Development of a Novel Polyleucine‐Based Immunopotentiator for Subunit Vaccines Against Group A Streptococcus

Small, EarlyView.
Self‐assembling amphiphilic peptide L15K6 is used as a novel immunoadjuvant for the development of a Group A Streptococcus vaccine. Robust antigen‐specific IgG responses are generated and manage to kill isolated strains of Group A Streptococcus.

Constitutional symptoms and response to Penicillin G in erysipelas and cellulitis – a monocentric, retrospective, explorative study

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background: Erysipelas, caused by streptococci, should be treated with penicillin, while uncomplicated cellulitis (phlegmon), often caused by Staphylococcus aureus, requires penicillinase‐resistant beta‐lactam antibiotics, which have a higher risk of adverse effects. Distinguishing between these infections is important.
