This book was released on 2007 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Listeria monocytogenes is an intracellular pathogen commonly associated with ready-to-eat foods. Using the guinea pig model, the impact of environmental factors on the infectivity of L. monocytogenes, as well as the impact of a host's immunity, on the development of listerial infection was investigated. Experiments were conducted to determine whether exposure to food environment and improper handling conditions impact the infectivity of L. monocytogenes. Results indicated that the virulence of L. monocytogenes was not influenced by exposure of the pathogen to food or improper handling conditions. In young adult guinea pigs orally challenged with 102 L. monocytogenes, a 27% infection rate occurred. Further studies were conducted to determine the impact of immunomodulation of a host's immunity on the development of listerial infection using aged guinea pigs. Flow cytometry analysis showed that daily supplementation with vitamin E significantly increased the level of CD8+ T cells, while cyclosporine A (CsA) treatment resulted in a 25% decrease of CD8+ T cells. HPLC analysis showed that short-term supplementation with vitamin E resulted in an overall 1-fold increase in the plasma alpha-tocopherol concentration. In low-dose (102 CFU) challenged animals, 50% of the control-group animals became infected. Only 22% of animals receiving the orthomolecular dose of vitamin E became infected, whereas animals that were immunosuppressed had an infection rate of 89%. In the immunosuppressed group three animals (16%) developed listerial infection with a quantifiable bacterial level of 0.3-3 log CFU g( -1) of organ in the spleen and liver. In the high-dose study, the population of L. monocytogenes was consistently 1 log CFU lower in the spleen and liver of animals in the vitamin E group as compared to the control and CsA-treated groups. The level of L. monocytogenes was not significantly different between the control and CsA-treated groups. The results suggest that immunomodulation of the host can influence listerial infection within an aged population of guinea pigs. From a public health perspective, the research indicates that a low oral dose of L. monocytogenes may pose a human health risk.
