Clinical and environmental isolates of Aeromonas species (five A. hydrophila isolates, three A. caviae isolates, and two A. sobria isolates) were tested for their adherence to HEp-2 cells. Clinical isolates of A. hydrophila and A. sobria exhibited aggregative adherence similar to that presented by enteroadherent-aggregative Escherichia coli. Bacterial aggregates adhered to cells with a typical "stacked-brick" appearance. In contrast, A. caviae strains showed a diffuse adherence pattern.
对气单胞菌属的临床分离株和环境分离株(5株嗜水气单胞菌分离株、3株豚鼠气单胞菌分离株和2株温和气单胞菌分离株)进行了它们对人喉上皮癌细胞(HEp-2细胞)黏附性的检测。嗜水气单胞菌和温和气单胞菌的临床分离株表现出与肠黏附性聚集性大肠杆菌相似的聚集性黏附。细菌聚集体以典型的“堆叠砖”外观黏附于细胞。相比之下,豚鼠气单胞菌菌株呈现出弥漫性黏附模式。
