Effects of Bile Acids and Nisin on the Production of Enterotoxin by Clostridium perfringens in a Nutrient-Rich Medium

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, 2018
Clostridium perfringens is the second most common cause of bacterial foodborne illness in the United States, with nearly a million cases each year. C. perfringens enterotoxin (CPE), produced during sporulation, damages intestinal epithelial cells by pore

Staphylococcus aureus CC30 Lineage and Absence of sed,j,r-Harboring Plasmid Predict Embolism in Infective Endocarditis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Staphylococcus aureus induces severe infective endocarditis (IE) where embolic complications are a major cause of death. Risk factors for embolism have been reported such as a younger age or larger IE vegetations, while methicillin resistance conferred ...

Expression of Staphylococcal Enterotoxins under Stress Encountered during Food Production and Preservation

open access: yesToxins, 2017
Staphylococcal food poisoning (SFP) is the most prevalent cause of food-borne intoxications worldwide. Consumption of enterotoxins preformed in food causes violent vomiting and can be fatal in children and the elderly.

Characterization of Virulence Factors in Enterotoxin-Producing Staphylococcus aureus from Bulk Tank Milk

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Staphylococcus aureus, a persistent mastitis-causing pathogen, produces various virulence factors, including enterotoxins. This study analyzed the genetic characteristics of bovine-mastitis-related virulence factors to evaluate the potential pathogenesis

The arteriolar vasodilatation model of vibrio cholerae induced diarrhoeal disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Secretory diarrhoeal disease caused by enterotoxins produced by pathogenic bacteria is characterised by severe fluid loss into the intestine. A prevalent explanation for such high rates of loss, such as occur in episodes of cholera, is that intestinal ...

Sequence Variability in Staphylococcal Enterotoxin Genes seb, sec, and sed

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Ingestion of staphylococcal enterotoxins preformed by Staphylococcus aureus in food leads to staphylococcal food poisoning, the most prevalent foodborne intoxication worldwide. There are five major staphylococcal enterotoxins: SEA, SEB, SEC, SED, and SEE.

The Biochemical Activity of Enterotoxin and Non-Enterotoxin Producing Staphylococci

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Scandinavica, 1977
One hundred and sixty-nine staphylococcal strains of human origin have been tested for production of enterotoxin A, B or Ci, coagulase activity, DNase activity, typical growth on ETGP-agar, hemolysin production and the breakdown of mannitol under aerobic conditions.

Prevalence and Genetic Diversity of Toxin Genes in Clinical Isolates of Clostridium perfringens: Coexistence of Alpha-Toxin Variant and Binary Enterotoxin Genes (bec/cpile)

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) is responsible for food-borne gastroenteritis and other infectious diseases, and toxins produced by this bacterium play a key role in pathogenesis. Although various toxins have been described for C.

Apoptosis-mediated inhibition of human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia upon treatment with Staphylococus Aureus enterotoxin-superantigen

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Patients with relapsed T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) have limited therapeutic options and poor prognosis. The finding of efficient strategies against this refractory neoplasm is a medical priority.
