Patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) are frequently colonized with Staphylococcus aureus (SA). Eradication of SA is, importantly, associated with significant clinical improvement, suggesting that SA promotes the disease activity, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly characterized. Here, we show
