How can you use “aureus” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Utilization of an anti-mouse TRAIL antibody would be predicted to further reduce the level of S. aureus -induced apoptosis in infected mouse osteoblast cultures.
In the case of recurrent S. aureus infections in Robesonia (Table 1), it was evident that a persistent source of S. aureus was present.
Briefly, normal mouse osteoblasts were infected with S. aureus strain UAMS-1 at various MOI in the presence and absence of an anti-TRAIL polyclonal antibody (rabbit anti-human TRAIL/Apo2L, Cell Sciences, Inc., Norwood, MA).
Binding involves a family of adhesins that interact with extracellular matrix components, and these adhesins have been termed microbial surface components recognizing adhesive matrix molecules (MSCRAMMs) [ 1 ] . Specific MSCRAMMs are responsible for localization of S. aureus to particular tissues, and include fibronectin-binding proteins (FnBPs) [ 2 3 ] , fibrinogen-binding proteins [ 4 5 6 ] , elastin-binding adhesin [ 7 ] collagen-binding adhesion [ 8 ] , and a broad-specificity adhesin (MAP) that facilitates low-affinity binding of S. aureus to several proteins, including osteopontin, collagen, bone sialoprotein, fibronectin, fibrinogen, and vitronectin [ 9 ] . S. aureus can utilize MSCRAMMs to adhere directly to cells or can attach to cells through the use of bridging ligands such as Hsp60 which has an affinity for both MSCRAMMs and the β 1 -integrin host cell receptor [ 10 11 ] . Interaction of S. aureus with host cells via MSCRAMMs can induce signal transduction, tyrosine kinase activity, and cytoskeletal rearrangement [ 12 ] .
Briefly, cultured normal mouse osteoblasts were infected with S. aureus in the presence or absence of anti-TRAIL polyclonal antibody as described above or stimulated with cychloheximide (10 μg/ml).
