Characterizing RecA-Independent Induction of Shiga toxin2-encoding Phages by EDTA Treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The bacteriophage life cycle has an important role in Shiga toxin (Stx) expression. The induction of Shiga toxin-encoding phages (Stx phages) increases toxin production as a result of replication of the phage genome, and phage lysis of the host cell also

Intimin, tir, and shiga toxin 1 do not influence enteropathogenic responses to shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in bovine ligated intestinal loops [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Shiga toxin-producing Escherchia coli (STEC) comprises a group of attaching and effacing (A/E) enteric pathogens of animals and humans. Natural and experimental infection of calves with STEC may result in acute enteritis or subclinical infection ...

Isolation, characterization, and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of Escherichia coli O157:H7 from foods of bovine origin in Mekelle, Tigray, Ethiopia

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an emerging and major zoonotic foodborne pathogen. It has an increasing concern about the spread of antimicrobial-resistant strains. This study aimed to isolate and characterize Shiga toxin-producing E.

Pathogenic Potential to Humans of Bovine Escherichia coli O26, Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Escherichia coli O26 and O157 have similar overall prevalences in cattle in Scotland, but in humans, Shiga toxin–producing E. coli O26 infections are fewer and clinically less severe than E. coli O157 infections.

Mild Illness during Outbreak of Shiga Toxin−Producing Escherichia coli O157 Infections Associated with Agricultural Show, Australia

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
During a large outbreak of Shiga toxin−producing Escherichia coli illness associated with an agricultural show in Australia, we used whole-genome sequencing to detect an IS1203v insertion in the Shiga toxin 2c subunit A gene of Shiga toxin−producing E ...

Fatal Meningitis from Shiga Toxin–Producing Escherichia coli in 2 Full-Term Neonates, France

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
We report fatal meningitis in 2 neonates in France caused by Shiga toxin 1–producing Escherichia coli. Virulence factors capsular K1 antigen and salmochelin were present in both strains, potentially representing a new hybrid pathotype. Clinicians should
