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
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.

Insights into the mechanism of cell death induced by saporin delivered into cancer cells by an antibody fusion protein targeting the transferrin receptor 1 [PDF]
We previously developed an antibody-avidin fusion protein (ch128.1Av) that targets the human transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) and exhibits direct cytotoxicity against malignant B cells in an iron-dependent manner. ch128.1Av is also a delivery system and its

Most poisonous plants and their secondary metabolites [PDF]
U radu sam obradila osnovne značajke i sekundarne metabolite nekih od biljaka koje se nalaze na popisu najotrovnijih. Ono što ih čini takvima su upravo ti sintetizirani organski spojevi, a kako se njihovom obradom može smanjiti toksičnost i istaknuti ...

Effect of a nematicidal Bacillus thuringiensis strain on free- living nematodes : 3. Characterization of the intoxication process [PDF]
La toxicité de #Bacillus thuringiensis$ est fonction de la température. L'incubation de #Caenorhabditis elegans$ avec des souches de #B. thuringiensis$ à 16, 20 et 25°C montre que la toxicité décroît en même temps que la température.

Dianthin and Its Potential in Targeted Tumor Therapies [PDF]
Dianthin enzymes belong to ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) of type 1, i.e., they only consist of a catalytic domain and do not have a cell binding moiety.

Lectin domains at the frontiers of plant defense [PDF]
Plants are under constant attack from pathogens and herbivorous insects. To protect and defend themselves, plants evolved a multi-layered surveillance system, known as the innate immune system.

Influence of Food Matrices on the Stability and Bioavailability of Abrin
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.
