Abstrakt: | This comprehensive review delves into the pathogenicity and detection of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli (STEC), shedding light on its various genetic and clinical manifestations. STEC originating from E. coli acquires pathogenicity through mobility and genetic elements. The pathogenicity of STEC is explored in terms of clinical progression, complications, and key toxins such as Shiga toxin (Stx). Stx1 and Stx2 are two distinct Stx types exhibiting different toxicities, with Stx2 often associated with severe diseases. This review also delves into Subtilase cytotoxin, an additional cytotoxin produced by some STEC strains. Pathogenic mechanisms of STEC, such as attaching and effacing intestinal lesions, are discussed, with a focus on roles of genetic factors. Plasmids in STEC can confer unique pathogenicity. Hybridization with other pathogenic E. coli can create more lethal pathogens. This review covers a range of detection methods, ranging from DNA amplification to antigen detection techniques, emphasizing the need for innovative approaches to improve the sensitivity and speed of STEC diagnosis. In conclusion, understanding diverse aspects of STEC pathogenicity and exploring enhanced diagnostic methods are critical to addressing this foodborne pathogen effectively. Pathology of Shiga toxin toxicity. STEC-derived Shiga toxin consists of one A subunit and five B subunits. Pathological symptoms of the disease can progress to HUS within two weeks after the onset of diarrhea. Shiga toxin intoxication is also associated with many complications, such as neurological and cardiac complications. This figure was reconstructed based on data from Bruyand et al. (© 2023.
