研究興趣
本實驗室主要研究創傷弧菌生物一型和生物二型菌株分別在人類和鰻魚的致病機制。我們運用細菌遺傳學和基因體學技術,搜尋該菌可能之毒力基因及調控毒力表現之調控子,再以分離及分析特定基因刪除突變株在實驗動物之毒力,以確認標的基因與毒力之關連,並進一步研究該基因在致病過程中所扮演之角色,藉以了解此菌在人或鰻魚造成疾病之機制。透過這些研究,我們發現由毒素所媒介之細胞毒殺性在小鼠的感染模式中,與生物一型菌株在感染部位之繁殖能力,進而與其對小鼠的毒力相關;生物二型菌株的毒素也與該菌對鰻魚之毒力相關。生物二型菌株均含有一個大約 67 kb 的質體,與此型細菌在鰻魚血液中的存活相關,而為此菌對鰻魚之毒力所必需。
