Altering Trends in the Dominance of Shigella flexneri Serotypes and Emergence of Serologically Atypical S. flexneri Strains in Dhaka, Bangladesh [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2001
ABSTRACT Of 469 recently isolated Shigella flexneri strains, 452 agglutinated with Shigella flexneri -specific monoclonal antibodies. Of these, 396 could be assigned to 10 of the currently recognized 15 serotypes, with S. flexneri 2b dominating (23.2%).

Host response to bacteria induces a shift towards the enteroendocrine cell lineage in the murine enteroid model. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
The host response to commensal and pathogenic bacteria has been extensively characterized using human cancer cell line models but remains less defined in primary intestinal cellular systems. Recent evidence has demonstrated that mice lacking the Nod-like
