Abstract:
The importance of vibrio species other than Vibrio cholerae has only recently been appreciated. Vibrio parahaemolyticus has usually been associated with gastrointestinal tract infections although it may be a rare cause of soft tissue infection and septicemia. V alginolyticus is a rare cause of marine wound infections, otitis, and sepsis, and has not been associated with outbreaks of gastroenteritis. In 1976 Hollis et al1 described the characteristics of 38 isolates of a halophilic bacterium isolated from blood cultures (20), cerebrospinal fluid (2), and wound infections (16). Originally called Beneckea vulnifica, this organism was reassigned to the genus Vibrio and named V vulnificus by Farmer. It is a salt-requiring, marine vibrio that can be distinguished from other vibrio species by its ability to ferment lactose. V vulnificus is a particularly virulent organism that typically produces either primary septicemia that occurs after ingestion of raw shellfish, especially in patients with chronic liver disease, or a fulminating wound infection that occurs after exposure to seawater or handling of shellfish.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The in vitro effects of the Perkinsus marinus serine protease on the intracellular survival of Vibrio vulnificusin oyster hemocytes were examined by using a time-course gentamicin internalization assay. Results showed that protease-treated hemocytes were initially slower to internalize V. vulnificus than untreated hemocytes. After 1 h, the elimination of V. vulnificus by treated hemocytes was significantly suppressed compared with hemocytes infected with invasive and noninvasive controls. Our data suggest that the serine protease produced byP. marinus suppresses the vibriocidal activity of oyster hemocytes to effectively eliminate V. vulnificus, potentially leading to conditions favoring higher numbers of vibrios in oyster tissues.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Vibrio vulnificus is an estuarine bacterium that is capable of causing a rapidly fatal infection in humans. A randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) PCR protocol was developed for use in detecting V. vulnificus, as well as other members of the genus Vibrio. The resulting RAPD profiles were analyzed by using RFLPScan software. This RAPD method clearly differentiated between members of the genus Vibrio and between isolates ofV. vulnificus. Each V. vulnificus strain produced a unique band pattern, indicating that the members of this species are genetically quite heterogeneous. All of the vibrios were found to have amplification products whose sizes were within four common molecular weight ranges, while the V. vulnificusstrains had an additional two molecular weight range bands in common. All of the V. vulnificus strains isolated from clinical specimens produced an additional band that was only occasionally found in environmental strains; this suggests that, as is the case with the Kanagawa hemolysin of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, the presence of this band may be correlated with the ability of a strain to produce an infection in humans. In addition, band pattern differences were observed between encapsulated and nonencapsulated isogenic morphotypes of the same strain of V. vulnificus.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT While several studies on the ecology of Vibrio vulnificus in Gulf Coast environments have been reported, there is little information on the distribution of this pathogen in East Coast waters. Thus, we conducted a multiyear study on the ecology of V. vulnificus in estuarine waters of the eastern United States, employing extensive multiple regression analyses to reveal the major environmental factors controlling the presence of this pathogen, and of Vibrio spp., in these environments. Monthly field samplings were conducted between July 2000 and April 2002 at six different estuarine sites along the eastern coast of North Carolina. At each site, water samples were taken and nine physicochemical parameters were measured. V. vulnificus isolates, along with estuarine bacteria, Vibrio spp., Escherichia coli organisms, and total coliforms, were enumerated in samples from each site by using selective media. During the last 6 months of the study, sediment samples were also analyzed for the presence of vibrios, including V. vulnificus. Isolates were confirmed as V. vulnificus by using hemolysin gene PCR or colony hybridization. V. vulnificus was isolated only when water temperatures were between 15 and 27�C, and its presence correlated with water temperature and dissolved oxygen and vibrio levels. Levels of V. vulnificus in sediments were low, and no evidence for an overwintering in this environment was found. Multiple regression analysis indicated that vibrio levels were controlled primarily by temperature, turbidity, and levels of dissolved oxygen, estuarine bacteria, and coliforms. Water temperature accounted for most of the variability in the concentrations of both V. vulnificus (47%) and Vibrio spp. (48%).

Abstract:
ABSTRACT During the unusually warm summer in Denmark in 1994, 11 clinical cases of Vibrio vulnificus infection were reported. These reports initiated an investigation of the occurrence of V. vulnificus biotypes in Danish marine environments. Samples of coastal water, sediment, shellfish, and wild fish were analyzed by preenrichment in alkaline peptone water amended with polymyxin B (2.0 × 104 U/liter) followed by streaking onto modified cellobiose-polymyxin B-colistin agar. V. vulnificus-like colonies were tested with a V. vulnificus-specific DNA probe. Low densities of V. vulnificus were detected in water (0.8 to 19 CFU/liter) from June until mid-September and in sediment (0.04 to >11 CFU/g) from July until mid-November. The presence of V. vulnificus was strongly correlated with water temperature. However, we isolatedV. vulnificus from water from a mussel farm at a lower temperature than previously reported (7°C). In 1 of the 13 locations studied, V. vulnificus was found in mussels in 7 of 17 samples analyzed; this is the first report of V. vulnificusin European shellfish. V. vulnificus was also isolated from gills, intestinal contents, and mucus from wild fish. Although biotyping of 706 V. vulnificus strains isolated during our investigations revealed that the majority of the strains (99.6%) belonged to biotype 1, biotype 2 was detected in seawater at a low frequency (0.4%). Our findings provide further evidence that seawater can serve as a reservoir and might facilitate spread of V. vulnificus biotype 2 to eels, with subsequent spread to persons handling eels. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that V. vulnificus is ubiquitous in a temperate marine environment and that V. vulnificus biotype 2 is not strictly confined to eels.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT In the present study, we investigated the presence, seasonal distribution, and biomolecular characteristics of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio vulnificus in samples of bivalve mollusks (Mytilus galloprovincialis, Crassostrea gigas, and Ruditapes decussatus) harvested and marketed in Sardinia (Italy) between 2017 and 2018. A total of 435 samples were submitted for qualitative determination of Vibrio spp., V. parahaemolyticus, and V. vulnificus. Potentially enteropathogenic isolates were detected with biomolecular methods. The overall prevalence of Vibrio spp. was 7.6%. The highest Vibrio prevalence was found in R. decussatus (8.3%). The prevalences of V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus were 2.7 and 4.8%, respectively. Higher prevalences of V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus were found in R. decussatus (4.2%) and C. gigas (6.2%), respectively. Only two pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus strains were recovered (genotypes: tdh− and trh+; tdh+ and trh−), both from M. galloprovincialis. None of the isolates were tdh+ and trh+. Pathogenic Vibrio infections are often underestimated, and human infections are increasing in Europe. European data on the true distribution of Vibrionaceae are scarce, and the results of the present study highlight the need of constant monitoring to update the distribution of pathogenic vibrios.

Vibrio vulnificus é um habitante natural de ambientes marinhos que pode infectar seres humanos através de ferimentos na pele ou pelo consumo de frutos do mar, especialmente ostras consumidas cruas ou mal cozidas. A bactéria pode atravessar a barreira intestinal e alcançar a corrente sanguínea causando septicemia, que pode levar à morte. A hipótese científica deste estudo foi a de que existem cepas potencialmente patogênicas de V. vulnificus, identificadas pelo gene vcgC, nas ostras produzidas no litoral de Santa Catarina. Os objetivos desta tese foram verificar a ocorrência cepas de V. vulnificus com potencial patogenicidade em ostras (Crassostrea gigas) produzidas em Santa Catarina; realizar estudo retrospectivo inédito sobre presença de V. vulnificus e de V. parahaemolyticus na América do Sul; e comparar a performance dos meios de cultivo microbiológico mais comuns para detecção de V. vulnificus quanto a sua capacidade de isolamento e enumeração. A hipótese foi confirmada na análise das amostras coletadas, com confirmação por PCR, indicando a presença de cepas potencialmente patogênicas de V. vulnificus. O estudo de revisão indicou que as infecções causadas por V. parahaemolyticus tem sido mais fortemente relacionadas à ingestão de alimentos de origem marinha e mais frequentes na costa do Oceano Pacífico. Por outro lado, V. vulnificus é mais frequentemente adquirido por contato de lesões de pele e sua presença é mais comum na costa do Oceano Atlântico. Além disso, o estudo indicou que o fenômeno El Niño exerce influência no aumento de casos de V. parahaemolyticus na costa do Pacífico. Entretanto, são necessários mais estudos para confirmar a importância de fatores ambientais na presença e virulência da bactéria nesta região. No Brasil, os casos de infecções causadas por V. vulnificus são restritos basicamente às regiões sul e sudeste, exceto por um caso recente em 2016, na região nordeste do Brasil. Na análise das amostras coletadas, o estudo revelou uma baixa incidência (4%) de V. vulnificus entre as amostras de ostras (C. gigas) durante os meses de outubro/2014 a janeiro/2015, confirmadas por PCR através dos genes vcg. Esta baixa incidência pode ser explicada pela alta salinidade na região, que ultrapassa os valores de 34?. Na análise da performance dos meios usando cepas puras de V. vulnificus de genótipos conhecidos vcgC e vcgE, todos os meios analisados apresentaram performance satisfatória. Com relação à avaliação da performance dos meios para isolamento eenumeração de V. vulnificus em amostras ambientais, o meio CPC+ apresentou a melhor performance. Assim, mesmo tendo em conta a ausência de relatos de casos de infecção humana em Santa Catarina e os fatores ambientais citados, é fundamental a criação de um programa de monitoramento contínuo para avaliar a presença da bactéria, assim como a adoção de um procedimento de comunicação para pessoas portadoras de condições predisponentes e para profissionais de saúde, para que possam orientar seus pacientes e que possam realizar o diagnóstico e consequente tratamento de pessoas acometidas, com a adoção de metodologias mais precisas, rápidas e específicas para detecção de cepas patogênicas, como a detecção do gene vcg por PCR, especialmente no diagnóstico de casos suspeitos, garantindo maior precisão e eficácia de tratamento.

Abstract : Vibrio vulnificus is a natural inhabitant of marine environments that can infect humans through skin wounds or seafood ingestion, especially raw or undercooked shellfish. The bacteria can cross the intestinal barrier and reach the blood stream causing sepsis that can lead to death. The scientific hypothesis of this study was that there are potentially pathogenic strains of V. vulnificus, identified by vcgC gene, on the oysters produced in the coast of Santa Catarina. The objectives of this thesis were to assess the occurrence of potentially pathogenic V. vulnificus strains in oysters (Crassostrea gigas) produced in Santa Catarina; to achieve unprecedented retrospective study on the presence of V. vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus in South America; and compare the performance of the most common media for microbiological culture used to detect V. vulnificus as its isolation and enumeration capacity. The hypothesis was confirmed through the analysis of samples, confirmed by PCR. The review indicated that the infections caused by V. parahaemolyticus have been more closely related to the ingestion of seafood and more frequent in the Pacific Ocean. On the other hand, V. vulnificus is most often acquired by contact of skin lesions and their presence is more common in the Atlantic Ocean. In addition, the study indicated that the El Niño Southern Oscillation influences the increase in cases of V. parahaemolyticus on the Pacific coast. However, more studies are needed to confirm the importance of environmental factors in the presence and virulence of the bacteria in this region. In Brazil, cases of infection caused by V. vulnificus are basically restricted to the southern and southeastern areas, except for a recent case in 2016, in northeastern Brazil. The study revealed a low incidence (4%) of V. vulnificus between oyster samples (C. gigas) produced in Santa Catarina during the months of October/2014 to January/2015, confirmed by PCR using vcg genes. This low rate can be explained by high salinity in the region, which exceeds 34?. In the media performance research using V. vulnificus pure strains with known vcgC and vcgE genotypes, when considering the performance for total V. vulnificus, all analyzed media showed satisfactory performance. Regarding the assessment of the performance of the media for V. vulnificus isolation and enumeration in environmental samples, CPC+ had the best performance. Thus, considering the absence of reported cases of human infection in Santa Catarina and the environmental factors mentioned, the creation of a continuous monitoring program is critical to assess the presence ofbacteria, as well as the adoption of a communication procedure for people with predisposing conditions and health professionals so that they can guide their patients and can make the diagnosis and subsequent treatment of affected people, and to adopt more precise methodologies, for rapid and specific detection of pathogenic strains such as the detection of the vcg gene by PCR, especially in the case of diagnosis of suspected cases, ensuring greater accuracy and efficacy of treatment.

La practica prolongada fue realizada en Departamento de Microbiología de Alimentos del Instituto se Salud Pública de Chile, durante los meses de Junio a Diciembre del año 2005. Mi labor en la práctica constó de tres etapas simultáneas: La primera consistió en recibir capacitación durante todo el período de mi práctica, en detección y cuantificación de los patógenos bacterianos más frecuentes encontrados en alimentos. La segunda etapa fue implementar el último método de detección de Vibrios (principalmente Vibrio vulnificus en mi caso) según el Manual Analítico Bacteriológico (BAM) año 2004 impuesto por la Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) (1), para la cual se utilizaron cepas de diversos Vibrios tales como Vibrio vulnificus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio cholerae, etc. Dicha labor será necesaria para actualizar los métodos de detección en los laboratorios de la red de vigilancia epidemiológica de Chile. En la otra etapa, se evaluó según el método que se estaba desarrollando la población de Vibrio vulnificus existente en Puerto Montt, ésta etapa se comenzó a trabajar a partir aproximadamente en julio ya que primero debía estar desarrollada en alguna medida la técnica de detección, además de que estuvieran los materiales necesarios para el trabajo. Las muestras analizadas son ensayos de rutina que llegan al SEREMI de Salud de la región Metropolitana para evaluar durante todo el año la población de Vibrio parahaemolyticus y Vibrio cholerae en Puerto Montt, las cuales se reciben todos los martes y consta de 5 muestras de los cuales se analizan 12 especimenes de cada una, para luego cuantificarlas por el método de tubos múltiples según la tabla de número más probable (anexo, Tabla 1). Es importante que el ISP, como centro de referencia posea información sobre todo patógeno que pueda ser encontrado en alimentos, es por eso que esta etapa culminará con la entrega del procedimiento de detección de Vibrio vulnificus al Departamento de Microbiología de Alimentos

Abstract:
V. vulnificus is a Gram negative opportunistic pathogen that is ubiquitous in the marine environment. Of the three main biotypes, biotype 1 is most commonly associated with human infection and is the causative agent of septicaemia, gastroenteritis and wound infection. In the United States V. vulnificus is the leading cause of seafood related deaths and is commonly associated with ingestion of raw or undercooked oysters. However, despite the abundant prevalence of this bacterium in the environment, the number of severe human infections is low. This has led to the hypothesis that not all strains of this pathogen are equal in virulence, with some strains better adapted to causing human disease than others. Therefore the current study tested a panel of 10 V. vulnificus strains in several phenotypic experiments that assayed the strains for known virulence factors, with the aim of identifying a marker for strains hazardous to human health. However, not one assay correlated with either virulence potential of the strains, as determined by an in vivo mouse model of virulence, or source of isolation. As the study hypothesised that the varying virulence potentials displayed by the strains may be due to genetic differences, whole genome sequencing (WGS) was performed. Bioinformatic comparison of the strains demonstrated many genetic differences between the strains. However, in unison with the WGS comparison, WGS gene annotation was also performed. This identified the presence of two previously undescribed type 6 secretion systems (T6SS). Therefore the current study continued investigation into the T6SSs. The two T6SSs identified were termed T6SS1 and T6SS2. T6SS2 was found in all sequenced isolates, whereas T6SS1 was only present in a sub-set of strains. As T6SS1 shared synteny with the previously described T6SS in V. cholerae, T6SS1 was chosen for further investigation. During this study T6SS1 was shown to be functional and displayed thermoregulation. Further investigation into T6SS1 by construction and characterising of a T6SS1 mutant, demonstrated that T6SS1 contained anti-prokaryotic properties.

Abstract:
Vibrio vulnificus is a model environmental organism exhibiting a classical starvation response during nutrient limitation as well as a non-culturable state when exposed to low temperatures. In addition to these classic global responses, this organism is an opportunistic pathogen that exhibits numerous virulence factors. This organism was chosen as the model organism for the identification of regulators of the viable but nonculturable response (VBNC) and the starvation-induced maintenance of culturability (SIMC) that occurs when cells are starved prior to low temperature incubation. In order to accomplish this, three indirect approaches were used; proteomics, investigation of intercellular signalling pathways and genetic analysis of regulators involved in these responses. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to identify proteins expressed under conditions that induced SIMC. It was determined that carbon and long-term phosphorus starvation were important in the SIMC response. V. vulnificus was shown to possess genes, luxS and smcR, that are homologues of genes involved in signalling system system 2 in Vibrio harveyi. Signal molecules were produced upon starvation and the entry to stationary phase in V. vulnificus. Furthermore, a null mutation in smcR, a transcriptional regulator was shown to have pleiotropic effects in V. vulnificus, including up-regulation of numerous virulence factors and a defect in starvation survival and development of the SIMC response. We propose that V. vulnificus possesses a signalling system analogous to that of system 2 in V. harveyi, and that this system is involved in the regulation of stationary phase and starvation adaptation in this organism.

Abstract:
Toxic infectious exfoliative conditions include staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome (TSS), streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS), and staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS). All three are mediated by bacterial toxin production and are considerations in the differential diagnosis of a febrile, hypotensive patient with a rash. Meningococcemia is potentially fatal and extremely contagious with a short incubation period. Disseminated gonococcal infection (DGI) presents with tenosynovitis, dermatitis, and polyarthralgias without purulent arthritis or with purulent arthritis but without skin lesions. Ecthyma gangrenosum (EG) is a cutaneous manifestation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) is caused by Rickettsia rickettsii, most commonly transmitted by the American dog tick. Patients present with nonspecific symptoms, such as fever, headache, myalgias, arthralgias, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Finally, vibrio vulnificus is a gram-negative bacterium that causes serious wound infections, sepsis, and diarrhea in patients exposed to shellfish or marine water.
