Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractColourimetric Determination of Phospholipase Activities in Balamuthia mandrillarisSyed Razi HaiderBalamuthia mandrillaris is a recently identified protozoan pathogen that can cause fatal granulomatous encephalitis however the pathogenesis and pathophysiology associated with Balamuthia encephalitis remain unclear. We have recently isolated B. mandrillaris from a 33-years old male who died of encephalitis. Using this isolate, we demonstrated for the first time that B. mandrillaris exhibited phospholipase activities. More specifically, B. mandrillaris exhibited … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,771 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVibrio cholerae O1 Strains of Different Ribotypes have Similar hlyA RFLP Patterns but Different Vacuolating AbilityJorge E. Vidal, Paula Figueroa-Arredondo, Silvia Giono-Cerezo et al.Extensive cytoplasmic vacuolation on Vero and HeLa cells in vitro by the Vibrio cholerae pore forming toxin HlyA, has been previously reported by our group. Vibrio cholerae O1 and non-O1 pathogenic strains show differences in the potential to induce vacuolation, here we study occurring variations on vacuolating cytotoxic ability, related to changes in the nucleotide sequence of the hlyA-orf. A … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,984 accessesView PDFCite
