Molecular Genotyping of Tsst-1 Gene Staphylococcus Aureus from Clinical Specimen

Folia Medica Indonesiana, 2021
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is the most common pathogen in humans that causes various infections. Variations in infections due to S. aureus are related to the presence of virulence factors, one of which is Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1 ...

Candida albicans promotes TSST-1 production by Staphylococcus aureus through glucose depletion and relief of CcpA-mediated repression [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology
Menstrual toxic shock syndrome (mTSS) is a rare yet life-threatening disease that is caused when the opportunistic pathogenic bacterium Staphylococcus aureus releases the toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1) superantigen, which triggers systemic ...

β-(1→3)-D-glucan modulates DNA binding of nuclear factors κB, AT and IL-6 leading to an anti-inflammatory shift of the IL-1β/IL-1 receptor antagonist ratio [PDF]

BMC Immunology, 2006
Background β-1→3-D-glucans represent a pathogen-associated molecular pattern and are able to modify biological responses. Employing a comprehensive methodological approach, the aim of our in vitro study was to elucidate novel molecular and cellular ...

Distribution of tsst-1 and mecA Genes in Staphylococcus aureus Isolated From Clinical Specimens. [PDF]

Jundishapur J Microbiol, 2016
Staphylococcus aureus is a harmful pathogen known to express numerous virulence factors and cause severe infections. High levels of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains are one of the important healthcare problems because of the inefficient treatment of these infections.The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the incidence

Anti-staphylococcal humoral immune response in persistent nasal carriers and noncarriers of Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND. Persistent carriers have a higher risk of Staphylococcus aureus infections than noncarriers but a lower risk of bacteremia-related death. Here, the role played by anti-staphylococcal antibodies was studied. METHODS.

Inhibition of Toxic Shock Syndrome-Associated Staphylococcus aureus by Probiotic Lactobacilli

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Staphylococcus aureus is a human pathogen with many infections originating on mucosal surfaces. One common group of S. aureus is the USA200 (CC30) clonal group, which produces toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1). Many USA200 infections occur on mucosal

Epithelial proinflammatory response and curcumin-mediated protection from staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome toxin-1. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Staphylococcus aureus initiates infections and produces virulence factors, including superantigens (SAgs), at mucosal surfaces. The SAg, Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) induces cytokine secretion from epithelial cells, antigen presenting cells ...

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

Frontiers in Microbiology, 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).

Suppression of starvation-induced autophagy by recombinant toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 in epithelial cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1), a superantigen produced from Staphylococcus aureus, has been reported to bind directly to unknown receptor(s) and penetrate into non-immune cells but its function is unclear.
