2. Figure 1
Cytotoxic effect of Shiga toxin-1 (Stx-1) on human proximal tubular cells (N = 12 each data point). Cells were incubated with Stx-1 for varying times, followed by determination of neutral red uptake. Symbols are: (○) 24 hr; (•) 48 hr; (▵) 72 hr; (▴) 96hr.

Cytotoxic effect of Shiga toxin-1 (Stx-1) on proliferating Vero cells. N = 12 each data point). Cells were incubated with Stx-1 for varying times, followed by determination of neutral red uptake. Symbols are: (○) 24 hr; (•) 48hr; (▵) 72hr; (▴) 96hr.

Competition binding assay of 125 I-Stx-1 to human proximal tubular cells (•) and proliferating Vero cells (○). N = 6 each data point. Approximately 84,000cpm of 125I-Stx-1 were added per well for 24hours at 4°C, cells washed, solubilized, and bound cpm determined.

5. Figure 4
Total globotriaosyl ceramide (GB3) content in human proximal tubular (Prox. Tub.) and proliferating Vero cells. A standard curve using purified GB3 is shown on the left side of the autoradiogram for comparison. Each experimental lane represents a different cell culture preparation. Details are in the Methods section.

6. Figure 5
Effect of Shiga toxin-1 (Stx-1) on 3H-leucine uptake by human proximal tubular cells. N = 6 each data point. Cells were incubated with Stx-1 for varying times followed by addition of 1 μCi/ml 3H-leucine for 20minutes. Control 3H-leucine uptake was 2208cpm/mg total cell protein or 253cpm/plate. Symbols are: (○) 24 hr; (•) 48 hr; (▵) 72 hr; (▴) 96hr.

7. Figure 6
Effect of IL-1 (A), IL-6 (B), TNF (C), LPS (D), or butyrate (E) on Shiga toxin-1 (Stx-1) (10 -9 g/liter) cytotoxicity on human proximal tubular cells. N = 8 each data point. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; #P < (all P values versus Stx-1 alone). Cells were pre-incubated with inflammatory factors for 24hours prior to exposure to Stx-1 for 72hours and subsequent determination of neutral red uptake. Symbols in A and C are: (▪) 10 U/ml; (□) 100 U/ml; () 1000 U/ml. Symbols in B and E are: (▪) 0.5ng/ml; (□) 2ng/ml; () 5ng/ml. Symbols in D are: (▪) 0.1 μg/ml; (□) 1 μg/ml; () 10 μg/ml.

Effect of 24hours of incubation with 100 U/ml IL-1, 5ng/ml IL-6, 1000 U/ml TNF, 1 μg/ml LPS, or 5mm butyrate on total GB3 content in human proximal tubular cells. N = 6 each data point. *P < versus control. Lanes were loaded with an equal weight of total cellular lipids (details are in the Methods section).
