Poly-N-Acetylglucosamine Production by Staphylococcus epidermidis Cells Increases Their In Vivo Proinflammatory Effect

Poly-N-acetylglucosamine (PNAG) is a major component of the Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm extracellular matrix. However, it is not yet clear how this polysaccharide impacts the host immune response and infection-associated pathology. Faster neutrophil recruitment and bacterial clearance were ob...
