Cholera toxin production by the El Tor variant of Vibrio cholerae O1 compared to prototype El Tor and classical biotypes.
Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor variant strains produced much more cholera toxin than did prototype El Tor strains. The amount of cholera toxin produced by El Tor variant strains both in vitro and in vivo was more or less equivalent to that produced by classical strains.

Such infections, furthermore, are particularly worrisome in malnourished infants, where they tend to result more often in protracted diarrhea necessitating vigorous and risk-laden supportive treatment.

plicated by bilateral hearing loss with vestibular dysfunction. Preexisting medical conditions, such as alcoholism, liver cirrhosis, or splenectomy, have been described to predispose patients to severe infection and hearing loss (2). Our patient, however, did not have any predisposing conditions. Meningitis in humans caused by S. suis serotype 14 is less common than that caused by serotype 2, b...
متن کاملNew evidence for an inflammatory component in diarrhea caused by selected new, live attenuated cholera vaccines and by El Tor and Q139 Vibrio cholerae.
Using a lactoferrin latex agglutination assay, we have compared the inflammatory responses to a cholera vaccine candidate, CVD 110, in which all known toxin genes have been deleted or mutated yet still produced significant diarrhea, with a less reactive vaccine strain and wild-type El Tor and 0139 Vibrio cholerae strains. Data suggest that diarrhea due to attenuated and wild-type El Tor V. chol...
