Virulence Determinants of Colistin-Resistant <i>K. pneumoniae</i> High-Risk Clones

We proposed the hypothesis that high-risk clones of colistin-resistant <i>K. pneumoniae</i> (ColR-Kp) possesses a high number of virulence factors and has enhanced survival capacity against the neutrophil activity. We studied virulence genes of ColR-Kp isolates and neutrophil response in...
