Vegetation formation in <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> endocarditis inversely correlates with <i>RNAIII</i> and <i>sarA</i> expression in invasive clonal complex 5 (CC5) isolates
2022-04-20
Abstract excerpt
Infective endocarditis (IE) is one of the most feared and lethal diseases caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Once established, the infection is fast-progressing and tissue destructive. S. aureus of the clonal complex 5 (CC5) commonly cause IE yet are severely understudied. IE results from bacterial colonization and formation of tissue biofilms (known as vegetations) on injured or inflamed cardiac endothelium. S....
