NOVEL USE AND METHOD OF RAPAMYCIN TO TREAT TOXIC SHOCK

The toxic shock is induced, for example, by a toxin, such as Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA), Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB), toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-I), streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A (SPEA), and streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin C (SPEC).
