A Population-Based Surveillance Study of Shared Genotypes of Escherichia coli Isolates from Retail Meat and Suspected Cases of Urinary Tract Infections [PDF]

open access: yesmSphere, 2018
There is increasing evidence that retail food may serve as a source of Escherichia coli that causes community-acquired urinary tract infections, but the impact of this source in a community is not known. We conducted a prospective, population-based study

Escherichia coli-Mediated Impairment of Ureteric Contractility Is Uropathogenic E. coli Specific [PDF]

open access: bronze, 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

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesEcoSal Plus, 2009
The urinary tract is among the most common sites of bacterial infection, and Escherichia coli is by far the most common species infecting this site. Individuals at high risk for symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI) include neonates, preschool girls, sexually active women, and elderly women and men ...

High Rates of Antimicrobial Resistance and Emergence of High-Risk Clones in Community-Acquired Uropathogenic Escherichia coli. [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiologyopen
A total of 98 E. coli isolates from community‐acquired UTIs were analyzed, revealing high resistance rates to trimethoprim‐sulfamethoxazole and fluoroquinolones. Phylogenetic group B2 was the most prevalent and associated with increased virulence, while ST1193 emerged as the dominant MDR clone.

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC)-Associated Urinary Tract Infections: The Molecular Basis for Challenges to Effective Treatment

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections, especially among women and older adults, leading to a significant global healthcare cost burden.

Urinary Tract Infections Caused by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli: Mechanisms of Infection and Treatment Options

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common bacterial infections that represent a severe public health problem. They are often caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli), Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumonia), Proteus mirabilis (P.

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli infection-induced epithelial trained immunity impacts urinary tract disease outcome

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2023
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli infection induces epigenetic remodelling and trained immune responses in bladder epithelial stem cells that affect susceptibility to recurrent infection. Previous urinary tract infections (UTIs) can predispose one to future

Urinary Tract Infections Caused by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strains—New Strategies for an Old Pathogen

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infections worldwide. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPECs) are the main causative agent of UTIs. UPECs initially colonize the human host adhering to the bladder epithelium.

Crystal Structure of the P Pilus Rod Subunit PapA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
P pili are important adhesive fibres involved in kidney infection by uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains. P pili are assembled by the conserved chaperone-usher pathway, which involves the PapD chaperone and the PapC usher.
