Effect of Escherichia coli cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 on repair of human bladder cell monolayers in vitro.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We hypothesized that Escherichia coli cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 (CNF1) might impair migration or proliferation of bladder cells and could potentially interfere with repair of the bladder epithelium. Using experimentally wounded human T24 bladder epithelial cell monolayers as an in vitro model, we found that both the number of T24 cells and the maximum distance they migrated into wounded regions was significantly decreased by bacterial extracts containing E. coli CNF1.

Cytotoxicity of hemolytic, cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1-positive and -negative Escherichia coli to human T24 bladder cells.
Approximately one-half of Escherichia coli isolates from patients with cystitis or pyelonephritis produce the pore-forming cytotoxin hemolysin, a molecule with the capacity to lyse erythrocytes and a range of nucleated cell types. A second toxin, cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 (CNF1), is found in approximately 70% of hemolytic, but rarely in nonhemolytic, isolates. To evaluate the potential int...

Cytotoxic necrotizing factor type 1 (CNF1) from Escherichia coli activates the small GTP-binding proteins of the Rho family (Rho, Rac, and Cdc42) by catalyzing their deamidation at a specific glutamine residue. Since RhoA, Rac, and Cdc42 play a pivotal role in cell migration during the early phase of wound repair, we investigated whether CNF1 was able to interfere with wound healing in intestin...
متن کاملEffects of cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 and lethal toxin on actin cytoskeleton and VE-cadherin localization in human endothelial cell monolayers.
Integrity of the vascular endothelium is largely dependent on endothelial cell shape and establishment of intercellular junctions. Certain pathogenic bacterial toxins alter the cytoskeletal architecture of intoxicated cells by modulating the GTPase activity of p21 Rho family proteins. In the present study we have analyzed the effect of Rho-directed toxins on the actin cytoskeleton and monolayer...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strain J96
Escherichia coli J96 (O4:K6) was isolated from a human pyelonephritis patient. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of E. coli J96, which contains virulence genes, including adhesion factors, alpha-hemolysins, and cytotoxic necrotizing factor. J96 infects the kidney and bladder, making it an important tool for studying E. coli pathogenesis.

Cytotoxic necrotizing factor type 1 (CNF1), a 110-kDa toxin-like protein from pathogenic Escherichia coli strains, induces an actin cytoskeleton reorganization consisting of the formation of prominent stress fibers by permanent activation of the small GTP-binding protein Rho. Since p21Rho regulates tight-junction permeability and perijunctional actin reorganization in epithelial intestinal cell...
