Camp ylobacter jejuni is a food borne bacterial pathogen. It can produce cytolethal distending toxin, which has cell toxicity and can block the cell cycle at the G2/M boundary. Affected cells enlarge until they finally undergo pro grammed cell death. The toxin is composed of three subunits designated CdtA, CdtB and CdtC. This text will introduce its physicochemical properties, biological functions, mechanism of action and so on.%目的 空肠弯曲菌是一种食源性病原菌,它产生的细胞致死性肿胀毒素具有细胞毒性,能将细胞周期阻断在G2/M期,并最终导致细胞程序性死亡;它由3种多肽CdtA、CdtB和CdtC构成.本文将从空肠弯曲菌细胞致死性肿胀毒素的理化性质、生物学功能和作用机制等方面的研究进展作一介绍.
