Identification of functional murine mitochondrial formyl peptides and their effects on myeloid‐derived suppressor cell generation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We first identified functional murine mitochondrial N‐formyl peptides (MT‐FPs) and investigated their effects on the in vitro myeloid‐derived suppressor cell (MDSC) generation from bone marrow cells. We demonstrated that MT‐FPs acted directly on bone marrow cells to promote MDSC generation and modulated the polymorphonuclear (PMN)‐MDSC/monocyte (M ...

A CAPSULATE STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology, 1969
Summary A capsulate staphylococcus designated strain M is described. Apart from the presence of a capsule, this strain has most of the biological properties of typical strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Strain M differs from modal strains of S. aureus in its colonial morphology, resistance to bacteriophage, greater virulence for mice and failure to ...

Rapid PCR Detection of Staphylococcus aureus Clonal Complex 398 by Targeting the Restriction-Modification System Carrying sau1-hsdS1

open access: yes, 2011
A PCR targeting sau1-hsdS1 was developed for rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex 398 (CC398). High sensitivity (100%) and specificity (100%) were shown by evaluating the test on a large strain collection (n = 1,307). We recommend this

Incorporation of Selenium into Sol–Gel‐Derived Bioactive Glass: Influence on Glass Structure, Bioactivity, and its Selective Cytotoxicity

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Selenium was incorporated into a sol–gel‐derived bioactive glass to enable sustained therapeutic ion release. The selenium‐containing glass preserved bioactivity while selectively inducing cytotoxicity in osteosarcoma cells and maintaining osteoblastic viability.

Staphylococcus Aureus Infection

open access: yesDefinitions, 2020
There are many different strains of staph. Some strains are resistant to the antibiotic called methicillin, and often other antibiotics as well. This is called methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and is more difficult to treat.

Staphylococcus aureus lipoproteins - TLR2-mediated activation of innate and adaptive immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Staphylococcus (S.) aureus is a very successful pathogen due to its immune evasion strategies. Besides toxins and adhesins, it expresses membrane lipoproteins (Lpp), which are bound by the pattern recognition receptor Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 in the ...
