Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of virulence factors and expression of specific genes between uropathogenic Escherichia coli and avian pathogenic E. coli in a murine urinary tract infection model and a chicken challenge model.
Lixiang Zhao,Song Gao,Haixia Huan,Xiaojing Xu,Xiaoping Zhu,Weixia Yang,Qingqing Gao,Xiufan Liu +7 more
TL;DR: The transcriptional profile of virulence genes among APEC and UPEC in vivo was compared and it was found that in the same model (murine UTI or chicken challenge), various genes of UPEC U17 and APEC E058 showed a similar tendency of expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of Virulence Factors and Antimicrobial Resistance of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli in Jiangsu Province (China)
Lixiang Zhao,Xiang Chen,Xiaoping Zhu,Weixia Yang,Lanmei Dong,Xiaojing Xu,Song Gao,Xiufan Liu +7 more
TL;DR: Cefotaxime-, cefoxitin-, chloramphenicol-, and nitrofurantoin-resistant isolates have a reduced virulence factor genes compared with susceptible strains and empiric treatment of urinary tract infections with all the antibiotics tested is no longer appropriate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Virulence traits and pathogenicity of uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates with common and uncommon O serotypes.
Qingqing Gao,Debao Zhang,Zhengqin Ye,Xiaoping Zhu,Weixia Yang,Lanmei Dong,Song Gao,Xiufan Liu +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the virulence of UPEC isolates for chicks and/or mice depended on both the number of VGs expressed and the O serotypes.
