RtxA1-Induced Expression of the Small GTPase Rac2 Plays a Key Role in the Pathogenicity of Vibrio vulnificus

Infection with the human pathogen Vibrio vulnificus leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) via NAD(P)H oxidase (Nox) in host cells. In the present study, we employed mutant V. vulnificus strains to identify an essential virulence factor responsible for this ROS generation. We found...

description Infection with the human pathogen Vibrio vulnificus leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) via NAD(P)H oxidase (Nox) in host cells. In the present study, we employed mutant V. vulnificus strains to identify an essential virulence factor responsible for this ROS generation. We found that repeats-in-toxin A1 (RtxA1) expressed by V. vulnificus acts via Nox1 to induce significant ROS generation in the intestine epithelial cells, which ultimately results in cell death. Furthermore, RtxA1 modulates the small GTPase Rac2, which is known to play an important role in the activation of Nox. When mice were infected by the oral method, in contrast with the wild-type bacteria, an RtxA1-deficient V. vulnificus mutant was unable to induce ROS generation within the intestine and failed to cause death. These findings strongly suggest that RtxA1-induced Rac2 expression is a critical step underlying the pathogenicity of V. vulnificus
