  • Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen that can cause mild to severe life-threatening infections in many tissues and organs. Platelets are known to participate in protection against S. aureus by direct killing and by enhancing the activities of neutrophils and macrophages in clearing S. aureus infection.
