Synergy between type 1 fimbriae expression and C3 opsonisation increases internalisation of E. coli by human tubular epithelial cells.

BMC microbiology - 31 Mar 2009

Li Ke, Zhou Wuding, Hong Yuzhi, Sacks Steven H, Sheerin Neil S

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Bacterial infection of the urinary tract is a common clinical problem with E. coli being the most common urinary pathogen. Bacterial uptake into epithelial cells is increasingly recognised as an important feature of infection. Bacterial virulence factors, especially fimbrial adhesins,...
