Tea polyphenols inhibit the growth and virulence of ETEC K88

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2021
Diarrhea caused by Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) causes high levels of morbidity and mortality in neonatal piglets. Owing to the abuse of antibiotics and emergence of drug resistance, antibiotics are no longer considered only beneficial, but also potentially harmful drugs.

Effect of β-glucans on an ETEC infection in piglets

Veterinary Immunology and Immunopathology, 2009
The effect of orally administered beta-glucans in protecting pigs against an ETEC infection after weaning was analysed in this study. Three beta-glucans that differed in origin (Saccharomyces cerevisiae (MCG (Macrogard) and G2) or Sclerotium rolfsii (G3)) and/or extraction procedure were tested.

Isolation of coliphages specific to enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC)

Journal of Environmental Monitoring, 2000
Bacteriophages specific to Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) are reported for the first time. Out of 15 isolated phages only 10 were specific to strains of ETEC. All ten phages of dsDNA could be grouped into three different genotypes based on their RAPD patterns observed and it is likellly that they belong to only 3 different strains.

Escherichia Coli: EAEC, EHEC, EIEC, ETEC

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1999
There are at least four different ways in which E. coli can cause diarrheal disease: invasion of the intestinal epithelium, enterotoxin production, STx production, and adherence with disruption of the normal functioning of the intestinal epithelium. Fecally contaminated food and water are the source of E. coli infections in humans.

Receptor for the F4 fimbriae of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC)

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2015
Infection with F4(+) enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) responsible for diarrhea in neonatal and post-weaned piglets leads to great economic losses in the swine industry. These pathogenic bacteria express either of three fimbrial variants F4ab, F4ac, and F4ad, which have long been known for their importance in host infection and initiating ...

Colonization factors of human enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC)

Trends in Microbiology, 1996
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is the most common cause of childhood and travellers' diarrhoea. The ability of ETEC to adhere to the intestinal epithelium of the host is an important virulence determinant, and adhesion is mediated by proteinaceous surface appendages called colonization factors.

Protective anti-ETEC antibody

2020
This disclosure relates to an antibody that can protect against ETEC infection in a passive immunization set up. More specifically, it relates to a VHH grafted on an IgA scaffold and produced in plant seeds. When the seeds are given in food or feed, the subject is protected against ETEC infection.

Virulence factors, pathogenesis and vaccine protection in cholera and ETEC diarrhea

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2005
Recent work has provided new insights into the pathogenesis of the potentially life-threatening diarrheas caused by Vibrio cholerae and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC): a new mechanism (post-translational degradation), which is involved in the control of cholera toxin expression, has been discovered.

Effects of Shigella-, Campylobacter- and ETEC-associated Diarrhea on Childhood Growth

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2014
Studies examining the etiology-specific effects of diarrheal disease on growth are limited and variable in their analytic methods, making comparisons difficult and priority setting based on these findings challenging. A study by Black et al (Black RE, Brown KH, Becker S.
