Abstract Staphylococcus aureus is the most frequent aetiology of bone and joint infections (BJI) and can cause relapsing and chronic infections. One of the main factors involved in the chronicization of staphylococcal BJIs is the internalization of S. aureus into osteoblasts, the bone-forming cells....
