Cytotoxic effects of a leukocidin from Fusobacterium necrophorum were demonstrated on bovine hepatic cells. The cytotoxic response was dose-dependent and could be inhibited by homologous antiserum. Scanning electron microscopy revealed damaged hepatic cell surface. These findings indicated a pathogenic role of the leukocidin in F. necrophorum infections.
坏死梭杆菌白细胞毒素对牛肝细胞的细胞毒性作用得到证实。细胞毒性反应呈剂量依赖性,且可被同源抗血清抑制。扫描电子显微镜显示肝细胞表面受损。这些发现表明白细胞毒素在坏死梭杆菌感染中起致病作用。
