Effect of Shiga toxin and Shiga-like toxins on eukaryotic cells
Abstract
Shigella dysenteriae and Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) elaborate the AB holotoxins, Shiga or Shiga-like toxins (Stx). Stx play a major role in the pathogenesis of haemorrhagic colitis and haemolytic uremic syndrome. This review provides an overview of the mechanisms of action of Stx and a model of the pathogenesis of Stx-induced disease.
