Slow Death and Key Workers: The Ordinary Crisis of Waste Work During the COVID‐19 Pandemic
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract This article examines the experiences of waste workers in Glasgow during the COVID‐19 pandemic to show how the everyday operations of the UK waste industry push bodies and infrastructures towards collapse. Drawing on interviews with waste workers, and Lauren Berlant's concepts of ‘slow death’ and the ‘crisis ordinary’, it argues that ...

Orientation of cholera toxin bound to model membranes
, 1994 The orientation of cholera toxin bound to its cell-surface receptor, ganglioside GM1, in a supporting lipid membrane was determined by electron microscopy of negatively stained toxin-lipid samples. Image analysis of two dimensional crystalline arrays has

The evidence for old age motor neuron death: A scoping review
Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 11, June 2026.We systematically evaluated the extant literature on age‐related motor neuron (MN) death in aging, focusing on studies directly assessing MNs. We show that in the spinal cord and brainstem, there is robust evidence for MN loss, particularly in the human spinal cord. In rats, MN loss was readily observed across a variety of labelling methods and regions,

Cholera : diagnosis and treatment in Haiti [PDF]
Cholera is an acute intestinal infection caused by toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O-group 1 or O-group 139. Many other serogroups of Vibrio cholerae, with or without the cholera toxin gene, can cause a cholera-like illness.

, 1990 In IPC-81 cells, the adenylyl-cyclase activation by cholera toxin produces an elevation of cAMP that causes a rapid cytolysis. A resistant clone with deficient cholera toxin-induced cyclase activity (yet sensitive to cAMP) showed a rapid decrease in the ...
