The paper shows that Exotoxin A is not essential for bacterial survival or corneal disease severity in P. aeruginosa keratitis in mice.

The paper identifies OprF as critical for Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence in corneal infections by linking it to ExoT expression and ROS inhibition.

The paper identifies a Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage, Clew-1, that uses Psl as a receptor to disrupt biofilms and reduce bacterial burden in a mouse model.

This study shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa can traverse a multilayered epithelium using T3SS effectors and translocon proteins without the T3SS needle.
