Overview
Transcriptomic Adjustments of Staphylococcus aureus COL (MRSA) Forming Biofilms Under Acidic and Alkaline Conditions.
The study identifies genes involved in methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus COL under acidic and alkaline conditions, including femA, sepA, pls, and mdeA.
Epinecidin-1 Protects against Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Infection and Sepsis in Pyemia Pigs.
The study demonstrates that the antimicrobial peptide epinecidin-1 (Epi-1) effectively protects against Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection in a pyemia pig model. Epi-1 reduces MRSA counts in various organs and mitigates sepsis-associated biomarkers. The study also identifies MRSA genes mecA, femA, etA, and etB as targets for Epi-1 action.
Ability of biofilm production and molecular analysis of spa and ica genes among clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
The study identified mecA and femA genes as responsible for methicillin resistance in MRSA strains. Additionally, the icaA gene was found to be associated with strong biofilm production in MRSA strains.
Rapid Detection of mecA and femA Genes by Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification in a Microfluidic System for Discrimination of Different Staphylococcal Species and Prediction of Methicillin Resistance.
The study developed a LAMP-based microfluidic system for rapid detection of mecA and femA genes, enabling discrimination of Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis, S. haemolyticus, and S. hominis, and prediction of methicillin resistance.
Guardians of resistance and virulence: detection of mec, femA, Van, pvl, hlg and spa genes in methicillin and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from clinical and food samples in Southwestern Nigeria.
The study identified mecA, mecC, femA, vanA, vanB, pvl, hlg, and spa genes in methicillin and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolates from clinical and food samples in Southwestern Nigeria.
Contamination and antimicrobial resistance testing of Staphylococcus aureus isolates from pork in the traditional market at Central Vietnam.
The study found that 100% of retail pork samples from traditional markets in Hue City, Vietnam, were contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus. High resistance rates were observed against penicillin, amoxicillin, and tetracycline, with the tetM, blaZ, and femA genes being the most prevalent AMR genes.
Nanocurcumin: An Innovative Strategy to Combat Virulence and Methicillin Resistance in Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Burn Wounds.
Nanocurcumin inhibits the expression of key virulence and resistance genes in S. aureus, including mecA, femA, icaA, hla, and pvl, but shows no significant effect on fnbA and ftsZ.
