Heterogeneity of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli virulence demonstrated in volunteers.
All 4 EAggEC isolates showed a modest degree of gentamicin protection in HEp-2 cells, and 042 did not express this fimbria as determined by immunogold electron microscopy and genetic probe hybridization.

It is suggested that the minor subunits of class 5 fimbriae may be superior to whole fimbRIae in inducing antiadhesive immunity.

The isolation and cloning of a 1-kilobase fragment from the plasmid ofEAggEC strain 17-2 is described, which should greatly facilitate epidemiologic studies assessing the importance of EAggEC as a diarrheal pathogen.

This study determined the complete genomic sequence of E. coli H10407, a prototypical strain of enterotoxigenic E.coli, which reproducibly elicits diarrhea in human volunteer studies and provided a genetic context for the vast amount of experimental and epidemiological data that have been published.

CYD‐TDV protected against severe VCD and hospitalization for VCD for 5 years in persons who had exposure to dengue before vaccination, and there was evidence of a higher risk of these outcomes in vaccinated people who had not been exposed to d Dengue.

The observation that natural infection did not confer protection during the first 6 months of life poses a challenge to vaccine development.
Epidemiology of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli diarrhea in a pediatric cohort in a periurban area of lower Egypt.

Findings indicate that the epidemiologic patterns of LT-only and ST-only ETEC are not identical and that disease interventions should include improved household sanitation, and ownership of a household sanitary latrine, but not breast-feeding, was associated with a lower risk of both enterotoxin phenotypes.

On the basis of mutational analysis and protein homology data, it is inferred that aggA, aggC, and aggD are involved in biogenesis of AAF/I, encoding a major fimbrial subunit, outer membrane usher, and periplasmic fimbrian chaperone, respectively.
