Culture conditions affect cytotoxin production by Serratia marcescens.
Cytotoxins have been implicated in the pathogenesis of bacterial infections. In this study, the influence of different culture conditions was evaluated on cytotoxin production of Serratia marcescens. Parameters such as culture media, incubation temperature, starting pH of culture medium, aeration, anaerobiosis, carbon sources, iron concentration in he culture media, and release of cell-bond tox...
متن کاملCytotoxin production in phytopathogenic and entomopathogenic Serratia marcescens.
In this work, culture filtrates of entomopathogenic and phytopathogenic Serratia marcescens strains induced cytotoxic effects on CHO, Vero and HEp-2 cell lines. Morphological changes on sensitive cells were characterized by cell rounding and detachment as soon as 30 min of incubation, culminating in cell death after 24 h. The cytotoxic effect was completely neutralized by specific antiserum ind...
متن کاملBiological activity of Serratia marcescens cytotoxin.
Serratia marcescens cytotoxin was purified to homogeneity by ion-exchange chromatography on a DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow column, followed by gel filtration chromatography on a Sephadex G100 column. The molecular mass of the cytotoxin was estimated to be about 50 kDa. Some biological properties of the cytotoxin were analyzed and compared with well-characterized toxins, such as VT1, VT2 and CNF fro...
متن کاملCulture Conditions Affect Expression of DUX4 in FSHD Myoblasts.
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is believed to be caused by aberrant expression of double homeobox 4 (DUX4) due to epigenetic changes of the D4Z4 region at chromosome 4q35. Detecting DUX4 is challenging due to its stochastic expression pattern and low transcription level. In this study, we examined different cDNA synthesis strategies and the sensitivity for DUX4 detection. In addi...
متن کاملSonic Stimulation can affect Production of Quorum Sensing Regulated Pigment in Serratia marcescens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Effect of nine different mono-frequency sound stimuli on two gram-negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens) was investigated. Frequency of the test sound ranged from 100 Hz – 2,000 Hz. Both the test bacteria responded differently to sonic stimulation. Sound corresponding to 600 HZ caused a notable reduction in quorum sensing (QS) regulated production of the pigment pyov...
