Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Nematode Infections Are Risk Factors for Staphylococcal Infection in Children

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2002
Nematode infection may be a risk factor for pyogenic liver abscess in children and we hypothesized that the immunomodulation induced by those parasites would be a risk factor for any staphylococcal infection in children. The present study was designed to

Systematic review and meta-analysis on the etiology of bacterial pneumonia in children in sub-Saharan Africa

Journal of Public Health in Africa, 2022
Introduction. Before the introduction of vaccination to protect children from pneumonia, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae type B (HiB) were the most frequent aetiological agents causing bacterial pneumonia in children under five years ...

Zinc-doped Prussian blue enhances photothermal clearance of Staphylococcus aureus and promotes tissue repair in infected wounds

Nature Communications, 2019
The application of photothermal therapy to treat bacterial infections remains a challenge, as the high temperatures required for bacterial elimination can damage healthy tissues.

Evaluation of spa-typing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus using high-resolution melting analysis [PDF]

, 2015
OBJECTIVE: spa-typing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been widely used in clinical diagnostics and epidemiological studies. We aimed to evaluate high-resolution melting (HRM) as a rapid and cost effective method, to replace DNA ...

Conjugated Porphyrin Polymer With Superior Charge Transfer for Photodynamic‐Immunomodulatory Prevention of CIED Infection in Diabetes

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Under NIR irradiation, PTCPP generates ROS to eliminate MRSA biofilms and promote M1 macrophage polarization for phagocytosis. After bacterial clearance, the material is phagocytosed by macrophages, shifting their polarization to M2 phenotype via metabolic reprogramming, which synergistically enhances anti‐infection therapy and wound healing.

Gene replacement in Staphylococcus carnosus and Staphylococcus xylosus [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1997
A system for high-efficiency gene replacement in Staphylococcus carnosus and Staphylococcus xylosus has been developed, that is based on temperature-sensitive Escherichia coli-Staphylococcus shuttle vectors for fragment delivery and erythromycin resistance cassettes to facilitate selection of genomic copies of disrupted genes.

Antimicrobials from human skin commensal bacteria protect against Staphylococcus aureus and are deficient in atopic dermatitis

Science Translational Medicine, 2017
Commensal skin bacteria produce previously unknown antimicrobial peptides that can inhibit Staphylococcus aureus colonization of atopic dermatitis subjects.

Evolutionary trade-offs underlie the multi-faceted virulence of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

, 2015
Date of Acceptance: 20/07/2015Bacterial virulence is a multifaceted trait where the interactions between pathogen and host factors affect the severity and outcome of the infection. Toxin secretion is central to the biology of many bacterial pathogens and
