Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7: case report

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2008
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is a significant bacterial pathogen of bloody diarrhea. Not only does it cause systemic complications, such as hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) (the most common cause of potentially preventable pediatric ...

Fatal case of hemolytic-uremic syndrome in an adult due to a rare serogroup O91 Entero hemorrhagic Escherichia coli associated with a Clostridium difficile infection. More than meets the eye

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2015
Hemolytic-uremic syndrome due to enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli, belonging to serogroup O91 has rarely been described. We report here a case of post-diarrheal HUS due to EHEC O91 in an elderly patient for whom diagnosis was delayed given a previously

Pathogenesis and evolution of virulence in enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2001
Escherichia coli, a venerable workhorse for biochemical and genetic studies and for the large-scale production of recombinant proteins, is one of the most intensively studied of all organisms. The natural habitat of E. coli is the gastrointestinal tract of warm-blooded animals, and in humans, this species is the most common facultative anaerobe in the ...

PCR versus Hybridization for Detecting Virulence Genes of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
We compared PCR amplification of 9 enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli virulence factors among 40 isolates (21 O/H antigenicity classes) with DNA hybridization. Both methods showed 100% of the chromosomal and phage genes: eae, stx, and stx2.

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli raises the I-BAR [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
Many pathogenic bacteria modulate the host actin assembly machinery to promote infection and spread. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 is a food-borne pathogen that causes severe diarrhea that can be accompanied by hemolytic uremic syndrome with potentially fatal consequences.

Survey on O157:H7 enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) in cattle in Golestan province, Iran

Iranian Journal of Microbiology, 2014
Background and Objectives: A diverse group of Escherichia coli are known as enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) including O157:H7 and non-O157 EHEC. Enterohemorrhagic strains are related to severe clinical conditions in humans including hemorrhagic

Molecular basis of binding between the global post-transcriptional regulator CsrA and the T3SS chaperone CesT

Nature Communications, 2018
CesT is a type III secretion system chaperone that interacts with the post-transcriptional regulator CsrA, which is important for the modulation of post-attachment signaling in enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli.

Prevalence of Non-O157:H7 Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli in Diarrheal Stool Samples from Nebraska

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2000
We determined the prevalence of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in diarrheal stool samples from Nebraska by three methods: cefixime-tellurite sorbitol MacConkey (CT-SMAC) culture, enterohemorrhagic E.

Enteropathogenic bacteria associated with acute diarrheal disease in children

Acta Médica del Centro, 2017
Introduction: bacteria cause between 10% and 20% of infectious diarrheas, many do not self-limit and need specific surveillance and specific treatment against the possibility of a potentially epidemic or virulent agent to avoid dissemination and ...

The Interplay between the Microbiota and Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli

Microbiology Spectrum, 2014
ABSTRACT The gastrointestinal tract of mammals is home to a plethora of microbial species that comprise the microbiota. The role of the microbiota in human health is at the forefront of science in recent years, because it is now appreciated that this intricate microbe-host association shapes the host's immune response and ...
