Fine structure of Vibrio cholerae during toxin production.
The fine structural changes associated with cell growth and toxin production have been examined in Vibrio cholerae strain 569B. No morphological alterations in the cell envelope are apparent during logarithmic growth with thin-section techniques. However, internal swelling, suggesting alteration of cell envelope permeability, is evident particularly during the late logarithmic and early station...
متن کاملNitric oxide production during Vibrio cholerae infection.
Vibrio cholerae induces massive intestinal fluid secretion that continues for the life of the stimulated epithelial cells. Enhanced regional blood flow and peristalsis are required to adapt to this obligatory intestinal secretory challenge. Nitric oxide (NO) is a multifunctional molecule that modulates blood flow and peristalsis and possesses both cytotoxic and antibacterial activity. We demons...
متن کاملCapsaicin inhibitory effects on Vibrio cholerae toxin genes expression
Objective: Cholera is an acute secretory diarrhea caused by the Gram-negative bacterium, Vibrio cholerae mostly through production of cholera toxin (CT) and zonula occludens toxin (Zot).<span style="fon...
متن کاملMolecular Detection of Zonula Occludens Toxin (zot) Genes in Vibrio Cholerae O1 using PCR
Background: Zot (Zonula occludens toxin) is one of the secretion toxins of Vibrio cholerae in small intestine that binds to certain receptors in the epithelial cells and causes a change in the structure of tight junction. The purpose of this research is rapid detection of zot enterotoxin gene using PCR. Materials and Methods: The genomic DNA was extracted by DNA isolation kit and gene amplific...
متن کاملIn vitro evaluation of capsaicin inhibitory effects on zonula occludens toxin in vibrio cholerae ATCC14035 strain
Background: Cholera is a potentially epidemic and life-threatening secretory diarrhoea characterized by voluminous watery stools, often accompanied by vomiting, and resulting in hypovolemic shock and acidosis. It is caused by certain strains of the species Vibrio cholerae which can also cause mild or in apparent infections. The aim of this study is the evaluation of Capsaicin, as a potential in...
