Enterohemorrhagic E. coli strains (EHEC) had emerged as foodborne pathogens and cause in human diarrhea and hemolytic-uremic syndrome. Because of the widespread distribution of EHEC serotypes and O157 and non-O157 in cattle population, its control will require interventions at the farm level such as the administration of probiotics that produce inhibitory metabolites. E. coli O157:H7 shows tissue tropisms for the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of cattle. The aim of this study was to test the ability of a colicinogenic E. coli (isolated from bovine) to reduce the adherence of E. coli O157:H7 to HEp-2 cells and to GIT of cattle. We inoculated HEp-2 cells and bovine colon explants with both kinds of strains. Colicinogenic E. coli was able to reduce the adherence of E. coli O157:H7 to HEp-2 cells and to bovine tissues.
肠出血性大肠杆菌菌株(EHEC)已成为食源性病原体,可导致人类腹泻和溶血尿毒综合征。由于EHEC血清型以及O157和非O157在牛群中广泛分布,对其进行控制需要在农场层面采取干预措施,例如施用能产生抑制性代谢物的益生菌。大肠杆菌O157:H7对牛的胃肠道(GIT)表现出组织嗜性。本研究的目的是测试一种产大肠杆菌素的大肠杆菌(从牛分离得到)降低大肠杆菌O157:H7对HEp-2细胞以及牛胃肠道黏附的能力。我们用这两种菌株接种HEp-2细胞和牛结肠外植体。产大肠杆菌素的大肠杆菌能够降低大肠杆菌O157:H7对HEp-2细胞和牛组织的黏附。
