Virulence regulons of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Immunologic Research, 2013
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli is frequently associated with travelers' diarrhea and is a leading cause of infant and childhood mortality in developing countries. Disease is dependent upon the orchestrated expression of enterotoxins, flexible adhesive pili, and other virulence factors. Both the heat-labile (LT) and heat-stable (ST-H) enterotoxins are

Disruption of transepithelial resistance by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Veterinary Microbiology, 2010
Transepithelial resistance and tight junction protein localization in porcine intestinal epithelial cells were evaluated as a function of infection with porcine enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolates differing in adhesin and enterotoxin profiles. Robust heat-labile enterotoxin-independent reduction of host transepithelial resistance was observed in ...

USE OF ANTISERA FOR IDENTIFICATION OF ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI

The Lancet, 1980
The usual methods for identifying enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains involve testing for production of heat-labile enterotoxins. To simplify the identification of ETEC, antisera against common ETEC O serogropus were used to identify ETEC in the stools from 618 patients with acute diarrhoea and dehydration (greater than or equal to 5% loss ...

Biotyping as a method of screening for enterotoxigenic Escherichia Coli

Pathology, 1987
A scheme of biotyping described originally for E. coli isolated from urine was used to investigate enterotoxigenic (ETEC) and non-enterotoxigenic (non-ETEC) fecal E. coli. Primary biotype was determined by fermentation of raffinose, sorbose and dulcitol and decarboxylation of ornithine. Failure to ferment sorbose correlated best with enterotoxicity; 95.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

2016
Pediatric diarrheal diseases continue to represent a significant health burden in areas of the world with poor sanitation. Hundreds of thousands of deaths, mostly in young children occur each year due to severe acute gastrointestinal disease caused by diverse enteric pathogens. Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a leading cause of childhood gut

ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI AND IDIOPATHIC DIARRHŒA IN BANGLADESH

The Lancet, 1975
Faecal Escherichia coli from Bangalee patients with idiopathic diarrhoea were tested in the Chinese hamster ovary cell (C.H.O.) assay to detect production of thermolabile enterotoxin (L.T.). C.H.O-positive E. coli produce both L.T. and a thermostable toxin (S.T.).

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli Isolated from Food

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1977
Approximately 8% of 240 isolates of Escherichia coli obtained from food of animal origin in the United States were found to be enterotoxigenic, as determined in adrenal cells, rabbit ileal loops, and assays in infant mice. These organisms were of diverse serotypes that are not included among the so-called enteropathogenic serotypes and would not have ...

Molecular Biology of Fimbriae of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

1985
Particular strains of Escherichia coli that produce enterotoxins are an important cause of diarrheal disease in man and domestic animals. The ability of these enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) strains to adhere to the intestinal epithelium is required as an initial step in establishing diarrheal disease.

Molecular mechanisms of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection

Microbes and Infection, 2010
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are a major cause of diarrheal illness in developing countries, and perennially the most common cause of traveller's diarrhea. ETEC constitute a diverse pathotype that elaborate heat-labile and/or heat-stable enterotoxins.

Antitoxin Responses to Infections with Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1974
Titers of antitoxin to the enterotoxins of Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae were determined in acute and convalescent sera from 23 patients with acute choleralike diarrhea in Calcutta, India; the adult rabbit ileal loop model was used for the titration of antitoxin. Six of eight patients harboring enterotoxigenic E.
