Characterization of an invasive phenotype associated with enteroaggregative Escherichia coli [PDF]
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAggEc) strains are associated with persistent diarrhea in children in the developing world and exhibit a classic aggregative phenotype. We have demonstrated that EAggEc strains isolated from children with persistent diarrhea in Brazil, Bangladesh, and Pakistan also have the potential to be internalized by HeLa cells

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is increasingly used. However, no systematic approach exists to assess infectious risks after FMT, leading to underreporting. We evaluated infectious complications at the Netherlands Donor Feces Bank (NDFB) and proposed a structured biovigilance approach aligned with the EU Regulation

Association of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli with irritable bowel syndrome [PDF]
Increased numbers of faecal Enterobacteriaceae are observed among patients with irritable bowel syndrome. Escherichia coli strains are present in the lower intestine of humans, and may include several potentially pathogenic adhesive pathotypes. The aim of this study was to determine whether there were differences between the adhesive pathotypes of E ...

Tibetan pig farms host diverse Escherichia coli strains that resist multiple antibiotics and carry important disease genes, such as astA. These traits jump easily between bacterial groups, marking intensive pig production as a key reservoir and signalling the need for integrated animal–human surveillance and more careful antibiotic use.

Expression of membrane-associated proteins by strains of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli
Certain strains of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli express an outer membrane-associated protein, involved with the adhesion of these bacteria to HEp-2 cells. Strains of enteroaggregative E.

In 2011, a large outbreak of infections caused by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O104:H4 occurred in Germany. This exceptionally virulent strain combined virulence factors of enteroaggregative E. coli (EAggEC) and STEC.

An investigation of the diversity of strains of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli isolated from cases associated with a large multi-pathogen foodborne outbreak in the UK. [PDF]
Following a large outbreak of foodborne gastrointestinal (GI) disease, a multiplex PCR approach was used retrospectively to investigate faecal specimens from 88 of the 413 reported cases. Gene targets from a range of bacterial GI pathogens were detected,

Phylogenetic Analysis of Enteroaggregative and Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli [PDF]
ABSTRACT The phylogenetics of the various pathotypes of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli are not completely understood. In this study, we identified several plasmid and chromosomal genes in the pathogenic enteroaggregative E.

This study integrates genomic epidemiology and machine learning–based virtual screening to identify novel therapeutic candidates, Alatamide and Isosativan, with strong binding stability against multidrug‐resistant diarrheagenic Escherichia coli virulence targets, highlighting computational drug discovery as a promising strategy to combat antimicrobial ...
