The liver plays a key role in the detoxification of bacterial endotoxins. To test the hypothesis that bacterial toxins absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract contribute to the extent of acute hepatic injury, carbon tetrachloride was gi... J.P. Nolan,M.V. Ali - 《Journal of Medicine》 被引...
Toxins were the first bacterial virulence factors to be identified and were also the first link between bacteria and cell biology. Cellular microbiology was, in fact, naturally born a long time ago with the study of toxins, and only recently, thanks to the sophisticated new technologies, has it...
Pathogenic bacteria produce cholesterol-dependent cytolysins to form pores in eukaryotic membranes. Here, the authors show that human gut bacteria use a related family of pore-forming toxins for intra- and interspecies antagonism. Hunter L. Abrahamsen ...
What Makes a Canonical Bacterial Protein Toxin: The Definition Generally, a toxin can be defined as a protein, peptide, or other substance which is produced by plants, animals, or pathogenic bacteria, and is highly poisonous for living cells in other organismsi,ii. Bacterialprotein toxinsare sec...
Bacterial toxins produced in the digestive tract, in addition to their effects on the gastrointestinal mucosa, may be transported through the blood circulation and may elicit disorders in other organs. For example, as described previously, Stx is responsible for renal and/or neurological complications...

[47,48].C. difficileis characterized by forming spores that survive in the acidic environment of the stomach lumen and by producing exotoxins when germination occurs in response to exposure to bile acids in the small bowel [47]. The fact that biliary secretions that act as spore germination ...
