Transcriptional cross-activation between toxin-antitoxin systems of Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Bacterial toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are formed by potent regulatory or suicide factors (toxins) and their short-lived inhibitors (antitoxins). Antitoxins are DNA-binding proteins and auto-repress transcription of TA operons.

THE ANTITOXIN OF TETANUS. [PDF]
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1896 Among the many principles on which are based our modern theories of the etiology and therapeutics of disease is that of the vaccinating or immunizing power of attenuated cultures of specific microorganisms. Although this principle is forecast by Jenner's discovery of the vaccine against variola, it is to the great Frenchman, Pasteur, that should be ...

ANTITOXIN AND DIPHTHERIA. [PDF]
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1897 At a meeting held here about a year ago I read a paper entitled "Diphtheria," in which the subject was treated in its entirety and some reference was made to the use of antitoxin serum. The paper which I present tonight deals chiefly with antitoxin and some reference is made to diphtheria as seems to be proper or relevant to the subject.

Toxin-Antitoxin Systems in Pathogenic Bacteria [PDF]
, 2022 Bacterial toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems, which are ubiquitously present in bacterial genomes, are not essential for normal cell proliferation. The TA systems regulate fundamental cellular processes, facilitate survival under stress conditions, have ...

STANDARDIZATION OF BOTULISM ANTITOXINS.
American Journal of Public Health, 1921 THE value of standard methods for testing and for stating the potency of diphtheria and tetanus antitoxins is universally acknowledged. Before the work at the Hygienic Laboratory was done,* establishing United States standards for these products, nothing

Clinical Recovery and Circulating Botulinum Toxin Type F in Adult Patient
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009 A 56-year-old woman in Helena, Montana, USA, who showed clinical signs of paralysis, received antitoxins to botulinum toxins A, B, and E within 24 hours; nevertheless, symptoms progressed to complete quadriplegia. On day 8, she began moving spontaneously,

Diversity of bacterial type II toxin–antitoxin systems: a comprehensive search and functional analysis of novel families [PDF]
, 2011 Type II toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems are generally composed of two genes organized in an operon, encoding a labile antitoxin and a stable toxin. They were first discovered on plasmids where they contribute to plasmid stability by a phenomenon denoted as ‘
