Bacteria-host transcriptional response during endothelial invasion by Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract Staphylococcus aureus is the cause of serious vascular infections such as sepsis and endocarditis. These infections are notoriously difficult to treat, and it is believed that the ability of S. aureus to invade endothelial cells and persist intracellularly is a key mechanism for persistence...

description Abstract Staphylococcus aureus is the cause of serious vascular infections such as sepsis and endocarditis.

We revealed discrete and shared differentially expressed genes for both host and pathogen at the different stages of infection.
