Abstract
The effects of the thermolabile (LT) and thermostable (ST) enterotoxins and the Vero cell (VT) toxin of E. coli were studied in continuous cell lines in tissue culture. The LT enterotoxin induced morphological changes in mouse adrenal (Y-1), Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) and African green monkey kidney (Vero) cells. VT toxin produced cytotoxic effects in adult rhesus monkey kidney (LLC-MK2), human embryonic foreskin (HFS) and Vero cells. The ST enterotoxin had no effect on any of the cell lines.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
