Interactions between Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and Gut Commensals at the Interface of Human Colonoids [PDF]

mBio, 2022
The interactions between the gut microbiota and pathogens are complex and can determine the outcome of an infection. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is a major human enteric pathogen that colonizes the colon through attaching and effacing (AE ...

Infection due to Shiga toxin-producing enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) presenting as ischemic colitis [PDF]

IDCases, 2019
Infections due to Shiga toxin-producing enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are often mild and self-limiting, but more severe cases can develop into hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and hemorrhagic colitis. This case report documents a sporadic case

Migratory Birds Facilitate the Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Pathogenic Escherichia coli in Tanguar Haor of Bangladesh. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Transmission dynamics of multidrug‐resistant pathogenic Escherichia coli in Tanguar Haor. ABSTRACT This study investigated the occurrence of pathogenic and multidrug‐resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli in migratory birds inhabiting wetland habitats. A total of 167 freshly voided faecal samples were collected from migratory birds during the winters of 2023

Prevalence, Antimicrobial Susceptibility, and Hygienic Practices of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in Raw Meat, Bahir Dar City, Ethiopia. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Escherichia coli O157:H7 was detected in 28.4% of raw meat samples from Bahir Dar City, with 47.6% of isolates carrying at least one stx1 or eaeA virulence gene. Poor hygiene practices and antimicrobial resistance highlight the need for strengthened meat safety surveillance and intervention. ABSTRACT Introduction Escherichia coli O157: H7 is a globally

Type VI secretion system degeneration accelerates intestinal epithelial cell death in Escherichia coli O157:H7. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a specific protein secretion apparatus that contributes to bacterial virulence. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EHEC) harbors multiple prophages and can cause severe human diseases worldwide.
