Ordered and ushered; the assembly and translocation of the adhesive Type I and P Pili [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Type I and P pili are chaperone-usher pili of uropathogenic Escherichia coli, which allow bacteria to adhere to host cell receptors. Pilus formation and secretion are orchestrated by two accessory proteins, a chaperone, which catalyses pilus subunit ...

Evaluation of a Rapid, Low‐Cost Broth Turbidity Test for Detecting Ampicillin‐Resistant Lower Urinary Tract Infections in Dogs and Cats

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Effective treatment of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in dogs and cats relies on timely recognition of antimicrobial resistance, but traditional microbiological culture and susceptibility testing require 48–72 h and can be cost‐prohibitive.

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli employs both evasion and resistance to subvert innate immune-mediated zinc toxicity for dissemination

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is responsible for most urinary tract infections and is also a frequent cause of sepsis, thus necessitating an understanding of UPEC-mediated subversion of innate immunity. The role of zinc in the innate

Functional heterogeneity of the UpaH autotransporter protein from uropathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are responsible for the majority of urinary tract infections(UTI). To cause UTI, UPEC must adhere to epithelial cells of the urinary tract and overcome the shear flow forces of urine.

Proteus sp. – an opportunistic bacterial pathogen – classification, swarming growth, clinical significance and virulence factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The genus Proteus belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae family, where it is placed in the tribe Proteeae, together with the genera Morganella and Providencia. Currently, the genus Proteus consists of five species: P. mirabilis, P. vulgaris, P.

Beyond FimH: Diversity and Relevance of Carbohydrate‐Binding Fimbrial Proteins in Escherichia coli

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 17, September 15, 2025.
This review discusses fimbrial lectins found in Escherichia coli (E. coli) other than FimH, which could be targeted to treat E. coli pathogenicity as an alternative to antibiotic treatment. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is responsible for multiple diseases in humans and animals.

Molecular epidemiology of extraintestinal pathogenic (uropathogenic) Escherichia coli

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2005
Molecular epidemiological analyses of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC), which are also called "uropathogenic E. coli" since they are the principle pathogens in urinary tract infection, involve structured observations of E. coli as they occur in the wild.

Immune modulation by group B Streptococcus influences host susceptibility to urinary tract infection by uropathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is most often caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). UPEC inoculation into the female urinary tract (UT) can occur through physical activities that expose the UT to an inherently polymicrobial periurethral, vaginal,

Biofilm Control by Active Topography with Mucin Coating

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 31, August 1, 2025.
This study reports a new antifouling strategy based on a bioinspired design. Mucin coating enhances biofilm control by active topography with beating micron‐sized pillars. Besides the mechanical force of beating pillars, the antibiofilm activities also involve biological factors since mucin coating inhibits swarming motility and c‐di‐GMP synthesis in ...
