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.

[Managing EHEC in hospital routine].

Deutsche medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 2012
During May and June 2011 an outbreak of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) occurred in Germany. More than 4000 patients were infected of which 800 developed hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) as a severe complication. Reports in the press led to great concern in the general population.

[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.

Partial inhibition of amplifications by primers of EHEC genes.

Acta microbiologica et immunologica Hungarica, 1998
Diagnostic value of multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was examined by using three primer pairs, specific for the common conserved region of stx1 and stx2, eae and an enterohaemolysin A gene (ehxA). The sensitivity in respect of each amplicon decreased with three exponents comparing to the individual PCR reactions.

EHEC O157 from A to T: EHEC O157:H7 epidemiology supplemented with long-read sequencing

2021
Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EHEC O157) is a key zoonotic pathogen responsible for large food-borne outbreaks worldwide. Whole genome sequencing is a relatively novel technology being utilised by Public Health agencies to determine isolate relationship and inform outbreak investigations.

RKI guideline to EHEC infections Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are the third most common bacterial gastroenteritis pathogens reported according to the IfSG. An infection can occur in various ways, in particular through contact with animals, consumption of contaminated food, or human-to-human transmission.

[New regulations concerning EHEC/VTEC].

Lakartidningen, 2017
New regulations concerning EHEC/VTEC Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) is the most severe complication to an infection with EHEC (enterohemorrhagic E. coli), also called VTEC (verocytotoxin-producing E. coli). Risk of severe complications such as HUS is an important reason why the Swedish Communicable Diseases Act (Smittskyddslag.
