Decreased susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus small-colony variants toward human antimicrobial peptides.

The Journal of investigative dermatology - 1 Sept 2014

Gläser Regine, Becker Karsten, von Eiff Christof, Meyer-Hoffert Ulf, Harder Jürgen

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus is a frequent resident of human nose and skin in many individuals, but it is also able to cause a variety of serious infections including those of the skin and soft tissue. There is increasing evidence that particularly persistent, relapsing, and difficult-to-treat infections caused by S. aureus are associated with the formation of the small-colony variant (SCV) phenotype. The aim of this...
