Structure of the Claudin-binding Domain of Clostridium perfringens Enterotoxin [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2008
Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin is a common cause of food-borne and antibiotic-associated diarrhea. The toxin's receptors on intestinal epithelial cells include claudin-3 and -4, members of a large family of tight junction proteins. Toxin-induced cytolytic pore formation requires residues in the NH(2)-terminal half, whereas residues near the COOH ...

Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles in Biomedical Research and Clinical Translation

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 4, April 2026.
Bacterial membrane vesicle biomedical applications. ABSTRACT Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles (bEVs) are lipid (single‐ or double‐bilayer) nanostructures secreted by virtually all bacteria that play fundamental roles in intercellular communication and have emerged as powerful, multifunctional tools in biomedicine. Their intrinsic ability to encapsulate

Clostridium perfringens type A isolates carrying the plasmid-borne enterotoxin gene (genotypes IS1151-cpe or IS1470-like-cpe) are a common cause of food poisonings. [PDF]

, 2007
The prevalences of various genotypes of enterotoxin gene-carrying (cpe-positive) Clostridium perfringens type A in 24 different food poisoning outbreaks were 75% (chromosomal IS1470-cpe), 21% (plasmid-borne IS1470-like-cpe), and 4% (plasmid-borne IS1151 ...

Identification of an Important Orphan Histidine Kinase for the Initiation of Sporulation and Enterotoxin Production by Clostridium perfringens Type F Strain SM101

mBio, 2019
Clostridium perfringens type F strains cause a common human foodborne illness and many cases of nonfoodborne human gastrointestinal diseases. Sporulation plays two critical roles during type F enteric disease.

EHD4 and ASAP2 are critical negative regulators of the claudin‐5‐based endothelial barrier

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 7, Page 2067-2085, April 2026.
Cell‐surface CLDN‐5 protein levels can be evaluated using a probe that can bind to the extracellular domains of CLDN‐5. A probe derived from Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin allows us to isolate cells with high CLDN‐5 protein levels from a knockout cell library.

Comparison of toxicity neutralization-, ELISA- and PCR tests for typing of Clostridium perfringens and detection of the enterotoxin gene by PCR [PDF]

, 1996
A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed for the specific amplification of a part of each of the five Clostridium perfringens toxin genes: alpha (alpha), beta (beta), epsilon (epsilon), iota (iota), and enterotoxin (CPE).

Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin in antibiotic-associated diarrhea

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2008
Clostridium perfringens type A is associated with 5-20% cases of antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) even though Clostridium difficile is implicated in the most severe cases. Fecal specimens from one hundred hospitalized patients, who developed diarrhea regardless of antibiotic intake and who were negative for C.

Use of Dogs as an Assay for Clostridium perfringens Enterotoxin [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1972
Three techniques for using the dog as an assay organism for Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin are described. These are believed to be more convenient than ligated ileal-loop procedures.

Risk assessment of the production of seaweed in the Netherlands; food safety and nature

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Seaweed is seen as an important source of alternative proteins for a sustainable food system and food security. The cultivation of seaweed is therefore encouraged by the European Union (EU) and also by the Dutch government.In the Netherlands, seaweed is farmed on small scale in the Southwest Delta, the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Despite the
