The Dynamic Behavior (Effects) of Impulsive Toxicant Input on a Single-Species Population in a Small Polluted Environment [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
In this paper, we study a single-species population model with pulse toxicant input to a small polluted environment. The intrinsic rate of population is affected by environment and toxin in organisms. The toxin in organisms is influenced by toxin in environment and the food chain. A new mathematical model is derived.

Maternal IgE Influence on Fetal and Infant Health

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 331, Issue 1, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is the most recently discovered and evolved mammalian antibody type, best known for interacting with mast cells (MCs) as immune effectors. IgE‐mediated antigen sensing by MC provides protection from parasites, venomous animals, bacteria, and other insults to barrier tissues exposed to the environment.

The receptor-toxin-antibody interaction: Mathematical model and numerical simulation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
A reaction-diffusion model of receptor-toxin-antibody (RTA) interaction is studied numerically. The protective properties of an antibody against a given toxin are evaluated for a spherical cell placed into a toxin-antibody solution. The selection of parameters for numerical simulation approximately corresponds to the practically relevant values ...

Hair Cell Replacement in Adult Mouse Utricles after Targeted Ablation of Hair Cells with Diphtheria Toxin

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2012
We developed a transgenic mouse to permit conditional and selective ablation of hair cells in the adult mouse utricle by inserting the human diphtheria toxin receptor (DTR) gene into the Pou4f3 gene, which encodes a hair cell-specific transcription ...

Matrix Viscoelasticity Orchestrates Osteogenesis via Mechanotransduction Mediated Metabolic Switch in Macrophages

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 11, April 25, 2025.
Fast‐relaxation viscoelastic hydrogel triggers a metabolic shift in macrophages, favoring oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) over glycolysis via vasodilator‐stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) / hypoxia‐inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF1α) signaling meditated mechanotransdution, thereby enhancing their capacity to recruit mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and ...

A solid approach to biopharmaceutical stabilisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ensilication is a technology we developed that can physically stabilise proteins in silica without use of a pre-formed particle matrix. Stabilisation is done by tailor fitting individual proteins with a silica coat using a modified sol-gel process. Biopharmaceuticals, for example, liquid-formulated vaccines with adjuvants, have poor thermal stability ...

Staphylococcus Aureus Tames Nociceptive Neurons to Suppress Synovial Macrophage Responses for Sustained Infection in Septic Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 14, April 10, 2025.
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection induces persistent pain via toxins, leading to CGRP release from TRPV1+ nociceptive nerves. CGRP inhibits chemotactic factor release from CX3CR1+ synovial lining macrophages and suppresses their bactericidal activity. This study highlights neuroimmune interactions in chronic septic arthritis and suggests CGRP

Late Presentation of Post Diphtheritic Myocarditis in a 15-year male

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2017
A 15-year old male patient presented to us with dyspnoea for four days. He had a history of fever, pseudo-membranous tonsillitis and cervical adenopathy twenty-five days prior to the presentation.

Structural basis for lack of toxicity of the diphtheria toxin mutant CRM197

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2012
CRM197 is an enzymatically inactive and nontoxic form of diphtheria toxin that contains a single amino acid substitution (G52E). Being naturally nontoxic, CRM197 is an ideal carrier protein for conjugate vaccines against encapsulated bacteria and is ...
