Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Raoultella orithinolytica is a member of Enterobacteriaceae, which widely distributes the environment including human intestine. In this study, we revealed the mechanism of histamine production in R. ornithinolytica strain AA097. We found that histamine production in R. orithinolytica is under coordinate positive regulation by CRP and Fis. The histamine-producing R. orithinolytica stimurated colonic epithelial cell growth in germ-free mice. We disclosed that histamine plays a role in oxidative stress response in R. orithinolytica.
