Yersinia enterocolitica YopT and Clostridium difficile Toxin B Induce Expression of GILZ in Epithelial Cells
Glucocorticoid induced-leucine zipper (GILZ) has been shown to be induced in cells by different stimuli such as glucocorticoids, IL-10 or deprivation of IL-2. GILZ has anti-inflammatory properties and may be involved in signalling modulating apoptosis. Herein we demonstrate that wildtype Yersinia enterocolitica which carry the pYV plasmid upregulated GILZ mRNA levels and protein expression in e...
متن کاملMetal Ion Activation of Clostridium sordellii Lethal Toxin and Clostridium difficile Toxin B
Lethal Toxin from Clostridium sordellii (TcsL) and Toxin B from Clostridium difficile (TcdB) belong to the family of the "Large clostridial glycosylating toxins." These toxins mono-O-glucosylate low molecular weight GTPases of the Rho and Ras families by exploiting UDP-glucose as a hexose donor. TcsL is casually involved in the toxic shock syndrome and the gas gangrene. TcdB-together with Toxin...
متن کاملClostridium Difficile Toxin A+B Rapid Test
Clostridium Difficile Toxin A+B Rapid Test provides a procedure for a qualitative detection of Clostridium difficile toxin A (TcdA) and toxin B (TcdB) in two separate bands. A positive band of either toxin is a sign of an underlying Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), which should attract the attention of the physician. Samples used are liquid or semi-liquid human stool samples. Care must be...
متن کاملImmunomodulatory Effects of Mice Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Maturation and Activation of Dendritic Cells
Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess a wide range of immunomodulatory functions mostly in immune cells including dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are the key cells in the immune response and play an important role in initiating cell-mediated immunity. Objective: To evaluate the immunomodulatory effects of MSCs supernatant on maturation and function of DCs. Methods: Bone marrow derived m...
متن کاملUtility of Clostridium difficile Toxin B for Inducing Anti-Tumor Immunity
Clostridium difficile toxin B (TcdB) is a key virulence factor of bacterium and induces intestinal inflammatory disease. Because of its potent cytotoxic and proinflammatory activities, we investigated the utility of TcdB in developing anti-tumor immunity. TcdB induced cell death in mouse colorectal cancer CT26 cells, and the intoxicated cells stimulated the activation of mouse bone marrow-deriv...
