Intestinal immunisation with Escherichia coli protects rats against Escherichia coli induced cholangitis.
BACKGROUND Cholangitis, an infection of the biliary tract, is most commonly caused by Gram negative bacteria, particularly Escherichia coli. Factors governing the severity of cholangitis, including the role of biliary IgA, are poorly understood. AIMS The aim of this work was to find out if biliary IgA directed against E coli protects rats against hepatobiliary infection with E coli. SUBJECT...
متن کاملGlutamine induces heat-shock protein and protects against Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide-induced vascular hyporeactivity in rats
INTRODUCTION Vascular hyporeactivity is an important problem associated with sepsis. Although the mechanism involves inflammatory pathway activation, specific therapeutic approaches have not been defined. Glutamine (Gln) has been shown to provide some anti-inflammatory effects and improve outcomes in sepsis. Here, we tested the hypothesis that Gln could reduce Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharid...
متن کاملEnteroaggregative escherichia coli virulence factors in traveler's diarrhea strains.
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is associated with diarrhea in Spanish travelers to developing countries. In this study, the polymerase chain reaction was used to test EAEC isolates for genes encoding putative virulence factors, including EAEC adhesins, the plasmid-encoded toxin (Pet), a heat-stable enterotoxin (EAST), and Shigella enterotoxins 1 and 2 (ShET1 and ShET2). Findings incl...
متن کاملGoat milk with and without increased concentrations of lysozyme improves repair of intestinal cell damage induced by enteroaggregative Escherichia coli
BACKGROUND Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) causes diarrhea, malnutrition and poor growth in children. Human breast milk decreases disease-causing bacteria by supplying nutrients and antimicrobial factors such as lysozyme. Goat milk with and without human lysozyme (HLZ) may improve the repair of intestinal barrier function damage induced by EAEC. This work investigates the effect of th...
متن کاملInvolvement of the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli plasmid-encoded toxin in causing human intestinal damage.
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) strains have been shown to adhere to human intestinal tissue in an in vitro organ culture (IVOC) model, and certain strains manifest mucosal toxicity. We have recently described the EAEC plasmid-encoded toxin (Pet), a member of a specific serine protease subclass of the autotransporter proteins. When injected into rat ileal loops, Pet both elicited flui...
