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

Botulinum Neurotoxin Detection Methods for Public Health Response and Surveillance
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2018 Botulism outbreak due to consumption of food contaminated with botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) is a public health emergency. The threat of bioterrorism through deliberate distribution in food sources and/or aerosolization of BoNTs raises global public ...

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.Plain Language Summary People with chronic migraine may have changes in amino‐acid metabolism, but it remains unclear which metabolic pathways are associated with the disease and early response to onabotulinumtoxinA treatment. We measured plasma amino‐acid levels in patients with chronic migraine and healthy controls and assessed changes after 1 month ...

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 662-671, September 2026.ABSTRACT The orbicularis oculi muscle (OOc) is strongly associated with facial aging as its contraction causes the formation of crow's feet. Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injection is a representative treatment targeting muscle. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the anatomical relationship between the OOc and the zygomaticus complex muscles, and ...

Botulinum Neurotoxin-Producing Bacteria. Isn’t It Time that We Called a Species a Species?
mBio, 2018 Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are produced by a diverse set of seven clostridial species, though alternate naming systems have developed over the last 100 years. Starting in the 1950s, a single-species taxonomy where any bacterium producing BoNT would be
