  • Title: Lack of Shiga-like cytotoxin production by enteroinvasive Escherichia coli.
    Author: Cleary TG, Murray BE.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1988 Oct; 26(10):2177-9. PubMed ID: 3053767.
    Abstract:
    Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli has not been extensively studied for cytotoxin production. We evaluated 30 well-characterized enteroinvasive E. coli strains of all the known invasive serogroups from several geographic regions for their ability to produce Shiga-like cytotoxic activity assayed in a HeLa cell system. None of these strains produced cytotoxic activity that was neutralizable with antibody to Shiga-like toxin I or II.
