Entertoxin LTB
Diarrheal diseases caused by Vibrio cholera and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are worldwide health problems that might be prevented with vaccines based on edible plants expressing the B subunit from either the cholera toxin (CTB) or the E. coli heat labile toxin (LTB). The E. coli heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) is the major ETEC pathogenic factor. LT subunit B (LTB) is of special interest because its immunogenicity, adjuvant activity and lack of toxicity make it a viable antigen to vaccinate against ETEC diarrhea.
