Abstract
The chronic infections of cystic fibrosis (CF) airways with Pseudomonas aeruginosa are a paradigm of how environmental bacteria can conquer, adapt, and persist in an atypical habitat and successfully evade defense mechanisms and chemotherapy in a susceptible host. The within-host evolution of intraclonal diversity has been examined by whole-genome sequencing, phenotyping, and competitive fitness experiments of serial P. aeruginosa isolates collected from CF airways since onset of colonization for a period of up to 40 years. The spectrum of de novo mutations and the adaptation of phenotype and fitness of the bacterial progeny were more influenced by the living conditions in the CF lung than by the clone type of their ancestor and its genetic repertoire.
期刊介绍：
Current Opinion in Immunology aims to stimulate scientifically grounded, interdisciplinary, multi-scale debate and exchange of ideas. It contains polished, concise and timely reviews and opinions, with particular emphasis on those articles published in the past two years. In addition to describing recent trends, the authors are encouraged to give their subjective opinion of the topics discussed.
In Current Opinion in Immunology we help the reader by providing in a systematic manner: 1. The views of experts on current advances in their field in a clear and readable form. 2. Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications.
Current Opinion in Immunology will serve as an invaluable source of information for researchers, lecturers, teachers, professionals, policy makers and students.
Current Opinion in Immunology builds on Elsevier''s reputation for excellence in scientific publishing and long-standing commitment to communicating reproducible biomedical research targeted at improving human health. It is a companion to the new Gold Open Access journal Current Research in Immunology and is part of the Current Opinion and Research(CO+RE) suite of journals. All CO+RE journals leverage the Current Opinion legacy-of editorial excellence, high-impact, and global reach-to ensure they are a widely read resource that is integral to scientists'' workflow.
