quantitative oligonucleotide microarray fingerprinting of salmonella enterica isolates.we report on a genome-independent microbial fingerprinting method using nucleic acid microarrays for microbial forensics and epidemiology applications and demonstrate that the microarray method provides high resolution differentiation between closely related microorganisms, using salmonella enterica strains as the test case. in replicate trials we used a simple 192 probe nonamer array to construct a fingerprint library of 25 closely related salmonella isolates. controlling false discovery rate f ...200415037662
the probiotic escherichia coli strain nissle 1917 interferes with invasion of human intestinal epithelial cells by different enteroinvasive bacterial pathogens.the probiotic escherichia coli strain nissle 1917 (mutaflor) of serotype o6:k5:h1 was reported to protect gnotobiotic piglets from infection with salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium. an important virulence property of salmonella is invasion of host epithelial cells. therefore, we tested for interference of e. coli strain nissle 1917 with salmonella invasion of int407 cells. simultaneous administration of e. coli strain nissle 1917 and salmonella resulted in up to 70% reduction of salmonella ...200415039098
lon protease activity causes down-regulation of salmonella pathogenicity island 1 invasion gene expression after infection of epithelial cells.salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium causes self-limiting gastroenteritis in humans and a typhoid-like disease in mice that serves as a model for typhoid infections in humans. a critical step in salmonella pathogenesis is the invasion of enterocytes and m cells of the small intestine via expression of a type iii secretion system, encoded on salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (spi-1), that secretes effector proteins into host cells, leading to engulfment of the bacteria within large membrane ru ...200415039320
rapid expression of chemokines and proinflammatory cytokines in newly hatched chickens infected with salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium.poultry meat and eggs contaminated with salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis or salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium are common sources of acute gastroenteritis in humans. however, the exact nature of the immune mechanisms protective against salmonella infection in chickens has not been characterized at the molecular level. in the present study, bacterial colonization, development of pathological lesions, and proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine gene expression were investigated in the l ...200415039338
salmonella flagellin is not a dominant protective antigen in oral immunization with attenuated live vaccine strains.we found that oral immunization with flagellum-defective mutant strains of salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium with the clpxp-deficient background protected mice against oral challenge with the virulent strain. these data indicate that salmonella flagellin is not a dominant protective antigen in oral immunization with attenuated live vaccine strains.200415039380
effect of 2-deoxy-d-glucose induced stress on salmonella choleraesuis shedding and persistence in swine.a glucose analog, 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2dg), previously shown in swine to induce many of the hallmark parameters of stress, was administered to salmonella choleraesuis carrier-swine and the effects on salmonella fecal shedding and tissue colonization were evaluated. initially, pigs were divided into two groups, one that received 1 x 10 (6) s. choleraesuis and one group that received saline. at 3 or 6 weeks post inoculation (pi), half of each group received an injection of 2dg and the other half re ...200415046951
expression of acrb, acrf, acrd, mara, and soxs in salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium: role in multiple antibiotic resistance.comparative reverse transcription-pcr in combination with denaturing high-pressure liquid chromatography analysis was used to determine the levels of expression of soxs, mara, acrf, acrb, and acrd in multiple-antibiotic-resistant (mar) salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium isolates and mutants of s. enterica serovar typhimurium sl1344 with defined deletions. posttherapy mar clinical isolates had increased levels of expression of all genes except soxs. s. enterica serovar typhimurium sl1344 del ...200415047514
evidence for a chromosomally located third integron in salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium dt104b.salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium isolates of phage types dt104 and dt104b are frequently associated with multiple antimicrobial resistance. we describe the characterization of a class 1 integron containing dfra1 and aada1, genes from two salmonella serovar typhimurium dt104b isolates. genetic mapping located the integron to the bacterial chromosome in each case.200415047541
protection from bacterial infection by a single vaccination with replication-deficient mutant herpes simplex virus type 1.adaptive immune responses in which cd8(+) t cells recognize pathogen-derived peptides in the context of major histocompatibility complex class i molecules play a major role in the host defense against infection with intracellular pathogens. cells infected with intracellular bacteria such as listeria monocytogenes, salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium, or mycobacterium tuberculosis are directly lysed by cytotoxic cd8(+) t cells. for this reason, current vaccines for intracellular pathogens, su ...200415047818
tubular glands of the isthmus are the predominant colonization site of salmonella enteritidis in the upper oviduct of laying hens.salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis is the serovar most frequently isolated from chicken eggs. colonization of the upper oviduct of hens is believed to play an important role in egg contamination. the interaction of s. enteritidis with gland epithelial cells of the isthmus and the magnum was, therefore, studied in vitro and in vivo. in the first experiment, s. enteritidis bacteria were added to confluent monolayers of primary cultures of chicken tubular epithelial cells of the isthmus (ictec ...200415049486

characterization of six flagellin genes in the h3, h53 and h54 standard strains of escherichia coli.six flagellin genes in three h standard escherichia coli strains for h3, h53 and h54 were characterized. each strain has two flagellin genes, one of which is expressed as its standard h antigen. a pair of flagellin genes flka3 (encoding for h3 antigen) and flic16 (h16) was cloned from bi7327-41, flka53 (h53) and flic-53 from e480-68, and flma54 (h54) and flic-54 from e223-69. two flic genes, flic-53 and flic-54, are nonfunctional owing to the insertions of is1 and is1222, respectively. the flka ...200415056931
genetic analysis of the salmonella enterica type iii secretion-associated atpase invc defines discrete functional domains.an essential component of all type iii secretion systems is a highly conserved atpase that shares significant amino acid sequence similarity to the beta subunit of the f(0)f(1) atpases and is thought to provide the energy for the secretion process. we have performed a genetic and functional analysis of invc, the atpase associated with the salmonella enterica type iii secretion system encoded within its pathogenicity island 1. through a mutagenesis analysis, we have identified amino acid residues ...200415060043
phop can activate its target genes in a phoq-independent manner.the phop/phoq two-component system controls the extracellular magnesium depletion response in salmonella enterica. previous studies have shown that phop is unable to up-regulate its target genes in the absence of phoq function. in this work, we demonstrate that phop overexpression can substitute for phoq- and phosphorylation-dependent activation. either a high concentration of phop or activation via phosphorylation stimulates phop self-association.200415060051
bacteria-host interactions of salmonella paratyphi b dt+ in poultry.in recent years, a dramatic increase in incidence of the dextro-rotatory tartrate-positive variant (dt+) of salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar paratyphi b has been observed in poultry and poultry products. in the present study the interactions of this bacterium with the host were studied in vivo and in vitro in an attempt to explain the preferential association of this serotype with poultry. the ability of this organism to invade and multiply in chicken intestinal epithelial cells a ...200415061498

plasmid-mediated florfenicol and ceftriaxone resistance encoded by the flor and bla(cmy-2) genes in salmonella enterica serovars typhimurium and newport isolated in the united states.multidrug resistance plasmids carrying the bla(cmy-2) gene have been identified in salmonella enterica serovars typhimurium and newport from the united states. this gene confers decreased susceptibility to ceftriaxone, and is most often found in strains with concomitant resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, sulfamethoxazole and tetracycline. the bla(cmy-2)-carrying plasmids studied here were shown to also carry the florfenicol resistance gene, flor, on a genetic structure prev ...200415063500
oral immunization of chickens with avirulent salmonella vaccine strain carrying c. jejuni 72dz/92 cjaa gene elicits specific humoral immune response associated with protection against challenge with wild-type campylobacter.it is well documented that poultry and poultry products are the major source of human campylobacteriosis and salmonellosis. this study examined the general efficacy of avirulent salmonella vaccine strains expressing campylobacter antigen as a bivalent chicken vaccine prototype. three c. jejuni genes: cjaa (cj0982c), cjac (cj0734c) and cjad (cj0113) encoding highly immunogenic proteins which are conserved among different campylobacter serotypes, were introduced into avirulent salmonella enterica ...200415063560
a link between transcription and intermediary metabolism: a role for sir2 in the control of acetyl-coenzyme a synthetase.the silent information regulator protein (sir2) and its homologs (collectively known as sirtuins) are nad+-dependent deacetylase enzymes involved in chromosome stability, gene silencing and cell aging in eukaryotes and archaea. the discovery that sirtuin-dependent protein deacetylation is a nad+-consuming reaction established a link with the energy generation systems of the cell. this link to metabolism was recently extended to the post-translational control of the activity of short-chain fatty ...200415063846
the shda adhesin binds to the cationic cradle of the fibronectin 13fniii repeat module: evidence for molecular mimicry of heparin binding.introduction of salmonella enterica serotype typhimurium into food products results from its ability to persist in the intestine of healthy livestock by mechanisms that are poorly understood. the non-fimbrial adhesin shda is a fibronectin binding protein required for persistent intestinal carriage of s. typhimurium. we further investigated the molecular mechanism of shda-mediated intestinal persistence by determining the binding-site of this receptor in fibronectin. analysis of shda binding to f ...200415066025
health hazards posed by feral pigeons.a comprehensive literature search of epidemiological studies and reports of transmissions of disease from feral pigeons to humans was performed. there were 176 documented transmissions of illness from feral pigeons to humans reported between 1941 and 2003. feral pigeons harbored 60 different human pathogenic organisms, but only seven were transmitted to humans. aerosol transmission accounted for 99.4% of incidents. there was a single report of transmission of salmonella enterica serotype kiambu ...200415066331
effect of acidified feed on susceptibility of broiler chickens to intestinal infection by campylobacter and salmonella.consumption of poultry meat is associated with human campylobacter and salmonella infections. one way to control the presence of these bacteria in broiler flocks is to make chickens less susceptible for colonisation. acidification of feed may be a tool to reduce the campylobacter and salmonella carriage in broiler chickens. in the present experiments an acidified feed with high levels of organic acid, 5.7% lactic acid and 0.7% acetic acid, was applied. in an in vitro experiment the reduction or ...200415066728
influence of environmental factors and human activity on the presence of salmonella serovars in a marine environment.the temporal and spatial distribution of salmonella contamination in the coastal waters of galicia (northwestern spain) relative to contamination events with different environmental factors (temperature, wind, hours of sunlight, rainfall, and river flow) were investigated over a 4-year period. salmonellae were isolated from 127 of 5,384 samples of molluscs and seawater (2.4%), and no significant differences (p < 0.05) between isolates obtained in different years were observed. the incidence of s ...200415066800
fate of salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium on carrots and radishes grown in fields treated with contaminated manure composts or irrigation water.three different types of compost, pm-5 (poultry manure compost), 338 (dairy cattle manure compost), and nviro-4 (alkaline-ph-stabilized dairy cattle manure compost), and irrigation water were inoculated with an avirulent strain of salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium at 10(7) cfu g(-1) and 10(5) cfu ml(-1), respectively, to determine the persistence of salmonellae in soils containing these composts, in irrigation water, and also on carrots and radishes grown in these contaminated soils. a spl ...200415066849
adaptive acid tolerance response in salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium and salmonella enterica serovar typhi.the survival of bacteria in various environments depends on a number of protective responses including acid tolerance response (atr). in this study, atr phenomenon was compared in salmonella enterica serovar typhi 6 and salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium 98 under different culture conditions. survival of the adapted culture (pre-acid shocked to ph 5.5) was significantly better (p < 0.05) as compared to control, unadapted culture after acid shock at ph 3.3. however, the atr varied with the s ...200415069673
salmonella typhi encodes a functional cytolethal distending toxin that is delivered into host cells by a bacterial-internalization pathway.many bacterial pathogens encode the cytolethal distending toxin (cdt), which causes host cells to arrest during their cell cycle by inflicting dna damage. cdt is composed of three proteins, cdta, cdtb, and cdtc. cdtb is the enzymatically active or a subunit, which possesses dnase i-like activity, whereas cdta and cdtc function as heteromeric b subunits that mediate the delivery of cdtb into host cells. we show here that salmonella enterica serovar typhi encodes cdt activity, which depends on the ...200415070766

development of a multiplex pcr technique for detection and epidemiological typing of salmonella in human clinical samples.we have developed a multiplex pcr assay for salmonella detection and epidemiological typing. six sets of primers were designed to detect the major salmonella serotypes and phage types in spain. an internal amplification control was designed in order to detect pcr inhibition. the different amplification profiles obtained allowed us to detect salmonella bacteria and to distinguish the clinically prevalent salmonella enterica serotypes enteritidis, typhimurium and subspecies i serotype 4,5,12:i:-. ...200415071035
molecular characterization of a prophage of salmonella enterica serotype typhimurium dt104.isolates of the salmonella enterica serotype typhimurium definitive phage type (dt104) were found to contain the same prophage (designated phage st104). the complete sequence of the dna genome of prophage st104 was determined. the entire dna sequence consisted of 41,391 bp, including 64 open reading frames, and exhibited high similarity to p22 and to phage type conversion phage st64t.200415071057
flagella and curli fimbriae are important for the growth of salmonella enterica serovars in hen eggs.salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis is unable to multiply in the albumen of fresh eggs and must gain access to the yolk contents in order to multiply to a high level (>10(6) c.f.u. per ml egg contents). as human salmonella infections resulting from the consumption of infected eggs more frequently involve serovar enteritidis phage type (pt) 4 than other serovars or pts, a number of isolates of various s. enterica serovars were examined for their ability to multiply to a high level in eggs ove ...200415073315
effect of drinking-water administration of experimental chlorate ion preparations on salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium colonization in weaned and finished pigs.foodborne disease caused by salmonella is of public health and economic significance. in order to assess the practical effectiveness of a new intervention strategy, experimental chlorate preparations (ecp) were administered via the drinking water to weaned and finished pigs that had been orally challenged the previous day with 10(9)-10(10) colony-forming units of salmonella serovar typhimurium. after 24 or 36 h ad libitum access to 0x, 1x or 2x ecp treatment (where x is the concentration estimat ...200415074764
deciphering the function of an orf: salmonella enterica deom protein is a new mutarotase specific for deoxyribose.we identified in salmonella enterica serovar typhi a cluster of four genes encoding a deoxyribokinase (deok), a putative permease (deop), a repressor (deoq), and an open reading frame encoding a 337 amino acid residues protein of unknown function. we show that the latter protein, called deom, is a hexamer whose synthesis is increased by a factor over 5 after induction with deoxyribose. the cd spectrum of the purified recombinant protein indicated a dominant contribution of betatype secondary str ...200415075407
foodborne outbreaks in northern portugal, 2002.in october 2001, foodborne outbreaks (fbo) were included in the portuguese alert and response surveillance system. accordingly, the northern regional health authority (delegado regional de saude do norte--drsn) began a surveillance programme of foodborne outbreaks. this report is a brief description of data generated from this programme in 2002. for each foodborne outbreak the local health authority (delegado de saude concelhio--dsc) produced a written report. fifty-nine percent of the 27 fbos s ...200415075482
the role of litter beetles as potential reservoir for salmonella enterica and thermophilic campylobacter spp. between broiler flocks.we evaluated the role of beetles infesting broiler chicken rearing facilities as potential reservoirs for salmonella enterica infections between successive broiler flocks. in addition, their role as potential reservoirs for thermophilic campylobacter spp. was also investigated. fourteen broiler houses located at 11 different farms were included in the study. the houses were nonrandomly selected on the basis of their salmonella status; nine were persistently contaminated with salmonella whereas f ...200415077793
effects of prior coinfection with different salmonella serovars on the progression of a salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis infection in hens undergoing induced molt.four trials were conducted to evaluate whether prior infection with salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium (s. typhimurium) or salmonella enterica serovar muenchen (s. muenchen) would modify the severity or the transmission of salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis (s. enteritidis) challenge in hens undergoing molt via feed withdrawal. hens were separated into two groups where one group received a prior s. typhimurium or s. muenchen infection, whereas the other group remained untreated until s ...200415077810
