Staphylococcus aureus Resists Human Defensins by Production of Staphylokinase, a Novel Bacterial Evasion Mechanism

TL;DR: A new property of staphylokinase is reported, its ability to induce secretion of defensins, to complex bind them and to neutralize their bactericidal effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Staphylococcus aureus : Staphylokinase

TL;DR: Observations indicate that staphylokinase favours symbiosis ofStaphylococci with the host that makes it an important colonization factor, supported by sepsis studies using isogenic S. aureus strains demonstrating increased bacterial load in the absence of staphyokinase production.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Combination of a Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitor and Antibiotic Alleviates Staphylococcal Arthritis and Sepsis in Mice

TL;DR: Treatment with the combination of a TNF inhibitor and an antibiotic resulted in a quicker relief of clinical arthritis in mice with septic arthritis, and it was demonstrated that anti-TNF treatment downregulates high-mobility group protein B1 in staphylococcal enterotoxin shock syndrome.
