Journal ArticleDOI

Salmonella enterica var Typhimurium and Salmonella enterica var Enteritidis express type 1 fimbriae in the rat in vivo.

TL;DR: The results suggest that type 1 fimbriae alone or in combination with other fimbRIae may play an important role in the early stages of infection with these pathogenic bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amino Acid Residues within Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 Tir Involved in Phosphorylation, α-Actinin Recruitment, and Nck-Independent Pedestal Formation

TL;DR: Using a series of internal deletion mutants, it is found that amino acids 454 to 463 are required for efficient pedestal formation, and Deleting this region resulted in a significant decrease in the recruitment of both filamentous actin and the actin binding protein α-actinin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimization of metabolomics of defined in vitro gut microbial ecosystems

TL;DR: This work reviews the use of bioreactor systems for ex vivo modelling of the human gut microbiota with respect to analysis of the metabolic output of the microbial ecosystem, and discusses the possibility of mechanistic insights using these combined techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Avian- and mammalian-derived antibodies against adherence-associated proteins inhibit host cell colonization by Escherichia coli O157:H7

TL;DR: The aim is to evaluate the potential for polyclonal antibodies targeting enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli virulence determinants to prevent colonization of host cells by E. coli O157:H7.
