Das bakteriell sezernierte Kombinom: Wirtsschädigung durch synergistisch-wirkende Exotoxine enterohämorrhagischer Escherichia coli
Enterohämorrhagische Escherichia coli (EHEC) sezernieren einen Cocktail von Exotoxinen, die gemeinsam die intestinal-epitheliale und endotheliale Barriere schädigen und schwere Komplika-tionen wie das hämolytisch urämische Syndrom verursachen. Dieses Projekt zielt auf die Aufklärung des Wechselspiels von Virulenzfaktoren der EHEC-Serotypen O157:H- und O104:H4 und die Rolle, die Wirtsfaktoren bei diesem Prozess spielen, ab. Das Verständnis der Interaktionen der individuellen Determinanten kann zur Entwicklung vorbeugender Maßnahmen und spezifischer Therapien gegen EHEC-Infektionen beitragen.
