The effect of Staphylococcus aureus carriage in late pregnancy on antibody levels to staphylococcal toxins in cord blood and breast milk. [PDF]

, 2008
We investigated the effect of carriage of Staphylococcus aureus in the later stages of pregnancy on levels of antibody specific to the S. aureus toxins, staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB), staphylococcal enterotoxin C (SEC) and toxic shock syndrome toxin-

Transport and processing of staphylococcal enterotoxin A [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985
A larger-molecular-weight precursor of enterotoxin A was found in membranes of Staphylococcus aureus and was shown to be the kinetic precursor to the extracellular form of the toxin. Subcellular fractionation revealed that mature enterotoxin A was transiently associated with the cell wall before being released to the extracellular environment.

Graduate Student Literature Review: Enterotoxigenic potential and antimicrobial resistance of staphylococci from Brazilian artisanal raw milk cheeses

Journal of Dairy Science, 2022
: More than 30 types of artisanal cheeses are known in Brazil; however, microorganisms, such as Staphylococcus spp., can contaminate raw milk cheeses through different sources, from milking to processing.

CD28 and T cell antigen receptor signal transduction coordinately regulate interleukin 2 gene expression in response to superantigen stimulation. [PDF]

, 1992
Activation of an immune response requires intercellular contact between T lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells (APC). Interaction of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) with antigen in the context of major histocompatibility molecules mediates signal ...

Heterogeneity of the humoral immune response following Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia [PDF]

, 2010
Expanding knowledge on the humoral immune response in Staphylococcus aureus-infected patients is a mandatory step in the development of vaccines and immunotherapies. Here, we present novel insights into the antibody responses following S.

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.

Detection of Enterotoxigenic Staphylococcus aureus Strains in Raw Milk of Cows Reared in Erbil Province/Iraq

Zanco Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences, 2019
Raw milk is usually contaminated with enterotoxin-producing Staphylococcus ¬aureus, which is regularly associated with staphylococcal food poisoning. The present study was conducted to investigate the occurrence of Staphylococcus aureus and enterotoxin ...

Staphylococcal enterotoxin B influences the DNA methylation pattern in nasal polyp tissue : a preliminary study [PDF]

, 2013
Staphylococcal enterotoxins may influence the pro-inflammatory pattern of chronic sinus diseases via epigenetic events. This work intended to investigate the potential of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) to induce changes in the DNA methylation pattern.

Regulation of staphylococcal enterotoxin B [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1977
The effect of glucose and the glucose analogues 2-deoxyglucose and alpha-methyl-glucoside on the synthesis and regulation of staphylococcal enterotoxin B was examined. The attenuating effect of glucose on staphylococcal enterotoxin B synthesis was observed.

Blood Immunopathology of Tuberculosis Patients Disrupts Monocyte‐Dependent T‐Cell Activation and Cytokine Expression

Immunology, EarlyView.
TB serum selectively disrupts monocyte‐dependent PHA T cell activation and cytokines associated with proliferation while preserving SEB T cell and Pam3/PHA monocyte cytokine responses. ABSTRACT Pulmonary tuberculosis in humans is characterised by features of immunopathology, which influence both antimycobacterial therapy and the long‐term prognosis. In
