Targeting aminopeptidase N, a newly identified receptor for F4ac fimbriae, enhances the intestinal mucosal immune response

, 2012
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are a major cause of diarrhea in human and animal. In piglets, ETEC having F4 fimbriae (F4(+) ETEC) induce severe diarrhea, dependent on the presence of receptors for F4 (F4R). In this study, porcine aminopeptidase

Type 1 fimbriae deliver an LPS- and TLR4-dependent activation signal to CD14-negative cells

, 2001
Fimbriae target bacteria to different mucosal surfaces and enhance the inflammatory response at these sites. Inflammation may be triggered by the fimbriae themselves or by fimbriae-dependent delivery of other host activating molecules such as ...

Pathogenesis of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae : role of toxins and fimbriae [PDF]

, 2003
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae causes porcine pleuropneumonia, a disease that occurs world-wide and affects growing pigs of all ages. Infection of pigs with A. pleuropneumoniae can result in high morbidity and mortality.

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli adhere to urinary catheters without using fimbriae

, 1996
Five well-characterized urinary and fecal isolates of Escherichia coli were found to be hydrophilic irrespective of their serotypes and their ability to express fimbriae.

The oral fimbriae of the lamprey Geotria australis

, 1979
The frond-like fimbriae surrounding the oral disc of the lamprey, Geotria australis, have been examined in living specimens, and by using histological, histochemical and ultra-structural techniques.
