Community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA): molecular background, virulence, and relevance for public health

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2011
Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CoNS) are frequently found in nosocomial environments as the main pathogen in several infections. In 1961, reports of nosocomial S.

Comparative Genomics of Borderline Oxacillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Detected during a Pseudo-outbreak of Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

mBio, 2022
Active surveillance for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a component of our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) infection prevention efforts. Recent atypical trends prompted review of 42 suspected MRSA isolates.

Estimation of MRSA Susceptibility to Oxacillin, Cefoxitine, Vancomycin and Daptomyci

Антибиотики и Химиотерапия, 2020
Prevalence and therapy of infections due to MRSA remain one of the most serious problems in the world. Therefore, correct laboratory identification of the MRSA phenotype based on the use of the marker antibiotic cefoxitine, as a more susceptibile one vs.

Sub-inhibitory concentrations of oxacillin modulate biogenesis and function of extracellular vesicles secreted by oxacillin-sensitive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundExtracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) carry multiple components, such as toxins, antigens, and resistance determinants, whose production is influenced by exposure to β-lactam antibiotics.

Targeting the Dynamic Susceptibility Window: Time‐Sensitive Photodynamic Synergy With Antibiotics Against Streptococcus spp

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Evaluated the antimicrobial efficacy of curcumin‐mediated photodynamic inactivation (PDI) against both sensitive and resistant strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes, as well as its potential to enhance antibiotic effects (amoxicillin, ceftriaxone, erythromycin).

Population Pharmacokinetic Analysis Proves Superiority of Continuous Infusion in PK/PD Target Attainment with Oxacillin in Staphylococcal Infections

Antibiotics, 2022
Considering its very short elimination half-life, the approved oxacillin dosage might not be sufficient to maintain the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) target of time-dependent antibiotics.

Bridging Psychological Stress and Skin Cellular Aging: Flavonoids as a Dual‐Action Therapeutic Strategy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Psychological stress (or simply “stress”) is a major contributor to chronic disease worldwide, affecting 35% of the global population, including younger generations. Furthermore, it plays a significant role in human premature aging; hence, its detrimental effects on people's health compel us to comprehend and control the ways in which ...

Epicutaneous and Drug Provocation Testing in Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions: A 20‐Year Single‐Centre Experience

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
This study provides reassuring evidence in favour of early skin testing in patients with SCARs, argues against the necessity of a 6‐month delay, and underscores the pivotal role of oral provocation tests in the safe reintroduction of essential therapies. ABSTRACT Background Identifying and discontinuing the offending drug(s) in severe cutaneous adverse
