洱源、怒江猫源弓形虫虫株的分离与鉴定

Isolation and Identification of Toxoplasma gondii Isolates from Cats in Eryuan and Nujiang

为了分离猫源弓形虫,本试验从云南洱源、怒江两地区捕捉18只野猫,取其心脏、肝脏、肺脏、脑组织用盐酸—胃蛋白酶溶液消化处理后,腹腔接种小白鼠,将分离到的弓形虫虫株至少传3代,用特异PCR方法对所分离的虫株进行鉴定。结果表明,从18只野猫的样品中分离出3株弓形虫虫株,用特异性引物对3株虫株进行PCR鉴定,均得到弓形虫的特异性目的条带,测序结果表明所扩增出的DNA片段确为弓形虫核糖体B1基因部分序列。同源性比对分析结果显示分离株与T.gondii B1的同源性为100.0%。将动物组织用盐酸—胃蛋白酶溶液消化处理后腹腔接种小白鼠是一种分离弓形虫虫株较理想的方法,对弓形虫B1基因进行特异性扩增,可以快速地鉴定弓形虫虫株。

The assay was aimed to isolate Toxoplasma gondii（T.gondii）strains from stray cat in Eryuan and Nujiang of Yunnan province.The cat tissues（heart,liver,lung and brain）were digested by acid pepsin solution,intraperitoneally inoculated in Kunming mice,passaged at least 3generations,and followed by specific PCR amplification of partial B1 gene using species-specific primers.Three T.gondii isolates were isolated from 18 stray cats,PCR result showed that we got the specific target band,and the sequence result of the specific PCR product showed that it was ribosome B1 gene sequence of T.gondii.Homology comparison analysis showed that the isolates was100.0% homology with T.gondii B1.The method of inoculation into the mice with the tissues that was digested by acid pepsin solution was an effective way to isolate T.gondii strain from animals,and the specific PCR assay was an accurate method for the rapid identification of T.gondii.
