Meticillin‐resistant staph aureus (MRSA) continues to cause
a serious threat to human health. In animals, MRSA has become established as a
veterinary infectious agent in pets and horses; in eutherian mammal, it
presents a priority for public health as a reservoir that may infect humans and
as a supply of transferrable resistance genes.
Genetic analyses have discovered that the medicine of MRSA
is completely different in numerous animal hosts. whereas human
hospital‐associated MRSA lineages area unit most typically concerned in pet
infection and carriage, horse‐specific MRSA most frequently represent
‘traditional’ equine S. aureus lineages. A recent development within the
medicine of animal MRSA is that the emergence of pig‐adapted strains, like
CC398 and CC9, that seem to possess arisen severally within the pig population.
Recent insight into the order structure and also the
evolution of S. aureus has helped to clarify key aspects of those 3 distinct
medical specialty eventualities. This nonsystematic literature review
summarizes the structure and variations of the S. aureus order and offers an
outline of this distribution of MRSA lineages in varied animal species. It
additionally discusses gift data concerning the emergence and evolution of MRSA
in animals, adaptation to completely different host species and response to
selective pressure from animal‐specific environments.
An improved understanding of the biology and selective
pressure that underpin the accommodative behaviour of S. aureus is also
employed in the long run to predict new developments in cocci diseases and to
research novel management ways needed at a time of skyrocketing resistance to
antimicrobial agents.
