Characterization of Human Type C Enterotoxin Produced by Clinical S. epidermidis Isolates
Staphylococcal Enterotoxins (SEs) are superantigens (SAg) originally produced by S. aureus, but their presence in coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS) has long been suspected.

Allergy—A New Role for T Cell Superantigens of Staphylococcus aureus?
Staphylococcus aureus superantigens (SAgs) are among the most potent T cell mitogens known. They stimulate large fractions of T cells by cross-linking their T cell receptor with major histocompatibility complex class-II molecules on antigen presenting ...

ABSTRACT Background Cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a rare and heterogeneous group of skin‐homing lymphomas with a largely unknown pathogenesis. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) colonization has been implicated in exacerbating CTCL, particularly in advanced stages. Objectives This study assessed the prevalence of S.

Superantigens and Cystic Fibrosis: Resistance of Presenting Cells to Dexamethasone
Staphylococcus aureus , a common pulmonary pathogen in cystic fibrosis (CF), produces exotoxins that are extremely potent superantigens. A number of animal studies have shown that superantigens cause pulmonary inflammation, but the possible ...
