Shigella dysentery and shigella infections

open access: yesEastern Mediterranean Health Journal, 2021
In the Eastern Mediterranean Region, dysentery is recognized as one of the major causes of persistent diarrhoea and malnutrition. The latest estimates amount to about a million total shigella cases annually with approximately 40 000 deaths [an average of 4% case fatality rate].

Acid tolerance of Shigella sonnei and Shigella flexneri [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Microbiology, 2002
Determination of the behaviour of Shigella sonnei and Sh. flexneri under acid conditions.The growth and survival of Shigella spp. (9 isolates) in acidified Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) (pH 5.0-3.25 with pH intervals of 0.25) was determined after 6, 24 and 30 h incubation at 37 degrees C.

Host protein phosphorylation during "Shigella flexneri" infection : a phosphoproteomic based systems biology approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The enteroinvasive bacterium Shigella flexneri triggers its uptake into epithelial cells by injecting several effector proteins via its type three secretion system (TTSS) and interferes with various host cell processes at later stages of infection.

Elucidation of a molecular mechanism controlling inflammation during bacterial infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Recently we described a mechanism of gap junction-mediated communication between infected and uninfected epithelial cells that potentiates innate immunity during infection by the enteroinvasive bacterium Shigella flexneri.
