Abstract

The 2e of Escherichia coli is a unique, comprehensive analysis of the biology and molecular mechanisms that enable this ubiquitous organism to thrive. Leading investigators in the field discuss the molecular basis of E. coli pathogenesis followed by chapters on genomics and evolution. Detailed descriptions of distinct strains reveal the molecular pathogenesis of each and the causes of intestinal and extra-intestinal infections in humans. This work concludes with a presentation of virulence factors common to two or more pathotypes. The book is a great resource for references and up-to-date know

Abstract

Les colibacilloses du porc sont des pathologies aiguës caractéristiques de la période néonatale au post-sevrage, provoquant un important taux de mortalité en élevage mais aussi et surtout d’importantes pertes économiques. Le présent travail mettra ici l’emphase sur les affections suivantes: la diarrhée néonatale, la diarrhée de post-sevrage et la maladie de l'œdème, chacune d'elles ayant leurs particularités en terme de moment d’apparition, de symptomatologie, de pathogénie mais aussi de prévention et de gestion. &#13;Ce travail de fin d’études s’articulera en plusieurs parties, en commençant tout d’abord par une description des différentes maladies de façon la plus exhaustive possible, suivie d’une deuxième partie concernant les différents mécanismes de résistance mis en évidence à ce jour chez le porc. Celui-ci s’inscrit dans le contexte actuel d’antibiorésistance, un challenge pour cette nouvelle génération de vétérinaires et vient questionner de l’intérêt d’une possible sélection de porcs résistants en complément à une utilisation raisonnée des antibiotiques et à la vaccination préventive.

Abstract

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and its isolated cytotoxin (Stx), also known as "hamburger E. coli" are continuing sources of significant-and sometime fatal-human and animal infections. In E. coli: Shiga Toxin Methods and Protocols, a multidisciplinary panel of leading experimentalists details the key protocols for the diagnosis and study of STEC and Stx pathogenesis. Described in step-by-step detail, these readily reproducible techniques range from those for the diagnosis and detection of STEC bacteria in patient and animal samples, to those for studying the cellular microbiology of STEC infections, especially host-pathogen interactions and the hemolysin of STEC. There are also protocols for studying the details of Shiga toxin (Stx) biology-from the purification of the toxin to the effects of Stx on various host cell functions-and for exploring STEC-mediated disease in various animal models. Each protocol has been thoroughly tested and optimized to produce robust and successful experimental results, and includes troubleshooting tips, advice on avoiding pitfalls, and alternate methods. Comprehensive and up-to-date, E. coli: Shiga Toxin Methods and Protocols offers bacteriologists and medical microbiologists today's most powerful tools for illuminating the molecular and cellular microbiology of STEC's bacterial pathogenesis, as well as the mechanisms of its toxicity.

Abstract

DescriptionAlthough most strains of E. coli bacteria are harmless and live in the intestines of healthy humans and animals, several strains can produce powerful toxins and cause severe illness in humans. This versatile pathogen is best known for being transmitted to humans through contaminated foods - such as undercooked meat and unpasteurized fruit juice - and has attracts much attention when serious outbreaks occur.Importance of TopicE. coli is capable of causing a wide variety of diseases - from urinary tract infections to meningitis. A considerable amount of m

Abstract

Proceedings of the FEMS Symposium on Genes and Proteins Underlying Microbial Urinary Tract Virulence: Basic Aspects and Applications, held September 16-19, 1999, in Pécs, Hungary. Urinary tract infections are among the most frequent diseases caused by microbial pathogens. In this volume, researchers, clinical microbiologists and clinicians exchange the latest ideas covering four major aspects of this important topic: Genetic information, synthesis and assembly of virulence factors in urinary pathogens; Regulation of genes involved in the phenotypic appearance of virulence; Host-parasite interactions determining the process and outcome of the infection; Possible applications of the above aspects in diagnosis, therapy and prevention.

Abstract

The worldwide emergence of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, specially those resistant to last-resource antibiotics, is now a common problem being defined as one of three priorities for the safeguarding of One Health by the Tripartite Alliance, which includes the World Health Organization (WHO), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the Office International des Epizooties (OIE). Bacteria resistance profiles, together with the expression of specific virulence markers, have a major influence on the outcomes of infectious diseases. These bacterial traits are interconnected, since not only the presence of antibiotics may influence bacterial virulence gene expression and consequently infection pathogenesis, but some virulence factors may also contribute to an increased bacterial resistance ability, as observed in biofilm-producing strains. The surveillance of important resistant and virulent clones and associated mobile genetic elements is essential for decision making in terms of mitigation measures to be applied for the prevention of such infections in both human and veterinary medicine. However, the role of natural environments as important components of the dissemination cycle of these strains has not been consider until recently. This Special Issue aims to publish manuscripts that contribute to the understanding of the impact of bacterial antimicrobial resistance and virulence in the three areas of the One Health triad–i.e., animal, human and environmental health.
