IsdA and IsdB antibodies protect mice against Staphylococcus aureus abscess formation and lethal challenge
Open accessAbstract
Staphylococcus aureus is the most frequent cause of bacteremia and hospital-acquired infection, however a vaccine that prevents staphylococcal disease is currently not available. Two sortase-anchored surface proteins, IsdA and IsdB, have been identified as subunit vaccines that, following active immunization, protect experimental animals against intravenous challenge with staphylococci. Here we investigate the molecular basis of this immunity and report that, when passively transferred to naïve mice, purified antibodies directed against IsdA or IsdB protected against staphylococcal abscess formation and lethal intravenous challenge. When added to mouse blood, IsdA- or IsdB-specific antibodies did not promote rapid opsonophagocytic killing of wild-type staphylococci. Antibodies directed against IsdA interfered with heme-binding and IsdB antibodies perturbed the ability of this surface protein to bind hemoglobin. As the structural genes for isdA and isdB are required for heme-iron scavenging during the pathogenesis of infection, we hypothesize that IsdA and IsdB antibodies may at least in part provide protection against staphylococci by interfering with the pathogen's heme-iron scavenging mechanisms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
