JMM Case Rep . 2018 Oct; 5(8):e005159. PMID: 30323935
Introduction: Cryptosporidium infection is known to cause hepato-biliary involvement, mainly in association with T-cell immune deficiency. Hepato-biliary involvement in association with milder immunosuppression is less well described. We describe the...

BMC Microbiol . 2012 May; 12:76. PMID: 22594478
Background: The skin commensal and opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus epidermidis is a leading cause of hospital-acquired and biomaterial-associated infections. The polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (PIA), a homoglycan composed of β-1,6-linked N-acetylglucosamine residues,...

Top Curr Chem . 2012 Feb; 288:157-82. PMID: 22328030
Medical device-associated infections, most frequently caused by Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus, are of increasing importance in modern medicine. The formation of adherent, multilayered bacterial biofilms is crucial in the...
