[Abstract]  This urinary tract infection model was used to monitor the efficacy of a new virulence factor of the uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain CFT073 in vivo. The new virulence factor which we designated TIR-containing protein C (TcpC) blocks Toll-like receptor signaling and the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling cascade by interacting with key components of both pattern recognition receptor systems (Cirl et al., 2008; Waldhuber et al., 2016). We infected wild type and knock-out mice with wildtype CFT073 and a mutant CFT073 strain lacking tcpC. This protocol describes how the mice were infected, how CFT073 was prepared and how the infection was monitored. The protocol was derived from our previously published work and allowed us to demonstrate that TcpC ... [摘要]  该尿路感染模型被用于监测新生的致病性大肠杆菌菌株CFT073在体内的功效。我们指定含TIR的蛋白C(TcpC)的新的毒力因子通过与模式识别受体系统的关键组分相互作用来阻断Toll样受体信号传导和NLRP3炎性信号级联反应(Cirl等人)。 ,2008; Waldhuber等人,2016)。我们用野生型CFT073和缺乏tcpC的突变体CFT073菌株感染野生型和敲除小鼠。该协议描述了小鼠如何感染,如何制备CFT073以及如何监测感染。该方案源于我们以前发表的工作,并允许我们证明TcpC是一种强大的毒力因子,通过增加CFT073在尿液和肾脏中的细菌负担。此外,TcpC负责肾脓肿的发展,因为感染具有野生型但不是tcpC的缺乏CFT073突变体的小鼠引起这种并发症。

背景 尿路感染(UTIs)是全世界最常见的细菌感染(Dielubanza和Schaeffer,2011),主要是由欧洲病原大肠杆菌(UPEC)引起的(Zhang和Foxman,2003)。复发性感染率高(Dielubanza和Schaeffer,2011),抗生素抗性E的出现也有所增加。大肠杆菌菌株(Eurosurveillance editorial,2015)。因此,为了开发新的治疗剂,对宿主和细菌因子对尿路感染病理生理学的了解具有很高的相关性。
 鼠类UTI模型系统是主要使用的动物模型系统,用于研究UPEC分离株和细菌 ...
