Caenorhabditis elegans as a model host for Staphylococcus aureus pathogenesis.

Infection and immunity - 1 Apr 2003

Sifri Costi D, Begun Jakob, Ausubel Frederick M, Calderwood Stephen B

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus, an important pathogen of humans and other warm-blooded animals, is also capable of killing the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Here, we show that C. elegans organisms that are fed S. aureus die over the course of several days in a process that is correlated with the accumulation of bacteria within the nematode digestive tract. Several S. aureus virulence determinants known or speculated to...
