Effect of Modified Pulsatilla Powder on Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli O101-Induced Diarrhea in Mice
نویسندگان
چکیده
MPP can be effective in the treatment of E. coli O101-induced diarrhea in mice. MPP can improve the weight loss caused by diarrhea, increase spleen and thymus indices, and reduce the diarrhea index. MPP can reduce the number of WBC, regulate the level of cytokines, and regulate the intestinal microbial flora. These data suggest that MPP is a promising candidate for treatment of E. coli-induced diarrhea in humans and animals.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection induces tight junction proteins expression in mice
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) causes diarrhea in travelers, young children and piglets, but the precise pathogenesis of ETEC induced diarrhea is not fully known. Recent investigations have shown that tight junction (TJ) proteins and aquaporin 3 (AQP 3) are contributing factors in bacterial diarrhea. In this study, using immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry analyses, we found that E...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from neonatal calves diarrhea
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) produces different virulence factors allowing the bacterium to colonize and develop watery diarrhea. Proteomics studies have also introduced new protein belonging to the secretion pathways, antigen 43 (Ag43), which plays important role in E. coli pathogenesis. The objective of this study was to investigate O-types and virulence factors o...
متن کاملOccurrence and characteristics of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from calves with diarrhea.
Of 1,004 isolates of Escherichia coli obtained during the spring of 1975 in seven different states from calves with diarrhea, 124 isolates were enterotoxigenic based upon ability to cause distention of the calf ligated intestinal segment. Isolates of enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) were obtained from calves in six of the seven states. ETEC were detected in calves in 118 of 355 herds in Montana d...
متن کاملVaccination of cows with a K99 extract to protect newborn calves against experimental enterotoxic colibacillosis.
Pregnant cows and heifers were vaccinated with a crude K99 extract prepared from an Escherichia coli K-12, K99 strain. A similar group, injected with an extract prepared from the K-12 parent strain, served as a control. Eleven calves were born to both groups and challenged orally with a mean of 1.6 x 10(11) bacteria of enterotoxic E. coli B41 (O101:K99+, ST+) at the time of first colostrum upta...
متن کاملImmunogenic Evaluation of Bivalent Vaccine Candidate against Enterohemorrhagic and Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Background: Caused by bacterial, viral, and parasitic pathogens, diarrhea is the second leading cause of death among children under five. Two strains of E. coli, namely Enterotoxigenic, ETEC and Enterohemorrhagic EHEC are the most important causes of this disease in developing countries. EHEC is a major causative agent of bloody diarrhea and hemorrhag...
