Ca2+-Stimulated Catecholamine Release from alpha-Toxin Permeabilized PC12 Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Two possible cellular pathways of catecholamines from the chromaffin vesicles of PC 12 cells to the surrounding medium are explored in this study. The direct one circumventing the cytoplasm can be activated in a-toxin-permeabilized cells with micromolar ...

Vibrio cholerae Biofilms and Cholera Pathogenesis

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2016
Vibrio cholerae can switch between motile and biofilm lifestyles. The last decades have been marked by a remarkable increase in our knowledge of the structure, regulation, and function of biofilms formed under laboratory conditions.

Passive Oral Immunization by Egg Yolk Immunoglobulin (IgY) to Vibrio cholerae Effectively Prevents Cholera [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In an attempt to prepare egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) to treat and prevent cholera, hens were immunized by a mixture of heat- or formalin-killed Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 organisms, or by the recombinant cholera toxin B subunit (CTB).

Transforming district health systems into learning health systems: An improved strategy from the District.Team experience in Benin and Guinea

open access: yesLearning Health Systems, EarlyView.
Abstract District Health Systems (DHS) are essential for delivering healthcare services, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries. However, they often struggle with inefficiencies, inadequate data utilization, and limited learning capacity. Transforming DHS into Learning Health Systems (LHS) offers a strategic pathway to strengthening health ...

Photoaffinity labeling coupled to MS to identify peptide biological partners: Secondary reactions, for better or for worse?

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Affinity photolabeling is a smart method to study noncovalent and transient interactions and provide a submolecular picture of the contacts between interacting partners. In this review, we will focus on the identification of peptide partners using photoaffinity labeling coupled to mass spectrometry in different contexts such as in vitro with a
