Healthcare- and Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Fatal Pneumonia with Pediatric Deaths in Krasnoyarsk, Siberian Russia: Unique MRSA's Multiple Virulence Factors, Genome, and Stepwise Evolution
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a common multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogen. We herein discussed MRSA and its infections in Krasnoyarsk, Siberian Russia between 2007 and 2011. The incidence of MRSA in 3,662 subjects was 22.0% and 2.9% for healthcare- and community-associated MRSA (HA- and CA-MRSA), respectively. The 15-day mortality rates for MRSA hospital- and community-a...
متن کاملIdentification of Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) gene in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from bovine mastitis milk
Staphylococcus aureus is a major causative pathogen of clinical and subclinical mastitis of dairy domestic ruminants. This agent produces a variety of extracellular toxins and virulence factors including Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) which is the major cause of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). In this study 58 S. aureus isolates obtained from 9 dairy herds in East and West Azerbaijan provinc...
متن کاملAnalysis of mec regulator genes in clinical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates according to the production of coagulase, types of enterotoxin, and toxic shock syndrome toxin-1.
The intrinsic resistance of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is frequently explained by the production of an additional penicillin-binding protein (PBP), which is encoded by the mecA gene. The mec regulator genes, mecR1 and mecI, was identified in mecA-carrying Staphylococcus aureus N315. Between February and March, 1993, 179 clinical MRSA isolates were collected from institut...
متن کاملPrevalence of Antibody to Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 in Burn Patients
BACKGROUND Burn wounds lack normal barriers that protect against pathogenic bacteria, and burn patients are easily colonized and infected by Staphylococcus aureus. Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a rare but fatal disease caused by S. aureus. A lack of detectable antibodies to TSS toxin-1 (TSST-1) in serum indicates susceptibility to TSS. METHODS A total of 207 patients (169 men and 38 women; me...
