A case of Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum nosocomial pneumonia.
To the Editor: Corynebacterium pseudodiphthe-riticum has seldom been isolated from patients with upper respiratory tract infections and pneumonia. Most reported infections are community acquired and occur in patients with underlying disease and immunosuppression (1). We report a case characterized by hospital-acquired pneumonia in a debilitated patient. Review of the literature indicates that C...
متن کاملNovel Nucleoside Diphosphatase Contributes to Staphylococcus aureus Virulence.
We identified SA1684 as a Staphylococcus aureus virulence gene using a silkworm infection model. The SA1684 gene product carried the DUF402 domain, which is found in RNA-binding proteins, and had amino acid sequence similarity with a nucleoside diphosphatase, Streptomyces coelicolor SC4828 protein. The SA1684-deletion mutant exhibited drastically decreased virulence, in which the LD50 against s...

متن کاملImpact of Staphylococcus aureus on pathogenesis in polymicrobial infections.
Polymicrobial infections involving Staphylococcus aureus exhibit enhanced disease severity and morbidity. We reviewed the nature of polymicrobial interactions between S. aureus and other bacterial, fungal, and viral cocolonizers. Microbes that were frequently recovered from the infection site with S. aureus are Haemophilus influenzae, Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus...
متن کاملProteomics in studies of Staphylococcus aureus virulence.
Staphylococcus aureus is a widespread, opportunistic pathogen that causes community and hospital acquired infections. Its high pathogenicity is driven by multifactorial and complex mechanisms determined by the ability of the bacterium to express a wide variety of virulence factors. The proteome secreted into extracellular milieu is a rich reservoir of such factors which include mainly nonenzyma...
