Ganglioside and monosaccharide inhibition of nonspecific lymphocyte mitogenicity by group A streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxins.

P M Schlievert, D J Schoettle, D W Watson.   

Abstract

Group A streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxins (SPE) types A, B, and C are potent nonspecific lymphocyte mitogens. The mitogenicity of these exotoxins was inhibited by gangliosides and sialic acid, whereas concanavalin A was unaffected. The capacity of both concanavalin A and SPE-A to stimulate lymphocytes was suppressed by alpha-methyl-D-mannopyranoside. Galactose reduced the activity of SPE-C. The sugars, glucose, N-acetylglucosamine, alpha-methyl-D-glucopyranoside, and fucose, did not affect SPE mitogenicity.
