摘要
超抗原是一类由细菌、病毒等产生的具有强丝裂原活性的外毒素,与主要组织相容性复合体Ⅱ结合,刺激T细胞产生并释放大量的促炎细胞因子,在极低浓度下即可刺激机体产生超强免疫应答,是迄今发现的最有效的T细胞丝裂原。链球菌超抗原在链球菌感染致病过程中发挥重要作用,可促进链球菌的定植、增殖和传播。深入研究链球菌超抗原生物学特性对了解链球菌致病机制、预防和治疗链球菌感染具有重要意义。本文主要探讨链球菌超抗原的分类及特点、致病机制与开发应用等相关研究进展,为临床认识和深入研究相关疾病提供参考。
Superantigens are highly mitogenic exotoxins produced by bacteria and viruses.They can bind to the major histocompatibility complex classⅡ,stimulate T cell receptor molecules to release a large quantity of proinflammatory cytokines,and activate the immune system in vastly low concentrations.Superantigens have been the most effective T cell mitogen discovered so far.Superantigens play important roles in infection diseases caused by streptococcal pathogens,and they can facilitate pathogen colonization,proliferation,and dissemination.Further research of biological chara-cteristics of streptococcus superantigens is vital to understanding the streptococcus pathogenesis,prevention and treatment of streptococcus infection.In this article,advances in the classification,biological properties,pathogenesis,deve-lopment and application of streptococcal superantigens were reviewed,so as to improve the clinical understanding and provide reference for in-depth research of related diseases.
