What is E. coli TTP?

E. coli Answer BookTTP (thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura) can develop from an E. coli infection. Generally, the strain of E. coli involved is E. coli O157:H7. The six most common strains of non-O157 E. coli that can cause TTP include O26, O45, O103, O111, O121, and O145.

With TTP, A toxin produced by E. coli (shiga toxin) damages blood vessles, causing the formation of tiny thrombi (blood clots) in blood vessels throughout the body, but particularly in the central nervous system (CNS) and kidneys. Because the formation of the thrombi (blood clots) uses an abnormally high number of platelets, the number of platelets in the bloodstream decreases to dangerously low levels.

Complications of E. coli TTP

Complications of E. coli TTP include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Hypertension

  • Seizure
  • Coma
