Superantigen Profile of Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Patients with Steroid-Resistant Atopic Dermatitis

BACKGROUND: Superantigens induce skin inflammatory responses in atopic dermatitis, which is commonly associated with Staphylococcus aureus infection. T cells activated in vitro by superantigens become steroid resistant. The objective was to assess the superantigen profiles of S. aureus isolates from...
