Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia Coli is a type of Escherichia coli that can cause Traveler's diarrhea. A number of pathogenic isolates are termed ETEC, but the main hallmarks of this type of bacteria are expression of one or more enterotoxins and presence of fimbriae used for attachment to host intestinal cells. Enterotoxins produced by ETEC include heat-labile enterotoxin and heat-stable enterotoxin. LT is similar to cholera toxin; it increases the level of cAMP in intestinal cells, and this causes an increase in electrolyte and water excretion . ST stimulates production of cGMP, also leading to increased fluid excretion and diarrhea. Because enterotoxic E. coli strains are non-invasive, they do not cause inflammation, bloody diarrhea, or systemic symptoms such as fever.Category:Enterobacteriaja:毒素原性大腸菌 Gastrulation 222177 180225710 2007-12-26T09:04:36Z Mikael Häggström 2615838 /* External links */ rename Gastrulation is a phase early in the development of animal embryos, during which the morphology of the embryo is dramatically restructured by cell migration. Gastrulation varies in different phyla. Gastrulation is followed by organogenesis, when individual organs develop within the newly formed germ layers.
