Abstract
Colonization of the nasal mucosal with Staphylococcus aureus and the production of superantigenic enterotoxins by the bacteria are crucial amplifying factors of the pro-inflammatory mechanisms operating in chronic upper airways diseases such as chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyposis.

Colonization of the nasal mucosal with Staphylococcus aureus and the production of superantigenic enterotoxins by the bacteria are crucial amplifying factors of the pro-inflammatory mechanisms operating in chronic upper airways diseases such as chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyposis
We demonstrated that S. aureus enterotoxin B may influence important pathways linked to T-cell receptor, interferon signalling and adaptative immune response
