Abstract
Kidney lesions similar to those in humans with hemolytic-uremic syndrome were observed histologically in 82 of 122 piglets inoculated intragastrically with Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli but not in 29 controls. The locations of lesions matched locations where Stx-2 binding and Gb3 (globotriasylceramide receptors for Stx) were identified immunohistochemically.Entities:
