Escherichia (ešerihija) je rod gramnegativnih, nesporogenih, fakultativno anaerobnih, paličastih bakterij iz družine enterobakterij.^[1] Nekatere vrste naseljujejo prebavila toplokrvnih živali ter gostitelja oskrbujejo z mikrobno proizvedenim vitaminom K. Nekatere vrste ešerihij ali določeni njihovi sevi pa so patogeni.^[2]

Patogeneza

Medtem ko so številne vrste ešerihij neškodljivi komenzali, so določeni sevi nekaterih vrst za človeka patogeni.^[3] Ti sevi so najpogostejši vzrok okužb sečil,^[4] pogosto povzročajo tudi bolezni prebavil, od blažje driske do griži podobnih stanj,^[1] ter številna druga bolezenska stanja.^[5]

Pri ljudeh povzročajo bolezni najpogosteje patogeni sevi vrste E. coli, redkeje pa določene druge vrste.^[6]^[7]
