SLIDE 7
In vivo implication remains however a matter of debate
Clearly established in in vitro models Few reports in vivo low density of intracellular foci destructive nature of S. aureus infection multiple mechanisms of adherence and invasion
SLIDE 8
- S. aureus can survive and multiply in
phagocytes and several other cell types
SLIDE 9 endothelial cells epithelial cells keratinocytes
But is this associated with pathology ?
SLIDE 10
In vivo implication remains however a matter of debate
Clearly established in in vitro models Few reports in vivo low density of intracellular foci destructive nature of S. aureus infection multiple mechanisms of adherence and invasion Useful to study to understand pathogenesis and explore therapeutic options
SLIDE 11 Setting up a model of intracellular infection
- ver a 24 h period of time
- infection of macrophages (with opsonized bacteria)
- Mouse (J774; 5 bact/cell)
- Human (THP-1; 4 bact/cell)
- washing with GEN 50 µg/ml to eliminate extracellular bacteria
- incubation for up to 24 h with
GEN 0.5 µg/ml (MIC) antibiotic under study no antibiotic gentamicin 0.5 mg/L
