Bacterial interference with host epithelial junctional complexes: Probiotic bacteria vs. A/E lesion-forming Escherichia coli

During colonization, enteropathogenic (EPEC) and enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherichia coli are capable to manipulate host cytoskeleton and colonize gut epithelia by a specific mode of attachment known as the attaching and effacing lesion (A/E lesion). While actin rearrangements during A/E lesion fo...
