Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are associated with hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome. These illnesses are typically seen in young children, but are rare before 6 mo of age. The cause of this age restriction is unclear. Because bacterial adherence to intestinal mucosa is

Combined deficiency of coagulation factor V (FV) and factor VIII (FVIII) (F5F8D) is an inherited bleeding disorder characterized by a reduction in plasma concentrations of FV and FVIII. F5F8D is genetically linked to mutations in either LMAN1 or MCFD2. Here, we investigated the molecular basis of

A total of 174 strains of Escherichia coli serotype O157:H7 representing human isolates obtained from outbreaks and sporadic cases of hemorrhagic colitis, hemolytic-uremic syndrome, and nonbloody diarrheal illnesses as well as from asymptomatic carriers across Canada and the United States were

Purified rat intestinal mucin was used as a model mucin to study the binding of Escherichia coli serotype O157:H7, a human pathogen associated with outbreaks of hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome. Of six O157:H7 strains, only one strain (designated CL-49) bound to rat (and other)
