Bacterial Toxin Modulation of the Eukaryotic Cell Cycle: Are all Cytolethal Distending Toxins Created Equally?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
The cytolethal distending toxins (CDTs) comprise a family of intracellular-acting bacterial protein toxins whose actions upon eukaryotic cells result in several consequences, the most characteristic of which is the induction of G2/M cell cycle arrest ...

A plasmid-mediated type III secretion system associated with invasiveness and diarrheagenicity of Providencia rustigianii

open access: yesmBio
We have recently described a clinical isolate of Providencia rustigianii strain JH-1 carrying the genes for cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) in a conjugative plasmid.

Internalization of the Active Subunit of the Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Cytolethal Distending Toxin Is Dependent upon Cellugyrin (Synaptogyrin 2), a Host Cell Non-Neuronal Paralog of the Synaptic Vesicle Protein, Synaptogyrin 1

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
The Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) is a heterotrimeric AB2 toxin capable of inducing lymphocytes, and other cell types, to undergo cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

The Cytolethal Distending Toxin Subunit CdtB of Helicobacter hepaticus Promotes Senescence and Endoreplication in Xenograft Mouse Models of Hepatic and Intestinal Cell Lines

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Cytolethal distending toxins (CDTs) are common among pathogenic bacteria of the human and animal microbiota. CDTs exert cytopathic effets, via their active CdtB subunit.

Genotoxicity of Cytolethal Distending Toxin (CDT) on isogenic human colorectal cell lines: potential promoting effects for colorectal carcinogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
The composition of the human microbiota influences tumorigenesis, notably in colorectal cancer (CRC). Pathogenic Escherichia coli possesses a variety of virulent factors, among them the Cytolethal Distending Toxin (CDT).

Perinuclear Localization of Internalized Outer Membrane Vesicles Carrying Active Cytolethal Distending Toxin from Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

open access: yes, 2012
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is implicated in aggressive forms of periodontitis. Similarly to several other Gram-negative species, this organism produces and excretes a cytolethal distending toxin (CDT), a genotoxin associated with ...

Structural and functional analysis of Helicobacter hepaticus cytolethal distending toxin

open access: yes, 2009
Helicobacter hepaticus (H. hepaticus) the prototype for enterohepatic Helicobacter species (EHS), colonizes the lower intestinal and hepatobiliary tract of mice and causes typhlocolitis, hepatitis, and hepatocellular carcinoma in susceptible mouse ...
