چکیده

1. Anti-Shiga bacteriophage injected into the general circulation can multiply in the brain of mice infected intracerebrally with Shigella dysenteriae. 2. Under proper conditions, the injection of active bacteriophage into the general circulation can protect mice against an otherwise fatal intracerebral infection with Shigella dysenteriae. 3. The protection so induced appears to depend upon the early establishment of a high bacteriophage level in the infected animal.

Probiotic Bifidobacterium Lactis Bacteria Inhibit the Invasion Phenotype of Shigella Dysenteriae Induced By Invasion Plasmid Antigen C

Background and Aims: Shigellosis is an acute gastroenteritis and Invasion plasmid antigen C (IpaC) is the first effector protein for Shigella invasion of intestinal cells. Among lactic acid bacteria, Bifidobacterium lactis (B. lactis) has received increasing attention for protection of a potential host against gastrointestinal infections. The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory ...

Background: Salmonellosis is a gastroenteritis caused by the infection with different serotypes of Salmonella. Salmonella enterica is an enterica subtype, enteritidis, typhimurium, and infantis are the most important factors of gastroenteritis in humans. In recent years, increasingly commonly used antibiotics and treatments are resistant. The main purpose of this study was to compare the antiba...
