biological properties of shigella flexneri 2a toxin and its serological relationship to shigella dysenteriae 1 toxin.a toxin extracted from heat-inactivated, alkaline-treated shigella flexneri 2a showed biological properties similar to those of shigella dysenteria 1 toxin. the s, flexneri 2a toxin was lethal to mice, enterotoxic for ileal loops of rabbits, and cytotoxic for hela cells. a serological relationship between s. flexneri 2a and s. dysenteriae 1 toxin was shown with cross neutralization tests.1977323142
the pathogenesis of shigella diarrhea. vi. toxin and antitoxin in shigella flexneri and shigella sonnei infections in humans.two strains of shigella flexneri and one of shigella sonnei were studied for toxin production in vitro. all of the three strains produced a cell-free cytotoxin that showed marked similarity to that produced by shigella dysenteriae 1. each toxin eluted in two distinct peaks on chromatography with sephadex g-150, was destroyed by heating at 90 c for 30 min, and was neutralized by s. dysenteriae 1 antitoxin. patients with infections due to s. flexneri and s. sonnei developed antibody that neutraliz ...1977323376
characterization of an r-plasmid associated with ampicillin resistance in shigella dysenteriae type 1 isolated from epidemics.ampicillin-resistant strains of shigella dysenteriae type 1 isolated in epidemics in mexico, central america, and bangla desh were examined for the presence of plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) by gel electrophoresis. all strains contained a heterogeneous population of plasmids. transfer experiments to escherichia coli k-12 indicated that the ampicillin resistance determinant (ap(r)) was located on a 5.5-megadalton (mdal) plasmid identical in all shiga strains examined, as judged by dna hybrid ...1977324394
inhibition of small-intestinal sugar and amino acid transport by the enterotoxin of shigella dysenteriae i.the enterotoxin of shigella dysenteriae i produces fluid and electrolyte secretion in the rabbit ileum. these present studies were designed to evaluate nonelectrolyte transport in rabbit ileal mucosa exposed to shigella enterotoxin. both 10 mm galactose and 5 mm l-alanine absorptions were significantly impaired in enterotoxin-exposed ileal mucosa compared with control mucosa. l-alanine influx was not imparied in two other secretory processes: that induced by cholera enterotoxin and hyperosmolari ...1977324910
pathogenesis of shigella diarrhea. vii. evidence for a cell membrane toxin receptor involving beta1 leads to 4-linked n-acetyl-d-glucosamine oligomers.the binding of shigeua dysenteriae 1 cytotoxin to hela cells in culture and to isolated rat liver cell membranes was studied by means of an indirect consumption assay of toxicity from the medium, or by determination of cytotoxicity to the hela cell monolayer. both liver cell membranes and hela cells removed toxicity from the medium during incubation, in contrast to wi-38 and y-1 mouse adrenal tumor cells, both of which neither bound nor were affected by the toxin. uptake of toxin was directly re ...1977327017
