“…21 In addition to causing infections, S. aureus is the most common opportunistic pathogen colonizing the human anterior nares. [13][14][15] S. aureus may carry toxins which can act as superantigens that activate large numbers of CD4 þ cells and have been implicated in various autoimmune diseases, including MS, Wegener's granulomatosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. 8 2.2 (0.9-5.3) 1 þ hospitalization in the last year (reference ¼ 0 hospitalizations) 0.4 (0.1-1.9) Co-morbid diseases (reference ¼ 0 or 1 disease only)…”

“…This suggests there is no difference in the host-pathogen interaction making MS patients more susceptible to colonization with S. aureus. [13][14][15] It is hypothesized that in the absence of infection, the production of sea, seb, or tsst-1 from colonizing S. aureus in the anterior nares may be enough to trigger a CD4 þ response, which may result in an MS exacerbation. Evidence for this hypothesis is found in studies showing that individuals colonized with S. aureus harbouring superantigens produce antibodies to these molecules.…”
