## Abstract The pathogenesis of the toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is only incompletely understood. We now present evidence that TSS toxin‐1 (TSST‐1), one of the superantigens produced by __Staphylococcus aureus__, induces lethal shock in D‐galactosamine sensitized mice. In this model TSS is dependent

Although bacterial superantigens have been well characterized as potent stimulators of T cells, their role in natural killer (NK)-type cells remains largely unknown. In the present study, we examined the effect of bacterial superantigens on mouse liver NK cells and NK1.1 Ag ؉ (NK1 ؉ ) T cells. C57BL

## Abstract We have used a new polymerase chain reaction‐based technique to analyze at the clonal level the CDR3 diversity and the Jβ usage associated with the Vβ‐dependent T cell receptor (TCR) recognition of two superantigens: the staphylococcal enterotoxin B and the __Urtica dioica__ agglutinin.
