Molecular analysis of Vibrio cholerae O1, O139, non-O1, and non-O139 strains: clonal relationships between clinical and environmental isolates.
A total of 26 strains of Vibrio cholerae, including members of the O1, O139, and non-O1, non-O139 serogroups from both clinical and environmental sources, were examined for the presence of genes encoding cholera toxin (ctxA), zonula occludens toxin (zot), accessory cholera enterotoxin (ace), hemolysin (hlyA), NAG-specific heat-stable toxin (st), toxin-coregulated pilus (tcpA), and outer membran...
متن کاملNewly Isolated Vibrio cholerae Non-O1, Non-O139 Phages
Although cytologic examination of CSF from patients with encephalitis is likely nonspecific, it may provide supportive information of the suspected disease process, and is useful for excluding other conditions, such as neoplasia. Of the 22 patients that were hospitalized at our institution last year with WNV meningoencephalitis, documented by serologic tests and/or reverse transcription-polymer...
متن کاملGenome Sequencing of 15 Clinical Vibrio Isolates, Including 13 Non-O1/Non-O139 Serogroup Strains
We present draft genome sequences of 15 clinical Vibrio isolates of various serogroups. These are valuable data for use in studying Vibrio cholerae genetic diversity, epidemic potential, and strain attribution.
متن کاملDistribution and sequence analysis of virulence associated genes in Vibrio cholerae O1, O139 and non-O1/non-O139 isolates from Thailand.
Virulence-associated genes of Vibrio cholerae including O1, O139 and non-O1/non-O139 from an outbreak in Songkhla Province and sporadic cases occurred in Thailand during 1993 - 2002 were investigated. One hundred eighty-five V. cholerae strains were examined for the presence of virulence-associated genes including ctxA, tcpA, zot, toxR, toxS, toxT, and ace by polymerase chain reaction. DNA sequ...
متن کاملClinical characteristics of non-O1/non-O139 Vibrio cholerae isolates and polymerase chain reaction analysis of their virulence factors.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Non-O1/non-O139 Vibrio cholerae can cause invasive extraintestinal disease as well as enteritis. The pathogenesis of invasive non-O1/non-O139 V. cholerae infections remains to be determined. This study compared the clinical manifestations and predisposing factors between bacteremic and non-bacteremic non-O1/non-O139 V. cholerae infections and examined virulence-associated...
