Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection and persistence mechanisms in cystic fibrosis patients

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an environmentally-ubiquitous organism which causes opportunistic infections in humans, with a predisposition towards chronically infecting the cystic fibrosis lung. Its high phenotypic and genotypic plasticity facilitates long-term survival, and chronic P. aeruginosa respiratory infections are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Understanding the drivers and mechanisms of...
