Toll‐like receptor 2 (TLR2) is pivotal for recognition of S. aureus peptidoglycan but not intact bacteria by microglia [PDF]
Glia, 2004 AbstractToll‐like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a pattern recognition receptor that plays an important role in enabling cells of the innate immune system to recognize conserved structural motifs on a wide array of pathogens including gram‐positive bacteria. Although microglia have recently been shown to express TLR2, the functional significance of this receptor

Antimicrobial responses of peripheral and central nervous system glia against Staphylococcus aureus
Scientific Reports, 2021 Staphylococcus aureus infections of the central nervous system are serious and can be fatal. S. aureus is commonly present in the nasal cavity, and after injury to the nasal epithelium it can rapidly invade the brain via the olfactory nerve.

Genetic susceptibility to S. aureus mastitis in sheep: differential expression of mammary epithelial cells in response to live bacteria or supernatant [PDF]
Physiological Genomics, 2012 Staphylococcus aureus is a prevalent pathogen for mastitis in dairy ruminants and is responsible for both clinical and subclinical mastitis. Mammary epithelial cells (MEC) represent not only a physical barrier against bacterial invasion but are also active players of the innate immune response permitting infection clearance. To decipher their functions

International Journal of Nanomedicine, 2013 Highly ionic metal oxide nanostructures are attractive, not only for their physiochemical properties but also for antibacterial activity. Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures are known to have inhibitory activity against many pathogens but very little is known about doping effects on it.

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2023 Abstract Palm sap produced from tapping can be a growing place for lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Palm sap has a lot of carbohydrate content, such as sucrose, fructose, and glucose, which can be a source of nutrition for the growth of microorganisms such as LAB). The result of LAB metabolism that is formed can be in the form of organic acid

Enteric bacteria, methicillin resistant S. aureus and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns from buses surfaces in Mekelle city, Tigray, Ethiopia [PDF]
BMC Research Notes, 2019 To assess the enteric bacteria, methicillin resistant S. aureus and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns from buses surfaces in Mekelle, Tigray, Ethiopia.A total of 300 swab samples were collected from the handle surfaces of the six city buses. The bacterial isolates revealed from the swab samples were E. coli, Enterobacter spp. and S. aureus.
