Shiga Toxin 1a Blunts Shiga Toxin 2a-pathogenic Effects in Blood
ABSTRACT Once released into human blood, Shiga toxins (Stx) interact with platelets and leukocytes, stimulating them to form aggregates and to release pathogenic extracellular vesicles (EV) containing Stx. These EV are considered the trigger driving the transition from bloody diarrhea to the life-threatening hemolytic uremic syndrome (

Shiga toxin (Stx), the main virulence factor of Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), was first discovered in Shigella dysenteriae strains. While several other bacterial species have since been reported to produce Stx, STEC poses the most significant ...

Quantifying Protein–Glycan Interactions Using Native Mass Spectrometry
ABSTRACT Interactions between glycan‐binding proteins (GBPs) and carbohydrates (glycans) are essential to many biological processes relevant to human health and disease. For most GBPs, however, their glycan interactome—the repertoire of glycans recognized and their specificities—is poorly defined.

Immunomodulation by shiga toxin 2 [PDF]
The Shiga-like toxins have DNA sequence homology to the toxins accountable for the dysentery brought about by the Shigella species. Escherichia coli which encode and produce shiga-like toxins are referred to as shiga toxin-producing E.

ABSTRACT Isoflavones, secondary metabolites with numerous health benefits, are predominantly found in legume seeds, especially soybean; however, their contents in domesticated soybean seeds are highly variable. Wild soybeans are known for higher seed isoflavone contents than cultivars. Here we used experimental and modelling approaches on wild soybean (

Genetic and Chemical Genetic Approaches to Shiga Toxin Inhibition
Infection with Shiga toxin-producing bacteria can place patients at risk of developing hemolytic uremic syndrome, a toxemic condition characterized by hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure.

Shiga toxins (Stx) are cytotoxins involved in severe human intestinal disease. These toxins are commonly found in Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1 and Shiga-toxin–producing Escherichia coli; however, the toxin genes have been found in other Shigella ...

Analyses of cytochrome P450 1a (CYP1A)‐knockout (KO) Javanese medaka (Oryzias javanicus) revealed that CYP1A is involved in glucose regulation and reproduction. In the KO fish, significant increases in hepatic transcripts of insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin genes, as well as elevated blood glucose, liver mass, and liver triglyceride levels ...
