Conspicuous Ingestion of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Organisms by Murine Fibroblasts <i>In Vitro</i>
1 May 1992
Abstract excerpt
A conspicuous adhesion of Staphylococcus aureus organisms to murine cutaneous fibroblasts and NIH/3T3 cells cultured in vitro and subsequent ingestion of S. aureus organisms by these fibroblasts are described. In the present experimental system, only fibroblasts-adhering S. aureus organisms were efficiently ingested by fibroblasts unlike S. epidermidis and S. saprophyticus. These findings might suggest a...
