p97 Is in a Complex with Cholera Toxin and Influences the Transport of Cholera Toxin and Related Toxins to the Cytoplasm [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2005 Certain protein toxins, including cholera toxin, ricin, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A, are transported to the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum where they retro-translocate across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane to enter the cytoplasm.

Chloroquine inhibition of cholera toxin [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1990 Cholera toxin (CT) stimulated adenylate cyclase and a phospholipase which elevated levels of 3.5‐cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and arachidonic acid (AA). The AA was quickly converted to prostaglandins (PGs) via the cyclo‐oxygenase pathway. Chloroquine exerted minimal inhibition of cAMP levels in CT‐treated cells, although CT‐induced release of [

Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine, 2017 Cholera is a well-known gastrointestinal infection. The cholera toxin is an important pathological substance in pathogenesis of cholera diarrhea. Cholera toxin is composed of catalytic A1 subunit, an A2 linker, and a homopentameric cell-binding B subunit.

Bioscience Reports, 1977 Summary1. Death in several infectious diseases is caused by protein toxins secreted by invading bacteria. Cholera toxin is a simple protein secreted by Vibrio cholerae colonizing the gut; it is responsible for the massive diarrhoea that is cholera.2. The primary action of cholera toxin is an activation of adenylate cyclase, an enzyme found on the inner

Impact of solar irradiation on cholera toxin secretion by different strains of Vibrio cholerae
South African Journal of Science, 2013 Cholera toxin is the aetiological agent of cholera – a deadly waterborne disease acquired through the consumption of untreated water contaminated with CTXФ bacteriophage harbouring strains of V. cholerae.

The arteriolar vasodilatation model of vibrio cholerae induced diarrhoeal disease [PDF]
, 2018 Secretory diarrhoeal disease caused by enterotoxins produced by pathogenic bacteria is characterised by severe fluid loss into the intestine. A prevalent explanation for such high rates of loss, such as occur in episodes of cholera, is that intestinal ...

Neutralization of cholera toxin by Rosaceae family plant extracts
BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2019 Background Cholera is one of the most deadly diarrheal diseases that require new treatments. We investigated the neutralization of cholera toxin by five plant extracts obtained from the Rosaceae family that have been traditionally used in Poland to treat

High-Resolution Crystal Structures Elucidate the Molecular Basis of Cholera Blood Group Dependence. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2016 Cholera is the prime example of blood-group-dependent diseases, with individuals of blood group O experiencing the most severe symptoms. The cholera toxin is the main suspect to cause this relationship. We report the high-resolution crystal structures (1.
