DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.461
Abstract: Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) produces Shiga toxin 1 (Stx1) and Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2). Nitric oxide (NO), which acts as an antimicrobial defense molecule, was found to enhance the production of Stx1 and Stx2 in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-0716-1339-9_16
Abstract: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) produce a number of virulence factors that interfere with lymphocyte functions, including mitogen- and antigen-activated proliferation and pro-inflammatory cytokine synthesis. Here we describe how to isolate lymphocyte subsets from bovine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-0716-1339-9_3
Abstract: Today, whole genome sequencing (WGS)-based typing is the gold standard approach to detect outbreaks of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and to differentiate them from sporadic cases. Here, we describe an optimized protocol to efficiently… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00249-020-01461-w
Abstract: Gb3 glycosphingolipids are the specific receptors for bacterial Shiga toxin. Whereas the trisaccharidic head group of Gb3 defines the specificity of Shiga toxin binding, the lipophilic part composed of sphingosine and different fatty acids is… read more here.
