In Vitro generation of Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) in clinical Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and its correlation with PVL variant, clonal complex, infection type

Scientific Reports, 2018
The amount of Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) is diverse among Staphylococcus aureus isolates from different geographical regions, and its significance in some infections is disputed.

The native aortic valve reduces paravalvular leak in TAVR patients

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a frequent TAVR complication. Prospective identification of patients who are likely to develop PVL after TAVR would likely lead to improved outcomes.

Contribution of Panton-Valentine leukocidin in community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus pathogenesis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
Community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) strains typically carry genes encoding Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL). We used wild-type parental and isogenic PVL-deletion (Delta pvl) strains of USA300 (LAC and SF8300) and ...

Recurrent cutaneous abscesses caused by PVL-MRSA [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2011
A 41-year-old female presented with a superficial buttock abscess. In the preceding 6 months she had four other abscesses at different anatomical sites. Screening for diabetes and immunocompromise was negative. Review of microbiology revealed Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus harbouring Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) genes. PVL syndrome is
