Staphylococcus aureus protein A induced inflammatory response in human corneal epithelial cells

In the present study, we examined the role of S. aureus protein A (SpA) in inducing inflammatory response in HCECs. Exposure of HCECs to SpA induces rapid NF-κB activation and secretion of proinflammatory cytokine/chemokines (TNF-α and IL-8) in both concentration and time-dependent manner. Challenge...
