Abstract:
BACKGROUND/AIMS:Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) acts as a superantigen binding to class II major histocompatibility complex proteins, and this complex stimulates T cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the pathogenic effects of SEB on hepatic injury and lethal shock in mice. METHODS:SEB was administered to D-galactosamine (GalN)-sensitized mice, and the degree of liver injury and levels of circulating cytokines were determined. In vitro cytokine production in response to SEB was also investigated. RESULTS:Intraperitoneal administration of SEB (50 micrograms) caused lethal shock (50% mortality) associated with massive hepatic necrosis in GalN-sensitized mice, with no mortality on injection of up to 100 micrograms SEB alone. Within 2 hours after injection of SEB, serum tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) levels reached a peak, followed by high levels of serum interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) up to 10 hours after injection. Passive immunization with anti-TNF-alpha/beta-neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) protected GalN-sensitized mice from the lethal effects of SEB, with less protection with anti-IFN-gamma-neutralizing mAb. SEB induced the production of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma in a dose-dependent manner from splenic mononuclear cells in vitro. CONCLUSIONS:The results show that SEB contributes to lethal shock associated with severe hepatic injury in GalN-sensitized mice and suggest that TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma produced in response to SEB may be mediators of the lethal toxicity and hepatotoxicity of SEB.
