Variability in cell division among anatomical sites shapes Escherichia coli antibiotic survival in a urinary tract infection mouse model

Authors Ariane Amoura, Claire Pistien, Camille Chaligne ́ , ..., Bruno Fantin, Agne` s Lefort, Imane El Meouche Correspondence imane.el-meouche@inserm.fr In brief Amoura et al. assess bacterial division in a UTI mouse model at three sites: the urine, bladder, and kidneys over the course of infection. Using clinical UPEC strains, they dissect the interplay between the infection microenvironment and how it can strongly impact bacterial cell division and survival in vivo.Read more
