Lectin typing of Campylobacter concisus.
A total of 44 clinical isolates and the type strain of the putative pathogen Campylobacter concisus were grouped based on their reactions with plant lectins. The optimized lectin typing system used C. concisus strains proteolytically pretreated and subsequently typed by using a panel of four lectins. The system grouped all 45 strains into 13 lectin reaction patterns, leaving no strain untypeabl...
متن کاملNeutrophil activation by Campylobacter concisus
BACKGROUND Campylobacter concisus is an emerging enteric pathogen associated with prolonged diarrhoea and possibly inflammatory bowel disease in children as well as adults, but the interaction with cells of the innate immune system is unclear. The magnitude of systemic immunoglobulin response in acute infection is unknown. METHODS Neutrophils from healthy volunteers were activated with five f...
متن کاملCampylobacter concisus Genomospecies 2 Is Better Adapted to the Human Gastrointestinal Tract as Compared with Campylobacter concisus Genomospecies 1
Campylobacter concisus was previously shown to be associated with inflammatory bowel disease including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). C. concisus has two genomospecies (GS). This study systematically examined the colonization of GS1 and GS2 C. concisus in the human gastrointestinal tract. GS1 and GS2 specific polymorphisms in 23S rRNA gene were identified by comparison of the...
متن کاملExamination of the Anaerobic Growth of Campylobacter concisus Strains
Campylobacter concisus is an oral bacterium that is associated with intestinal diseases. C. concisus was previously described as a bacterium that requires H2-enriched microaerobic conditions for growth. The level of H2 in the oral cavity is extremely low, suggesting that C. concisus is unlikely to have a microaerobic growth there. In this study, the anaerobic growth of C. concisus was investiga...
متن کاملCampylobacter concisus: an emerging pathogen of the gastrointestinal tract
This chapter explores the role of Campylobacter concisus, as an emerging pathogen of the human gastrointestinal tract. This bacterium is a Gram negative curved rod that composes part of the gingival flora of the human oral cavity. The association of C. concisus with human periodontal diseases and gingivitis has been reported since the 1980s. However in this decade the focus on this species has ...
