Mucolytic activity and in vitro interaction of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli with human pulmonary cells

2026-04-08

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background Extraintestinal pathogenic <italic>Escherichia coli</italic> (ExPEC) are major causes of urinary tract infections (UTI), bacteremia, and meningitis, but the virulence traits that may enable lung colonization remain poorly defined.
