Bladder-draining lymph nodes support germinal centre B cell responses during urinary tract infection in mice

This study shows that bladder-draining lymph nodes in mice develop germinal centre B cell responses during urinary tract infection, which may help control infection but are not enhanced by a second infection.

Loss of β-ketoacyl acyl carrier protein synthase III activity restores multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli sensitivity to previously ineffective antibiotics

This study shows that disrupting the FabH gene in E. coli reduces its resistance to antibiotics by compromising the cell envelope, making previously ineffective antibiotics effective again.
