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.

Molecular epidemiology of uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy, 2007
Escherichia coli is the most common cause of complicated as well as uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs). Most of these uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) strains exhibit certain virulence factors (VFs), including adhesins, iron uptake systems, synthesis of cytotoxins, and specific O:K:H serotypes.

Synergistic mode of action of catechin, vanillic and protocatechuic acids to inhibit the adhesion of uropathogenic Escherichia coli on silicone surfaces

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2020
To study the individual and combined contribution of catechin, protocatechuic and vanillic acids to inhibit the adhesion of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) on the surface of silicone catheters.

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.

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 ...

[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

‘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 ...

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 ...

Genes Determining Adhesin Formation in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

1985
The ability to adhere to the site of infection is considered to be a prerequisite for most bacterial infections. For a number of gram-negative species there is evidence that filamentous surface structures on the bacteria, called pili or fimbriae, are the adhesins that bind to epithelial cells of the host.

Virulence Determinants of Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli versus Commensal Fecal Escherichia Coli

The Egyptian Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2017
Background: Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) is by far the most common cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs) worldwide . The degree of pathogenicity is dependent on the presence of virulence factors; however the clinical aspects of such facto rs are not yet fully understood.
