<i>Staphyloccocus aureus</i> biofilm, in the absence of planktonic bacteria, produces factors that activate counterbalancing inflammatory and immune-suppressive genes in human monocytes
2023-10-06
Abstract excerpt
Staphyloccocus aureus ( S. aureus ) is a major bacterial pathogen in orthopedic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). S. aureus forms biofilms that promote persistent infection by shielding bacteria from immune cells and inducing an antibiotic-resistant metabolic state. We developed an in vitro system to study S. aureus biofilm interactions with primary human monocytes in the absence of planktonic bacteria. In...
