DETERMINATION OF DOMINANT SEROVARS OF LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES
Serovars of Lisreria l1Iollocyrogelles were determined. Sera of aborted samples (200) were collected from different hospitals in Tehran and were tested serologically by immunofluorescent antibody methods (IF tests). 137 positive sera were identified. Positive sera were tested against 12 serovars of Listeria l1Iollocytogelles separately. Titers of antibody in patients' sera for all serovars ...
متن کاملEpidemiological burden of Listeria monocytogenes in Iran
Objective(s): Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogenic bacteria causing the infection listeriosis, which possibly affects all people, particularly immunocompromised persons and pregnant women. This microorganism can be found in several processed foods, dairy products, raw milk, meat and fish products, seafoods, eggs, fruits, and vegetables. This review discusses about the epidemiologica...
متن کاملREALIS: Postgenomic Analysis of Listeria Monocytogenes
Listeria monocytogenes is a remarkably successful food-borne pathogen. It is capable a) of surviving and proliferating under conditions that exist within the food chain, such as at low temperatures, high salt and low pH and b) of colonizing animal host tissues after ingestion of contaminated food, causing opportunistic infections mainly, but not exclusively, in immunocompromised hosts. The ulti...
متن کاملFascin-mediated propulsion of Listeria monocytogenes independent of frequent nucleation by the Arp2/3 complex
Actin-dependent propulsion of Listeria monocytogenes is thought to require frequent nucleation of actin polymerization by the Arp2/3 complex. We demonstrate that L. monocytogenes motility can be separated into an Arp2/3-dependent nucleation phase and an Arp2/3-independent elongation phase. Elongation-based propulsion requires a unique set of biochemical factors in addition to those required for...
متن کاملEngineered Listeria monocytogenes as an AIDS vaccine.
Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) is an attractive vector to elicit T cell immunity because it infects antigen-presenting cells and because infection originates at the mucosa. Lm expressing HIV gag elicits sustained high levels of gag-specific CTL in mice. Since Lm causes disease in immunocompromised hosts, a highly attenuated strain of Lm that requires D-Ala for viability was produced. Attenuated ba...
