Secondary infections worsen the outcome of COVID‐19 in patients with hematological malignancies: A report from the ITA‐HEMA‐COV

Hematological Oncology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 846-856, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The impact of secondary infections (SI) on COVID‐19 outcome in patients with hematological malignancies (HM) is scarcely documented. To evaluate incidence, clinical characteristics, and outcome of SI, we analyzed the microbiologically documented SI in a large multicenter cohort of adult HM patients with COVID‐19.

GFP fusions of Sec-routed extracellular proteins in Staphylococcus aureus reveal surface-associated coagulase in biofilms

Microbial Cell, 2023
Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen that utilises many surface-associated and secreted proteins to form biofilms and cause disease. However, our understanding of these processes is limited by challenges of using fluores-cent protein reporters

Genetic characterization of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from Norway rats in Boston, Massachusetts

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 272-281, January 2023., 2023
We identified S. aureus among wild rodents in Boston, MA with antimicrobial resistance genes. Our findings indicate that wild rodents may serve as a under‐studied reservoir of S. aureus and antimicrobial resistance genes with relevance for human exposure and human health.

Oral flora of domestic cats in Hong Kong: Identification of antibiotic‐resistant strains

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 25-36, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background As the clinical outcome of bite‐associated infection is related to the oral commensals, evaluating their composition and antibiotic susceptibility pattern can provide more information for the antibiotic treatment of wound infections and increase the awareness of the multidrug‐resistant bacteria in cat oral flora. Aims This study was

Antibodies to coagulase of Staphylococcus aureus crossreact to Efb and reveal different binding of shared fibrinogen binding repeats

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Staphylococcus aureus pathology is caused by a plethora of virulence factors able to combat multiple host defence mechanisms. Fibrinogen (Fg), a critical component in the host coagulation cascade, plays an important role in the pathogenesis of this ...

Contribution of Coagulase and Its Regulator SaeRS to Lethality of CA-MRSA 923 Bacteremia

Pathogens, 2021
Coagulase is a critical factor for distinguishing Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus. Our previous studies demonstrated that the null mutation of coagulase (coa) or its direct regulator, SaeRS, significantly enhanced the ability ...
