Binding of type-I and type-II collagens to Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from patients with toxic shock syndrome compared to other staphylococcal infections.
Toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1) producing strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from 18 patients with toxic shock syndrome (TSS) and from 56 patients with other diagnoses were compared for capacity to interact with various serum and connective tissue proteins. TSS associated isolates showed significantly stronger binding of Type-I collagen (Cn-I) and Cn-II than non-TSS strains, in a p...
متن کاملIdentification of Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) gene in Staphylococcus aureus isolated from bovine mastitis milk
Staphylococcus aureus is a major causative pathogen of clinical and subclinical mastitis of dairy domestic ruminants. This agent produces a variety of extracellular toxins and virulence factors including Toxic Shock Syndrome Toxin-1 (TSST-1) which is the major cause of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). In this study 58 S. aureus isolates obtained from 9 dairy herds in East and West Azerbaijan provinc...

متن کاملProduction of toxic-shock-associated protein(s) in Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from 1956 through 1982.
A total of 281 Staphylococcus aureus strains selected from those submitted to the Centers for Disease Control for phage typing between 1956 and 1982 were tested for the production of toxic-shock-associated protein (TSAP) by isoelectric focusing (IEF) and solid-phase radioimmunoassay. The results suggest that the observed temporal trends in the incidence of toxic-shock syndrome were not primaril...
متن کاملSubtyping of Chilean Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains carrying the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec type I
The cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) present in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has two essential components, the ccr gene complex and the mec gene complex. Additionally, SCCmec has non-essential components called J regions which are used for MRSA subtyping. This study was performed to determine subtypes MRSA strains carrying SCCmec type I based on polymorphism of regions loc...
