THE EFFECT OF CRANBERRY JUICE AND CRANBERRY DERIVATIVES ON THE HEMAGGLUTINATION ACTIVITY OF P-FIMBRIATED ESCHERICHIA COLI The Effect of Cranberry Juice and Cranberry Derivatives on the Hemagglutination Activity of P-Fimbriated Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli is the most common cause of urinary tract infections, especially those strains with hair-like fimbriae that aid in adhesion to the urinary tract. Binding to the epithelial cells lining the urinary tract is the first step in such an infection. A class of compounds found in cranberries called proanthocyanidins has been shown to inhibit P-fimbriated E. coli from binding to uroepit...
متن کاملA-Type proanthocyanidin trimers from cranberry that inhibit adherence of uropathogenic P-fimbriated Escherichia coli.
Three proanthocyanidin trimers possessing A-type interflavanoid linkages, epicatechin-(4beta-->6)-epicatechin-(4beta-->8, 2beta-->O-->7)-epicatechin (4), epicatechin-(4beta-->8, 2beta-->O-->7)-epicatechin-(4beta-->8)-epicatechin (5), and epicatechin-(4beta-->8)-epicatechin-(4beta-->8, 2beta-->O-->7)-epicatechin (6), were isolated from the ripe fruits of Vaccinium macrocarpon (cranberry) and pre...

Adherence of type 1-fimbriated Escherichia coli to uroepithelial cells: more in diabetic women than in control subjects.
OBJECTIVE Women with diabetes have bacteriuria more often than women without diabetes. Because Escherichia coli adhere better to vaginal cells of nondiabetic patients with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) than to those obtained from healthy control subjects, it was hypothesized that E. coli adhere more to the uroepithelial cells of diabetic women, either because of substances excreted ...
متن کاملInactivation of ompX causes increased interactions of type 1 fimbriated Escherichia coli with abiotic surfaces.
During the initial steps of biofilm formation, bacteria have to adapt to a major change in their environment. The adhesion-induced phenotypic changes in a type 1 fimbriated Escherichia coli strain included reductions in the levels of several outer membrane proteins, one of which was identified as OmpX. Here, the phenotypes of mutant strains that differ at the ompX locus were studied with regard...
