Effects of staphylococcal enterotoxin on ciliary activity and histology of the sinus mucosa

Abstract: After exposure to low doses of SEA (0.03 and 0.3 ng/ml), CBF did not decrease, but after exposure to high doses of SEA (1.5, 3, and 30 ng/ml), CBF decreased significantly as a function of time. At 24 h after instillation of high-dose SEA (30 ng/ml) into the sinus, CBF decreased significantly and rhinosinusitis was induced after 7 days. Although no alteration was observed in the CBF of the sinus mucosa after instillation of low-dose SEA (0.3 ng/ml), histological findings of rhinosinusitis including subepithelia… Show more

“…Pathogens such as P. aeruginosa, H. influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and S. aureus secrete toxins that directly suppress ciliary motion. [566][567][568][569] Pyocyanin, a toxin produced by P. aeruginosa, not only causes progressive slowing, but also makes the cilia unable to respond to mechanical simulation by other factors. 570 H. influenzae toxins destroy cilia entirely at high concentrations, resulting in mucus stasis from ciliary loss.…”

“…A hallmark of CRS is mucociliary stasis, in which bacteria are inadequately cleared. At pathogenic levels of proliferation, bacterial toxins can be destructive to cells and cilia, perpetuating the process of impaired mucociliary function [47]. It is known that sinonasal explants from patients with CRS have an attenuated response to a variety of compounds (bitter and non-bitter) that stimulate ciliary beating in control tissue [48].…”
