastrophic course. this case had a fortunate outcome due to immediate and intensive empirical antibiotic treatment and the relatively healthy condition of the patient. we focused on the prognostic factors for the relatively good outcome in this patient.	2005	15841662
