The light chain of tetanus toxin inhibits calcium-dependent vasopressin release from permeabilized nerve endings [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The effects of tetanus toxin and its light and heavy chain subunits on vasopressin release were investigated in digitonin-permeabilized neurosecretory nerve terminals isolated from the neural lobe of the rat pituitary gland.

Passive shoulder mobility and active shoulder external rotation recovery in upper‐trunk brachial plexus birth injuries after nerve repair

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This was a retrospective cohort study of 322 patients with upper trunk brachial plexus birth injury following nerve surgery of C5 and/or C6. We found that a substantial gap remained between passive and active shoulder external rotation in adduction, indicating that passive mobility is not the limiting factor in active external rotation recovery ...

Exploring the functional domain and the target of the tetanus toxin light chain in neurohypophysial terminals [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The tetanus toxin light chain blocks calcium induced vasopressin release from neurohypophysial nerve terminals. Here we show that histidine residue 233 within the putative zinc binding motif of the tetanus toxin light chain is essential for the ...
