Some Examples of Bacterial Toxins as Tools [PDF]
ToxinsPathogenic bacteria produce diverse protein toxins to disturb the host’s defenses. This includes the opening of epithelial barriers to establish bacterial growth in deeper tissues of the host and to modulate immune cell functions.

Bacterial Toxins: Friends or Foes?
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999 Many emerging and reemerging bacterial pathogens synthesize toxins that serve as primary virulence factors. We highlight seven bacterial toxins produced by well-established or newly emergent pathogenic microbes.

The bacterial toxin toolkit [PDF]
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2001 Pathogenic bacteria and higher eukaryotes have spent a long time together, leading to a precise understanding of one another's way of functioning. Through rapid evolution, bacteria have engineered increasingly sophisticated weapons to hit exactly where it hurts, interfering with fundamental host functions.

The Pathogenetic Effect of Natural and Bacterial Toxins on Atopic Dermatitis. [PDF]
Toxins (Basel), 2016 Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common allergic skin disease that is associated with chronic, recurrent eczematous and pruritic lesions at the flexural folds caused by interacting factors related to environmental and immune system changes.

Channel-Forming Bacterial Toxins in Biosensing and Macromolecule Delivery
Toxins, 2014 To intoxicate cells, pore-forming bacterial toxins are evolved to allow for the transmembrane traffic of different substrates, ranging from small inorganic ions to cell-specific polypeptides. Recent developments in single-channel electrical recordings,
