Staphylococcus aureus Mnh1 cation/proton antiporter promotes phagocytic uptake and intracellular survival in human monocytes

Aya Iizuka, Maria-Vittoria Mazzuoli, Emre Demirbilek, Anne-Kathrin Woischnig, Richard Küehl, Vincent de Bakker, Dirk Bumann, Annelies Sophie Zinkernagel, Jan‐Willem Veening, Nina Khanna

This study identifies Mnh1 as a key cation/proton antiporter promoting S. aureus phagocytic uptake and intracellular survival in human monocytes, suggesting it as a therapeutic target.

Microgeography of staphyloccoci in human tissue explains antibiotic failure

Vishwachi Tripathi, Benedict Morin, Minia Antelo-Varela, Aline Amani Loriol, Kristiina Kurg, Sandro Jakonia, Asvin Ehsan, Sébastien Herbert, Alexia Ferrand, Loïc Sauteur, Florian C Marro, Noemi Henselmann, Jasmin Künnecke, Fabienne Estermann, Kerstin Strenger, , Dirk Bumann

The paper maps Staphylococcus aureus microgeography in human tissue using AI-guided imaging and finds antibiotic failure is linked to intracellular bacterial persistence and metabolic constraints.
