Pathogenesis of experimental murine congenital listeriosis
The facultative intracellular gram-positive bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne pathogen of frequently understimated importance. Pregnant women represent the high-risk group for L. monocytogenes infection. Abortion, stillbirth or neonatal infection can be the serious outcome of such an infection. Recovery from listeriosis, resistance mechanisms of the host and the effect of L. monocytogenes on fetal development still remain to be fully understood. The results of our experiments showed an increased susceptibility of gestating BALB/c mice to primary L. monocytogenes infection. The duration of listeriosis in gestating animals was almost twice longer than in the control group. Furthermore, it was clearly shown that the detrimental effect of L. monocytogenes on fetal development was more pronounced if the infection was acquired earlier during gestation.
