Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase in Neutrophils Is Crucial for Host Defense against Klebsiella pneumoniae

Journal of Innate Immunity, 2022
Humans with dysfunctional Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (Btk) are highly susceptible to bacterial infections. Compelling evidence indicates that Btk is essential for B cell-mediated immunity, whereas its role in myeloid cell-mediated immunity against ...

Nosocomial infection and colonization by Klebsiella trevisanii [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1986
During an 18-month period we identified two cases of septicemia and 24 examples of colonization of humans by Klebsiella trevisanii. Organisms were identified using the API 20EC and API 147 assimilation galleries. Of 147 clinical isolates initially identified as K. oxytoca, 18% were found to be K. trevisanii. Tracheal aspirate was the most common source
