  5. The skin doesn’t just heal, it remembers.

    This Review Article explores how repeated microbial encounters, like with #Staphylococcus aureus, can “train” the skin’s immune system for faster, stronger responses.

  7. Antimicrobial activity of ampicillin
    Ampicillin has a fairly wide spectrum of antimicrobial action: many gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria are sensitive to it. Actively affects: strains of staphylococcus sensitive to penicillin; streptococcus and pneumococcus, although all are less sensitive to ampicillin than to benzylpenicillin.

  9. How to treat salmonellosis and staphylococcical infection?

    Salmonellosis and staphylococcal infection in the intestine. For the treatment of such disorders, the overuse of antibiotics should be avoided, the use of which is necessary only in severe cases.

  11. #Staphylococcus secretes toxins such as PVL to kill immune cells, incl macrophages. This study shows that PVL binds anionic #phospholipids under acidic conditions, targeting lysosomal & mitochondrial #membranes (but not plasma membrane) to promote bacterial escape @PLOSBiology plos.io/3RvcArh

  13. These are the 20 most-studied #bacteria — majority ignored
    Model microbes such as Escherichia coli hog scientists’ attention, leaving most known bacteria with few publications devoted to them.
    Study of over 43,000 bacterial species found #Ecoli dominates with 21% of all publications, followed by human pathogens like #Staphylococcus aureus. Microbes crucial for human health and Earth's ecosystems remain largely unexplored, Univ of Michigan biologist Paul Jensen reported.

  19. #Stability of #influenza A virus in #droplets and #aerosols is heightened by the presence of commensal respiratory #bacteria, J Virol.: journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1

    #Staphylococcus aureus and #Streptococcus pneumoniae were the most stabilizing compared to other commensals at equivalent density, indicating the composition of an individual’s respiratory #microbiota is a previously unconsidered factor influencing expelled virus persistence.

  21. "Here, we show that #Staphylococcus aureus, a bacterial #pathogen associated with itchy skin diseases, directly activates pruriceptor sensory #neurons to drive itch. Epicutaneous S. aureus exposure causes robust itch and scratch-induced damage. By testing multiple isogenic bacterial mutants for virulence factors, we identify the S. aureus serine #protease V8 as a critical mediator in evoking spontaneous #itch and #alloknesis."

    Unique #antimicrobial activity in honey from the Australian honeypot ant (Camponotus inflatus) peerj.com/articles/15645/

    "#Honey produced by the Australian honeypot ant is valued nutritionally and medicinally by #Indigenous peoples. In a new study, #scientists found the honey to have strong activity against #Staphylococcus aureus and against two species of #fungi: #Cryptococcus and #Aspergillus."

  23. Scientists used an innovative genome-wide approach to identify new loci that affect #Staphylococcus aureus’ ability to survive in the bloodstream, which is a critical first step in the development of #bacteraemia #ReviewedPreprint #Microbiology

  24. Human #skin is home to millions of #microbes. One of these microbes, #Staphylococcus aureus, is an opportunistic #pathogen that can invade patches of skin affected by #eczema, also known as atopic #dermatitis.

  25. #Celldivision protein FtsK coordinates bacterial #chromosome segregation and daughter cell separation in #Staphylococcus #aureus
    Helena Veiga, Mariana Pinho et al show #FtsK interacts with the #chaperone #Triggerfactor and establishes its gradient towards the #septum to promote stability and export of the #peptidoglycan #hydrolase Sle1.
