Characterising molecular mechanisms of Crohn's disease-associated Escherichia coli that enable their survival and replication within macrophages

2016-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Mucosa-associated adherent, invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC), found in increased number in Crohn’s disease (CD) ileal and colonic mucosae, can survive and replicate within underlying host immune competent cells (e.g. macrophages and dendritic cells) without triggering host cell death. The intra-macrophage environment plays an essential role in bacterial killing where engulfed bacteria are exposed to a hostile envi...
