Botulinum Neurotoxin Serotypes Detected by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy
Toxins, 2015 Botulinum neurotoxin is one of the deadliest biological toxins known to mankind and is able to cause the debilitating disease botulism. The rapid detection of the different serotypes of botulinum neurotoxin is essential for both diagnosis of botulism and

The binding of botulinum neurotoxins to different peripheral neurons [PDF]
, 2017 Botulinum neurotoxins are the most potent toxins known. The double receptor binding modality represents one of the most significant properties of botulinum neurotoxins and largely accounts for their incredible potency and lethality.

Release of vasopressin from isolated permeabilized neurosecretory nerve terminals is blocked by the light chain of botulinum A toxin [PDF]
, 1990 The intracellular action on exocytosis of botulinim A toxin and constituent chains was studied using permeabilized isolated nerve endings from the rat neural lobe. The release of the neuropeptide vasopressin was measured by radioimmunoassay.

Clostridial C3 Toxins Enter and Intoxicate Human Dendritic Cells
Toxins, 2020 C3 protein toxins produced by Clostridium (C.) botulinum and C. limosum are mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases, which specifically modify the GTPases Rho A/B/C in the cytosol of monocytic cells, thereby inhibiting Rho-mediated signal transduction in monocytes,

Неврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика, 2022 Currently, eight natural serotypes of botulinum neurotoxin (BNT-A-G, -X) are known. The mechanism of action of all BNT serotypes is presynaptic blockade of SNARE transport proteins (Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor [NSF] Attachment Protein ...

A novel strain of Clostridium botulinum that produces type B and type H botulinum toxins.
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014 BACKGROUND Clostridium botulinum strain IBCA10-7060, isolated from a patient with infant botulism, produced botulinum neurotoxin type B (BoNT/B) and another BoNT that, by use of the standard mouse bioassay, could not be neutralized by any of the Centers ...

Clostridium botulinum Type E Toxins Bind to Caco-2 Cells by a Different Mechanism from That of Type A Toxins [PDF]
, 2012 Cultured Clostridium botulinum strains produce progenitor toxins designated as 12S, 16S, and 19S toxins. The 12S toxin consists of a neurotoxin (NTX, 7S) and a non-toxic non-hemagglutinin (NTNH).

Cost minimization analysis of BoNT-As in the treatment of upper limb spasticity and cervical dystonia [PDF]
, 2016 Botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) injections are recommended for the management of upper limb spasticity (ULS) and cervical dystonia (CD). The main aim of this cost minimization analysis (CMA) was to compare the annual cost per patient for three BoNT-As ...
