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 [

CTBPro: A Next‐Generation Cholera Toxin Subunit B‐Based Neuroanatomical Tracer With Superior Brightness, Stability, and Sensitivity for Enhanced Neural Circuit Mapping

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CTBPro is a next‐generation cholera toxin B–based tracer engineered by fusing CTB to the ultra‐stable fluorescent protein mBaojin. Exhibiting markedly enhanced molar brightness, CTBPro enables high‐fidelity neuronal labeling across multiple administration routes.

Traction Force Microscopy for Viscoelastic Substrates: A Semi‐Analytical Method

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A semi‐analytical viscoelastic traction force microscopy framework is introduced for quantifying time‐resolved cell tractions on flat finite‐thickness substrates. The method generalizes elastic traction force microscopy to Generalized Maxwell materials, identifies when elastic approximations remain valid and, when they do not, shows that inferred ...

Production of Chicken Egg Yolk Antibody (IgY) Against Recombinant Cholera Toxin B Subunit and Evaluation of Its Prophylaxis Potency in Mice [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Immunology, 2018
Background: Cholera toxin (CT), responsible for the harmful effects of cholera infection, is made up of one A subunit (enzymatic), and five B subunits (cell binding). The release of cholera toxin is the main reason for the debilitating loss of intestinal

Membrane Fusion‐Mediated Cytosolic Delivery of Threose Nucleic Acids via Homotypic Nanoparticles Overcomes Drug Resistance in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a biomimetic “nanofusion” platform that integrates the biostability of threose nucleic acids (TNA) with homotypic cell‐membrane cloaking to combat drug‐resistant TNBC. By leveraging a non‐canonical membrane‐fusion pathway for direct cytosolic delivery, the platform bypasses endosomal sequestration. To achieve potent AKT2 silencing

Histidine Supplementation Stabilizes Hearing and Vision and Improves Growth in HARS1‐Related Autosomal Recessive Disorder Associated With Usher‐Like Symptoms

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive HARS1‐related disorder (originally described as Usher syndrome type 3B) caused by a homozygous Y454S variant in the histidyl‐tRNA synthetase gene (HARS1) is characterized by progressive sensorineural hearing and vision loss and respiratory deterioration with risk for sudden death following febrile illnesses.

Transient Facial Nerve Paralysis (Bell's Palsy) following Intranasal Delivery of a Genetically Detoxified Mutant of Escherichia coli Heat Labile Toxin.

, 2009
BACKGROUND: An association was previously established between facial nerve paralysis (Bell's palsy) and intranasal administration of an inactivated influenza virosome vaccine containing an enzymatically active Escherichia coli Heat Labile Toxin (LT ...

Evaluation of fucosylated receptors for Cholera toxin in the human small intestine [PDF]

, 2019
Cholera toxin (CT) produced by Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent for the diarrheal disease cholera. Cholera is yearly afflicting millions and is estimated to kill over 100 000 people every year.

Orally delivered toxin–binding protein protects against diarrhoea in a murine cholera model

Nature Communications
The ongoing seventh cholera pandemic, which began in 1961, poses an escalating threat to public health. There is a need for new cholera control measures, particularly ones that can be produced at low cost, for the one billion people living in cholera ...
