Reduction of the secretory response to Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin by thiol and disulfide compounds.
We examined the effects of disulfide and thiol compounds on Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) and cyclic GMP-induced secretion. Both cystamine and cystine (disulfide compounds) reduced the secretory responses to submaximal doses of ST in suckling mice (at 0.5 mumol per mouse) and reduced ST activation of guanylate cyclase (by 33 to 73% at 1 mM). In higher doses, cystamine completely...
متن کاملLanthanum chloride inhibition of the secretory response to Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin.
Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) appears to cause intestinal fluid secretion by activating intestinal particulate guanylate cyclase. Recent studies suggest that chlorpromazine and quinacrine reduce the intestinal secretory response to ST and activation of guanylate cyclase by ST. We have examined the effects of lanthanum chloride, another agent that has been shown to inhibit calciu...
متن کاملHeat-stable enterotoxin of Escherichia coli stimulates a non-CFTR-mediated duodenal bicarbonate secretory pathway.
The cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is an important pathway for duodenal mucosal bicarbonate secretion. Duodenal biopsies from CF patients secrete bicarbonate in response to heat-stable enterotoxin from Escherichia coli (STa) but not cAMP. To explore the mechanism of STa-induced bicarbonate secretion in CF more fully, we examined the role of CFTR in STa-stimulate...
متن کاملProperties of synthetically produced Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin.
The properties of a synthetically produced peptide composed of the same primary structure of 18 amino acids described for human Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin were compared with those of purified heat-stable toxin obtained by bacterial growth. The dosage required to evoke fluid secretion in the suckling mouse and rat ligated ileal loop assays was the same for both toxins. The antigeni...
متن کاملBactericidal Effect of Selected Antidiarrhoeal Medicinal Plants on Intracellular Heat-Stable Enterotoxin-Producing Escherichia coli
Diarrhoeal diseases due to enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli continue to be a cause of global concern. Medicinal plants have been gaining popularity as promising antidiarrhoeal agents. In the present study, four antidiarrhoeal plants, viz. Aegle marmelos, Cyperus rotundus, Psidium guajava and Zingiber officinale were screened against a heat-stable toxin-producing enterotoxigenic E. coli strain. ...
