Pseudomonas aeruginosa forms chronic infections in the lungs of cystic fibrosis (CF)
patients, and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with CF …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients undergo remarkable
phenotypic divergence over time, including loss of pigmentation, hemolysis, motility, and …

Rationale: During long-term lung infection in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), Pseudomonas
aeruginosa strains develop mutations leading to clonal expansion. This microevolution is …

BACKGROUND: The identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) isolates in
sputum from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients can be challenging due to the multitude of …

Background. In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), the emergence of hypermutable
Pseudomonas aeruginosa drives the selection of P. aeruginosa variants that are efficiently …

The airways of individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) often become chronically infected with
unique strains of the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Several lines of …

Pulmonary infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa are a recalcitrant problem in
cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. While the clinical implications and long-term evolutionary …

Abstract Background Chronic infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major cause of
morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, and a more complete understanding of …

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes chronic airway infections in
patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), and it is directly associated with the morbidity and mortality …

The airways of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are nearly always infected with many
different microorganisms. This environment offers warm, humid and nutrient-rich conditions …
