Staphylococcus argenteus[1] are gram-positive cocci from the genus Staphylococcus which have been isolated from blood culture of a 55-year-old Indigenous Australian female in 2006 in Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia.[2][3][1] The species is close related to S. aureus and the differentiation is challenging.[4] While it is hard to differentiate between S. aureus and S. argenteus, it can be done via multilocus sequence typing (MSLT).[5] S. argenteus can cause infections in the blood stream, skin/soft tissue, bones and joints.[6] The species has also been identified in cases of food poisoning.[6] Staphylococcus argenteus is cytotoxic to human cells due to high expression of alpha-hemolysin.[7]
Whole-genome comparisons prove that S. argenteus shares half of its core genome with Staphylococcus aureus, supporting its independent classification and separate monophyletic groups.[8] The species has been linked to skin, respiratory, and bloodstream infections. The virulence and antibiotic-resistance genes differ between strains, but all contain genomic islands like those in S. aureus.[8] Several isolates in Thailand contained unique livestock-associated genes, including tetracycline resistance genes and exotoxins previously observed in S. aureus, indicating the potential for gene transfer between the two Staphylococcus species.[9] ST2250 sequence type is the most dominant strain, especially in Thailand, but the entire species has been isolated in 14 countries.[8] There have been reports of methicillin-resistant strains of the species in Dutch hospitals dating back to 2008, displaying its ability to transmit and spread antibiotic resistance genes.[10]
