Heat-Labile Enterotoxin Promotes<i>Escherichia coli</i>Adherence to Intestinal Epithelial Cells
Given recent evidence suggesting that the heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) provides a colonization advantage for enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) in vivo, we hypothesized that LT preconditions the host intestinal epithelium for ETEC adherence. To test this hypothesis, we used an in vitro model of...
