A shear stress micromodel of urinary tract infection by the Escherichia coli producing Dr adhesin
PublicationIn this study, we established a dynamic micromodel of urinary tract infection to analyze the impact of UT-segment-specific urinary outflow on the persistence of E. coli colonization. We found that the adherence of Dr+ E. coli to bladder T24 transitional cells and type IV collagen is maximal at lowest shear stress and is reduced by any increase in flow velocity. The analyzed adherence was effective in the whole spectrum of physiological...

Urinary Tract Infections Caused by K. pneumoniae in Kidney Transplant Recipients – Epidemiology, Virulence and Antibiotic Resistance
PublicationUrinary tract infections are the most common complication in kidney transplant recipients, possibly resulting in the deterioration of a long-term kidney allograft function and an increased risk of recipient’s death. K. pneumoniae has emerged as one of the most prevalent etiologic agents in the context of recurrent urinary tract infections, especially with multidrug resistant strains. This paper discusses the epidemiology and risk...

The chaperone-usher pathway of bacterial adhesin biogenesis - from molecular mechanism to strategies of anti-bacterial prevention and modern vaccine design
PublicationSystem chaperone-usher (białko opiekuńcze-białko kanałotwórcze) warunkuje biogenezę powierzchniowych struktur adhezyjnych, odpowiedzialnych za wirulencję wielu bakterii gram-ujemnych. Powyższy mechanizm został zbadany na poziomie strukturalnym w przypadku różnych gatunków bakterii patogennych. Celem powyższej pracy było przedstawienie molekularnego mechanizmu biogenezy struktur adhezyjnych na bazie systemu chaperone-usher. Otrzymane...

Type II secretory pathway for surface secretion of DraD invasin from the uropathogenic Escherichia coli Dr+ strain
PublicationWłaściwości wirulentne uropatogennych szczepów Escherichia coli Dr+ IH11128 związane są z obecnością struktur fimbrialnych typu Dr i białka inwazyny DraD, które może na powierzchni komórki bakteryjnej pełnić rolę fimbrialnej podjednostki szczytowej. Ostatnie badania wykazały, że białko DraD jest eksponowane na powierzchni bakterii w dwóch formach: związanej ze strukturą fimbrialną i jako niezależna od fimbrii otoczka białkowa....

A two-plasmid Escherichia coli system for expression of Dr adhesins
PublicationPraca opisuje konstrukcję wydajnego systemu produkcji fimbrii Dr. System składa się z dwóch plazmidów. Plazmid pACYCpBAD-DraC-C-His zawiera pod kontrolą promotora arabinozowego gen draC kodujący białko kanałotwórcze DraC. Plazmid pET-30b-sygDraBE zawiera pod kontrolą promotora T7lac geny draB i draE kodujące odpowiednio białko opiekuńcze DraB oraz adhezynę DraE. Oba plzamidy posiadają różne ori replikacji co pozwala na ich jednoczesne...

Host and pathogen factors in Klebsiella pneumoniae upper urinary tract infections in renal transplant patients
PublicationPurpose . To analyse the role of virulence factors (VFs) and host in Klebsiella pneumoniae upper urinary tract infections (UTIs) in renal transplant (RTx) recipients. Methodology. Clinical and demographic data were registered prospectively. Phylogenetic background of K. pneumoniae isolates was analysed by PCR melting profiles (MP) and the following VFs genes: fimH-1, uge, kpn, ycfM, mrkD, rmpA, magA, hlyA, cnf-1, irp-1, irp-2,...

Optical method supported by machine learning for urinary tract infection detection and urosepsis risk assessment
PublicationThe study presents an optical method supported by machine learning for discriminating urinary tract infections from an infection capable of causing urosepsis. The method comprises spectra of spectroscopy measurement of artificial urine samples with bacteria from solid cultures of clinical E. coli strains. To provide a reliable classification of results assistance of 27 algorithms was tested. We proved that is possible to obtain...
