Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence and characterization of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli isolated from cattle, food and children during a one-year prospective study in France.
Nathalie Pradel,Valérie Livrelli,Christophe de Champs,Jean-Bernard Palcoux,Alain Reynaud,Flemming Scheutz,Jacques Sirot,B Joly,Christiane Forestier +8 more
TL;DR: It was shown that the majority of the STEC isolates from cattle, beef, and cheese were not likely to be pathogenic for humans and that the ST EC strains isolated from children in this study were probably not responsible for diarrheal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probiotic activities of Lactobacillus casei rhamnosus: in vitro adherence to intestinal cells and antimicrobial properties.
TL;DR: Findings suggest that this probiotic strain could be used to prevent colonization of the gastrointestinal tract by a large variety of pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
The CTX-M-15-producing Escherichia coli diffusing clone belongs to a highly virulent B2 phylogenetic subgroup
Olivier Clermont,Marie Lavollay,Sophie Vimont,Catherine Deschamps,Christiane Forestier,Catherine Branger,Erick Denamur,Guillaume Arlet +7 more
TL;DR: The CTX-M-15-producing E. coli diffusing clone is associated with a high level of antibiotic resistance and with high virulence, showing that, under certain selective pressures, the previously observed trade-off between resistance and virulence may not apply.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Structure and Distribution of the Colibactin Genomic Island among Members of the Family Enterobacteriaceae
Johannes Putze,Claire Hennequin,Jean-Philippe Nougayrède,Wenlan Zhang,Stefan Homburg,Helge Karch,Marie-Agnès Bringer,C. Fayolle,Elisabeth Carniel,Wolfgang Rabsch,Tobias A. Oelschlaeger,Eric Oswald,Christiane Forestier,Jörg Hacker,Jörg Hacker,Ulrich Dobrindt +15 more
TL;DR: The detection of the colibactin genes associated with an ICE-like element in several enterobacteria provides new insights into the spread of this gene cluster and its putative mode of transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Type 2 Quorum Sensing in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Relationship with Biofilm Formation
TL;DR: Analysis of biofilm structures revealed that the luxS mutant was able to form a mature biofilm but with reduced capacities in the development of microcolonies, mostly in the early steps ofBiofilm formation by K. pneumoniae.
