Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC)

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2005
Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli has since the last 2 decades been known to cause severe and bloody diarrhoea as well as haemorrhagic colitis (HC) and haemorrhagic uraemic syndrome (HUS) especially among children. The importance of screening for EHEC among children and older patients with severe symptoms is apparent. Production of the verocytotoxins

Subversion of actin dynamics by EPEC and EHEC

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2006
During the course of infection, enteropathogenic and enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EPEC and EHEC, respectively) subvert the host cell signalling machinery and hijack the actin cytoskeleton to tighten their interaction with the gut epithelium, while avoiding phagocytosis by professional phagocytes.

A sticky business in EHEC pathogenesis

Trends in Microbiology, 2002
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) serotype O157:H7 is the agent responsible for numerous outbreaks of bloody diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome throughout the world. Thus far, only two pathogenic mechanisms have been established for EHEC: the production of Shiga toxins and attaching and effacing (AE) lesions.

[Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)].

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2013
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a bacterium that is commonly found in the gut of humans and warm-blooded animals. Most strains of E. coli are harmless. Some strains however, such as enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), can cause severe foodborne disease. It is transmitted to humans primarily through consumption of contaminated foods, such as raw meal.

Escherichia Coli: EAEC, EHEC, EIEC, ETEC

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1999
There are at least four different ways in which E. coli can cause diarrheal disease: invasion of the intestinal epithelium, enterotoxin production, STx production, and adherence with disruption of the normal functioning of the intestinal epithelium. Fecally contaminated food and water are the source of E. coli infections in humans.
