Host–Pathogen Dual Targeting With Repurposed Drugs Identifies a Synergistic Therapy for Intracellular Staphylococcus aureus

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
A large intracellular drug‐repurposing screen identifies a potent synergy between 5‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxycytidine and rifapentine, acting through dual host–pathogen targeting to reduce Staphylococcus aureus burdens across strains, cell types, and infection models (created with BioRender).

Strategies of adaptation of Staphylococcus epidermidis to hospital and community: amplification and diversification of SCCmec [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2012
Staphylococcus epidermidis is a harmless commensal, but it can become a human pathogen, mainly in the hospital environment. In order to clarify strategies used by these bacteria to adapt to the hospital environment, we compared the population structure and staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) content of S.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Analyses of Antimicrobial Resistance Patterns of Staphylococcus aureus Isolates From Outpatient Blood Samples in Mukuru Slum, Nairobi, Kenya

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Bloodstream infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and its methicillin‐resistant S. aureus (MRSA) represent a major clinical challenge, contributing to prolonged illness, increased healthcare costs, and high mortality worldwide. In low‐resource settings, these infections are further aggravated by overcrowding, poor sanitation,

Genetic and phenotypic diversity of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus among Japanese inpatients in the early 1980s

Scientific Reports, 2021
To trace the linkage between Japanese healthcare-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (HA-MRSA) strains in the early 1980s and the 2000s onward, we performed molecular characterizations using mainly whole-genome sequencing.
