Why is preterm birth risk doubled with maternal UTI? It depends on the immune response. We found distinct immune signatures in a UTI-associated preterm birth mouse model. In a human cohort from @AShea_Lab, urine cytokine levels could predict preterm birth. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Iron limitation induces motility in uropath. E. coli CFT073 partially thru action of LpdA journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128… @harry_mobley We must learn the full breadth of UPEC pathogenesis to adequately respond to this common bug, esp. w/ the increase of antibiotic-resistant pathogens.

Sad to have not been there in person, but the Shea lab sent our finest! Rachel Fleck presented a poster yesterday on her Pseudomonas UTI project and is giving a podium talk today on her project to detect ASB using a water quality test kit. #AUA24 #CAIRIBUatAUA #AUA2024
