Comparison of phylogenetic and virulence factors between Escherichia coli isolated from biliary tract infections and uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Heliyon, 2023
Escherichia coli is a gram-negative intestinal commensal that can also cause various infections, including urinary tract infections, biliary tract infections, neonatal meningitis, and septicemia. Although the characteristics of uropathogenic E.

Detection of fimH virulence gene in uropathogenic Escherichia coli Using PCR [PDF]

مجلة جامعة الانبار للعلوم الصرفة, 2020
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of main health problems caused by many microorganisms, including uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). The virulence factors are important in colonization of UPEC, extra-intestinal survival, and creation of ...

Effects of green tea on Escherichia coli as a uropathogen

Journal of Traditional and Complementary Medicine, 2015
Escherichia coli is the most common cause of urinary tract infections. The development of antibiotic resistance in E. coli is an important problem. Finding alternative antimicrobial agents from plant extracts has received growing interest. Camellia sinensis is a safe, nontoxic, cheap beverage that has been reported to have antimicrobial effects against

Bacteriophages with the Ability to Degrade Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli Biofilms [PDF]

Viruses, 2012
Escherichia coli-associated urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections in humans. UTIs are usually managed with antibiotic therapy, but over the years, antibiotic-resistant strains of uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) have emerged.

The Study of Uropathogenicity Factors for Escherichia Coli Strains.

Current health sciences journal, 2016
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common form of extraintestinal Escherichia Coli infection (E.coli), and E. coli is the most common cause of UTI.The aim of this paper is to study the uropathogenicity factors for some strains of E.coli involved in the etiology of UTI and the affiliationof urinary E.coli strains to the serogroups involved in the

Water, water, every where—the advent of hydrated pili structure

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Protein structure is defined by its surrounding water. Naturally, this is also true for the gigantic protein filaments that pathogenic bacteria use to attach to and colonize their host cells. Structures of these filaments for which water can be identified with high confidence have stayed elusive for the longest time.

Urologic Bacteriome: The Hero or the Villain in Prostate Cancer Onset, Progression, and Treatment?

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 1111-1151, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer in men worldwide and the fifth leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, presenting urgent unmet clinical needs in diagnosis and treatment. The recognition of the microbiome as a key factor in human health has prompted numerous studies, revealing an exciting new approach to ...

Adhesion and entry of uropathogenic Escherichia coli

Cellular Microbiology, 2002
To effectively colonize a host animal and cause disease, many bacterial pathogens have evolved the mechanisms needed to invade and persist within host cells and tissues. Recently it was discovered that uropathogenic Escherichia coli, the primary causative agent of urinary tract infections, can invade and replicate within uroepithelial cells.
