Haemophilus parasuis cytolethal distending toxin induces cell cycle arrest and p53-dependent apoptosis.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Haemophilus parasuis is the causative agent of Glasser's disease in pigs. Cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) is an important virulence factor of H. parasuis.

Evidence for the presence of a receptor for the cytolethal distending toxin (CLDT) of Campylobacter jejuni on CHO and HeLa cell membranes and development of a receptor-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of CLDT

, 1993
Using ligand blotting, it was found that partially purified cytolethal distending toxin prepared from and enterotoxigenic strain of Campylobacter jejuni, bound to two peptides of molecular masses of approximately 59 kDa and 45 kDa and to a single peptide

Genetically similar strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolated from sheep, cattle and human patients [PDF]

, 2012
Conclusions: The same pathogenic subtypes of VTEC O157:H7, including the highly virulent clade 8, appear to be present in both sheep and cattle in Sweden, suggesting strains can circulate freely between ruminant ...

The Draft Genome Sequence of the Yersinia entomophaga Entomopathogenic Type Strain MH96T

Toxins, 2016
Here we report the draft genome of Yersinia entomophaga type strain MH96T. The genome shows 93.8% nucleotide sequence identity to that of Yersinia nurmii type strain APN3a-cT, and comprises a single chromosome of approximately 4,275,531 bp.

The cytolethal distending toxin contributes to microbial virulence and disease pathogenesis by acting as a tri-perditious toxin

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
This review summarizes the current status and recent advances in our understanding of the role that the cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) plays as a virulence factor in promoting disease by toxin-producing pathogens.

Cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt)-producing escherichia coli isolated from a child with bloody diarrhea in Japan

, 2007
In a retrospective analysis by PCR, the cdtI gene encoding the cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) was detected in Escherichia coli O2:H12 strain isolated from the bloody diarrheal stool specimen of a child.

Cholesterol-Rich Membrane Microdomains Mediate Cell Cycle Arrest Induced by Actinobacillus Actinomycetemcomitans Cytolethal-Distending Toxin [PDF]

, 2006
We have previously shown that Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans cytolethal-distending toxin (Cdt) is a potent immunosuppressive agent that induces G2/M arrest in human lymphocytes.
