Enhanced Hemolytic Activity of Mesophilic Aeromonas salmonicida SRW-OG1 Is Brought about by Elevated Temperatures
Aeromonas salmonicida is a well-known cold-water pathogenic bacterium. Previously, we reported the first isolation of pathogenic A. salmonicida from diseased Epinephelus coioides, a kind of warm-water fish, and it was proved to be a putative mesophilic strain with potent pathogenicity to humans.

description | Aeromonas salmonicida is a well-known cold-water pathogenic bacterium. Previously, we reported the first isolation of pathogenic A. salmonicida from diseased Epinephelus coioides, a kind of warm-water fish, and it was proved to be a putative mesophilic strain with potent pathogenicity to humans. In order to investigate the mechanisms underlying mesophilic growth ability and virulence, the transcriptome of A. salmonicida SRW-OG1 at 18, 28, and 37 °C was analyzed. The transcriptome of A. salmonicida SRW-OG1 at different temperatures showed a clear separation boundary, which might provide valuable information for the temperature adaptation and virulence regulation of A. salmonicida SRW-OG1. Interestingly, aerA and hlyA, the hemolytic genes encoding aerolysin and hemolysin, were found to be significantly up-regulated at 28 and 37 °C. Since aerolysin and hemolysin are the most well-known and -characterized virulence factors of pathogenic Aeromonas strains, the induction of aerA and hlyA was associated with the mesophilic virulence. Further study proved that the extracellular products (ECPs) purchased from A. salmonicida SRW-OG1 cultured at 28 and 37 °C showed elevated hemolytic activity and virulence than those at 18 °C. Moreover, the silence of aerA and hlyA led to significantly decreased hemolysis and virulence. Taken together, our results revealed that the mesophilic virulence of A. salmonicida SRW-OG1 might be due to the enhanced expression of aerA and hlyA induced by elevated temperatures. |
