Evaluation of the Epidemic Situation of Anthrax in Armenia Over the Last Decade

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 32-41, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Anthrax is a World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH)‐listed disease that must be reported upon confirmation based on the Terrestrial Animal Health Code. Anthrax poses a serious health issue for unvaccinated livestock, is a threat to humans through interaction with contaminated livestock and animal products and is endemic in ...

Anthrax toxin takes charge

The Journal of Cell Biology, 2003
Bacterial toxin proteins are generally thought to enter eukaryotic cells by passive hitchhiking, binding to a convenient receptor that is constitutively internalized by endocytosis to ensure their delivery to the cytoplasm. But on page 321, Abrami et al.

The Dynamic Behavior (Effects) of Impulsive Toxicant Input on a Single-Species Population in a Small Polluted Environment [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
In this paper, we study a single-species population model with pulse toxicant input to a small polluted environment. The intrinsic rate of population is affected by environment and toxin in organisms. The toxin in organisms is influenced by toxin in environment and the food chain. A new mathematical model is derived.

Toward Understanding the Mechanism of Client‐Selective Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Sec61 Translocon

Journal of Molecular Recognition, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT The Sec61 translocon mediates the translocation of numerous, newly synthesized precursor proteins into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum or their integration into its membrane. Recently, structural biology revealed conformations of idle or substrate‐engaged Sec61, and likewise its interactions with the accessory membrane proteins Sec62 ...

The receptor-toxin-antibody interaction: Mathematical model and numerical simulation [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
A reaction-diffusion model of receptor-toxin-antibody (RTA) interaction is studied numerically. The protective properties of an antibody against a given toxin are evaluated for a spherical cell placed into a toxin-antibody solution. The selection of parameters for numerical simulation approximately corresponds to the practically relevant values ...

Coexistence through sustainable conservation strategies for sitatunga Tragelaphus spekii in African ecosystems

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, January 2025.
Sitatunga Tragelaphus spekii is an antelope species adapted to the dense swamps and marshes of Sub‐Saharan Africa, where traditional population survey techniques have been ineffective and encountered difficulties in making estimations. The species formerly occurred alongside waterways throughout the lowland forest zone of West and central Africa ...

A pragmatic harm reduction approach to manage a large outbreak of wound botulism in people who inject drugs, Scotland 2015 [PDF]

, 2018
Background People who inject drugs (PWID) are at an increased risk of wound botulism, a potentially fatal acute paralytic illness. During the first 6 months of 2015, a large outbreak of wound botulism was confirmed among PWID in Scotland, which resulted ...

A Human/Murine Chimeric Fab Antibody Neutralizes Anthrax Lethal Toxin In Vitro

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2013
Human anthrax infection caused by exposure to Bacillus anthracis cannot always be treated by antibiotics. This is mostly because of the effect of the remaining anthrax toxin in the body.
