摘要
Cytotoxic necrotizing factor-1 (CNF1) is commonly found in Escherichia coli isolates from patients with urinary tract infection (UTI). To determine whether CNF1 is an important UTI virulence factor we compared the ability of a clinical E. coli UTI isolate and a CNF1-negative mutant of that isolate to colonize and induce histological changes in the urinary tract in a murine model of ascending UTI. We found no evidence that the mutant strain was attenuated. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
