Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Confine Pseudomonas aeruginosa Ocular Biofilms and Restrict Brain InvasionDOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chom.2019.02.007 Abstract: ? P. aeruginosa keratitis infections result in biofilm formation on the cornea ? NETs form at the base of the biofilm, triggered by the type-3 secretion system (T3SS) ? NETs stop bacterial dissemination into the brain but promote antibiotic resistance ? Blocking exopolysaccharide Psl and the T3SS allowed neutrophils to break down the biofil
