Cryo-EM structures of engineered Shiga toxin-based immunogens capable of eliciting neutralizing antibodies with therapeutic potential against Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
2024-12-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli -associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (STEC-HUS) is a serious disease that causes renal failure predominantly in children. Despite its significant impact, there are currently no licensed vaccines or effective therapies available. The B subunits of Shiga toxins 1 and 2 (Stx1B and Stx2B) are suitable targets for developing neutralizing antibodies, but their...
