Enhanced Adhesion and Cell Damage by Escherichia coli Harboring hly, papC and cnf-1genes to the Uroepithelium in Diabetic Mouse Bladder Model

The in-vivo mouse bladder model was sought to determine the effect of virulent uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) strain harboring hly, papC and cnf-1 genes on uroepithelium of diabetic mouse bladder infected transurethrally. The female BALB/c mice aged between 6-8 weeks were used in the study. The diabet...
