Immune modulation by group B streptococcus influences host susceptibility to urinary tract infection by uropathogenic escherichia coli
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is most often caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). UPEC inoculation into the female urinary tract (UT) can occur through physical activities that expose the UT to an inherently polymicrobial periurethral, vaginal, or gastrointestinal flora.
