Type 1 fimbriae are important factors limiting the dissemination and colonization of mice by Salmonella Enteritidis and contribute to the induction of intestinal inflammation during Salmonella invasion

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
We have recently shown that S. Gallinarum type 1 fimbriae with endogenous mannose-resistant (MR) variant of the FimH protein increase systemic dissemination of S. Gallinarum and colonization of internal organs in comparison to the S.

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

open access: yes, 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

Do type 1 fimbriae promote inflammation in the human urinary tract?

open access: yesCellular Microbiology, 2007
Type 1 fimbriae have been implicated as virulence factors in animal models of urinary tract infection (UTI), but the function in human disease remains unclear. This study used a human challenge model to examine if type 1 fimbriae trigger inflammation in the urinary tract.

Binding characteristics ofEscherichia colitype 1 fimbriae in the human kidney [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1987
Binding of the Escherichia coli type 1 fimbriae to frozen sections of human kidney was examined by indirect immunofluorescence. The purified fimbriae bound specifically to the luminal and cytoplasmic aspects of proximal tubules and to the connective tissue layer of veins and arteries. Distal tubules, collecting ducts, glomeruli and vascular endothelium
