Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis carrying biofilm formation genes: detection of clinical isolates by multiplex PCR [PDF]
Staphylococcus epidermidis is the most prevalent coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CNS) and is a major cause of hospital bacteremia. Based on 18 reference strains and 149 Staphylococcus clinical strains, used in a novel multiplex PCR method, the aim of ...

Regulatory T Cells and Nanomaterials: Dual Perspectives in Therapeutics and Immunomodulation
Tregs control immune tolerance but can also enable tumor escape. Nanomaterials can now expand or stabilize Tregs to treat autoimmunity and support transplantation or conversely disrupt tumor Tregs to boost antitumor immunity. We also discuss unintended Treg modulation by nanoparticles, safety and manufacturing challenges, and future translational ...

Transfer of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is a serious human pathogen with remarkable adaptive powers. Antibiotic-resistant clones rapidly emerge mainly by acquisition of antibiotic-resistance genes from other S. aureus strains or even from other genera.
