#Staphaureus
Staphylococcus aureus can change its outer layers during infection.

A new paper in 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 reviews how host stresses reshape the cell envelope, with effects on antibiotic tolerance, immune killing and host cell interactions.

📣 Practice-changing data published in both the NEJM and The Lancet!

The #SNAPTrial results are set to redefine international guidelines for treating golden #Staph bloodstream infections.

Ecraid is proud to be a European partner for this landmark study.

A urogenital route can shape how S. aureus handles iron.

A new paper in 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 links urogenital-origin bloodstream isolates with weaker growth when iron is scarce. With @masseylab.bsky.social.

📣 In vitro studies point to synergy between ertapenem and both cefazolin and nafcillin.

In this cohort of >50 patients with #MSSA #endocarditis receiving dual therapy, mortality & valve-replacement rates were lower than expected.

Up next at #Antimicrobials2026
Symposium 1–Staphylococcus aureus.

From SNAP updates to the ongoing challenges of MRSA and invasive disease, this session will tackle one of the most persistent and complex pathogens in clinical practice.

How does S. aureus turn a toxic metabolite into a survival tool? Rutgers-led research shows its enzyme FumC converts fumarate into fuel for growth, biofilm, & virulence—opening doors for new anti-pneumonia drugs. go.njmicrobe.org/8MQv9B #Microbiology #Pathogenesis #StaphAureus #AntimicrobialTargets
How Staphylococcus aureus Exploits a Host Metabolite to Cause Pneumonia
Staphylococcus aureus is a formidable foe in healthcare settings, a leading cause of pneumonia that contributes significantly to illness and death worldwide. This ubiquitous bacterium, a common coloni...

Un 25e patient est actuellement traité par #phagothérapie @CHUdeLyon en sauvetage d’une #endocardite infectieuse sur prothèse à #staphaureus. Des injections intraveineuses directes sont réalisables et semblent sûres, car un cocktail hautement purifié de #phages peut être utilisé!

My pleasure to talk today at 6pm CET in Barcelona @hospitalclinic about #phagetherapy for #staphaureus infections with my friend Dr. A. Soriano. #bacteriophages are so promising for #prostheticjointinfections, but also for #bacteremia and #endocarditis! ➡️

As published by our group @BSACandJAC, #rifabutin, a #rifamycin available as #rifampin, has a great potential to be used in #bji and #prostheticjointinfection #pji as it is active at low dose against #staphaureus #persisters! 🔥
