This study identifies a structural trade-off in type IV pili that balances mechanical resilience and supramolecular adaptability using cryo-EM, simulations, and experimental validation.

This study shows that pyocyanin disrupts airway epithelial regeneration, alters tissue architecture, and promotes chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.

This study shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa becomes more tolerant to antibiotics when grown in confined spaces, due to mechanical stress-induced changes in efflux and membrane remodeling.

This study shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses motility to enhance phagocytosis by macrophages, while reduced motility in chronic infections helps evade engulfment, and T3SS activity enables acute immune evasion.
