Role of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Virulence Factors in Development of Urinary Tract Infection and Kidney Damage
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a causative agent in the vast majority of urinary tract infections (UTIs), including cystitis and pyelonephritis, and infectious complications, which may result in acute renal failure in healthy individuals as well as in renal transplant patients. UPEC expresses a multitude of virulence factors to break the inertia of the mucosal barrier. In response to ...
متن کاملInvestigation of Biofilm ability by Microtiter Plate Method in uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from patients with urinary tract infection with urinary stones.
Abstract: Background and Aim: Urinary tract infections are one of the most commonly reported nosocomial infections caused by colonization of E. coli in the mucosal epithelium and in the formation of microbial biofilms, which damage the host tissue. The aim of this study was to determine the amount of biofilm formation of uropathogenic E. coli based on urinary tract stones of people with urin...
متن کاملEscherichia coli mediated urinary tract infections: are there distinct uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) pathotypes?
A variety of virulence genes are associated with Escherichia coli mediated urinary tract infections. Particular sets of virulence factors shared by bacterial strains directing them through a particular pathogenesis process are called a "pathotype." Comparison of co-occurrence of potential urinary tract infection (UTI) virulence genes among different E. coli isolates from fecal and UTI collectio...
متن کاملthe fimh gene in uropathogenic escherichia coli strains isolated from patients with urinary tract infection
conclusions the results of this study indicated that more than 90% of e. coli isolates harbored the fimh gene. the high binding ability of fimh could result in the increased pathogenicity of e. coli; thus, fimh could be used as a possible diagnostic marker and/or vaccine candidate. materials and methods a total of 140 isolated e. coli strains from patients with uti were identified using biochem...
متن کاملTranscriptome of uropathogenic Escherichia coli during urinary tract infection.
A uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain CFT073-specific DNA microarray that includes each open reading frame was used to analyze the transcriptome of CFT073 bacteria isolated directly from the urine of infected CBA/J mice. The in vivo expression profiles were compared to that of E. coli CFT073 grown statically to exponential phase in rich medium, revealing the strategies this pathogen uses in v...
