The Bacillus cereus spoIIS programmed cell death system

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Programmed cell death in bacteria is generally associated with two¬ component toxin antitoxin systems. The SpoIIS toxin-antitoxin system, consisting of a membrane bound SpoIISA toxin and a small, cytosolic antitoxin SpoIISB, was originally identified in ...

Hepatitis B Virus, Pneumococcal, Diphtheria, and Tetanus Vaccination Responses in Compensated Cirrhosis

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Cirrhosis favours infections that can lead to liver decompensation and death. Some of these infections can be prevented by vaccination. This study aimed to evaluate the immune response after HBV, pneumococcal, diphtheria, and tetanus vaccination in cirrhotic patients.

Structural insights into chaperone addiction of toxin-antitoxin systems

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
SecB homologs can be associated with stress-responsive type II toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems and form tripartite toxin-antitoxin-chaperone systems (TAC).

Mechanisms for Differential Protein Production in Toxin–Antitoxin Systems

open access: yesToxins, 2017
Toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems are key regulators of bacterial persistence, a multidrug-tolerant state found in bacterial species that is a major contributing factor to the growing human health crisis of antibiotic resistance. Type II TA systems consist of

Viable but Nonculturable State, a Survival Strategy for Salmonella in Aquatic Environments

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 183-202, May 2026.
Transition of Salmonella from a culturable state to a viable but nonculturable state under various environmental stresses and current methods for detecting viable Salmonella in environmental samples. ABSTRACT In the relentless battle for survival, Salmonella has evolved mechanisms to withstand harsh conditions such as extreme temperatures, fluctuating ...

Single Tri-Epitopic Antibodies (TeAbs) to Botulinum Neurotoxin Serotypes B, E, and F Recapitulate the Full Potency of a Combination of Three Monoclonal Antibodies in Toxin Neutralization

open access: yesToxins
Recombinant monoclonal antibody (mAb) botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) antitoxins, consisting of three mAbs that bind non-overlapping epitopes, are highly potent. However, the three-mAb mixtures pose unique development and manufacturing challenges.

Wound botulism caused by Clostridium subterminale after a heroin injection

open access: yesInfectious Disease Reports, 2018
Botulism is caused by toxin production from many species of Clostridium, most commonly Clostridium botulinum as well as C. baratii and C. butyricum. Development of wound botulism is associated with injection drug users but has also been described in ...

Geometric Properties of Isostables and Basins of Attraction of Monotone Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we study geometric properties of basins of attraction of monotone systems. Our results are based on a combination of monotone systems theory and spectral operator theory.
