TL;DR: All 4 EAggEC isolates showed a modest degree of gentamicin protection in HEp-2 cells, and 042 did not express this fimbria as determined by immunogold electron microscopy and genetic probe hybridization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pet, an Autotransporter Enterotoxin from Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli
Carlos Eslava,Fernando Navarro-Garcia,Fernando Navarro-Garcia,John R. Czeczulin,Ian R. Henderson,Alejandro Cravioto,James P. Nataro +6 more
TL;DR: The Pet toxin, encoded on the 65-MDa adherence-related plasmid of EAEC strain 042, represents the first enterotoxin within the autotransporter class of secreted proteins, and it is hypothesize that other closely related members of this class may also produce enterotoxic effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The gene encoding EAST1 is more broadly distributed among diarrheogenic E. coli than previously known and may represent an additional determinant in the pathogenesis of E. Escherichia coli diarrhea.

TL;DR: The isolation of both V. cholerae O1 and non-O1/O139 early in the Haiti cholera epidemic from samples collected from victims in 18 towns across eight Arrondissements of Haiti showed two distinct populations of V.cholerae coexisted, and its role in this epidemic, either alone or in concert with V.Cholera O1, cannot be dismissed.
