Abstract:Osteomyelitis is a pathological condition of the bone, frequently associated with the presence of infectious agents – namely Staphylococcus aureus – that induce inflammation and tissue destruction. Recent advances in the understanding of its pathophysiology and the identification of innovative therapeutic approaches were gathered from experimental in vitro and in vivo systems. However, cell culture models offer limited representativeness of the cellular functionality and the cell–cell and cell‐matrix interacti… Show more
