ASSOCIATED PROFILES OF VIRULENCE GENE MARKERS IN CLOSTRIDIUM PERFRINGENS STRAINS ISOLATED FROM HEALTHY AND DISEASED BROILER CHICKENS WITH NECROTIC ENTERITIS

open access: yesAssiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2009
Clostridium perfringens induced necrotic enteritis (NE) and subclinical disease have become important threats to poultry health and is one of the main causes of losses in broiler flocks due to high mortalities and reduction in growth rate as well as ...

Anticoccidial Vaccination Is Associated with Improved Intestinal Health in Organic Chickens

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
Eimeria spp. and Clostridium perfringens (CP) are pathogens associated with coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis (NE) in broiler chickens. In this study we evaluated the effect of anticoccidial vaccination on intestinal health in clinically healthy organic

NetB toxin transcription is not influenced by DON.

open access: yes, 2014
Transcription level of netB toxin was analysed by qRT-PCR of C. perfringens strain 56 RNA samples collected from in vitro culture material in the mid (after 3 h incubation) and late logarithmic (after 6 h incubation) growth phase. C.

Identification of novel pathogenicity loci in Clostridium perfringens strains that cause avian necrotic enteritis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Type A Clostridium perfringens causes poultry necrotic enteritis (NE), an enteric disease of considerable economic importance, yet can also exist as a member of the normal intestinal microbiota.

Genomic analysis on broiler-associated Clostridium perfringens strains and exploratory caecal microbiome investigation reveals key factors linked to poultry necrotic enteritis

open access: yesAnimal Microbiome, 2019
Background Clostridium perfringens is a key pathogen in poultry-associated necrotic enteritis (NE). To date there are limited Whole Genome Sequencing based studies describing broiler-associated C. perfringens in healthy and diseased birds.

The successful experimental induction of necrotic enteritis in chickens by Clostridium perfringens: a critical review

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2012
Necrotic enteritis (NE) is one of the most important enteric diseases in poultry and is a high cost to the industry worldwide. It is caused by avian-specific, Necrotic Enteritis Beta toxin (NetB)-producing, strains of Clostridium perfringens that also ...

Mechanisms of Action and Cell Death Associated with Clostridium perfringens Toxins

open access: yesToxins, 2018
Clostridium perfringens uses its large arsenal of protein toxins to produce histotoxic, neurologic and intestinal infections in humans and animals. The major toxins involved in diseases are alpha (CPA), beta (CPB), epsilon (ETX), iota (ITX), enterotoxin (

Gas phase characterization of the noncovalent quaternary structure of Cholera toxin and the Cholera toxin B subunit pentamer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cholera toxin (CTx) is an AB5 cytotonic protein that has medical relevance in cholera and as a novel mucosal adjuvant. Here, we report an analysis of the noncovalent homopentameric complex of CTx B chain (CTx B5) using electrospray ionization triple ...

Detection of Clostridium perfringens types through genetic profiling and mouse neutralisation test

open access: yesBulgarian Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2023
The aim of this study was to detect the types of C. perfringens using PCR and mouse neutralisation test (MNT) and find the genetic profile of virulence factors tpeL and netB isolated from animal samples in Iran. For this purpose, 46 C.
