The cytolethal distending toxin modulates cell differentiation and elicits epithelial to mesenchymal transition

2022-04-06

Abstract excerpt

We are frequently exposed to bacterial genotoxins, such as cytolethal distending toxin (CDT), a prevalent heterotrimeric toxin whose active moiety is its CdtB subunit. CdtB triggers potent DNA damage, predisposing factors in the development of cancers, in host cells. CDT from Helicobacter hepaticus , a mouse pathogen, was shown to be directly involved in the development of murine hepatocarcinoma. Preliminary stud...
