Data_Sheet_1_The Association Between Onset of Staphylococcal Non-menstrual Toxic Shock Syndrome With Inducibility of Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 Production.docx

open access: yes, 2022
Non-menstrual toxic shock syndrome (non-mTSS) is a life-threatening disease caused by Staphylococcus aureus strains producing superantigens, such as staphylococcal enterotoxins A, B, C, and toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1).

Intracellular expression of toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1994
In order to search for an occult cytotoxic enzymatic activity of the toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1), we placed the gene encoding TSST-1 (tstH) under the control of an inducible promoter in the eukaryotic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Under similar circumstances, the known bacterial enzymatic cytotoxins Shiga-like toxin and diphtheria toxin are

Monoclonal Antibodies Against Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 And Their Use In Diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Toxic shock syndrome toxin -1 (TSST-1) is a 22kDa extracellular protein produced by some strains of Staphylococcus aureus. It is implicated in the pathogenesis of toxic shock syndrome, an acute life-threatening multisystem disease.

Swine methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus carrying toxic-shock syndrome toxin gene in Hong Kong, China

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2020
We report a SCCmec II, ST39 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolate from pigs that harboured toxic-shock syndrome toxin gene (tsst-1). The gene was located in a rare pathogenicity island SaPI68111, which also carried enterotoxin genes that ...

Human scFvs That Counteract Bioactivities of Staphylococcus aureus TSST-1

open access: yesToxins, 2017
Some Staphylococcus aureus isolates produced toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1) which is a pyrogenic toxin superantigen (PTSAg). The toxin activates a large fraction of peripheral blood T lymphocytes causing the cells to proliferate and release ...

TSST-1 protein exerts indirect effect on platelet activation and apoptosis

open access: yesPlatelets, 2022
Thrombocytopenia or platelet dysfunction is a risk factor for severe infection. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) releases a variety of virulence factors especially toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1), which may cause toxic shock syndrome. S.

Interaction of toxin-1 and T lymphocytes in toxic shock syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2014
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a potentially fatal illness caused by infection with the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. TSS toxin-1 (TSST-1) contains a T-cell epitope with specificity for human V-beta-2. Binding of TSST-1 to the human major histocompatibility complex and T cell receptors activates T cells and triggers the secretion of high amounts of ...

Expression of toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 gene of Staphylococcus aureus in milk: Proof of concept

open access: yesMljekarstvo, 2018
The aim of this study was to assess the expression of a toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1) gene of Staphylococcus aureus in different types of milk, depending on inadequate temperature and storage conditions.
