چکیده

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the main infectious agents encountered in the field of dermatology, and is an aggravating factor in numerous chronic dermatoses. A large number of toxins, virulence factors and resistance mechanisms make S. aureus a potentially life-threatening bacteria, thus confronting the treating dermatologist with therapeutic difficulties.The classification of dermatological diseases caused, or partially caused, by S. aureus according to the prevailing toxin patterns of the strain, should help to develop a more efficient therapy and control of these diseases.

Mild Staphylococcus aureus Skin Infection Improves the Course of Subsequent Endogenous S. aureus Bacteremia in Mice

Staphylococcus aureus carriers with S. aureus bacteremia may have a reduced mortality risk compared to non-carriers. A role for the immune system is suggested. Here, we study in mice the effect of mild S. aureus skin infection prior to endogenous or exogenous S. aureus bacteremia, and evaluate protection in relation to anti-staphylococcal antibody levels. Skin infections once or twice by a clin...

Kinin receptor expression during Staphylococcus aureus infection.

An inappropriate host response to invading bacteria is a critical parameter that often aggravates the outcome of an infection. Staphylococcus aureus is a major human Gram-positive pathogen that causes a wide array of community- and hospital-acquired diseases ranging from superficial skin infections to severe conditions such as staphylococcal toxic shock. Here we find that S aureus induces infla...

Evaluation of a nisin-eluting nanofiber scaffold to treat Staphylococcus aureus-induced skin infections in mice.

Staphylococcus aureus is a virulent pathogen and a major causative agent of superficial and invasive skin and soft tissue infections (SSSTIs). Antibiotic resistance in S. aureus, among other bacterial pathogens, has rapidly increased, and this is placing an enormous burden on the health care sector and has serious implications for infected individuals, especially immunocompromised patients. Alt...
