Immune stealth-driven O2 serotype prevalence and potential for therapeutic antibodies against multidrug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

Therapeutics to combat multidrug-resistant bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumoniae are needed. Here the authors show immune evasion drives lipopolysaccharide O2 serotype expansion in multidrug-resistant isolates, and anti-O-antigen human monoclonal antibodies synergize with antibiotics to protect mic...

Sumario:Therapeutics to combat multidrug-resistant bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumoniae are needed. Here the authors show immune evasion drives lipopolysaccharide O2 serotype expansion in multidrug-resistant isolates, and anti-O-antigen human monoclonal antibodies synergize with antibiotics to protect mice from infection.
