IDENTIFICATION OF ADHERENT-INVASIVE ESCHERICHIA COLI (AIEC) VIRULENCE DETERMINANTS LEADING TO ACTIVATION OF PATHOGENIC TH17 CELLS IN CROHN¿S DISEASE.
… selective and significant enrichment of adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC) pathotype. Notably, in a recent yet unpublished work, we described a new subset of pathogenic Th17 cells (pTh17), selectively enriched in the gut of CD patients that are specifically activated by AIEC strain. …

Influence of intestinal inflammation on bacterial protein expression in monoassociated mice
Background: Increased numbers of intestinal E. coli are observed in inflammatory bowel disease, but the reasons for this proliferation and it exact role in intestinal inflammation are unknown. Aim of this PhD-project was to identify E. coli proteins involved in E. coli’s adaptation to the …

A Larval Zebrafish (Danio Rerio) Model of Adherent-Invasive Escherichia Coli Infections
… (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, is a broad term for chronic intestinal disorders that severely impact patient morbidity and quality of life. The global prevalence of IBD is rising, with over one million patients affected in the US alone. Adherent-invasive <em>E. coli …

The effects of low-shear modeled microgravity on Streptococcus pneumoniae and adherent-invasive Escherichia coli
… pneumoniae global gene expression and on adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) physiology and colonization properties. Habitation in space exposes both humans and microbes to microgravity conditions which are characterized by reductions in fluid shear forces. Areas of low-shear stress …

DUAL TARGETING OF RFAP AND FIMH IMPAIRS AIEC INTRACELLULAR SURVIVAL AND LIMITS OMV-DEPENDENT IL-23/PTH17 AXIS ACTIVATION, OFFERING A NOVEL THERAPEUTIC STRATEGY FOR CROHN¿S DISEASE
… Especially, intestinal enrichment of the adherent-invasive Escherichia coli strain (AIEC), together with a dysregulated activation of the IL-23/pTh17 axis, is a distinctive feature of CD. In this context, current therapies primarily suppress the exaggerated inflammation without directly …
