Host-pathogen interactions of clinical S. aureus isolates to induce infective endocarditis

To evaluate potential pathomechanisms in the induction of infective endocarditis (IE), 34 Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) isolates, collected from patients with S. aureus endocarditis and from healthy individuals were investigated both in vitro and in vivo. S. aureus isolates were tested in vitro...
