Gut-relevant short-chain fatty acids modulate host-pathogen dynamics of uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> at the colonic epithelial interface
2026-01-19
Abstract excerpt
Urinary tract infection (UTI) ranks among the most prevalent bacterial infections worldwide, affecting over 400 million people each year. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), the main aetiological cause of UTI, colonises the intestinal tract, which is thought to serve as a distal reservoir for gut-UTI recurrence. Despite this, the precise role of the gut in UTI recurrence is still not fully defined. Recent rese...
