Yersiniosis in children.

Abstract

Nine strains produced an enterotoxin demonstrable in newborn mouse assay. Toxin production may be an additional pathogenic mechanism in human yersiniosis.

The cytologic diagnosis of epithelioid myxofibrosarcoma: A case report

“…Similarly, morphological changes, including swollen mitochondria, have been observed in epithelial cells infected with Campylobacter jejuni and Yersinia entercolitica as well as in macrophages infected with Salmonella typhimurium. 43, 44 Findings from murine models corroborate these data and show that murine epithelial cells display deranged mitochondria structure after infection with Citrobacter rodentium. 45 Moreover, dissociation of proteins from the tight junctions in combination with a reduction in ATP production has been observed in the human colon‐derived CaCo2 epithelial cell line after infection with rotavirus.…”

Inhibition of Folate Metabolism in Chemotherapy

“…Studies by GUTMAN et al (1973b), MAKI et al (1980 have shown that all of 78 strains tested were sensitive to TMP/SMX. As demonstrated by the frequency of chronic diarrhea as a presentation, the disease does not appear to be rapidly self-limited.…”

Persistierende Lymphadenitis mesenterialis durch Yersinia enterocolitica

“…Die humanpathogenen Spezies Yersinia enterocolitica und Yersinia pseudotubercolosis können klinisch identische Krankheitsbilder hervorrufen [6,8,14,16,22]. Über die im Kindesalter charakteristischen Manifestationsformen sowie deren Symptomatik herrscht Überein-stimmung [1,8,17,19].…”

“…3). 16 Wochen nach Beginn der Ciprofloxacintherapie waren die IgA-Antikörper gegen äußere Yersiniamemten Titer ab 1:100 [1,10,20] sowie Titeranstiege um das 2-bis 4fache [21,22]. Limitierend für die Bewertung sind allerdings auch in der Normalbevölke-rung vorhandene und nach einer Erkrankung längere Zeit nachweisbare Titer in einer Größenordnung wie bei unserer Patientin [2,10,15,20].…”
