Uropathogenic Escherichia coli escapes autolysosome exocytosis by inhibiting autophagosome–lysosome fusion

ABSTRACT Urinary tract infections (UTIs), predominantly caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), represent a massive global health burden. UPEC infects bladder epithelial cells (BECs) via fusiform vesicles and then escapes into the cytosol, either establishing biofilm-lik...
