Escherichia coli O157:H7-related vascular damage such as hemolytic uremic syndrome is believed to require the Shiga-like toxins. This study demonstrated that sodium butyrate sensitized human umbilical vein endothelial cells to Shiga toxin and increased the expression of Shiga toxin receptor, globotriaosylceramide (Gb3), on human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
诸如溶血尿毒综合征之类的与大肠杆菌O157:H7相关的血管损伤被认为需要志贺样毒素。本研究表明,丁酸钠使人类脐静脉内皮细胞对志贺毒素敏感,并增加了人类脐静脉内皮细胞上志贺毒素受体——球三糖神经酰胺(Gb3)的表达。
