Human monoclonal antibodies against Staphylococcus aureus surface antigens recognize in vitro biofilm and in vivo implant infections

Abstract: Implant-associated Staphylococcus aureus infections are difficult to treat because of biofilm formation. Bacteria in a biofilm are often insensitive to antibiotics and host immunity. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) could provide an alternative approach to improve the diagnosis and/or treatment of biofilm-related infections. Here we show that mAbs targeting common surface components of S. aureus can recognize clinically relevant biofilm types. We identify two groups of antibodies: one group that uniquely binds S. … Show more

“…The antibody disrupted biofilms formed by S. typhimurium and eventually enhanced the efficacy of antibiotic treatment in vivo. In mice, a 3H3 injection showed antibiotic conciliated clearance of S. typhimurium biofilms in catheters [211][212][213][214]. Sun et al used a mixture of two MAbs, 12C6/12A1 and 3C1/12A1, which synergistically reduced the attachment and accumulation of S. epidermidis up to 87% [215].…”
