Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in Montana: bacterial genotypes and clinical profiles.
The diseases and virulence genes associated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are characterized incompletely. We analyzed, by polymerase chain reaction, 82 STEC isolates collected prospectively in Montana and profiled associated illnesses by patient chart review. All E. coli O157:H7 contained stx2-group genes, as well as eae, iha, espA, and ehxA; 84% contained stx1. Non-O157:H7...
متن کاملCharacterization of non-Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157 strains isolated from dogs.
Shiga toxin-negative Escherichia coli O157 strains of various H types have been associated with diarrhea in children and are considered potentially pathogenic for humans. In this study, we describe non-Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O157 E. coli strains previously obtained from dogs in Argentina. Different E. coli phylogenetic lineages corresponding to flagellar types H16, H29 and H45 were ident...
متن کاملRelationship of genetic type of Shiga toxin to manifestation of bloody diarrhea due to enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli serogroup O157 isolates in Osaka City, Japan.
One hundred sixty-nine strains of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli serogroup O157 were examined for the correlation between the genotype of their Shiga toxin genes (stx) and manifestation of bloody diarrhea (BD). It was shown that the strains carrying only stx2vha were probably less virulent and caused BD less frequently.

BACKGROUND Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 is a well-recognized cause of bloody diarrhea and hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS). Non-O157 STEC contribute to this burden of illness but have been underrecognized as a result of diagnostic limitations and inadequate surveillance. METHODS Between 1983 and 2002, 43 state public health laboratories submitted 940 human non-O157 STE...
متن کاملShiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157 associated with human infections in Switzerland, 2000-2009.
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), an important foodborne pathogen, can cause mild to severe bloody diarrhoea (BD), sometimes followed by life-threatening complications such as haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS). A total of 44 O157 strains isolated from different patients from 2000 through 2009 in Switzerland were further characterized and linked to medical history data. Non-bloody d...

Altogether, 173 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) serotype O157 (n = 111) and non-O157 (n = 62) isolates from 170 subjects were screened by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism for eight different stx genes. The results were compiled according to serotypes, phage types of O157, production of Stx toxin and enterohemolysin, and the presence of eae. The stx genes occurred in 11...
