Analysis of the superantigenic activity of mutant and allelic forms of streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A.

Infection and immunity - 1 Mar 1996

Kline J B, Collins C M

Abstract excerpt

Infections with Streptococcus pyogenes (group A streptococcus) can result in the recently described streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS), which is characterized by rashes, hypotension, multiorgan failure, and a high mortality rate. S. pyogenes isolates associated with STSS usually produce st...
