Prevalence of Vancomycin Resistance in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus
Background & Aims: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens in nosocomial infections. Vancomycin is the most important therapeutic drug of choice for treatment of infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. Therefore, vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) or vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (VISA) strains are warning...
متن کاملBias in Methicillin Resistance of Staphylococcus aureus
Recently, several published papers aiming to isolate and characterize methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have had major bias. For example, an article titled " Microbial Susceptibility and Plasmid Profiles of Methi-cillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-Susceptible S. aureus " by Shahkarami et al. (1). Even though, the authors have spent respectable effort to repo...
متن کاملMupirocin Resistance in Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus
Mupirocin is the topical antimicrobial agent which is used for the treatment of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). However the prevalence of mupirocin resistance in MRSA has increased with the extensive and widespread use of this agent in hospital settings. The present study was attempted to evaluate the low level and high level resistance to mupirocin in MRSA isolates by diffe...
متن کاملMechanisms of Methicillin Resistance in Staphylococcus aureus.
Staphylococcus aureus is a major human and veterinary pathogen worldwide. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) poses a significant and enduring problem to the treatment of infection by such strains. Resistance is usually conferred by the acquisition of a nonnative gene encoding a penicillin-binding protein (PBP2a), with significantly lower affinity for β-lactams. This resistance allows cell-w...
متن کاملCurcumin reverse methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus.
Curcumin, a natural polyphenolic flavonoid extracted from the rhizome of Curcuma longa L., was shown to possess superior potency to resensitize methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) to antibiotics. Previous studies have shown the synergistic activity of curcumin with β-lactam and quinolone antibiotics. Further, to understand the anti-MRSA mechanism of curcumin, we investigated the ...
