Immunological heterogeneity has long been the major challenge in developing broadly effective vaccines to protect humans and animals against bacterial and viral infections. Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains, the leading bacterial cause of diarrhea in humans, express at least 23 immunologically different colonization factor antigens (CFAs) and two distinct enterotoxins [heat-labile...
Production of toxins by Clostridium septicum and Clostridium chauvoei has been the subject of many conflicting reports. Roux and Chamberland (1887) first noted that 3 to 4 day filtrates were antigenic; conferring on guinea pigs an immunity against infection with viable organisms. Production of a lethal toxin by C. septicum was however, demonstrated by Leclainche (1898) and Leclainche and Morel ...
Clostridium botulinum types C and D produce a 16 S (500 kDa) toxin that is formed by conjugation of neurotoxin with a non-toxic component (nonTox). The amino acid sequences of type C and D nonTox components are almost identical. In a previous report it was proposed that nonTox is necessary for the effective absorption of the toxin from the small intestine. This suggested the hypothesis that muc...
Cholera toxin (CT) and Escherichia coli heat-labile toxin (LT) are not only the causative agents of diarrhea but are also strong mucosal adjuvants which enhance immune responses to mucosally coadministered bystander antigens. One of the most promising applications of these toxins would be as mucosal adjuvant of nasal influenza vaccine. In comparison to current inactivated vaccines, the nasal va...
Background—The enteric nervous system is important in the pathophysiology of intestinal fluid secretion induced by cholera toxin (CT), Escherichia coli heat labile (LT), and heat stable (STa) toxins. The neurotransmitters involved are not fully elucidated. Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), a potent intestinal secretagogue present in the enteric nervous system, is increased after exposure...
Infection caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) poses a serious health problem among children and adults in developing countries. Colonization of the small intestinal mucosa by ETEC strains is mediated by antigenically specific fimbriae, also known as colonization factor antigens (CFA). The significance of this study arises from reports that active and passive immunization with ETEC...
Vibrio cholerae and Escherichia coli heat labile toxins (CT and LT) elicit a secretory response from intestinal epithelia by binding apical receptors (ganglioside GM1) and subsequently activating basolateral effectors (adenylate cyclase). We have recently proposed that signal transduction in polarized cells may require transcytosis of toxin-containing membranes (Lencer, W. I., G. Strohmeier, S....
