Lipopolysaccharide-responder and nonresponder C3H mouse strains are equally susceptible to an induced Escherichia coli urinary tract infection.
Host defense against bacterial urinary tract infections (UTI) includes both inflammatory and immune responses to infecting bacteria. The cellular events leading up to local inflammation are thought to be under genetic control and initiated by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli. It has been previously reported that mice which lack functional Lps genes ar...
متن کاملResistance patterns of Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection
Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases and Escherichia coli is its common cause. The aim of this study was to assess the resistance patterns of E.coli in urinary tract infections and to determine the susceptibility of E.coli to commonly used antimicrobials and also to evaluate the options for empirical treatment of UTI. Methods: This stud...
متن کاملTime course and host responses to Escherichia coli urinary tract infection in genetically distinct mouse strains.
Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a significant clinical problem for many women; however, host susceptibility factors have not been completely defined. The mouse model of induced UTI provides an experimental environment in which to identify specific host characteristics that are important in initial bacterial colonization of the urinary tract and in resolution of an infection. This ...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance pattern and serotyping of Escherichia coli producing siderophore in people with urinary tract infection
Urinary tract infection is one of the most common bacterial infections of human. The most common agent of urinary tract infection is Escherichia coli . This study aims to determine the prevalence of uropathogenic E. coli urinary infection in human with different antimicrobial resistance, and quantitive and qualitative study of siderophore production and their association with the ability to cau...
متن کاملThe role of mannose sensitive and mannose resistant pili of Escherichia coli in urinary tract infection
In order to study the relationship between hrmolysin / ashesins of Escherichia coli and occurrence of urinary tract infection ( UTI), the capacity of 570 isolated E.coli in agglutination of human or guinea pig erythrocytes and their lysis were tested. These isolates were obtained from the urine of patients with bacteriuria and from the stool of healthy people. Three patterns of hemagglutinat...
