Human Cathelicidin LL-37 Resistance and Increased Daptomycin MIC in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Strain USA600 (ST45) Are Associated with Increased Mortality in a Hospital Setting

Bacteremia caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) USA600 has been associated with increased patient mortality. We found that USA600 MRSA exhibited significantly increased resistance to human cathelicidin LL-37 killing and daptomycin MIC creep compared to non-USA600 MRSA. Virule...
