The Shiga toxin comprises a family of related protein toxins produced by bacteria Shigella dysenteriae. The bacteria S. dysenteriae was discovered by Japanese bacteriologist Kiyoshi Shiga in 1898. Shiga studied 36 patients at the Institute for Infectious Diseases (Tokyo‚ Japan) and isolated a bacterium from the intestinal tissue of dysentery patient. Bacterial isolates were cultured and fed to dogs; that resulted in dysenteric disease (Shiga‚ 1898). Shigella belongs to enterobacteriaceae bacterial

Daclizumab (Biogen Idec and Abbott Biotherapeutics Corp.) is a humanized mAb acting as a blocker of the α-subunit (CD25) of the high-affinity IL-2 receptor [19]. IL-2 is secreted by activated lymphocytes and stimulates production of other proinflammatory cytokines while it is also involved in lymphocytic proliferation. Daclizumab was initially approved for the prevention of renal allograft rejection as part of a combination regimen and evidence was progressively accumulated showing that this drug
