<i>Pseudomonas</i> superinfection drives Pf phage transmission within airway infections in patients with cystic fibrosis
2025-01-15
Abstract excerpt
Pf bacteriophages, lysogenic viruses that infect Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa), are implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic Pa infections; phage-infected (Pf+) strains are known to predominate in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) who are older and have more severe disease. However, the transmission patterns of Pf underlying the progressive dominance of Pf+ strains are unclear. In particular, it is unknown wheth...
