Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Shiga toxin is the main virulence factor of non-invasive enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli strains capable of causing hemolytic uremic syndrome. Our group has previously shown that the toxin can reach the kidney within microvesicles where it is taken up

Eculizumab in the treatment of Shiga toxin haemolytic uraemic syndrome
Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, West), 2018 Haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) remains a leading cause of paediatric acute kidney injury (AKI). Haemolytic uraemic syndrome is characterised by the triad of microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia, thrombocytopenia and AKI.

Characterization of Shigella dysenteriae 1 (Shiga) toxin purified by anti-Shiga toxin affinity chromatography [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1980 Shigella dysenteriae 1 (Shiga) toxin was purified from whole-cell lysates by antitoxin affinity column chromatography, radioiodination, and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration of 125I-labeled affinity column eluates. Two chromatographic peaks were observed. The percentage of radioactivity in peak I samples immunoprecipitated with antitoxin ranged from 95 to

Occurrence and characterization of shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in raw meat, raw milk, and street vended juices in Bangladesh [PDF]
, 2010 The major objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of Shiga toxin (Stx)–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in different types of food samples and to compare their genetic relatedness with STEC strains previously isolated from animal ...
