Group A streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin: pyrogenicity, alteration of blood-brain barrier, and separation of sites for pyrogenicity and enhancement of lethal endotoxin shock.

Group A streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin type C (SPE C) was shown to produce fever by crossing the blood-brain barrier. The toxin directly stimulated the hypothalamic fever response control center, thus bypassing a requirement for endogenous pyrogen release. SPE C was detected in the cerebrospinal f...
