Epithelial cell signaling responses to enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli infection

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2005
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli, including the serotype O157:H7 that is most commonly identified with human disease, cause both sporadic cases and outbreaks of non-bloody diarrhea and hemorrhagic colitis.

EPEC autotransporter adhesin (Eaa): a novel adhesin identified in atypical enteropathogenic Escherichia coli

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a pathogen that causes diarrhea that can be subdivided into typical (tEPEC) and atypical (aEPEC), based on the production of an adhesin termed Bundle-Forming Pilus (BFP) in the former group. aEPEC is one of the main bacterial pathogens isolated from individuals with diarrhea, and some serotypes have been ...

Parenteral vaccination with recombinant EtpA glycoprotein impairs enterotoxigenic E. coli colonization

Infection and Immunity
Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) causes hundreds of millions of cases of acute diarrheal illness in low- and middle-income regions, disproportionately in young children.

Zoonotic Escherichia coli infections: Pathogenic variants, mechanism of disease, transmission routes, and foodborne outbreaks

Letters in Animal Biology
Escherichia coli is a gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium with diverse pathogenic strains. Most strains of E. coli are motile and capable of causing infections in humans, small and large ruminants, and birds. The zoonotic E.

Targeting fimbriae adhesin of porcine enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli by isoliquiritigenin

International Journal of Medical Microbiology
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), a predominant pathogen responsible for neonatal animal diarrhea, poses a significant threat to global health and results in considerable economic losses in animal husbandry. The pathogenicity of ETEC is primarily mediated by its adherence to intestinal epithelial cells via fimbriae adhesins and the subsequent ...

Comparative Genomics of Three Hybrid-Pathogen Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli Strains Isolated from Healthy Donors’ Feces

Microbiology Research
The present study shows the genomic characterization of three pathogenic Escherichia coli hybrid strains. All strains were previously characterized as diarrheagenic pathotypes (DEC), obtained from feces. The three sequenced strains have genes that encode

Pathogenic Factors of Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology
The Shigatoxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) are bacterial enteropathogens responsible for some intensive clinical syndromes such as bloody diarrhoea, hemorrhagic colitis, hemolytic uremic syndrome, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, and renal failure ...

Vaccines against extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC): progress and challenges

Gut Microbes
The emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a principal global health crisis projected to cause 10 million deaths annually worldwide by 2050. While the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli is commonly found as a commensal microbe in the human ...

Molecular characterization of Escherichia coli virulence markers in neonatal and postweaning piglets from major pig-producing districts of Uganda

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Piggery production is highly constrained by diseases, with diarrhoea in piglets being a major cause of economic losses to smallholder farmers in Uganda.
