Definitions

  • compositions for combatting diarrhoea Compositions for combatting diarrhoea
  • V. cholearae ⁇ .coli appears to be the main procreator. No reliable figures are known with respect to slaughter cattle but the loss will certainly run into a year.
  • Enterotoxic E.coii stems distinguish themselves from commensal non-patho ⁇ eneous stems in that they comprise two important virulence factors, to wit: the production of enterotoxins and the presence of adhesion antigens.
  • the adhesion antigens of ⁇ .coli consist of electron microscopically visible thread-like appendixes on the bacterium surface indicated as fi briae or pili. Said fimbriae appear to be consisting of hundreds of identical protein sub-units having a molecular weight in the order of magnitude of 25,000. Through the fimbriae the bacterium appears to be capable of colonizing .the intestinalepitheliumand of proliferating the intestine in this way. As soon as the colonisation is effected the produced and excreted enterotoxin causes the development of diarrhoea.
  • K88 One of the adhesion antigens in enterotoxic E.coli- stems from piglets is indicated as K88.
  • Three variants of the K88 adhesine are known which can properly be immunologically distinguished.
  • the primary structure of the subunit,of which the adhesine is composed, of each of said variants has been completely elucidated by us.
  • conserved areas identical amino acid sequences in the subunit variants
  • variable amino acid sequences appear to be present on certain sites in which the three variants distinguish themselves from - . -
  • each variant fragment can be isolated which can block the binding of the adhesine carrying bacteria to erythrocytes (haemagglutination reaction) or to intestinal epithelial cells in low concentrations. Said fragments originate from the conserved parts of the subunit variants. Analysis of three isolated fragments showed that there is question here of the following tripeptides: serine-leucine-phenylalanine, isoleucine-alanine-phenylalanine and alanine-isoleucine- phenylalanine. Said peptides are resistant to decomposition by proteolytic enzymes from the gastro-intestinai tract.
  • amino acid sequences are present on certain sites which show a strong affinity for the adhesine receptors. Said amino acid sequences, therefore, possibly form an essential part of the natural receptor binding site.
  • the possibly occurring absorption of said substances by the intestinal epithelium can be prevented by coupling said substances to inert macromolecular carriers.
  • compositions according to the invention can also be used with adults to combat diarrhoea caused by enterotoxic E.coli-stems.
