摘要

In Mexico, diarrheal disease due to different serotypes of Escherichia coli is highly prevalent, with only sporadic isolation of O157 non-H7 strains. This could be due to exposure to the O157 or related E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS), such as O7 or O116, at an early age. By using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting, the present study analyzed 605 serum samples from Mexican adults and infants without clinical symptoms of disease for the presence of antibodies to these three E. coli LPSs. The bactericidal activities of homologous and heterologous rabbit and human serum samples against O7, O116, and O157 E. coli LPSs were also determined. By using a cutoff point of 0.7, it was found by the ELISAs that 28 of 562 (5%) of the serum samples from adolescents and adults and 2 of 43 (5%) of the serum samples from infants less than 1 year of age reacted with the O157 LPS. By using cutoff points between 0.4 and 0.699, the proportion of serum samples from both age groups that reacted with the O157 LPS increased to 20%. Western blotting analysis of selected serum samples that showed an intermediate response against the O157 LPS by the ELISAs showed that 61 of 88 (69%) reacted with the same LPS. A similar result was observed for maternal milk samples. The bactericidal activities of rabbit serum samples against the O7, O116, and O157 LPSs showed that they were positive for both homologous and heterologous antigens. Similar results were observed with the human serum samples. O157 non-H7 strains were identified in only 10% of the E. coli strains isolated from 263 Mexican children with and without diarrhea over the past 15 years. This absence of O157:H7 strains in Mexico may be associated with the presence of antibodies against O157 or related E. coli LPSs.
