Rat Model of Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B-Induced Rhinosinusitis [PDF]
ObjectivesIt has been proposed that microbial persistence, superantigen (SA) production, and host T-cell response may be involved in the development of chronic rhinosinusitis.

As in the case of cancer, the risk of infection increases when the host's immune system is not working properly. It has been shown that toxins produced by the bacteria responsible for bacterial infections can alter the properties of cancer cells as well ...

Transport and processing of staphylococcal enterotoxin B [PDF]
A larger, membrane-bound form of staphylococcal enterotoxin B was shown by in vivo pulse-chase analysis to be the kinetic precursor to extracellular enterotoxin B. Processing of the enterotoxin B precursor molecules can apparently occur either cotranslationally or posttranslationally.

Chromosomal locus for staphylococcal enterotoxin B [PDF]
The genetic locus of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) was investigated in the Staphylococcus aureus food-poisoning isolates, strains S6 and 277. Direct neutral sucrose gradient centrifugation analysis of sodium dodecyl sulfate-sodium chloride-mediated cleared lysates demonstrated that strain S6 contained a single 37S plasmid.

γ Irradiation of Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B [PDF]
The inactivation of enterotoxin B by γ irradiation was studied by use of single-and double-gel-diffusion assay techniques. Enterotoxin B (99+% purity) was suspended either in 0.04 m Veronal buffer ( p H 7.2) or in milk, dispensed and heat-sealed in ...

A DNA Spiegelmer to staphylococcal enterotoxin B [PDF]
Bacterial staphylococcal enterotoxin B is involved in several severe disease patterns and it was therefore used as a target for the generation of biologically stable mirror-image oligonucleotide ligands, so called Spiegelmers. The toxin is a 28 kDa protein consisting of 239 amino acids.

Staphylococcus aureus superantigens (SAgs) such as staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) and B (SEB) are potent toxins stimulating T cells to produce high levels of inflammatory cytokines, thus causing toxic shock and sepsis.

PURIFICATION OF TYPE B STAPHYLOCOCCAL ENTEROTOXIN [PDF]
Frea, James I. (University of Wisconsin, Madison), Elizabeth McCoy, and F. M. Strong . Purification of type B staphylococcal enterotoxin. J. Bacteriol. 86: 1308–1313. 1963.—A procedure for the production and isolation of type B staphylococcal enterotoxin in yields up to 4 mg per ...

Background Infections in communities and hospitals are mostly caused by Staphylococcus aureus strains. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of five genes (SEA, SEB, SEC, SED and SEE) encoding staphylococcal enterotoxins in S. aureus isolates from

Molecular Screening of Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B Gene in Clinical Isolates [PDF]
Objective: The role of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) in food poisoning is well known,however its role in other diseases remains to be explored.
