Intestinal colonization and adhesion by enterotoxigenic |
|
E. coli is mediated by specific types of pili. These pili |
|
are antigenic and can be used in diagnosing |
|
enterotoxigenic E. coli infections. They are also good |
|
protective antigens. When pregnant dams are vaccinated |
|
parenterally or orally with pili on live piliated |
|
bacteria, they secrete antibodies against the pili in |
|
their milk. Neonates suckling dams so vaccinated are |
|
passively protected against fatal challenge by |
|
enterotoxigenic E. coli. Pili are also good candidate |
|
protective antigens for the development of vaccines to |
|
protect by active immunization. (Author) |
