Antibiofilm Effect of Trans-Cinnamaldehyde on Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Journal of Urology, 2010
Urinary tract infections are the most common hospital acquired infections in humans, caused primarily by uropathogenic Escherichia coli. Indwelling urinary catheters for bladder drainage in humans become encrusted with uropathogenic E. coli biofilms that are resistant to common antibiotics, resulting in chronic infections.

Persistent Bacteriuria Caused by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Urologia Internationalis, 2010
The predominant strain of Escherichia coli, the most frequently associated causative agent of urinary tract infections (UTI), in the rectal flora of patients with UTI has been reported to match the strain associated with the etiologic agent of UTI. Since acquisition of UTI may depend on the immediate surrounding flora of the patient, the chromosomal ...

Interaction of uropathogenic Escherichia coli with host uroepithelium

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2005
Investigation into the pathogenesis of Escherichia coli urinary tract infection has provided numerous insights into the mechanisms by which bacteria adhere, grow and persist in association with host tissue. Many molecular details concerning the interaction of these bacteria with their host have been elucidated, and the murine model of cystitis has ...

Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli: Molecular Mechanisms of Adherence

1987
Escherichia coli isolated from endogenous infections of the urinary tract usually originate in the colon (1–3). From the stool, uropathogenic strains colonize the vaginal introitus and periurethral region (4). Colonization of uroepithelium may ensue, leading to bacteriuria.

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Mediated Urinary Tract Infection

Current Drug Targets, 2012
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is among the most common infectious diseases of humans and is the most common nosocomial infection in the developed world. They cause significant morbidity and mortality, with approximately 150 million cases globally per year.

‘Omic’ Approaches to Study Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Virulence

Trends in Microbiology, 2017
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a pathogen of major significance to global human health and is strongly associated with rapidly increasing antibiotic resistance. UPEC is the primary cause of urinary tract infection (UTI), a disease that involves a complicated pathogenic pathway of extracellular and intracellular lifestyles during interaction ...

[Uropathogenic strains of Escherichia coli].

Ceskoslovenska epidemiologie, mikrobiologie, imunologie, 1991
In 753 uropathogenic strains of E. coli isolated from urine of patients with urinary tract infections in two localities the authors assessed O and H antigen, mannosensitive adhesin and haemolytical capacities. In strains with assessed O antigen and some of the strains where it was not assessed the authors searched for P fimbriae and for orientation for

Proteomic analysis of uropathogenicEscherichia coli

Expert Review of Proteomics, 2014
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common of bacterial infections in humans. Although a number of Gram-negative bacteria can cause UTIs, most cases are due to infection by uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC). Genomic studies have shown that UPEC encode a number of specialized activities that allow the bacteria to initiate and maintain ...

Identification of a carbohydrate receptor recognized by uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Infection, 1980
Earlier investigations have shown that pyelonephritic Escherichia coli specifically recognize and bind to carbohydrate structures correlated to the P blood group antigens. These findings are confirmed and extended in this study. Twenty-two of 23 nonselected E.

In Vitro and in Vivo Adherence of Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli Strains

Journal of Urology, 1986
Twenty-eight Escherichia coli strains isolated from the urine of patients with urinary tract infections were assayed for fimbrial type, in vitro capacity to agglutinate guinea pig red blood cells, and in vivo adherence to rat bladder uroepithelium. A direct correlation was found between hemagglutinating capacity and in vivo adherence. Strains with both
