Pathogenesis of Hypervirulent Group A Streptococcus [PDF]
Japan Journal of Medicine, 2018 Group A Streptococcus (GAS) causes common pharyngitis and skin infections and occasional severe invasive infections. This review describes the recent progress on the pathogenesis of hypervirulent GAS. CovRS mutations are frequent among invasive GAS isolates and lead to hypervirulence. GAS CovRS mutants can be selected in vivo by neutrophils.

Emergence of new PCR ribotypes from the hypervirulent Clostridium difficile 027 lineage. [PDF]
, 2011 Clostridium difficile is the most common cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea worldwide. Over the past 10 years, the incidence and severity of disease have increased in North America and Europe due to the emergence of a hypervirulent clone designated

Characteristics of Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae: Does Low Expression of rmpA Contribute to the Absence of Hypervirulence? [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Multidrug-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (MDR-hvKP) has been increasingly reported and is now recognized as a significant threat to public health; however, characterization of MDR-hvKP has not been systematically investigated. In the present study, 124 of 428 (28.92%) K.
