Cationic antimicrobial peptides promote microbial mutagenesis and pathoadaptation in chronic infections.
Acquisition of adaptive mutations is essential for microbial persistence during chronic infections. This is particularly evident during chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infections in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Thus far, mutagenesis has been attributed to the generation of reactive species by...
