This paper shows that SdiA in Klebsiella pneumoniae represses phagocytosis and intracellular survival, with mutant strains being more susceptible to phagocytosis but showing increased intracellular fitness and host cell death.

This study investigates the role of SdiA in K. pneumoniae virulence, showing it affects biofilm formation, phage susceptibility, and serum resistance, with C6-HSL modulating these effects.

This study tracks antibody responses and viral shedding in SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals, finding variant-specific neutralising antibodies and suggesting subgenomic RNA-E as a better infectivity marker.
