New aspects of the role of MR/P fimbriae in Proteus mirabilis urinary tract infection.

FEMS immunology and medical microbiology - 1 Aug 2001

Abstract excerpt

Proteus mirabilis, a common cause of urinary tract infection (UTI), produces a number of different fimbriae including mannose-resistant Proteus-like fimbriae (MR/P). The precise role of different P. mirabilis fimbriae in ascending UTI has not yet been elucidated. In this study, a clinical isolate of P. mirabilis and an isogenic mutant unable to express MR/P were tested using different experimental approaches....
