The mortality and morbidity of salmonella infections is seriously underestimated. Salmonella myocarditis is an unusual complication of salmonella sepsis in adults. Cases that do occur may be associated with high morbidity and mortality. We present a rare case of salmonella myocarditis with
Flagellin, a major structural component of bacteria flagella, is responsible for facilitating motility and invading host cells. The binding capacity of flagellin to toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) and its trigger action for innate immunity make it an attractive vaccine adjuvant. In this work, we
A 53-year-old man died on the eight day of an acute enteritis caused by Salmonella typhimurium. Clinical signs of shock were pronounced; the electrocardiogram, initially not pathological, showed a peripheral low voltage with decreased R-amplitudes and distinct disturbances in repolarization.
OBJECTIVE
To construct an attenuated Salmonella choleraesuis vaccine strain expressing the gene SLT-IIeB and FedF of Shiga-like toxin Escherichia coli (SLTEC) O138 with balanced lethal system.
METHODS
The gene of SLT-IIeB and FedF of SLTEC O138 was amplified, and then recombined with a vector
Salmonella species have recently been shown to involve the colon in a diffuse fashion resembling ulcerative colitis by radiographic and endoscopic appearance. We describe a case of Salmonella colitis in which the radiographic and colonoscopic features were focal ulcerations, mucosal edema,
BACKGROUND
In the pathogenicity of porcine edema disease (ED), which is caused by the Escherichia coli-producing F18 and Shiga toxin, F18+ fimbrial adhesins and Shiga toxin 2e (Stx2e) play pivotal roles in the colonization and enterotoxicity of this pathogen.
OBJECTIVE
To develop a vaccine candidate
An experimental infection with Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium was evaluated in gnotobiotic mice previously exposed to a plasmid-free non-pathogenic Escherichia coli (EMO strain). Mice were exposed to EMO (experimental) or not (control) 10 days before challenge with
BACKGROUND
Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) inactivated by a regulated autolysis system was genetically engineered to express the homo-pentameric B subunit of Shiga toxin 2e (Stx2eB) on its surface. To prepare a strain able to yield autolyzed Salmonella bearing Stx2eB, the plasmid pJHL184
Invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) infections are rare in developed countries but their incidence is increasing. One of the most severe complications of extraintestinal NTS infection is mycotic aneurysm. Its natural course is usually fatal and its treatment demands complex interdisciplinary
A male in his early seventies complained of abdominal pain and diarrhea at 7h after ingesting a small piece of gratin from a box lunch prepared by a caterer. He was admitted to a hospital, but died 37 h later. Dozens of people who had eaten the same box lunch also complained of diarrhea. All of them
Rapid ascent to high altitude may be associated with the development of high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) in susceptible individuals. Because lung lavage fluid obtained from such patients can be rich in protein and neutrophils, we considered that an element of lung injury and inflammation
Edema syndrome is highly prevalent but under researched in captive frogs around the world. The objective of the present study was to characterize at a basic microbiological and cytological level of the bacteria of the edema fluid of 20 individuals of the genus Gastrotheca to determine High altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) is associated with increases in pulmonary arterial and hydrostatic pressures and an increase in pulmonary vascular permeability. There is evidence to suggest that inflammatory mediators may cause some forms of HAPE, and Salmonella enteritidis endotoxin (ETX) is
Enteric salmonella infections are common in the United States though nonenteric salmonella infections in immunocompetent adults are exceedingly rare in the United States, and meningitis is one of the least common extra-intestinal sites. In addition, it is very unusual for a patient with bacterial
