Photo-oxidative stress response and virulence traits are co-regulated in E. faecalis after antimicrobial photodynamic therapy

Knowledge of photo-oxidative stress responses in bacteria that survive antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is scarce. Whereas aPDT is attracting growing clinical interest, subsequent stress responses are crucial to evaluate as they may lead to the up-regulation of pathogenic traits. Here, we a...
