Pathoadaptive Mutations in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2016
ABSTRACT Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are opportunistic human pathogens that primarily circulate as part of commensal intestinal microbiota. Though they have the ability to survive and proliferate in various urinary tract compartments, the urinary tract is a transient, occasional habitat for UPEC.

Virulence and Fitness Determinants of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2015
ABSTRACT Urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a major global public health concern. Increasing antibiotic resistance found in clinical UPEC isolates underscores the immediate need for development of novel therapeutics against this pathogen.

Biofilm and hemagglutinin formation: a Hallmark for drug resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2019
Objective Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most frequent disease encounters in pregnant mothers, and the most drug resistant, biofilm and hemagglutinin producer Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the major etiologic agent. Therefore, the

Incorporation of Cryptic Plasmid Energetics Improves Genome‐Scale Metabolic Predictions in Probiotic E. coli Nissle 1917

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study presents the expansion of genome‐scale models of Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 to account for the metabolic cost of its cryptic plasmids. Through systematic comparison with previous reconstructions and validation against fluxomics datasets, the models improved accuracy in predicting growth and overall metabolic fluxes.

Monocyte Chemokines Enhance Atherosclerotic Plaque Necrosis After Bacterial Kidney Infection

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
Cardiovascular event rates rise after acute infections. After a single pyelonephritis episode in Ldlr−/− mice, atherosclerotic plaque necrotic core size increased, mediated by chemokine receptor CCR2‐induced monocyte mobilization from the bone marrow.

A Smartphone and Web‐Based Automated Platform for Segmenting Urinary Tract Infection Using a Deep Learning‐Based Approach

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents a deep learning–powered urinary sediment analysis system designed to operate on both web and mobile platforms. At its core is a UNet++ multi‐class segmentation model trained to identify various sediment types, including background, rod, red blood cells, white blood cells, yeast, miscellaneous, single epithelial cell, small ...

Assembly dynamics of FtsZ and DamX during infection-related filamentation and division in uropathogenic E. coli

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
A subset of uropathogenic Escherichia coli are able to halt division and grow into highly filamentous cells during infection of bladder epithelial cells. Here, authors aim to determine the mechanism, and understand the dynamics of cell division machinery

Tetracycline Resistance Pattern Among Lymphatic Filariasis‐Hyperendemic Communities in Southern Ghana: A Mixed‐Method Approach

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Tetracyclines continue to serve as a cost‐effective and essential treatment for common infections, particularly in resource‐limited regions such as lymphatic filariasis (LF)‐hyperendemic communities. The growing use of tetracycline‐based antibiotics by symptomatic filarial lymphedema patients, likely influenced by the ...
