Characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus Infections, Chicago Pediatric Hospital

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Invasive and skin community-associated (CA)–methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates from children were matched with invasive CA–methicillin-sensitive S. aureus strains during 2000–2004.

Nutritional Immunity in Wound Infection: Unveiling the Role of Dietary Elements in Host–Pathogen Interaction

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
This article discusses the pathophysiology of wound infection, beginning with the classification of wounds as acute and chronic wounds, and emphasizes how compromised epithelial barriers and chronic inflammation provide a niche for microbial colonization.

Prevalence and Genetic Characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus argenteus Isolates Harboring Panton-Valentine Leukocidin, Enterotoxins, and TSST-1 Genes from Food Handlers in Myanmar

open access: yesToxins, 2017
Asymptomatic carriers of toxigenic Staphylococcus aureus are potential source of diseases, including food poisoning. Toxigenic potential and genetic traits of colonizing S. aureus were investigated for 563 healthy food handlers in Myanmar. Carriage of S.

Infection with Panton-Valentine Leukocidin–Positive Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus t034

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL)–positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), sequence type 398 is believed to be of animal origin. We report 2 cases of infection due to PVL–positive MRSA, spa type t034, in patients in Sweden who had had

Outer Membrane Vesicles as a Versatile Platform for Vaccine Development: Engineering Strategies, Applications and Challenges

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanosized vesicles naturally secreted by Gram‐negative bacteria and represent a promising platform for vaccine development. OMVs possess inherent immunostimulatory properties due to the presence of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), providing self‐adjuvanting capabilities and the ability to ...

High Production of LukMF' in Staphylococcus aureus Field Strains Is Associated with Clinical Bovine Mastitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Staphylococcus aureus, a major cause of bovine mastitis, produces a wide range of immune-evasion molecules. The bi-component leukocidin LukMF' is a potent killer of bovine neutrophils in vitro.

Prevalence of Panton-Valentine leukocidin-positive methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus infections in a Saudi Arabian hospital

open access: yesJournal of Infection and Public Health, 2015
Summary: Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) is a two-component toxin associated with the toxicity and virulence of Staphylococcus aureus. The presence of PVL is well documented in community-acquired methicillin-resistant S.

Antibiotic Resistance, Biofilm Formation, and Molecular Epidemiology of Foodborne Staphylococcus aureus Isolated in Northwest Hubei Province, China

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
This study reveals a high prevalence of foodborne S. aureus in northwest Hubei Province, with MRSA strains displaying significantly elevated antibiotic resistance and biofilm‐forming capacities compared to MSSA strains. The high carriage rates of enterotoxin genes across isolates underscore the potential of these strains to contribute to foodborne ...

A φSa3int (NM3) Prophage Domestication in Staphylococcus aureus Leads to Increased Virulence Through Human Immune Evasion

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2025.
Prophages play a significant role in modulating bacterial virulence and pathogenicity. Our results suggest domestication of φSa3int prophage leads to reduced phagocytosis mediating escape of S. aureus from human innate immunity. As such, targeted identification of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) in addition to species and strain identification may lead ...
