Identification of a peptide motif that potently inhibits two functionally distinct subunits of Shiga toxin

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Watanabe-Takahashi, Tamada, Senda et al. identify a tetravalent peptide that inhibits Shiga toxin (Stx), a major virulence factor of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli, by targeting its receptor-binding.

Intestinal damage in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli infection [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Nephrology, 2011
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) infection leads to marked intestinal injury. Sigmoid colon obtained from two children during EHEC infection exhibited abundant TUNEL-positive cells. To define which bacterial virulence factors contribute to intestinal injury the presence of Shiga toxin-2 (Stx2), intimin and the type III secretion system were ...

Intimin, tir, and shiga toxin 1 do not influence enteropathogenic responses to shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in bovine ligated intestinal loops [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Shiga toxin-producing Escherchia coli (STEC) comprises a group of attaching and effacing (A/E) enteric pathogens of animals and humans. Natural and experimental infection of calves with STEC may result in acute enteritis or subclinical infection ...

Effect of long-term starvation on the survival, recovery, and carbon utilization profiles of a bovine Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolate from New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The ability to maintain a dual lifestyle of colonizing the ruminant gut and surviving in nonhost environments once shed is key to the success of Escherichia coli O157:H7 as a zoonotic pathogen.

An Epidemic of Bloody Diarrhea: Escherichia coli O157 Emerging in Cameroon?

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 1999
Between November 1997 and April 20, 1998, bloody diarrhea sickened 298 persons in Cameroon. Laboratory investigation of the epidemic (case-fatality rate, 16.4%) documented amoebiasis in one of three patients and three types of pathogens: multidrug ...

Antimicrobial Peptides and Peptidomimetics in Foods – A Synthetic Foray

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This Review discusses AMPs in foods and their syntheses. It espouses facile methods to make them accessible and suggests their utility in the mitigation and eradication of the burgeoning maladies of antimicrobial and multidrug resistance (AMR and MDR).
