Klebsiella pneumoniae, a chief cause of nosocomial pneumonia, is a versatile and commonly multidrug-resistant human pathogen for which further insight into pathogenesis is needed. We show that the pilus regulatory gene fimK promotes the virulence of K. pneumoniae strain TOP52 in murine pneumonia. Th...
pneumoniae values. In conclusion, the presence of MDR K. pneumoniae in combination with capsular genes may be a possible threat to dairy farm animals and humans in Peshawar, Pakistan. It may give us special attention to follow up on hygienic practices in livestock manag...
pneumoniae isolates (range: 16–32 g/mL). These results suggest the need for prior optimization of ε-PL concerning its viability as an alternative to antibiotics for treating infections caused by P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae of clinical origin. It is noteworthy that, ...
The purpose of this study was to detect Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterium as a causative agent of bacterial vaginosis of pregnant women and its antibacterial pattern in Baghdad city. Institute of Medical Technology / Foundation of Technical EducationM. Jebur...
Results: Klebsiella pneumoniae strain XJ-K1 was an extensively drug-resistant hypervirulent, which showed high-level resistance to antibacterial agents. Three novel plasmids including a 207,409 bp IncHI1B-type rmpA2-bearing pLVPK-like virulence plasmid, a 130,628 bp Col156/IncFIB/IncFII-type ...

Background Endogenous endophthalmitis (EE) is a devastating complication that develops as a metastatic infection in patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae pyogenic liver abscess (KPPLA). The existing data are heterogeneous and the actual disease burden and risk factors for the development of EE among ...
Novel water-soluble, immunostimulating glycoproteins extracted from Klebsiella pneumoniae containing 30 to 45% by weight of proteins, 30 to 40% by weight of neutral saccharides, up to 4% by weight of glucuronic acid, 2 to 5% by weight of osamines and having a molecular weight of about 350,...
Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the ESBL‐producing pathogens that helps to set antimicrobial resistance as a major public health problem worldwide. The current study aimed to isolate, identify, and characterize ESBL‐producing K. pneumoniae and their antimicrobial resistance pattern in reta...
