Dietary supplementation of natural tannin relieved intestinal injury and oxidative stress in piglets challenged with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2023
This study is to explore the effects of natural tannin (NBT) on intestinal injury in piglets challenged with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). Thirty-two 7-day-old piglets were divided into four groups: I) control group, piglets were fed a basic ...

An Attenuated Escherichia coli K88ac LT(S63K)ΔSTb Efficiently Provides Protection Against Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in the Mouse Model

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
To develop an attenuated vaccine candidate against K88ac enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), a novel Escherichia coli (E. coli) K88ac LT(S63K)ΔSTb with LT(S63K) mutation and ST1 deletion was generated using site mutagenesis and λ-Red homologous ...

Comparative genomics and transcriptomics of Escherichia coli isolates carrying virulence factors of both enteropathogenic and enterotoxigenic E. coli [PDF]

, 2017
Escherichia coli that are capable of causing human disease are often classified into pathogenic variants (pathovars) based on their virulence gene content. However, disease-associated hybrid E.

Vaccines against enterotoxigenicEscherichia coli

Expert Review of Vaccines, 2008
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of diarrhea among children less than 3 years of age in developing countries and in travelers to these areas. The key pathogenic mechanisms that contribute to the pathogenesis of ETEC are the production of colonization factors (CFs) and a heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) and/or a heat-stable ...

Epidemic Diarrhea due to Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2006
In June 1998, we investigated one of the largest foodborne outbreaks of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli gastroenteritis reported in the United States.We conducted cohort studies of 11 catered events to determine risk factors for illness. We used stool cultures, polymerase chain reaction, and serologic tests to determine the etiologic agent, and we ...

A CssA, CssB and LTB chimeric protein induces protection against Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014
Objectives: Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), a major cause of diarrhea in children under 5, is an important agent for traveler's diarrhea. Heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) and colonization factors (CFs) are two main virulence mechanisms in ETEC.

Dynamic interactions of a conserved enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli adhesin with intestinal mucins govern epithelium engagement and toxin delivery [PDF]

, 2016
At present, there is no vaccine for enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), an important cause of diarrheal illness. Nevertheless, recent microbial pathogenesis studies have identified a number of molecules produced by ETEC that contribute to its ...

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in veterinary medicine

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2005
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) infection is the most common type of colibacillosis of young animals (primarily pigs and calves), and it is a significant cause of diarrhoea among travellers and children in the developing world. The main virulence attributes of ETEC are adhesins and enterotoxins, which are mostly regulated on large plasmids ...
