Pathogenesis of Shigella diarrhea. VII. Evidence for a cell membrane toxin receptor involving beta1 leads to 4-linked N-acetyl-D-glucosamine oligomers.

Only registered users can translate articles

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

Characterization of 20K fimbria, a new adhesin of septicemic and diarrhea-associated Escherichia coli strains, that belongs to a family of adhesins with N-acetyl-D-glucosamine recognition.

Only registered users can translate articles

Bovine septicemic Escherichia coli 31A agglutinates bovine, rabbit, and human erythrocytes and adheres in vitro to the brush border of bovine or ovine intestinal epithelial cells and to the human colon carcinoma Caco-2 cell line. The adhesion and hemagglutination of E. coli 31A are mediated by a

Effects of glucosamine against morphine-induced antinociceptive tolerance and dependence in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

The most important limitations of morphine in pain therapy are its tolerance and dependence. In this study, we evaluated the protective effect of glucosamine against morphine-induced tolerance and dependence in mice.Mice received twice daily morphine (20

Use of glucosamine and chondroitin in persons with osteoarthritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Glucosamine and chondroitin are members of a group of dietary supplements often termed "complementary agents," "disease-modifying agents," or "disease-modifying osteoarthritis drugs" (DMOADs). They are among the best-selling dietary supplements in the United States. DMOADs are thought to act by

Efficacy of glucosamine plus diacerein versus monotherapy of glucosamine: a double-blind, parallel randomized clinical trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

Patented crystalline glucosamine sulfate (pCGS) and diacerein monotherapy have been recommended for treatment of mild to moderate osteoarthritis (OA), but evidence of efficacy for combined treatments is lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare clinical outcomes (i.e., pain and

The structural basis of receptor-binding by Escherichia coli associated with diarrhea and septicemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

GafD in Escherichia coli G (F17) fimbriae is associated with diarrheal disease, and the structure of the ligand-binding domain, GafD1-178, has been determined at 1.7A resolution in the presence of the receptor sugar N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. The overall fold is a beta-barrel jelly-roll fold. The

Pathogenesis of shigella diarrhea: evidence for an N-linked glycoprotein shigella toxin receptor and receptor modulation by beta-galactosidase.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pathogenic mechanisms in infectious diseases often involve specific receptor-ligand interactions of cells and soluble molecules. To further elucidate structure-function relations for shigella toxin receptors, we studied binding of purified 125I-labeled toxin and biologic response under various

Global analysis of posttranscriptional regulation by GlmY and GlmZ in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7.

Only registered users can translate articles

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is a significant human pathogen and is the cause of bloody diarrhea and hemolytic-uremic syndrome. The virulence repertoire of EHEC includes the genes within the locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE) that are largely organized in five operons, LEE1 to LEE5,

Structural Elucidation of the O-Antigen Polysaccharide from Escherichia coli O181.

Only registered users can translate articles

Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is an important pathogen associated to food-borne infection in humans; strains of E. coli O181, isolated from human cases of diarrhea, have been classified as belonging to this pathotype. Herein, the structure of the O-antigen polysaccharide (PS) from E.

Aspartylglucosaminuria in a Canadian family.

Only registered users can translate articles

Aspartylglucosaminuria (McKusick 208400) is a lysosomopathy associated with aspartylglucosaminidase (L-aspartamido-beta-N-acetylglucosamine amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.26) deficiency. It has been most frequently encountered in Finland, where the regional incidence may be as high as 1 in 3600 births. In

Utilization of carbon sources by clinical isolates of Aeromonas.

Only registered users can translate articles

Bacteria in the genus Aeromonas are primarily aquatic organisms; however, some species can cause diseases in humans, ranging from wound infections to septicemia, of which diarrhea is the most common condition. The ability to use a variety of carbon substrates is advantageous for pathogenic bacteria.

Effects of chito-oligosaccharide on piglet jejunal explants: an histological approach.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antibiotics have been widely used in piglet diets to promote growth performance and reduce diarrhea incidence. However, the resistance of pathogens to antibiotics and the risk of residues of antibiotics in animal products induced a growing interest in the use of alternatives to in-feed antibiotics.

Peptidoglycan analysis reveals that synergistic deacetylase activity in vegetative Clostridium difficile impacts the host response

Only registered users can translate articles

Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic and spore-forming bacterium, responsible for 15 to 25% of post-antibiotic diarrhea and 95% of pseudomembranous colitis. Peptidoglycan is a crucial element of the bacterial cell wall that is exposed to the host, making it an important target for the innate

Prevalence and Use of Dietary Supplements Among Pharmacy Students in Saudi Arabia

Only registered users can translate articles

Purpose: Dietary supplements (DSs) are popular in many countries, and their use among individuals is increasing worldwide. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the prevalence and use of DSs among pharmacy students in King Saud University

Safety, pharmacokinetics and sialic acid production after oral administration of N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) to subjects with GNE myopathy.

Only registered users can translate articles

GNE myopathy is a rare, autosomal recessive, inborn error of sialic acid metabolism, caused by mutations in GNE, the gene encoding UDP-N-acetyl-glucosamine-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase. The disease manifests as an adult-onset myopathy characterized by progressive skeletal muscle weakness
