Mycobacterium bovis BCG mycobacteria--new application.
The polarized response of T helper-2 (Th2) lymphocytes to an allergen is considered to be the main cause of the pathogenesis of asthma. In this study, we asked a question whether M. bovis BCG mycobacteria which are known for the preferential stimulation of T helper-1 (Th1) immunity, diminish the effector functions of Th2 cells from allergic patients upon stimulation with a common house dust mit...
متن کاملA new Thermus-Escherichia coli shuttle integration vector system.
We established a Thermus thermophilus strain in which the pyrE gene (coding for orotate phosphoribosyltransferase of the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway) was totally deleted. We also constructed an integration vector, which consisted of the Escherichia coli plasmid vector pBluescript and a 2.1-kb segment of the T. thermophilus leu operon sequence, for the integration of a foreign gene into a ch...
متن کاملStable Escherichia coli-Clostridium acetobutylicum shuttle vector for secretion of murine tumor necrosis factor alpha.
Recombinant plasmids were constructed to secrete mouse tumor necrosis factor alpha (mTNF-alpha) from Clostridium acetobutylicum. The shuttle plasmids contained the clostridial endo-beta1, 4-glucanase (eglA) promoter and signal sequence that was fused in frame to the mTNF-alpha cDNA. The construction was first tested in Escherichia coli and then introduced in C. acetobutylicum DSM792 by electrop...
متن کاملDisseminated Mycobacterium bovis infection after BCG vaccination.
The Calmette-Güerin vaccine (BCG) is administered to all the newborns in Iran in order to prevent tuberculosis. Complications of this vaccine are uncommon. We report disseminated BCG disease in 17 patients less than 10 years old. This is a retrospective study of total of 17 cases who were admitted in Children Medical Center Hospital with systemic syndrome compatible with Mycobacterium disease w...
متن کاملVaccination-related Mycobacterium bovis BCG Infection
the upstream rpoBF1 but with a DNA uptake sequence (in lower case) that was added at the 5′ end to permit DNA transformation (7). The transformant strain NM05-08 was resistant to rifampin (MIC >32 mg/L), and the sequence of the rpoB gene confirmed the His→Tyr mutation. When compared to the parental isolate (LNP21362), strain NM05-08 showed reduced virulence. Indeed, bacterial loads were similar...
