<italic toggle="yes">Vibrio cholerae</italic> at the Intersection of Immunity and the Microbiome

ABSTRACT Vibrio cholerae is a noninvasive pathogen that colonizes the small intestine and produces cholera toxin, causing severe secretory diarrhea. Cholera results in long lasting immunity, and recent studies have improved our understanding of the antigenic repertoire of V. cholerae. Interactions b...
