A set of 165 strains of different staphylococcal species, 67 Staphylococcus aureus, 71 novobiocin-sensitive coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) and 27 novobiocin-resistant CNS was used. The oxacillin and methicillin MICs were recorded after 24 and 42 h of incubation at 35 degrees C and at 30 degrees C. Significantly higher MICs were recorded at 30 degrees C compared with 35 degrees C. While ...

Cl-IB-MECA is a selective A3 adenosine receptor agonist, which plays a crucial role in limiting tumor progression. In mice, Cl-IB-MECA administration enhances the anti-tumor T cell-mediated response. However, little is known about the activity of Cl-IB-MECA on CD8+ T cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ex vivo Cl-IB-MECA treatment of CD8+ T cells, adoptively transferre...

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the most important multidrug-resistant pathogens around the world. MRSA is generated when methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) exogenously acquires a methicillin resistance gene, mecA, carried by a mobile genetic element, staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec), which is speculated to be transmissible across staphylococcal...

Oxacillin-susceptible, mecA-positive Staphylococcus aureus isolates create a treatment challenge for the clinician. In this article, we describe two cases of bacteremia from isolates that carried the mecA gene but were susceptible to oxacillin (oxacillin-susceptible methicillin-resistant S. aureus [OS-MRSA]). DNA microarray analysis was used to characterize these isolates as a mecA-positive, cl...

ClpC of Bacillus subtilis is an ATP-dependent HSP100Clp protein involved in general stress survival. A complex of ClpC with the protease ClpP and the adaptor protein MecA also controls competence development by regulated proteolysis of the transcription factor ComK. We investigated the in vitro chaperone activity of ClpC and found that the presence of MecA was crucial for the major chaperone ac...
