Prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in residents who died with pressure ulcers in residential aged care facilities

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: As mobility in the elderly declines, dependence on care increases, and that care involves preventing pressure ulcers (PUs). PUs may become colonized with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, causing cross-infection problems and ...

Universal screening for meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus : interim results from the NHS Scotland pathfinder project [PDF]

, 2009
Following recommendations from a Health Technology Assessment (HTA), a prospective cohort study of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) screening of all admissions (N = 29 690) to six acute hospitals in three regions in Scotland indicated ...

Light‐Switched Mesenchymal Stem Cells for In Situ Exosome Amplification in Craniofacial Bone Defect Reconstruction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Light‐switchable MSCs (MSC‐UCNPs) were constructed by intracellular incorporation of UCNPs. Upon 980 nm irradiation, UCNPs emitted localized ultraviolet light (365 nm), activating the ROS/HEXB/LAMP1 signaling pathway to suppress lysosome–multivesicular body fusion and thereby enhance exosome biogenesis. Embedded within an injectable hydrogel, MSC‐UCNPs

Nasal carriage of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in university students

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2010
In a study of university students, the percentage nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus was 40.8% (102/250). Of the isolates, MIC50 of methicillin was 0.5 μg/mL and MIC90 was 1 μg/mL.

Identification of a Staphylococcus aureus transposon (Tn4291) that carries the methicillin resistance gene(s) [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1988
We isolated a transposon (Tn4291) that carries the resistance gene(s) for methicillin in a secondary insertion site on the penicillinase plasmid pI524. Transposition of Tn4291 into pI524 occurred during the transduction of the tetracycline resistance plasmid pSN1 from a methicillin-resistant donor into a recipient that carried the mec allele in the ...

Extensive horizontal gene transfer during Staphylococcus aureus co-colonization in vivo. [PDF]

, 2014
Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal and major pathogen of humans and animals. Comparative genomics of S. aureus populations suggests that colonization of different host species is associated with carriage of mobile genetic elements (MGE), particularly ...

Pathogen‐Centric Activation of an Azoreductase‐Responsive Antibody‐Antibiotic Conjugate for the Targeted Eradication of MRSA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A pathogen‐centric antibody‐antibiotic conjugate (AZO‐AAC) releases antibiotics via bacterial azoreductase, independent of host‐lysosomal function. This mechanism achieves nanomolar eradication of both planktonic and intracellular methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
