Regional Differences in Presence of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli Virulence-Associated Genes in the Environment in the North West and East Anglian regions of England [PDF]
, 2020 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli is carried in the intestine of ruminant animals, and outbreaks have occurred after contact with ruminant animals or their environment.

Recent Updates on Outbreaks of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli and Its Potential Reservoirs
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Following infection with certain strains of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), particularly enterohemorrhagic ones, patients are at elevated risk for developing life-threatening extraintestinal complications, such as acute renal failure ...

Functional Dissection of the Retrograde Shiga Toxin Trafficking Inhibitor Retro-2
Nature Chemical Biology, 2020 The retrograde transport inhibitor Retro-2 has a protective effect on cells and in mice against Shiga-like toxins and ricin. Retro-2 causes toxin accumulation in early endosomes and relocalization of the Golgi SNARE protein syntaxin-5 to the endoplasmic ...

Shiga toxin suppresses noncanonical inflammasome responses to cytosolic LPS
Science immunology, 2020 Shiga toxin, a phage-encoded bacterial virulence factor, inhibits caspase-11–mediated inflammasome responses. Paring down pyroptosis Shiga toxin is a phage-encoded exotoxin that interrupts protein translation and functions as a virulence factor for ...

Revisiting the STEC Testing Approach: Using espK and espV to Make Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) Detection More Reliable in Beef [PDF]
, 2016 Current methods for screening Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 and non-O157 in beef enrichments typically rely on the molecular detection of stx, eae, and serogroup-specific wzx or wzy gene fragments.

Laboratory Practices and Incidence of Non-O157 Shiga Toxin–producing Escherichia coli Infections
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 We surveyed laboratories in Washington State, USA, and found that increased use of Shiga toxin assays correlated with increased reported incidence of non-O157 Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infections during 2005–2010.

Early termination of the Shiga toxin transcript generates a regulatory small RNA
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance Enterohemorrhagic E. coli is a significant human pathogen that can cause severe disease due to the release of Shiga toxins. The toxins are encoded within lysogenic bacteriophage and controlled by antitermination of the phage late promoter ...
