Trojan horse effect: phagocyte-mediated Streptococcus iniae infection of fish.
The salmonid macrophage-like cell line RTS-11 and purified trout pronephros phagocytes were used to analyze in vitro entry and survival of two Streptococcus iniae serotypes. Efficient invasion by S. iniae occurred in both cells, but only the type II strain persisted in pronephros phagocytes for at least 48 h. Ex vivo models of opsonin-dependent phagocytosis by pronephros phagocytes demonstrated...

pose potential health risks, particularly to young children. While California has reported more cases of baylisascariasis than any other state, few published studies have reported on the distribution and prevalence of this helminth in the region. In 2001, we conducted a study to determine the presence of B. procyonis in the Santa Barbara area by examining roadkill raccoons recovered by animal c...
متن کاملRecovery of Streptococcus iniae from diseased fish previously vaccinated with a streptococcus vaccine.

متن کاملTowards Control of Streptococcus iniae
Streptococcus iniae is an emerging zoonotic pathogen; such infections generally occur through injuries associated with preparing whole fresh fish for cooking. Those infected to date have been of Asian descent, are usually elderly (average age 68 years), and have had >/=1 underlying conditions that may predispose them to infection. Studies of the foundations of growth characteristics of S. iniae...
متن کاملLarge-scale screen highlights the importance of capsule for virulence in the zoonotic pathogen Streptococcus iniae.
Zoonotic pathogens have the unique ability to cross the species barrier, causing disease in both humans and specific animal hosts. Streptococcus iniae is a zoonotic pathogen of both fish and humans, and the clinical presentations of S. iniae infections in fish and humans are very similar to those caused by various human-specific streptococcal pathogens. Virulence mechanisms required for infecti...
