Interaction of EAEC with the intestinal epithelium. (A) Photomicrograph of the ileum of a gnotobiotic piglet fed EAEC strain 042. The arrow points to the thick mucus gel adhering to the intestinal mucosa (666). (B) High magnification of the ileal mucosa of a piglet fed EAEC strain 17-2 as in panel A. Note the aggregates of bacteria coating the villous surface. The villi are edematous, and the enterocytes themselves appear swollen. Reprinted from reference665 with permission of the publisher.
