  1. 6. Febrile Urinary Tract Infection: P fimbriae, Innate Host Response and Bacteremia

    Författare :Gisela Otto; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prsGJ96; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; papGIA2; antibiotic therapy; urine; chemokine; interleukin-6; host response; P fimbriae; bacteremia; febrile urinary tract infection; Escherichia coli;

    Sammanfattning : Urinary tract infections (UTI) are among the most common human infections, and febrile UTI with bacteremia the most severe form. The relation between bacteria and host decides disease severity. The dominating uropathogen is Escherichia coli (E. coli). LÄS MER

  3. 7. Novel tools for the study and diagnosis of bacterial infections : exploring the intersection of microbiology and microfabrication

    Författare :Charalampos Antypas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The alarming increase in antibiotic resistance calls for new approaches to study and diagnose bacterial infections. In my thesis, I worked at the intersection of microbiology, microfabrication, and optical probes to develop novel diagnostic and screening assays for microbiology and elucidate bacterial pathogenesis in urinary tract infections (UTI).

  4. 8. Molecular determinants of disease severity in urinary tract infection

    Författare :Ines Ambite; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Asymptomatic bacteriuria; urinary tract infection; acute pyelonephritis; cystitis; Escherichia coli 83972; host response; NlpD; RNA Polymerase II; transcription regulation; inflammasome; Il-1β; ASC; NLRP-3; hyper-inflammatory disorder; MMP-7; IL-1RA; genetic susceptibility; IRF-7; siRNA therapy; P fimbriae; type 1 fimbriae;

    Sammanfattning : In the urinary tract, Escherichia coli infection may result in life-threatening disease, or asymptomatic bacterial carriage, comparable to bacterial commensalism in the gut. Pathogenic strains trigger a disease provoking host response which differs depending on the infected organ. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Combinatorial Synthesis of Pilicides

    Författare :Anette Svensson; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; gel-phase 19F NMR spectroscopy; fluorinated linkers; E. coli bacteria; pilicides; combinatorial chemistry; solid-phase synthesis; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes a combinatorial approach to design and synthesis of three libraries of compounds, referred to as pilicides, designed to target periplasmic chaperones present in uropathogenic Escherichia coli bacteria that are the main cause of urinary tract infections. Periplasmic chaperones are required for assembly of adhesive organelles, i. LÄS MER
