Autotransporters and virulence of enteroaggregativeE. coli [PDF]

Gut Microbes, 2011
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is an emerging pathogen associated with acute and persistent diarrhea in children and adults. EAEC strains are very heterogeneous and the pathogenesis of EAEC diarrhea is complex and not completely understood. Studies have suggested three major features of EAEC pathogenesis: abundant adherence to the intestinal

The Escherichia coli Efflux Pump TolC Promotes Aggregation of Enteroaggregative E. coli 042 [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 2008
ABSTRACT Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is an emerging enteric pathogen in both developing and industrialized countries. EAEC is defined as a diarrheal pathogen based on its characteristic aggregative adherence to HEp-2 cells in culture and its biofilm formation on the intestinal mucosa. We have

Bacterial-epithelial contact is a key determinant of host innate immune responses to enteropathogenic and enteroaggregative escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Enteropathogenic (EPEC) and Enteroaggregative (EAEC) E. coli have similar, but distinct clinical symptoms and modes of pathogenesis. Nevertheless when they infect the gastrointestinal tract, it is thought that their flagellin causes IL-8 ...

Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strains secrete a heat-labile toxin antigenically related to E. coli hemolysin [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1992
A protein toxin of approximately 120,000 Da secreted by nonhemolytic enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strains cross-reacted in Western blots (immunoblots) with antibodies raised against the C-terminal region of E. coli hemolysin. Treatment of HEp-2 cells with enteroaggregative E.

The commonly-used DNA probe for diffusely-adherent Escherichia coli cross-reacts with a subset of enteroaggregative E. coli [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2009
Abstract Background The roles of diffusely-adherent Escherichia coli (DAEC) and enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC) in disease are not well understood, in part because of the limitations of diagnostic tests for each of these categories of diarrhoea-causing E. coli.

Investigation of multidrug-resistant fatal colisepticaemia in weanling pigs

Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2015
Escherichia coli is usually a benign commensal of the gut microflora. However, when E. coli acquires virulence genes it can multiply rapidly and cause disease through colonisation of the intestinal mucosa.

Correlation between in vivo biofilm formation and virulence gene expression in Escherichia coli O104:H4. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The emergence of novel pathogens poses a major public health threat causing widespread epidemics in susceptible populations. The Escherichia coli O104:H4 strain implicated in a 2011 outbreak in northern Germany caused the highest frequency of hemolytic ...

Escherichia coli O104 Associated with Human Diarrhea, South Africa, 2004–2011

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
To determine the origin of >4,000 suspected diarrheagenic Escherichia coli strains isolated during 2004–2011 in South Africa, we identified 7 isolates as serotype O104; 5 as enteroaggregative E. coli O104:H4, and 2 as enteropathogenic E. coli O104:non-H4.
