| Abstract | Aeromonads are considered potential pathogens for humans and animals and are responsible for the etiology of intestinal and extraintestinal diseases. The presence of Aeromonas spp. in food and water shows that it is an important vehicle of infection in humans. The pathology caused by these bacteria involves several virulence factors, such as the ability to produce toxins, adhesion and invasion. The present study investigated the interaction of five Aeromonas caviae strains isolated from human diarrheic faeces with rabbit ileal and colonic mucosa ex vivo, using in vitro organ culture model. The in vitro adhesion assays using cultured tissue were performed with A. caviae strains co-incubated with intestinal fragments of ileum and colon over a period of 6 h. The fragments were analyzed by light and electron microscopy. All strains adhered to rabbit ileal and colonic mucosa ex vivo, with higher degree of adherence presented on colonic mucosa. The typical aggregative adherence pattern was observed among strains studied. Through electron and light microscopy, we observed extensive colonization of ileal and colonic mucosa, large mucus production, biofilm formation and morphological alterations such as intense vacuolization, structural disorganization, cell extrusion and destruction of the villi. These results demonstrate that in vitro organ culture of intestinal mucosa from rabbit may be used to investigate Aeromonas spp. pathogenesis. Finally, our results support the pathogenic potential of Aeromonas emphasising their importance in public health. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
