additional information | protection of mice against Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2)-associated damage by maternal immunization with a Brucella lumazine synthase-Stx2 B subunit chimera. The enzyme can be useful in vaccine development against enterohemorrhagic Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (EHEC), which causes a prodromal hemorrhagic enteritis, remaining the most common etiology of the typical or epidemic form of hemolytic-uremic syndrome. The EHEC challenge contributes to sustain a specific and protective immune response against Stx2 | Brucella sp. |
