🆕 New publication!

An international team, including CERM/CIRMMP researcher, has recently published with Nature Magazine a pioneering study on human monoclonal antibodies capable of neutralizing the hypervirulent, pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ST147
Monoclonal antibodies protect against pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae - Nature
Capsule-specific human monoclonal antibodies are protective against bloodstream infection by Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence type 147 in a mouse model of septicaemia, and could provide a useful strategy against pathogens with antimicrobial resistance.
