L-Serine reduces the virulence of A. baumannii. (A) L-Serine attenuates the cell damage induced by A. baumannii (AB9, AB311, AB312, AB295, AB305, and AB356). (B) L-Serine reduced the virulence of high- and low-virulent A. baumannii strains. (C) The effect of L-serine on the mortality of G. mellonella using the AB13 strain as an example. “ns” indicates no significant difference. ^{*, #}P < 0.05. ^**,▲▲P < 0.01. ^***P < 0.001. ^*Compared with the control group. ^#Compared with the A. baumannii group. ^▲Compared with the A. baumannii+L-serine group.
