Background/Aim: Poisonous molecules produced by bacteria inside or outside the organisms are generally called "toxins". The ability of bacteria to synthesize toxins is called "toxicity". Toxigenicity is an important factor that increases the virulence of bacteria.

Bacterial Toxins and Diarrhoea
Clinics in Gastroenterology, 1986Bacteria and their toxins are responsible for an enormous burden of diarrhoeal disease. Knowledge about the toxins and their mechanisms of action is limited. Thus, although considerable information is available about the mechanism of action of cholera toxin and a small number of heat-stable enterotoxins, information on the role and action of many ...

Pathogenic bacteria and higher eukaryotes have spent a long time together, leading to a precise understanding of one another's way of functioning. Through rapid evolution, bacteria have engineered increasingly sophisticated weapons to hit exactly where it hurts, interfering with fundamental host functions.

Bacterial Toxins as Immunomodulators
2009Bacterial toxins are the causative agent at pathology in a variety of diseases. Although not always the primary target of these toxins, many have been shown to have potent immunomodulatory effects, for example, inducing immune responses to co-administered antigens and suppressing activation of immune cells.

Many bacterial toxins are proteins, encoded by the bacterial chromosomal genes, plasmids or phages. Lysogenic phages form part of the chromosome. The toxins are usually liberated from the organism by lysis, but some are shed with outer membrane proteins in outer membrane vesicles. An important non-protein toxin is lipopolysaccharide or endotoxin, which

Genetic Detoxification of Bacterial Toxins
2003Several pathogens, such as Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Clostridium tetani, Bordetella pertussis, Vibrio cholerae, enterotoxigenic Escherichia co1i (1), and even some emerging pathogens, such as Helicobacter pylori (2), produce potent toxins that are responsible for the pathology caused by the bacterium.
