The Staphylococci Phages Family: An Overview

Viruses, 2012
Due to their crucial role in pathogenesis and virulence, phages of Staphylococcus aureus have been extensively studied. Most of them encode and disseminate potent staphylococcal virulence factors.

Genomic characterization of two Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteriophages with anti-biofilm potential

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Staphylococcus epidermidis is a commensal bacterium but can colonize the hospital environment due to its ability to form biofilms favouring adhesion to host tissues, medical devices and increasing resistance to antibiotics.

Staphylococcus aureus Augments Epithelial Skin Barrier Damage Through T Cell Activation in Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma

Allergy, EarlyView.
Staphylococcus aureus, commonly colonising CTCL patients, augments skin barrier dysfunction. Staphylococcal enterotoxins induce T‐cell release of barrier‐repressing cytokines (IL‐4, IL‐13, IL‐22, OSM). Cytokine signalling drives JAK‐dependent downregulation of filaggrin and loricrin in keratinocytes. Antibiotic‐mediated eradication of S. aureus induces

Classification and Replication Mechanism of Staphylococcus Phage

Biosciences Biotechnology Research Asia, 2015
The use of antibiotics is causing high resistance in bacterial cell. One of the major pathogen that cause of dangerous infection is staphylococcus aureus, these bacteria can urgently resistance to new generation of antibiotic such methicillin.

In vitro activity of phages against periprosthetic joint infection-associated staphylococcal biofilms

Scientific Reports
Lytic phages are potential therapeutic options, based on their ability to lyse bacteria in vitro. Although many infection-types for which phage therapy is being considered involve biofilms, in vitro anti-biofilm activity of phage is poorly defined, in ...

Diet–Microbiome–Immune Interactions at the Gut Mucosa in Food Allergy: Mechanisms, Gaps, and Therapeutic Implications

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mucosal surfaces are sites of highly dynamic interactions among epithelial and immune cells, environmental exposures, particularly dietary inputs, and the diverse microbial communities and their metabolites. These elements continually influence each other to maintain homeostasis and ensure appropriate immune discrimination between pathogens ...

PHAGE FORMATION IN STAPHYLOCOCCUS MUSCAE CULTURES [PDF]

Journal of General Physiology, 1948
1. A substance is present in autolyzed pepsin solutions which stimulates the release of phage by some strains of S. muscae when added to Fildes' synthetic medium. 2. The substance is assayed by determining the quantity necessary to increase the phage yield to one-half the maximum value, using the one-step growth curve technique.

Periodontitis and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review aims to provide a conceptual framework for understanding the mechanistic interplay between periodontitis and IBD, with a particular emphasis on the microbial and immunological crosstalk linking the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract.

CRISPR-Cas9 enables efficient genome engineering of the strictly lytic, broad-host-range staphylococcal bacteriophage K

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Staphylococcus aureus is a major opportunistic pathogen, increasingly difficult to treat due to rising resistance to methicillin, vancomycin, and other antimicrobials. Bacteriophages offer a promising alternative, particularly when conventional therapies
