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

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 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

Molecular typing of uropathogenic E. coli strains by the ERIC-PCR method [PDF]

Electronic Physician, 2016
Introduction: Escherichia coli (E. coli) is the most common cause of urinary infections in hospitals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ERIC-PCR method for molecular typing of uropathogenic E.

Uropathogenic E. coli induces DNA damage in the bladder. [PDF]

PLoS Pathog, 2021
Abstract Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common outpatient infections, with a lifetime incidence of around 60% in women. We analysed urine samples from 223 patients with community-acquired UTIs and report the presence of a metabolite released during the synthesis of colibactin, a bacterial genotoxin,

Protocol for inducing monomicrobial sepsis in mice with uropathogenic E. coli. [PDF]

STAR Protoc
Bacterial infections are the primary cause of pathogenic sepsis. An uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) model of monomicrobial sepsis represents a useful tool for interrogating the host immune response to this pathogen. Here, we present a protocol for inducing monomicrobial sepsis in mice using UPEC.

Characterization of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Reveals Hybrid Isolates of Uropathogenic and Diarrheagenic (UPEC/DEC) E. coli

Microorganisms, 2022
(1) Background: Pathogenic Escherichia coli are divided into two groups: diarrheagenic (DEC) and extraintestinal pathogenic (ExPEC) E. coli. ExPEC causing urinary tract infections (UTIs) are termed uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) and are the most common cause of UTIs worldwide. (2) Methods: Here, we characterized 112 UPEC in terms of phylogroup, serotype,

Detection of Ciprofloxacin resistance genes in Escherichia coli isolated from dogs with urinary tract infections [PDF]

The Iranian Journal of Veterinary Science and Technology, 2020
This research was performed on uropathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) isolates and established the genes of resistance to ciprofloxacin between the isolates. A total of one hundred and three urine samples were tested for uropathogenic E.

Mechanisms of uropathogenic <i>E. coli</i> mucosal association in the gastrointestinal tract. [PDF]

Sci Adv
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are highly recurrent and frequently caused by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) strains that can be found in patient intestines. Seeding of the urinary tract from this intestinal reservoir likely contributes to UTI recurrence (rUTI) rates.

Characterization of uropathogenic E. coli from various geographical locations in India. [PDF]

J Taibah Univ Med Sci, 2023
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the most common causative agent of urinary tract infection, accounting for more than 80% of cases worldwide. This study presents data on prevalent serotypes, resistance profiles, and colonization-aiding virulence characteristics of UPEC from different geographical regions in India.UPEC were serotyped through ...
