A modification of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for a sensitive and rapid visual detection of heat-labile enterotoxins from Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae is described. Small amounts of bacterial supernatant fluids are bound to nitrocellulose filters which are used as sorbents in the nitrocellulose enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The test is based on the immunological similarit...
We investigated the involvement of the recently described staphylococcal enterotoxins G and I in toxic shock syndrome. We reexamined Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from patients with menstrual and nonmenstrual toxic shock syndrome (nine cases) or staphylococcal scarlet fever (three cases). These strains were selected because they produced none of the toxins known to be involved in these...
Milk is considered a nutritious food because it contains several important nutrients including proteins and vitamins. Conversely, it can be a vehicle for several pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus. This study aimed to analyze the frequency of genes encoding the nine Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) and enterotoxin gene profiles in S. aureus isolates derived from raw bovine milk....
Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) are a family of 17 major serological types of heat-stable enterotoxins that are one of the leading causes of gastroenteritis resulting from consumption of contaminated food. SEs are considered potential bioweapons. Many Staphylococcus aureus isolates contain multiple SEs. Because of the large number of SEs, serological typing and PCR typing are laborious and ti...
Bacterial diarrheagenic heat-stable enterotoxins induce colon cancer cell cytostasis by targeting guanylyl cyclase C (GCC) signaling. Anticancer actions of these toxins are mediated by cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent influx of Ca2+ through cyclic nucleotide-gated channels. However, prolonged stimulation of GCC produces resistance in tumor cells to heat-stable enterotoxin-i...
Staphylococcus aureus produces enterotoxins, which are causative agents of foodborne intoxications. Enterotoxins are single-chain polypeptides and have a molecular weight of about 26-28 kDa. The consumption of food contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxins results in the onset of acute gastroenteritis within 2-6 h. The objective of this study was the development of a new method for t...
A method of simultaneous analysis of staphylococcal enterotoxins using hydrogel-based microarrays (biochips) has been developed. The method allows simultaneous quantitative detection of seven enterotoxins: A, B, C1, D, E, G, and I in a single sample. The development of the method included expression and purification of recombinant toxins, production of panels of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) aga...
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) produces two types of enterotoxins: heat-labile (LT) and heat-stable (STa and STb). These molecules are involved in the induction of secretory diarrhea in animals including humans. This condition is currently treated using a fluid replacement therapy and antibiotics. This treatment is often not available to people in developing countries, and several die ...
The potential cytotoxic activity of purified staphylococcal enterotoxins for mammalian cells was evaluated. The effects of staphylococcal enterotoxins A (SEA) and B (SEB) on cell membrane integrity as measured by leakage of labeled cytoplasmic constituents ([3H]uridine), amino acid transport (lysine and aminoisobutyric acid), and macromolecular synthesis (protein, ribonucleic acid, and deoxyrib...
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains that produce multiple enterotoxins are important causes of severe dehydrating diarrhea in human beings and animals, but the relative importance of these enterotoxins in the pathogenesis is poorly understood. Gnotobiotic piglets were used to study the importance of heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) in infection with an ETEC strain that produces multiple...
