D-Mannoside FimH Inhibitors as Non-Antibiotic Alternatives for Uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i>
FimH is a type I fimbria of uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> (UPEC), recognized for its ability to adhere and infect epithelial urinary tissue. Due to its role in the virulence of UPEC, several therapeutic strategies have focused on the study of FimH, including vaccines, mannosides,...
