Short summary

Functional differences in Staphylococcus strains, identified through high-resolution sequencing, culturing, and animal models, contribute to the complexity of pediatric atopic dermatitis (AD).

Key points

  • Functional differences exist between strains of *Staphylococcus aureus* and *Staphylococcus epidermidis*.
  • These strain-specific functional differences contribute to the complexity of pediatric atopic dermatitis (AD).
  • High-resolution sequencing, culturing, and animal models were used to demonstrate these findings.
  • The study highlights the role of staphylococcal strain diversity in AD.
