| الوصف: | Extra-intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) is a virulent pathogen found in humans that causes the majority of urinary tract infections, and other infections such as meningitis and sepsis. ExPEC can enter the urinary tract through two modes: ascending from the bladder or descending from the kidneys. Human anatomical structures generally prevent the transmission of pathogens between the extra-intestinal area, kidneys, bladder, and urinary tract. However, adhesins, a virulence protein of ExPEC, promote the initial bacterial attachment and invasion of host cells. In addition to adhesion proteins, ExPEC contains iron acquisition systems and toxins to evade the host immune system, acquire essential nutrients, and gain antibiotic resistance. The presence of antibiotic-resistant genes makes treating ExPEC in urinary tract infections (UTIs) more complicated. Therefore, screening for the presence of ExPEC among other uropathogens in UTI patients is essential, as it can potentially aid in the effective treatment and mitigation of ExPEC pathogens. Several diagnostic techniques are available for detecting ExPEC, including urine culture, polymerase chain reaction, serological testing, loop-mediated isothermal amplification, and biochemical tests. This review addresses strain-specific diagnostic techniques for screening ExPEC in UTI patients. |
