The aggregate-forming pili (AFP) mediates the aggregative adherence of a hybrid-pathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC/EAEC) isolated from a urinary tract infection

Virulence, 2021
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) comprises an important diarrheagenic pathotype, while uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) is the most important agent of urinary tract infection (UTI). Recently, EAEC virulence factors have been detected in E.

Bacteriophage-mediated reduction of uropathogenic E. coli from the urogenital epithelium [PDF]

Infection and Immunity
Urinary tract infections (UTIs), primarily caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), affect millions annually. UPEC gains access to the urinary tract through mucosal reservoirs, including the vaginal tract.

Cocktail of genetically diverse lytic phages reduces uropathogenic Escherichia coli colonization in mouse urinary tract [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are one of the most common bacterial infections in humans. The rise of multidrug-resistant UPEC strains increases the urgent need for alternative treatment. Two diverse lytic

Molecular detection of genes encoding for adhesion factors in biofilm formation among uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates

Medical Journal of Babylon, 2023
Background: The ability of Escherichia coli to build biofilms leads to the development of numerous diseases and makes their removal challenging. In addition to being the most common cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs), E.

Phagocytosis and oxidative activity of neutrophils after interaction with uropathogenic Escherichia coli biofilms

Медицинская иммунология, 2023
Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) are associated primarily with the ability of Escherichia coli to form biofilms. The interaction of neutrophils, factors of innate immunity, with microorganisms in biofilms is difficult compared to planktonic ...
