Feb 5, 2014 · The aim of this study was to find whether probiotic E. coli strain Nissle 1917 (EcN) influences the pharmacokinetics of concomitantly taken antiarrhythmic drug amiodarone (AMI). Live bacterial suspension of probiotic EcN (or non-probiotic E. coli strain ATCC 25922) was applied orally to male Wistar rats for seven days, while a control group of

Effect of preventive administration of a nonpathogenic Escherichia coli strain on the colonization of the intestine with microbial pathogens in newborn infants. Biol Neonate. 1997;71 (4):224-232. The nonpathogenic strain E coli Nissle 1917 appears to be a safe probiotic for treating ulcerative colitis Oct 6, 2020 · Background Heme proteins and heme-derived molecules are essential in numerous cellular processes. Research into their in vitro functionality requires the production of large amounts of protein. Unfortunately, high yield expression is hampered by the lack of E. coli strains naturally capable of taking up heme from the medium. We recently reported the use of the probiotic E. coli strain Nissle Sep 23, 2019 · Although Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) has been used therapeutically for over a century, the determinants of its probiotic properties remain elusive. EcN produces two siderophore-microcins (Mcc) responsible for an antagonistic activity against other Enterobacteriaceae. EcN also synthesizes the genotoxin colibactin encoded by the pks island.
