Heat-Stable Enterotoxin Secretions Assessed via ICP-MS Reveal Iron-Mediated Regulation of Virulence in CFA/I- and CS6-Expressing ETEC Isolates
Enterotoxigenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> (ETEC) are a significant cause of childhood diarrhea in low-resource settings. ETEC are defined by the production of heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) and/or heat-labile enterotoxin (LT), which alter intracellular cyclic nucleotide signaling and cause t...
