26 Some hypervirulent strains of Clostridium difficile produce the binary actin-ADP-ribosylating 27 toxin CDT in addition to the Rho-glucosylating toxins A and B. It has been suggested that the 28 presence of CDT increases the severity of the C. difficile-associated diseases including 29 pseudomembranous colitis. CDT contains a binding and translocation component CDTb, which 30 mediates the tra...
Bacteria that colonize the intestinal tract can invade epithelial cells or produce toxins that cause diarrhoeal diseases. Proliferation of Clostridium perfringens and production of alpha-toxin, a phospholipase C, is the major factor for necrotic enteritis in poultry. However, little is known about the functional importance of luminal alpha-toxin during intestinal infection. The purpose of this ...
Described is a rapid direct sandwich format electrochemiluminescence assay for identifying and assaying Clostridium perfringens alpha toxin. Biotinylated antibodies to C. perfringens alpha toxin bound to streptavidin paramagnetic beads specifically immunoadsorbed soluble sample alpha toxin which subsequently selectively immunoadsorbed ruthenium (Ru)-labeled detection antibodies. The ruthenium c...
Clostridium perfringens-induced necrotic enteritis (NE) is a widespread disease in chickens that causes high mortality and reduced growth performance. Traditionally, NE was controlled by the routine application of antimicrobials in the feed, a practice that currently is unpopular. Consequently, there has been an increase in the occurrence of NE, and it has become a threat to the current objecti...
Staphylococcal alpha-toxin was radiolabeled to high specific radioactivity (1,500-3,000 Ci/mmol) under retention of its hemolytic activity. Binding studies with susceptible rabbit erythrocytes and highly resistant human erythrocytes revealed that binding of alpha-toxin to target cells can occur via two different mechanisms. Binding of alpha-toxin to rabbit erythrocytes initially involves specif...
Infections with Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing bacteria cause bloody diarrhea which may progress to life-threatening complications, including acute renal failure and neurological abnormalities. The precise mechanism of disease progression is unclear, although evidence suggests that the localized production of the host proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleuki...
Specifically stained staphylococcal alpha toxin particles were detected on unstained and nonspecifically stained ghost membranes when rabbit erythrocytes were exposed to alpha toxin and stained with fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled specific antitoxin. Fading of the nonspecific staining was observed and was attributed to the degradation of the membranes by alpha toxin.
Staphylococcal alpha-toxin was purified from Staphylococcus aureus growth medium using adsorption chromatography on controlled pore glass beads. Elution of alpha-toxin from the unmodified glass surface of the beads with various anions generally followed the chaotropic series. Alpha-toxin, purified by glass bead chromatography, is composed of a single electrophoretic form, containing less than 2...
Clostridium perfringens causes necrotic enteritis in chickens, and alpha-toxin has been suggested to be a key virulence determinant. Analysis of the alpha-toxin of 25 chicken-derived C. perfringens strains demonstrated high homology to mammal-derived strains rather than to the only avian-derived C. perfringens alpha-toxin sequence reported previously.
Staphylococcus aureus plays a major role as a bacterial pathogen in human medicine, causing diseases that range from superficial skin and wound to systemic nosocomial infections . The majority of S. aureus strains produces a toxin, a proteinaceous exotoxin whose hemolytic, dermonecrotic, and lethal properties have long been known (1-6). The toxin is secreted as a single- chained, nonglycosylate...
