Influence of type 1 piliation on chemotaxis and intracellular killing of uropathogenic E. coli by human polymorphonuclear leukocyts

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) that cause urinary tract infections bind to target cells via several distinct paris of adhesins and receptors. In this study we determine the role of type 1 pili in interaction of UPEC with human neutrophils. Type 1 piliated and unpiliated strains (obtained by g...
