Salmonella enteritidis and Campylobacter jejuni are renown agents of intestinal diseases and exploit their pathogenesis through the expression of toxins. Among these, the key virulence factor expressed by both microbial species is the Cdt (Cytolethal distending toxin), an intracellular toxin that during pathogenesis leads to the host's cell death.

Among these, the key virulence factor expressed by both microbial species is the Cdt (Cytolethal distending toxin), an intracellular toxin that during pathogenesis leads to the host's cell death.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
