Detection of FimH Gene in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strains Isolated From Patients With Urinary Tract Infection [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of main health problems caused by many microorganisms, including uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). UPEC strains are the most frequent pathogens responsible for 85% and 50% of community and hospital

Vaccination approaches for the prevention of urinary tract infection [PDF]

, 2013
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common infectious diseases of humans, with approximately 150 million cases estimated to occur globally every year. UTIs usually start as a bladder infection (cystitis), but can develop into acute kidney

Molecular Characterisation of Escherichia coli Collected From an Urban River in Johannesburg, South Africa

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
Escherichia coli isolates from the Jukskei River in Johannesburg, South Africa, are genetically diverse, indicating multiple contamination sources and potential cross‐environmental transmission between the river, humans and livestock. Moreover, the presence of pathogenic E.

Escherichia coli-mediated impairment of ureteric contractility is uropathogenic E. coli specific. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Ureters are fundamental for keeping kidneys free from uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), but we have shown that 2 strains (J96 and 536) can subvert this role and reduce ureteric contractility. To determine whether this is (1) a widespread

Secretory IgA Is a Key Marker Among Gut Barrier Dysfunction‐Related Immunoglobulins Predicting Outcomes in ACLF

Liver International, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims In cirrhosis, impaired gut mucosal immunity facilitates bacterial translocation (BT) instigating the proinflammatory cascade that exacerbates hepatic damage. The role of antibody‐mediated immunity in this process remains unclear.

Screening of antigenic epitopes related to the adhesion of the avian Escherichia coli Type 1 Fimbrial Agglutinin Domain

BMC Veterinary Research, 2023
Background Avian Escherichia coli (E.coli) type 1 fimbriae adhere to avian tracheal epithelial cells through the FimH protein. However, the adhesion-related antigen is still unknown. The purpose of this study was to analyze the antigenicity of the type 1

Dimeric and trimeric fusion proteins generated with fimbrial adhesins of uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the main etiologic agent.

Photoaffinity labeling coupled to MS to identify peptide biological partners: Secondary reactions, for better or for worse?

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 715-756, September/October 2025.
Abstract Affinity photolabeling is a smart method to study noncovalent and transient interactions and provide a submolecular picture of the contacts between interacting partners. In this review, we will focus on the identification of peptide partners using photoaffinity labeling coupled to mass spectrometry in different contexts such as in vitro with a

Dynamic Combinatorial Chemistry Generates Adaptative Libraries of Glyco‐Dyn[n]Arenes That can Be Templated to Produce Anti‐Adhesive Glycoconjugates Targeting Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 48, August 26, 2025.
DCC enables the formation of glycocluster libraries through reversible disulfide exchange. Nanomolar ligands for multiple lectins (ConA, LecA, and LecB) were identified in a simple experimental set up, purified, and displayed nanomolar affinity with anti‐infectious properties.

A Novel Integrated Way for Deciphering the Glycan Code for the FimH Lectin

Molecules, 2018
The fimbrial lectin FimH from uro- and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli binds with nanomolar affinity to oligomannose glycans exposing Manα1,3Man dimannosides at their non-reducing end, but only with micromolar affinities to Manα1,2Man ...
