Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mec, Evolution and Genetic Lines of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesАнтибиотики и Химиотерапия, 2020
Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is the main pathogen of hospital- and community-associated infections. Methicillin resistance is due to mecA gene located in a mobile complex element, staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec). The

Molecular characterization of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from a Brazilian university hospital

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014
The aim of this study was to perform SCCmec typing in Staphylococcus aureus isolates and to characterize the clonal profile of these isolates. Forty-six mecA gene-positive strains isolated between 2002 and 2006 were submitted to antimicrobial resistance ...

Complete genome sequence of methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus containing a heterogeneic staphylococcal cassette chromosome element [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Staphylococcus aureus is a common human bacterium that sometimes becomes pathogenic, causing serious infections. A key feature of S. aureus is its ability to acquire resistance to antibiotics.

Synergistic antibacterial activity of baicalin in combination with oxacillin sodium against methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 608-621, April 2025.
The bacterial cell membrane and cell wall are the primary targets of baicalin. Baicalin increases the permeability of bacterial membranes, allowing oxacillin sodium to easily penetrate the cells and effectively exert its antimicrobial activity. Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) poses a challenge for clinical treatment and combining ...

Non‐Membrane Active Peptide Resensitizes MRSA to β‐Lactam Antibiotics and Inhibits S. aureus Virulence

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 15, April 17, 2025.
This work identifies a potent, non‐membrane active, and non‐toxic AMP termed GN1, which substantially resensitizes MRSA to multiple β‐lactam antibiotics at low concentrations. GN1 functions by suppressing MRSA‐associated resistance determinants, including penicillin‐binding protein 2a (PBP2a) and β‐lactamase.

High Prevalence and Resistance Patterns of Community-Associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in the Pomoravlje Region, Serbia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
With a view to estimating the prevalence and resistance patterns of CA-MRSA in one region of Serbia, we performed an analysis of MRSA isolates from healthy people and hospitalised patients. The detection of CA-MRSA was carried out by SCCmec typing.

Complicated and deep bacterial skin and soft tissue infections

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, Volume 23, Issue 3, Page 357-375, March 2025.
Summary Complicated erysipelas, cellulitis, and necrotizing soft tissue infections belong to the spectrum of bacterial infections affecting the skin and underlying soft tissues. Their frequency as well as risk of recurrence and complicated disease course pose a significant health burden.
