Global Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) Lineages. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Microbiol Rev, 2019
Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) strains are responsible for a majority of human extraintestinal infections globally, resulting in enormous direct medical and social costs. ExPEC strains are comprised of many lineages, but only a subset is responsible for the vast majority of infections.

Adhesive threads of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesGut Pathogens, 2009
The ability to adhere to host surfaces is by far the most vital step in the successful colonization by microbial pathogens. Colonization begins with the attachment of the bacterium to receptors expressed by cells forming the lining of the mucosa.

Chicken as Reservoir for Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli in Humans, Canada

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
We previously described how retail meat, particularly chicken, might be a reservoir for extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) causing urinary tract infections (UTIs) in humans.

Extra-intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli: A combination of virulence with antibiotic resistance. [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Escherichia coli represents an incredible versatile and diverse enterobacterial species and can be subdivided into the following; i) intestinal non-pathogenic, commensal isolates. ii) intestinal pathogenic isolates and iii) extraintestinal pathogenic or

Characteristics, pathogenic mechanism, zoonotic potential, drug resistance, and prevention of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Although most Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains are commensal and abundant, certain pathogenic strains cause severe diseases from gastroenteritis to extraintestinal infections. Extraintestinal pathogenic E.

Non-lactose fermenting Escherichia coli: Following in the footsteps of lactose fermenting E. coli high-risk clones

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Multi-resistant pathogenic strains of non-lactose fermenting Escherichia coli (NLF E. coli) are responsible for various intestinal and extraintestinal infections.

Pathogenicity Factors of Genomic Islands in Intestinal and Extraintestinal Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Escherichia coli is a versatile bacterial species that includes both harmless commensal strains and pathogenic strains found in the gastrointestinal tract in humans and warm-blooded animals. The growing amount of DNA sequence information generated in the era of "genomics" has helped to increase our understanding of the factors and mechanisms involved ...

Fitness Tradeoffs of Antibiotic Resistance in Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2018
Evolutionary trade-offs occur when selection on one trait has detrimental effects on other traits. In pathogenic microbes, it has been hypothesized that antibiotic resistance trades off with fitness in the absence of antibiotic. Although studies of single resistance mutations support this hypothesis, it is unclear whether trade-offs are maintained over
