Acinetobacter baumannii virulence from a regulatory perspective: the role of two component signal transduction systems

鲍曼不动杆菌正在成为医院和最近在社区的重要病原体。它对从表面清除非常有抵抗力，一旦进入宿主，几乎不可能用目前可用的抗生素治疗。它引起从伤口感染、肺炎到菌血症等多种疾病；人们对这一过程知之甚少。这项研究将增加我们对疾病过程的了解，为未来提供可能的治疗选择。

Acinetobacter baumannii is becoming a significant pathogen in the hospital and more recently in the community. It is very resistant to removal from surfaces and upon entering the host is almost impossible to treat with currently available antibiotics. It causes a wide range of disease states from wound infections and pneumonia to bacteraemia; little is known of this process. This research will increase our understanding of the disease process, providing possible treatment options in the future.
