Post-fluoroquinolone treatment molecular events and nutrient availability modulate <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> antibiotic persistence
2025-06-26
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterial pathogen associated with about one million deaths per year. S. aureus infects diverse host sites including skin and the airway. At nutrient-limited infection sites, S. aureus cells become increasingly metabolically quiescent. While lower metabolic activity may help contain growth of the pathogen, it can enhance S. aureus ’s persistence to antibiotic treatment. Here, we focus...
