Spontaneous Phage Resistance in Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is one of the most important bacterial pathogens affecting poultry worldwide. The emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens has renewed the interest in the therapeutic use of bacteriophages (phages).

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) and uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC): characterization and comparison

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2021
Introduction: Avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) and uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) are responsible for avian colibacillosis and human urinary tract infections, respectively. There are genetic similarities between the APEC and UPEC pathotypes, suggesting the

Virulence - associated genes in Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli of turkey [PDF]

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
50 Escherichia coli (APEC-Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli) strains and 15 E. coli (AFEC-Avian Faecal Escherichia coli) from turkeys affected by colibacillosis and from healthy turkeys were tested for the presence of eight different virulence-associated

Pathogenicity of FtsK mutant of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2016
Introduction: Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is a leading cause of extraintestinal infection and heavy economic losses. Imparting immunity after vaccination with live attenuated strain vaccination is an ideal strategy for infection control ...

The response regulator OmpR contributes to the pathogenicity of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli

Poultry Science, 2022
: Avian colibacillosis is a serious systemic infectious disease in poultry and caused by avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC). Previous studies have shown that 2-component systems (TCSs) are involved in the pathogenicity of APEC.

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli: diagnosis, virulence and prevention.

Archives of Veterinary Medicine, 2019
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) causes colibacillosis within poultry flocks all around the world. There is a number of virulence mechanisms involved in the disease process in poultry and determination of some of the responsible genes is ...

Fosfomycin Resistance in Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli Isolates

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
Fosfomycin, a broad-spectrum antibiotic against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, is very important in the clinic but many fosfomycin-resistant bacteria have been isolated from patients.

Genome evolution and the emergence of pathogenicity in avian Escherichia coli [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2021
AbstractChickens are the most common birds on Earth and colibacillosis is among the most common diseases affecting them. This major threat to animal welfare and safe sustainable food production is difficult to combat because the etiological agent, avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC), emerges from ubiquitous commensal gut bacteria, with no single ...

The bird’s immune response to avian pathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

Avian Pathology, 2021
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) cause colibacillosis in birds, a syndrome of severe respiratory and systemic disease that constitutes a major threat due to early mortality, condemnation of carcasses and reduced productivity. APEC can infect different types of birds in all commercial settings, and birds of all ages, although disease tends to be
