    Malak Kotb
    Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Research Service, Memphis, Tennessee, USA
    Nat Med 8:1398-404. 2002
    ..We propose that human leukocyte antigen class II allelic variation contributes to differences in severity of invasive streptococcal infections through their ability to regulate cytokine responses triggered by streptococcal superantigens...

    ..8 ng/mL and insulin free until suffering a rejection episode 3 months later. We observed that human islet graft function in NOD-SCID mice correlated with clinical response in islet transplant recipients...

    A Norrby-Teglund
    Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Research Service, Memphis, TN, USA
    Eur J Immunol 30:3247-55. 2000
    ..We therefore conclude that host factors influence the magnitude of cytokine responses to superantigens and consequently the clinical outcome of the infection...

    S U Kazmi
    Research Service, Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Memphis, Tennessee 38104, USA
    Infect Immun 69:4988-95. 2001
    ..This underscores the role of the host-pathogen interaction in regulating the expression of streptococcal virulence factors in vivo. The model described here should facilitate such studies...
