Bacterial <i>cis</i>-2-unsaturated fatty acids found in the cystic fibrosis airway modulate virulence and persistence of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>

Abstract excerpt

There is an increasing appreciation of the polymicrobial nature of many bacterial infections such as those associated with cystic fibrosis (CF) and of the potentially important role for interspecies interactions in influencing both bacterial virulence and response to therapy. Patients with CF are often co-infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other pathogens including Burkholderia cenocepacia and...
