Escherichia coli type-1 fimbriae are critical to overcome initial bottlenecks of infection upon low-dose inoculation in a porcine model of cystitis

Most uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) express type-1 fimbriae (T1F), a key virulence factor for urinary tract infection (UTI) in mice. Evidence that conclusively associates this pilus with uropathogenesis in humans has, however, been difficult to obtain. We used an experimental porcine model of...
