Transcriptomic Profiling of TSST-1–Induced Cytotoxicity and Inflammatory Responses in Human Vaginal Epithelial Cells

2026-04-09

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> Objective Toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1) is a critical superantigen produced by certain staphylococcal strains, closely associated with menstrual toxic shock syndrome and mucosal inflammation. While the systemic superantigenic function of TSST-1 is well-established, its early cytotoxic and inflammatory effects on human vaginal epithelial cells (HVEC) remain poorly characterized....
