Abstract excerpt

Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) is a causative agent of lethal necrotizing pneumonia and is associated with epidemic strains of community-acquired (CA) methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). PVL-producing strains have rarely been isolated in Japan. However, PVL-positive CA-MRSA has been isolated much more frequently in recent years. To investigate the relevance of pvl genes (lukS/F-PV) and clinical...
