Bacterial peritonitis remains a serious complication of peritoneal dialysis. Although Staphylococcus epidermidis is the most common pathogen involved, infections with Staphylococcus aureus lead to severe peritoneal damage and are often associated with a dramatic loss of mesothelial cells. Induction of cell death appears to be involved in peritoneal damage and mesothelial cell loss during bacterial infections. Using cultured human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HMCs), we investigated the ability of different S. epidermidis and S. aureus strains to damage the HMC monolayer and to trigger cell death. We show that only a subgroup of live S. aureus isolates, characterized by an invasive and α-hemolysin-producing phenotype, induces cell death. Non...
