A Peptide Antagonist of CD28 Signaling Attenuates Toxic Shock and Necrotizing Soft-Tissue Infection Induced by Streptococcus pyogenes

Staphylococcus aureus and group A Streptococcus pyogenes (GAS) express superantigen (SAg) exotoxin proteins capable of inducing lethal shock. To induce toxicity, SAgs must bind not only to the major histocompatibility complex II molecule of antigen-presenting cells and the variable β chain of the T-...
