    Abstract: We previously showed that cationic liposomes composed of cholesteryl-3β-carboxyamidoethylene-N-hydroxyethylamine (OH-Chol) and 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) inhibited mast cell degranulation mediated by the cross-linking of ... ...

    Abstract We previously showed that cationic liposomes composed of cholesteryl-3β-carboxyamidoethylene-N-hydroxyethylamine (OH-Chol) and 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) inhibited mast cell degranulation mediated by the cross-linking of high-affinity IgE receptors (FcεRI). In this study, we prepared three kinds of cationic liposomes composed of OH-Chol and DOPE in different ratios (0.28, 0.60, and 0.86 of OH-Chol in mol ratio, named as L-liposome, M-liposome, and H-liposome, respectively) and investigated their effects on mast cell activation. We found that mast cell degranulation evoked with antigen was inhibited by pretreatment with cationic liposomes in the composite ratio-dependent manner of OH-Chol and that the H-liposome showed the highest inhibitory effect on degranulation among three kinds of liposomes.

    Abstract The grouping method for isolated strains from foods using single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) after PCR amplification of a portion of 16S rDNA was developed. This method was able to group the strains from various food samples based on 16S rDNA sequence. As 97.8% of the isolated strains from various foods were grouped correctly, use of the PCR-SSCP method enables the prompt and labor-saving analysis of microbial population of food-derived bacterial strains. Advantages in speed and accuracy of bacterial population identification by the PCR-SSCP method have practical application for food suppliers and testing laboratories.

    Abstract Development of rapid and simple typing methods is required for analyzing the distribution and contamination routes of food-borne pathogens. We established a simple typing method for Listeria monocytogenes using MLSSCP (Multilocus Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism) analysis. Four virulence genes, hlyA, iap, actA and inlB were amplified by PCR, digested with endonucleases and applied to gels for SSCP. As banding patterns have been shown to reflect even a single nucleotide difference, this method has a potential discriminatory power comparable to that of sequencing analysis. The 64 strains isolated from five meat processing plants were divided into 18 groups by this MLSSCP. Additionally, clustering obtained with this method showed strong correspondence with phylogenetic lineages I and II, and was achieved with much less expenditure in time and cost than is required for other methods, such as MLST. The validity of the MLSSCP lineage classification was confirmed by PFGE, AFLP and ribotyping results. This newly developed MLSSCP method is suitable when obtaining accurate results quickly and simply is crucial.
