People with weakened #immune systems are at constant risk of infection. #Pseudomonas #aeruginosa, a common #environmental #bacterium, can colonize different body parts, such as the #lungs, leading to persistent, chronic infections that can last a lifetime – a common occurrence in people with #cystic #fibrosis.

#Bacteria of the species #Pseudomonas #aeruginosa are #antibiotic-resistant #hospital #germs that can enter #blood, #lungs and other tissues through wounds and cause life-threatening #infections.

Most #Pseudomonas #aeruginosa strains encode functional #amyloids. However, the biological role of these #biofilm components have so far remained unknown. Here, we use a rat 🐀 model to show that they can br implicated in lung 🫁 infections. https://journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/spectrum.03071-22
