Streptococcal mitogenic exotoxin Z (SMEZ), a superantigen derived from Streptococcus pyogenes, provoked expansion of human lymphocytes expressing the Vbeta 2, 4, 7 and 8 motifs of T-cell receptor. SMEZ was pyrogenic in rabbits and stimulated the expression of the T-cell activation markers CD69 and cutaneous lymphocyte-associated antigen. A variety of cytokines was released by human mononuclear ...
Background and Aim: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important ubiquitous and especially common pathogen in the hospital. Exotoxin A that encoded by exoA gene has a role in pathogenesis of this bacterium. Today, probiotics are widely used in the treatment and prevention of diseases. The present study aimed to study the Saccharomyces cerevisiae S3 effect on the expression of exoA gene. Materials an...
Toxic shock syndrome-associated staphylococcal and streptococcal exotoxins were tested for an ability to induce the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Staphylococcal enterotoxins B and C1, along with streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A, all induced TNF production in a dose-dependent manner, with production peaking on the average at 3 days but continuing over the 6 days tested. This time ...
Diphtheria toxin (DT) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A have the same molecular mechanism of toxicity; both toxins ADP-ribosylate a modified histidine residue in elongation factor 2. To help identify amino acids involved in this reaction, sequences in DT that share homology with P. aeruginosa exotoxin A were synthesized and examined for a role in the ADP-ribosyltransferase reaction. By usin...
An in vitro cytotoxicity microassay for the measurement of nanogram quantities of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin and Vibrio cholerae enterotoxin is described.
pseudomonas aeruginosa as an opportunistic pathogen produces several virulence factors. the most important of these factors are exotoxin a and type iii secretion system (t3ss). the aim of this study was to determine the frequency of toxa, exou and exos genes among clinical isolates of p. aeruginosa. in this cross-sectional study from september 2011 to february 2012, 156 p. aeruginosa isolates w...
A simple hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test for the serological diagnosis of toxoplasmosis has been developed and evaluated. A total of 84 human and 120 mouse serum samples were tested by the newly developed HI test and compared with an immunoglobulin G-indirect fluorescent antibody test. Statistical analysis of serum titers obtained by using the HI test and the immunoglobulin G-indirect flu...
Pseudomonas keratitis. The role of an uncharacterized exoprotein, protease IV, in corneal virulence.
PURPOSE The role of exoproteins in the pathogenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis was investigated in three animal models by assessing the relationship between corneal virulence and the activities of exotoxin A, elastase, alkaline protease, and an uncharacterized protease, protease IV. METHODS The four Pseudomonal strains tested included a prototype strain (ATCC 27853) producing exotoxi...
Phagocytosis of bacteria by macrophages and neutrophils is an essential component of host defense against infection. The mechanism whereby the interaction of opsonized particles with Fcgamma receptors triggers the engulfment of opsonized particles remains incompletely understood, although activation of tyrosine kinases has been recognized as an early step. Recent studies in other systems have d...
