Multidrug-Resistant Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Typing by ERIC-PCR: A Genetic and Antibiogram Profiling in a Tertiary Care Hospital

Journal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases
Introduction: Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a leading cause of community-acquired and healthcare-associated infections, and antimicrobial resistance in UPEC poses significant challenges to managing these infections.

High thermal plasticity, low heritability and constant directional selection on breeding phenology in a viviparous ectotherm

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our findings reveal that breeding phenology of the common lizard is shaped by strong thermal plasticity, body size effects, constant selection for earlier parturition, but low heritability. This suggests that phenological responses to climate change in this species, and likely in other squamates, will predominantly arise through plastic rather than ...

Phylogenetic Group B2 Expressed Significant Biofilm Formation among Drug Resistant Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Libyan Journal of Medicine, 2021
Biofilm is an important virulent marker attributed to the development of urinary tract infections (UTIs) by uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC). Drug-resistant and biofilm-producing UPEC are highly problematic causing catheter-associated or recurrent UTIs with ...

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

A Systematic Review on the Presentation and Management of Segmental Testicular Infarction

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Segmental testicular infarction (STI) is a rare and likely underdiagnosed cause of acute scrotal pain. Its clinical and imaging presentation often mimics testicular torsion or malignancy, frequently leading to unnecessary surgical intervention.

Water, water, every where—the advent of hydrated pili structure

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Protein structure is defined by its surrounding water. Naturally, this is also true for the gigantic protein filaments that pathogenic bacteria use to attach to and colonize their host cells. Structures of these filaments for which water can be identified with high confidence have stayed elusive for the longest time.

Phylogenetic diversity and virulence gene characteristics of Escherichia coli from pork and patients with urinary tract infections in Thailand.

PLoS ONE
Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC), especially uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) are responsible for urinary tract infections (UTIs), while diarrheagenic E. coli (DEC) cause foodborne illnesses. These pathogenic E.

Genetically diverse uropathogenic Escherichia coli adopt a common transcriptional program in patients with UTIs

eLife, 2019
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the major causative agent of uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs). A common virulence genotype of UPEC strains responsible for UTIs is yet to be defined, due to the large variation of virulence factors ...
