This study shows that Csu pili in A. baumannii have opposing roles in early and late stages of chronic lung infection, reducing bacterial burden initially but promoting persistence later.

This study identifies LptZ as a critical protein linking surface lipoprotein export to outer membrane vesicle biogenesis in Bacteroides, revealing a novel pathway and expanding the role of the Lpt machinery.

This study identifies MepM-mediated peptidoglycan recycling as essential for bacterial survival when elongasome function is impaired, highlighting its potential as a target for antibacterial therapies.

This study shows that intracellular Acinetobacter baumannii can act as a reservoir for recurrent lung infections by evading immune responses and antibiotics through a 'persist and resist' strategy.

This study identifies strain-specific and common mechanisms of complement resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa using Tn-seq, highlighting key factors like Ssg and Crc.

This paper shows diclofenac sensitizes colistin-resistant A. baumannii to colistin in vitro and in a mouse model, with reduced drug concentrations needed in vivo.
