TM9SF4 acts as a receptor mediating Glaesserella parasuis cytolethal distending toxin–induced cytotoxicity in PK15 cells [PDF]
BackgroundCytolethal Distending Toxin (CDT) is the only exotoxin that Glaesserella parasuis (G. parasuis) can secrete. G. parasuis CDT (GpCDT) triggers DNA damage responses, leading to irreversible cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, playing an important ...

Rab4b Promotes Cytolethal Distending Toxin from Glaesserella parasuis-Induced Cytotoxicity in PK-15 Cells [PDF]
Glaesserella parasuis cytolethal distending toxin (GpCDT) can induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Our laboratory’s previous work demonstrated that GTPase 4b (Rab4b) is a key host protein implicated in GpCDT-induced cytotoxicity.

The Cell-Cycle Regulatory Protein p21CIP1/WAF1 Is Required for Cytolethal Distending Toxin (Cdt)-Induced Apoptosis [PDF]
The Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) induces lymphocytes to undergo cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis; toxicity is dependent upon the active Cdt subunit, CdtB.

Uptake and Processing of the Cytolethal Distending Toxin by Mammalian Cells
The cytolethal distending toxin (Cdt) is a heterotrimeric holotoxin produced by a diverse group of Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria. The Cdts expressed by the members of this group comprise a subclass of the AB toxin superfamily.

Coalescence of RAGE in Lipid Rafts in Response to Cytolethal Distending Toxin-Induced Inflammation [PDF]
The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) interacts with various molecules in the cell membrane to induce an inflammatory response. The cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) produced by Campylobacter jejuni contains three subunits: CdtA, CdtB ...
