Identification of Virulence Properties in Salmonella Typhimurium DT104 Using Caenorhabditis elegans
Salmonella enterica serover Typhimurium definitive phage type DT104, resistant to multiple antibiotics, is one of the most widespread Salmonella species in human infection worldwide. Although several cohort studies indicate that DT104 carrying the multidrug resistance (MDR) locus on salmonella genomic island 1 is a possible hyper-virulent strain compared to DT104 strains without MDR, or other S...
متن کاملSalmonella Typhimurium DT104, Italy
To the Editor: The recent article by Helms et al. described the distribution of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium definitive page type 104 (DT104) infections in 29 countries from 1992 to 2001 (1). Results from Italy were not presented because routine phage typing was not performed before 2001. Since 2002, circulation of S. Typhimurium phage types has been monitored by the laboratorybased ...
متن کاملDiversification in Salmonella Typhimurium DT104
To the Editor: Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella Typhimurium definitive phage type (DT) 104 with chromosomally encoded resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, strepto-mycin/spectinomycin, sulfonamides, and tetracyclines (ACSSpSuT) was first identified and characterized in the United Kingdom in the early 1990s (1). MDR DT104 has subsequently caused numerous outbreaks throughout the world (...
متن کاملDNA methylation modulates Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium virulence in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium was previously shown to be virulent in Caenorhabditis elegans. Here we demonstrate that DNA adenine methyltransferase (DAM) modulates Salmonella virulence in the nematode, as it does in mice. After 5 days of continual exposure to bacteria, twice as many worms died when exposed to the wild-type than the dam-mutant strain of Salmonella. Similar trends in vi...
متن کاملSalmonella typhimurium DT104 from livestock in Japan.
We examined the distribution of multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium definitive phage type 104 (DT104) among Japanese livestock from 1973 to 1998. The 144 S. Typhimurium field isolates were tested for susceptibility to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline, kanamycin, trimethoprim, nalidixic acid, and norfloxacin. Thirty-six of 68 stra...
