Antibiotic treatment failure in Staphylococcus aureus infections is frequently associated with antimicrobial resistance or the emergence of small-colony variants (SCVs), a metabolically quiescent phenotype that complicates infection management. Here, we show that ciprofloxacin induces a stable SC...
Chronic, drug-resistant bone infection caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) features an immunosuppressive niche enabling persistent infection and impaired bone healing. Specific treatment requires initial antibacterial immune activation against infection, followed by resha...
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a highly adapted intracellular parasite that depends entirely on the host cell's metabolic resources and energy for the synthesis of viral components. However, the mechanisms by which BVDV remodels host lipid metabolism remain unclear. In this study, we explo...
