immunogenicity of a new recombinant ipac from shigella dysenteriae type i in guinea pig as a vaccine candidate.recombinant vaccine technology is one of the most developed means in controlling infectious diseases. however, an effective vaccine against shigella is still missing.201323811550
in vitro selection of a dna aptamer targeted against shigella dysenteriae.to identify dna aptamers demonstrating binding specificity for shigella dysenteriae, a whole-bacterium systemic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (selex) method was applied to a combinatorial library of single-stranded dna (ssdna) molecules. after several rounds of selection using s. dysenteriae as the target, the highly enriched oligonucleotide pool was sequenced and then grouped into different families based on primary sequence homologies and similarities in the secondary structur ...201323811206
differential response of the cynomolgus macaque gut microbiota to shigella infection.little is known about the role of gut microbiota in response to live oral vaccines against enteric pathogens. we examined the effect of immunization with an oral live-attenuated shigella dysenteriae 1 vaccine and challenge with wild-type s. dysenteriae 1 on the fecal microbiota of cynomolgus macaques using 16 s rrna analysis of fecal samples. multi-dimensional cluster analysis identified different bacterial community types within macaques from geographically distinct locations. the fecal microbi ...201323755118
molecular cloning and biologically active production of ipad n-terminal region.shigella is known as pathogenic intestinal bacteria in high dispersion and pathogenic bacteria due to invasive plasmid antigen (ipa). so far, a number of ipa proteins have been studied to introduce a new candidate vaccine. here, for the first time, we examined whether the n-terminal region of ipad(72-162) could be a proper candidate for shigella vaccine. initially, the dna sequence coding n-terminal region was isolated by pcr from shigella dysenteriae type i and cloned into pet-28a expression ve ...201323731655
changing emergence of shigella sero-groups in bangladesh: observation from four different diarrheal disease hospitals.shigellosis continues to be a public health challenge for developing countries, including bangladesh. the aim of the study is to demonstrate recent changes in shigella sero-groups and their geographical diversity.201323658619
multiplexed immunoassay to assess shigella-specific antibody responses.infection with shigella spp. results in bacillary dysentery and a systemic and mucosal antibody response. the immune response is directed at multiple antigens, including lps and the invasin plasmid antigen (ipa) proteins, and is capable of conferring short-term, serotype-specific protection. both live-attenuated and several subunit vaccine approaches have focused on inducing a pronounced mucosal immune response directed to the same antigens recognized after natural infection. traditionally, shig ...201323583496
comparative analysis of the genomes of shigella dysenteriae type 2 & type 7 isolates.the four species of the genus shigella, namely, s. dysenteriae , s. flexneri, s. boydii and s. sonnei cause a wide spectrum of illness from watery diarrhoea to severe dysentery. genomes of these four species show great diversity. in this study, noti, xbai or i-ceui restriction enzyme digested genomes of two shigella dysenteriae isolates belonging to the serotypes 2 and 7 were extensively analyzed to find their relatedness, if any, with the whole genome sequenced strains of s. dysenteriae type 1 ...201323481068
[effects of lamivudine on growth of intestinal characteristic bacteria by microcalorimetry in vitro].the study is aimed to investigate the effect of lamivudine on growth and metabolism of three intestinal characteristic bacteria (namely, bifidobacterium adolescentis, escherichia coli and shigella dysenteriae). the growth condition of the three bacteria was quantitatively evaluated by microcalorimetry with four characteristic parameters of the thermal power-time curves, including the growth rate constant (k), thermal power (p), time to peak (t) and calorific value (q). the results showed that th ...201324417087

[nonocclusive ischemic enteropathy--a rare cause of ileus].the cause for a nonocclusive ischemic enteropathy seems to be a low cardiac output syndrome. there are often signs of a paralytic intestinal obstruction. parameters of the blood chemistry offer no conclusive data. the angiogram of the mesenteric vessels demonstrates extensive arterial vasoconstriction as well as an obstructed venous outflow. experimental findings disclose that this venous obstruction may be a result of an ischemic contracture in the course of a low flow state. this rigor initiat ...20133840557
heat shock elicits production of sexual inducer in volvox.in the green alga volvox carteri, heat shock had an unusual and adaptive effect mediated by induced production of a well-defined effector molecule. females of this species normally reproduce asexually in the absence of a potent sexual inducer produced by mature sexual males, but they generated egg-bearing sexual daughters after a brief exposure to elevated temperatures. this response involved an "autoinduction" of sexuality, in which heat-shocked somatic cells made and released the sexual induce ...20133941891
diagnostic and curative value of uterine curettage.one hundred and eighty-one consecutive patients admitted for curettage because of irregular uterine bleeding were classified preoperatively as having postmenopausal bleeding, intermenstrual bleeding, menorrhagia, or metrorrhagia. they were followed up at 3 and 9 months after curettage with regard to diagnosis and cure. fifty-seven per cent were cured; the lowest curative effect was found in patients suffering from menorrhagia. an etiological diagnosis was made in 90 patients; in the menorrhagia ...20133811841
