Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Edema Disease of Swine:

1.	Shiga Toxin 2IBA 02/01/1992 - "An enzymatic mutant of Shiga-like toxin II variant is a vaccine candidate for edema disease of swine." 01/01/1991 - "Reproduction of edema disease of swine with purified Shiga-like toxin-II variant." 03/15/2000 - "These diseases in humans are generally associated with group II family members (SLT-II and SLT-IIc), whereas SLT-IIe (pig edema toxin) is central to edema disease of swine. " 04/01/1989 - "Gnotobiotic piglets inoculated with Escherichia coli serotype O157:H7 strains that produced Shiga-like toxin II developed brain lesions similar to those observed in edema disease of swine, including arteriolar necrosis and malacia. " 09/01/1988 - "A Shiga-like toxin type II variant (SLT-IIv) is produced by strains of Escherichia coli responsible for edema disease of swine and is antigenically related to Shiga-like toxin type II (SLT-II) of enterohemorrhagic E. "
2.	Shiga Toxin 1 (SLT-I)IBA 03/01/1991 - "Thirty-two clinical isolates of Shiga-like toxin (SLT)-producing Escherichia coli associated with single cases or outbreaks of bloody diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis, the hemolytic uremic syndrome, or edema disease of swine were examined for multiple copies of genes belonging to the slt-I or slt-II toxin families. "
3.	Shiga Toxin (Shigella Toxin)IBA 11/01/2014 - "Chicken egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) against Shiga toxin 2e (Stx2e), a major cause of swine edema disease, was prepared to evaluate its possible clinical applications. "
4.	MyoglobinIBA 10/01/1972 - "[Myoglobin metabolism in edema disease of swine]."
5.	Immunoglobulins (Immunoglobulin)IBA 11/01/2014 - "Chicken egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) against Shiga toxin 2e (Stx2e), a major cause of swine edema disease, was prepared to evaluate its possible clinical applications. "
6.	EnterotoxinsIBA 06/15/1977 - "[Enterotoxin-producing E.-coli bacteria in enteritis and edema disease of swine. "
7.	Shiga-Like Toxin IIvIBA 09/01/1988 - "A Shiga-like toxin type II variant (SLT-IIv) is produced by strains of Escherichia coli responsible for edema disease of swine and is antigenically related to Shiga-like toxin type II (SLT-II) of enterohemorrhagic E. "
8.	globotetraosylceramideIBA 06/01/1993 - "Those toxins that are associated with human disease, VT1, VT2, and VT2c, bind to globotriaosyl ceramide (Gb3) while VT2e, which is associated with edema disease of swine, binds preferentially to globotetraosyl ceramide (Gb4). "
9.	IgYIBA 11/01/2014 - "Chicken egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) against Shiga toxin 2e (Stx2e), a major cause of swine edema disease, was prepared to evaluate its possible clinical applications. "
