Interactions between S. aureus components and the host immune system

Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus is a significant human pathogen, able to cause a wide range of diseases. Emergence of multi drug-resistant strains puts a significant burden on healthcare providers and highlights a pressing need for alternative control regimes. This project set out to explore the interactions between S. aureus and the host immune system and demonstrated a novel role for commensal bacteria and their components in initiation of S. aureus infection.
