Typical and Atypical Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli Are Both Virulent in the Galleria mellonella Model

Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is an emerging pathotype responsible for acute and persistent diarrhea. It can be classified as typical and atypical strains, respectively, based on the presence or absence of the AggR regulon, suggesting a higher virulence for typical EAEC. This study aims...
