Inactivation of tryptic activity by a human-derived strain of Bacteroides distasonis in the large intestines of gnotobiotic rats and mice.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tryptic activity disappeared and trypsin was no longer detected with an antitrypsin antiserum in the large intestines of gnotobiotic rats and mice monoassociated with a human-derived strain of Bacteroides distasonis, whereas tryptic activity was not modified in the small intestines. This function was shown to be strain specific.

Distribution and effects of a defined six-member murine-derived microflora in gnotobiotic gerbils.
The gnotobiotic gerbil was selected as a model with which to study the effects of colonization with a defined microflora on organ morphology, histology, and selected blood biochemical parameters. Gerbils were maintained germfree for 13 months but failed to reproduce, presumably because of the enlarged cecum. A colony of gnotobiotic gerbils that was associated with a bacterial flora consisting o...

Rumen bacterial strains can potentially be manipulated to perform functions different from wild type species. The most numerous species of bacteria in the rumen and gut are species of the familyBacteroidetes, whichcan have the potential for genetic modification for enzyme production. One of the genetic manipulation of rumen bacteria can perform for production of starch digestive enzyme for the ...

Production and purification of human growth hormone using a simple method was studied in two recombinantEscherichia coli, D7-5 and C27-2 strains. The r-hGH was expressed in the form of inclusion body in a batchfermentation process and purified to 99% purity using a procedure based on acid precipitation of the hostderived proteins and other impurities. The effect of the pH and ...
متن کاملAntagonism among the normal anaerobic bacteria of the mouse gastrointestinal tract determined by immunofluorescence.
Strictly anaerobic Bacteroides sp., Eubacterium sp., and Fusobacterium sp. were isolated from the cecum of a conventional mouse. An immunofluorescent method utilizing rabbit antisera specific for each of these three strains was developed to determine their population levels in the gastrointestinal tracts of gnotobiotic mice. Population levels of these anaerobes in groups of gnotobiotic mice col...
متن کاملB1 cells contribute to serum IgM, but not to intestinal IgA, production in gnotobiotic Ig allotype chimeric mice.
B1 cells are a significant source of natural serum IgM, thereby serving as a first line of defense against systemic bacterial and viral infections. They can migrate to the intestinal lamina propria and differentiate into IgA-producing plasma cells and thus might play a similar role in mucosal immunity. To investigate the contribution of B1 cells to the intestinal IgA response induced by the com...
