Shiga toxin-producing E. coli(STEC), also called verotoxinogenic E. coli, usually do not cause disease inanimals but may cause watery diarrhoea, haemorrhagic colitis, and/orhaemolytic uraemic syndrome in humans.

The central role of CD4 + T cells in delayed hypersensitivity is illustrated in patients with AIDS. Because of the loss of CD4 + cells, the host response against intracellular pathogens such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis is markedly impaired. The bacteria are engulfed by macrophages but are not killed.he central role of CD4 + T cells in delayed hypersensitivity is illustrated in patients with AIDS.
