ABSTRACT The efficacy of linezolid and temporin A in the prevention of prosthetic graft infection due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis with intermediate resistance to glycopeptides was investigated in a subcutaneous rat pouch model. Linezolid and temporin A, alone or combined, greatly reduced the bacterial numbers compared to the effect with control drugs.

Persistent endovascular infections caused by MRSA, including vascular graft infection syndromes and infective endocarditis, are significant and growing public health threats. A particularly worrisome trend is that most MRSA isolates from these patients are “susceptible” in vitro to conventional anti-MRSA antibiotics, such as VAN and daptomycin (DAP), based on Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute breakpoints.
