Lactobacillus gasseri SBT2055 Reduces Infection by and Colonization of Campylobacter jejuni
Campylobacter is a normal inhabitant of the chicken gut. Pathogenic infection with this organism in humans is accompanied by severe inflammation of the intestinal mucosal surface. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of Lactobacillus gasseri SBT2055 (LG2055) to inhibit the adhesion and invasion of Campylobacter jejuni in vitro and to suppress C. jejuni colonization of chicks in viv...
متن کاملCampylobacter jejuni CsrA mediates oxidative stress responses, biofilm formation, and host cell invasion.
The putative global posttranscriptional regulator csrA was mutated in Campylobacter jejuni 81-176. The csrA mutant was attenuated in surviving oxidative stress. CsrA also contributed to biofilm formation and adherence to and invasion of INT407 intestinal epithelial cells, suggesting a regulatory role for CsrA in C. jejuni pathogenesis.
متن کاملMajor role for FeoB in Campylobacter jejuni ferrous iron acquisition, gut colonization, and intracellular survival.
To assess the importance of ferrous iron acquisition in Campylobacter physiology and pathogenesis, we disrupted and characterized the Fe2+ iron transporter, FeoB, in Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168, 81-176, and ATCC 43431. The feoB mutant was significantly affected in its ability to transport 55Fe2+. It accumulated half the amount of iron than the wild-type strain during growth in an iron-conta...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of lipooligosaccharide core biosynthesis in Campylobacter jejuni 81-176.
We report isolation and characterization of Campylobacter jejuni 81-176 lgtF and galT lipooligosaccharide (LOS) core mutants. It has been suggested that the lgtF gene of C. jejuni encodes a two-domain glucosyltransferase that is responsible for the transfer of a beta-1,4-glucose residue on heptosyltransferase I (Hep I) and for the transfer of a beta-1,2-glucose residue on Hep II. A site-specifi...
متن کاملN-linked protein glycosylation is required for full competence in Campylobacter jejuni 81-176.
The recent sequencing of the virulence plasmid of Campylobacter jejuni 81-176 revealed the presence of genes homologous to type IV secretion systems (TFSS) that have subsequently been found in Helicobacter pylori and Wolinella succinogenes. Mutational analyses of some of these genes have implicated their involvement in intestinal epithelial cell invasion and natural competence. In this report, ...
