Alpha-toxin induces programmed cell death of human T cells, B cells, and monocytes during USA300 infection. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 This investigation examines the influence of alpha-toxin (Hla) during USA300 infection of human leukocytes. Survival of an USA300 isogenic deletion mutant of hla (USA300Δhla) in human blood was comparable to the parental wild-type strain and ...

CO2 permeability of the rat erythrocyte membrane and its inhibition
Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2021 We have studied the CO2 permeability of the erythrocyte membrane of the rat using a mass spectrometric method that employs 18 O-labelled CO2. The method yields, in addition, the intraerythrocytic carbonic anhydrase activity and the membrane HCO3 ...

Significance of two transmembrane ion gradients for human erythrocyte volume stabilization.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Functional effectiveness of erythrocytes depends on their high deformability that allows them to pass through narrow tissue capillaries. The erythrocytes can deform easily due to discoid shape provided by the stabilization of an optimal cell volume at a ...

Fusogenic structural changes in arenavirus glycoproteins are associated with viroporin activity.
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 Many enveloped viruses enter host cells by fusing with acidic endosomes. The fusion activity of multiple viral envelope glycoproteins does not generally affect viral membrane permeability.
