Abrin Poisoning in an 18-Month-Old Child [PDF]
American Journal of Case Reports, 2015 When discussing known poisons and their clinical consequences, few physicians are aware of the deadly poison abrin. The common symptoms of abrin toxicity include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea with or without bloody stool. However, with an estimated fatal human dose of less than 1 microgram/kg, death due to complications such as liver ...

Effect of Abrin on Peptide Chain Initiation [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1977 Cell‐free systems from wheat germ were preincubated before and after addition of immunoglobulin mRNA to generate systems dependent and independent on peptide chain initiation, respectively. When abrin A chain was added, the system dependent on peptide chain initiation was much more strongly inhibited than the system measuring primarily chain elongation.

Antibodies in breast milk: Pro‐bodies designed for healthy newborn development
Immunological Reviews, Volume 328, Issue 1, Page 192-204, November 2024.Summary This manuscript sheds light on the impact of maternal breast milk antibodies on infant health. Milk antibodies prepare and protect the newborn against environmental exposure, guide and regulate the offspring's immune system, and promote transgenerational adaptation of the immune system to its environment.

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 184, Issue 1, Page 19-36, January 2024.The dried bean beetle, Acanthoscelides obtectus, is an economically important pest of stored legumes worldwide. We review the semiochemistry of the mate‐ and host‐finding behaviour of A. obtectus and provide new information about the effect of seed chemistry on the sensory and behavioural ecology of host acceptance and larval development.

Exploring Cytotoxic mRNAs as a Novel Class of Anti-cancer Biotherapeutics
Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2018 New treatments to overcome the obstacles of conventional anti-cancer therapy are a permanent subject of investigation. One promising approach is the application of toxins linked to cell-specific ligands, so-called immunotoxins.

Detection of Abrin by Electrochemiluminescence Biosensor Based on Screen Printed Electrode
Sensors, 2018 For the convenience of fast measurement in the outdoor environment, a portable electrochemiluminescence biosensor with the screen-printed electrode as the reaction center was developed, which possesses the characteristics of high sensitivity, small scale,

Influence of Food Matrices on the Stability and Bioavailability of Abrin
Toxins, 2018 Abrin, a highly toxic plant toxin, is a potential bioterror weapon. Work from our laboratory and others have shown that abrin is highly resistant to both thermal and pH inactivation methods.

Involvement of Prohibitin Upregulation in Abrin-Triggered Apoptosis [PDF]
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2012 Abrin (ABR), a protein purified from the seeds ofAbrus precatorius, induces apoptosis in various types of cancer cells. However, the detailed mechanism remains largely uncharacterized. By using a cDNA microarray platform, we determined that prohibitin (PHB), a tumor suppressor protein, is significantly upregulated in ABR-triggered apoptosis.
