SAG stands for Super Antigen which is a body of Antigens which result in non - specific activation of T - cells which lead to what is called polyclonal T cell activation and colossal cytokine release. There are Pathogenic Microbes which can produce SAGs which act as a type of security system adjacent to the immune system. SAG's obtain good capacity of stimulating stimulate as much as 20% of the body's T-cell when compared to regular antigen - induced T - cell response.
