Clinical Isolates of Shiga Toxin 1a–Producing Shigella flexneri with an Epidemiological Link to Recent Travel to Hispañiola

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
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 ...

Inhibition of Shiga toxin-converting bacteriophage development by novel antioxidant compounds [PDF]

, 2018
Oxidative stress may be the major cause of induction of Shiga toxin-converting (Stx) prophages from chromosomes of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in human intestine.

Induction of apoptosis by Shiga toxins [PDF]

Future Microbiology, 2010
Shiga toxins comprise a family of structurally and functionally related protein toxins expressed by Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1 and multiple serotypes of Escherichia coli. While the capacity of Shiga toxins to inhibit protein synthesis by catalytic inactivation of eukaryotic ribosomes has been well described, it is also apparent that Shiga toxins ...

Shiga Toxin–producing Escherichia coli, Idaho

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
To the Editor: Data collected from expanded surveillance study suggest that more than half of Idaho Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) illnesses are caused by non-O157 serotypes. Using data from a regional medical center whose stool culture protocol included Shiga toxin testing, we predicted Idaho’s STEC incidence to be significantly higher ...

Short communication: Isolation of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in raw milk and mozzarella cheese in southern Italy.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2016
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are a significant food-borne public health hazard in Europe, where most human infections are associated with 5 serogroups (O157, O26, O103, O145, and O111).

Day-to-day dynamics of commensal Escherichia coli in Zimbabwean cows evidence temporal fluctuations within a host-specific population structure [PDF]

, 2017
To get insights into the temporal pattern of commensal Escherichia coli populations, we sampled the feces of four healthy cows from the same herd in the Hwange District of Zimbabwe daily over 25 days. The cows had not received antibiotic treatment during

The Shiga toxin 2 production level in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 is correlated with the subtypes of toxin-encoding phage

Scientific Reports, 2015
Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) causes diarrhea and hemorrhagic colitis with life-threatening complications, such as hemolytic uremic syndrome. Their major virulence factor is Shiga toxin (Stx), which is encoded by bacteriophages.
