Project description:Escherichia coli is the predominant agent causing both different disease categories of complicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) and asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) cases. This study employed microarray analysis to identify the differences and similarities in the expression of genes among the Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) and two ASB E.coli isolates that represent different end continuums of its disease severities.
Project description:Proteins highly expressed by urophathogenic escherichia coli (UPEC) were analyzed by mass spectrometry of the bladder extract from mouse model of urinary tract infections.
Project description:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the presence of pathogenic Escherichia coli in colon is associated with psychiatric disorders.
Project description:Despite the characterization of many aetiologic genetic changes. The specific causative factors in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer remain unclear. This study was performed to detect the possible role of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in developing colorectal carcinoma.
