摘要：

In the Central African Republic, etiological studies of diarrhea have shown that Campylobacter coli accounts for almost 40% of Campylobacter enteric isolations. This prompted us to investigate the antibody response to C. coli infection in children. As expected from the literature on Campylobacter jejuni infections, our results show that both infection and carriage elicited antibodies against glycine-extracted membrane antigens, flagella, and cholera toxin. The human antibody response to C. coli resembles the response to C. jejuni, and this similarity will allow comparative studies on larger numbers of infections, both symptomatic and asymptomatic. Anti-cholera toxin antibodies were directed against both the A and B subunits.
