Antibiotic Susceptibility of Staphylococcus Aureus with VanA and MecA Genes With VanA and MecA Genes

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council
Background: Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) is an emerging antibiotic resistant bacterium responsible for various infections in human. Resistance to methicillin and vancomycin are of prime concern in S. aureus.

Vancomycin resistance has no influence on outcomes of enterococcal bacteriuria [PDF]

, 2013
Background Infections with vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are a growing concern in hospitals. The impact of vancomycin resistance in enterococcal urinary tract infection is not well-defined. Aim To describe the epidemiology of enterococcal

Vancomycin resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections: A review of case updating and clinical features

Journal of Advanced Research, 2020
The infection caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a global threat to public health. Vancomycin remains one of the first-line drugs for the treatment of MRSA infections. However, S.

The distribution of plasmids that carry virulence and resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus is lineage associated. [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus is major human and animal pathogen. Plasmids often carry resistance genes and virulence genes that can disseminate through S. aureus populations by horizontal gene transfer (HGT) mechanisms. Sequences of S.

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 ...

High-level aminoglycoside resistance and reduced susceptibility to vancomycin in nosocomial enterococci

Journal of Global Infectious Diseases, 2010
Objectives: The objectives of the present study were to identify the species of enterococci isolated from nosocomial infections and to determine the antibiotic susceptibility pattern with reference to high-level aminoglycosides and vancomycin.

Lactiplantibacillus Plantarum GUANKE Alleviates Allergic Asthma by Restricting Monocyte‐to‐DC Differentiation Via Microbiota‐Associated IAA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lactiplantibacillus plantarum GUANKE remodels the indigenous gut microbiota and is associated with microbiota‐dependent restoration of circulating IAA. IAA treatment attenuates JAK3‐STAT3 and Jag1‐Notch4‐Hey1 signaling and reduces CX3CR1+Ly6C− monocytic precursor generation and pulmonary CD11b+ DC accumulation, together with reduced Th2 inflammation ...

Glycopeptide Resistance in Gram-Positive Cocci: A Review

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, 2012
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) have emerged as important nosocomial pathogens in the past two decades all over the world and have seriously limited the choices available to clinicians for treating infections caused by these agents.
