        Virulence-associated Genome Sequences of Pasteurella canis and Unique Toxin Gene Prevalence of P. canis and Pasteurella multocida Isol

        Yoshida Haruno,Kim Jung-Min,Maeda Takahiro,Goto Mieko,Tsuyuki Yuzo,Shibata Sachiko,Shizuno Kenichi,Okuzumi Katsuko,Kim Jae-Seok,Takahashi Takashi 대한진단검사의학회 2023 Annals of Laboratory Medicine Vol.43 No.3

        Background: Comparative analysis of virulence factors (VFs) between Pasteurella canis and Pasteurella multocida are lacking, although both cause zoonotic infections. We determined the virulence-associated genome sequence characteristics of P. canis and assessed the toxin gene prevalence unique to P. canis among clinical isolates of P. canis and P. multocida. Methods: We selected 10 P. canis and 16 P. multocida whole-genome sequences (WGSs) from the National Center for Biotechnology database. The VFanalyzer tool was used to estimate P. canis-characteristic VFs. Amino acid sequences of VFs were compared with multiple-aligned sequences. The genome structure containing P. canis-characteristic and adjacent loci was compared to the corresponding P. multocida genome structure. After designing primer sequences and assessing their accuracy, we examined the gene prevalence of the P. canis-characteristic VFs using PCR among clinical isolates of P. multocida and P. canis. Results: Using VFanalyzer, we found virulence-associated cytolethal distending toxin (cdt)A–cdtB–cdtC loci common to all P. canis WGSs that were not found in P. multocida WGSs. Similarities in the multiple alignments of CdtA–CdtB–CdtC amino acid sequences were found among the 10 P. canis WGSs. Shared or similar loci around cdtA–cdtB–cdtC were identified between the P. canis and P. multocida genome structures. The PCR-based cdtA–cdtB–cdtC prevalence differed for P. canis and P. multocida clinical isolates. Conclusions: P. canis-specific cdtA–cdtB–cdtC prevalence was identified among clinical isolates. These three loci may be unique toxin genes and promising targets for the rapid identification of P. canis in clinical settings.

        Comparison of Characteristics of Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis Isolates Causing Repetitive vs Single Infections

        Tomohiro Fujita,Haruno Yoshida,Shunsuke Osaka,Yoneji Hirose,Mieko Goto,Noriyuki Nagano,Takashi Takahashi 대한진단검사의학회 2019 Annals of Laboratory Medicine Vol.39 No.5

        No study has described Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis (SDSE) isolates that cause repetitive infections (recurrence and reinfection). We compared the microbiological characteristics of SDSE causing repetitive infections with those causing single infections. Three patients with invasive infections were identified based on their medical records, and multiple SDSE isolates were collected at intervals over three weeks, using a laboratory repository. Isolates from 12 patients with single-episode infections served as controls. Six isolates were collected from three patients with first and second episodes of infection. All isolates causing either repetitive or single-episode infection were subjected to emm typing, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analyses. Amplification of five virulence genes (sicG, prtF1, prtF2, lmb, and cbp), biofilm formation (BF), and cell invasion abilities (CIAs) were measured as virulent phenotypes. We observed close genetic similarities in the data obtained by emm typing, MLST, PFGE, and RAPD in four isolates from two patients, suggesting recurrence, whereas two isolates from one patient indicated genetic differences in these data, suggesting re-infection. The presence of the five virulence genes and the BF and CIA measurements appeared not to contribute to repetitive infections, compared with isolates causing single-episode infection. In conclusion, clinicians encountering patients with repetitive infections should be aware of both possibilities: recurrence with closely related strains and reinfection with different strains.

        Prevalence of blaZ Gene and Performance of Phenotypic Tests to Detect Penicillinase in Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Japan

        Yoshiko Takayama,Takashi Tanaka,Koko Oikawa,Naoki Fukano,Mieko Goto,Takashi Takahashi 대한진단검사의학회 2018 Annals of Laboratory Medicine Vol.38 No.2

        Guidelines recommend that clinical laboratories perform phenotypic tests (nitrocefin-based test and penicillin 10-U [P10] or 1-U [P1] zone edge tests) to detect penicillinase in Staphylococcus aureus isolates. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of blaZ encoding penicillinase and perform various phenotypic tests in S. aureus isolates from Japan. We prospectively collected 200 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus isolates from June 2015 to January 2016 and performed six phenotypic tests (nitrocefin-based test, P10 zone edge test/P10 diffusion test, penicillin 2-U [P2] zone edge test/P2 diffusion test, and cloverleaf test) on each sample.
