Virulence factors in biofilm formation and therapeutic strategies for Staphylococcus aureus: A review
2024-11-28
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) is a significant human pathogen known for its ability to form biofilms, which increase its resistance to antibiotics and immune defenses. This review delves into the mechanisms of biofilm formation in S. aureus , emphasizing the critical roles of various virulence factors. During the initial attachment phase, surface proteins such as protein A, fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBP...
