Newest firstUrinary tract infections are common healthcare associated infections, a large subset of which are caused by indwelling catheters. Long term catheterization causes persistent, asymptomatic, polymicrobial colonization despite catheters changes and antibiotic usage. In these polymicrobial populations, P. mirabilis, E. faecalis, and E. coli were found as the most common co-colonizing species. We investigated how inter…
Open article record in new tab ↗Enterococcus faecalis is a common cause of healthcare acquired bloodstream infections and catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) in both adults and children. Treatment of E. faecalis infection is frequently complicated by multi-drug resistance. Based on protein homology, E. faecalis encodes two putative hyaluronidases, EF3023 (HylA) and EF0818 (HylB). In other Gram-positive pathogens, hyaluronidases…
Proteus mirabilis is a leading uropathogen of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs), which are among the most common healthcare-associated infections worldwide. A key factor that contributes to P. mirabilis pathogenesis and persistence during CAUTI is the formation of catheter biofilms, which provide increased resistance to antibiotic treatment and host defense mechanisms. Another factor that is im…
