    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Dermatitis exfoliativa, die bei Erwachsenen selten beschrieben wurde, bildete sich bei einem 38 Jahre alten Patienten aus, der wegen einem aktiven Hepatitis unter Steroidtherapie stand. Dabei wiesen die Parameter, die für die Staphylokken-immunabwehr wichtig sind, nämlich die Opsoninaktivität und Phagocytose, eine normale Funktion auf. Es bestanden aber eindeutige Defekte der neutrophilen Chemotaxis und der T-Lymphocyten-Funktion. Gestörte Abwehrfähigkeit der erwachsenen Patienten scheint eine signifikante Bedeutung in der Pathogenese der Syndroms einzunehmen.
    Notes: Summary Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome, a disease rarely reported in adults, developed in a 38-year-old male while on steroid therapy for chronic active hepatitis. Studies of immunologic parameters important in staphylococcal host defense revealed normal opsonic activity and phagocytic function but marked defects in neutrophil chemotaxis and T-lymphocyte function. Compromised host defense appears to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of the syndrome in adults.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Zwischen Januar 1970 und September 1977 kamen in der Klinik der Universität Minnesota 16 Patienten mit einer durch koagulase-negative Staphylokokken verursachten Endokarditis zur Behandlung. Sechs dieser Patienten hatten zuvor künstliche Herzklappen erhalten. Bei acht der übrigen 10 Patienten, (der nicht-chirurgischen Gruppe), waren Herzklappendefekte bekannt. Als Infektionsquelle ist bei acht Patienten die Haut anzuschuldigen. Prompte Behandlung von Hautinfektionen und Vermeidung von Injektionen sind deshalb als wesentliche Maßnahmen zur Verhütung von Endokarditiden bei Patienten mit Herzklappendefekten anzusehen. Antibiotika-resistente Staphylokokken und eine Mortalitat von 83% wurden in der post-chirurgischen Patientengruppe beobachtet im Gegensatz zu der nicht-chirurgischen Gruppe, die eine Mortalitat von 20% aufwies. Von drei Endokarditis-Patienten mit Herzklappen-Prothesen wurden Staphylokokken gezüchtet, die resistent gegen Methicillin waren. In zwei dieser Fälle wurden die Erreger darüber hinaus mittels quantitativer Resistenzprüfung als Cephalothin-resistent erkannt. Der einzige überlebende Endokarditis-Patient mit Herzklappen-Prothese war im Frühstadium seiner Endokarditis in chirurgische Behandlung übergeben worden. Diese Tatsache, verbunden mit der hohen Endokarditis-Mortalität bei Patienten mit Herzklappen-Prothesen, läßt frühestmögliche Herzoperation bei beginnender Endokarditis geraten erscheinen.
    Notes: Summary Sixteen patients with coagulase-negative staphylococcal endocarditis were treated at the University of Minnesota Hospitals between January 1970 and September 1977. In six patients, endocarditis developed after prosthetic valve surgery; among the other ten patients (the medical group), eight had known antecedent valvular disease. The skin was thought to be the source of infection in eight patients, suggesting that prompt treatment of skin infections and avoidance of injections in patients with valvular disease are important measures in the prevention of this disease. Patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis were infected with antibiotic-resistant organisms and had a higher mortality than those in the medical group (83% versus 20%). Bacterial isolates from three patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis were resistant to methicillin, and two of these three isolates also were resistant to cephalothin by quantitative susceptibility testing. The only patient with prosthetic valve endocarditis to survive was operated upon early in the course of his illness. Thes observation, coupled with the high mortality in this series and in others, has prompted us to advocate early surgery in prosthetic valve endocarditis.

    Notes: Abstract A quantitative coculture assay is described for determining susceptibility of HIV-1 isolates to zidovudine and sCD4 (178)-PE40 (a 60 kDa hybrid protein consisting of the gp120 binding region of CD4 linked to the translocation and ADP-ribosylation regions ofPseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin). The assay was relatively simple to perform and gave highly reproducible results often within three to five days. IC50 values of zidovudine for HIV-1 strains isolated from two AIDS patients and an asymptomatic seropositive individual were in the range 0.001–0.002 µmol. Isolates obtained after six months of zidovudine treatment had zidovudine IC50 values of 0.01–0.5 µmol. All isolates were equally sensitive to sCD4 (178)-PE40 (IC50 1–5 µg/ml). HIV-1 activation in the chronically infected cell line U-1 was inhibited by sCD4 (178)-PE40 but not by zidovudine.

    Notes: Abstract Bacteroides fragilis grown in the presence of sub-inhibitory concentrations of clindamycin was shown to be altered its degree of encapsulation and susceptibility to phagocytosis by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Little polysaccharide capsule could be demonstrated either by light or transmission electron microscopy when the bacteria were grown anaerobically for four hours in the presence of 1/2 MIC of clindamycin. Such clindamycin-grown cells could be opsonized by normal human serum, and although less complement was consumed in the process, were more effectively taken up by the leukocytes than bacteria grown in the absence of the drug (45 % versus 24 %). It was also shown that drug treatment caused significant cellular leakage in the presence of serum, the3H-label appearing extracellularly. In addition there was greater loss of viability of the bacterial cells grown in the presence of the drug and subsequently exposed to the leukocytes for 60 min.

    Notes: Abstract Evidence is presented that antibodies against staphylococcal peptidoglycan are important opsonins for phagocytosis of staphylococci. Cell wall protein A inhibits opsonization by IgG through its interaction with the Fc fragment of the IgG molecule and preventing therefore the binding between the Fc fragment and the Fc receptor of the cell membrane of the leukocyte. Extracellular protein A interferes with opsonization presumably through depletion of complement.
