Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Diphtheria toxin has the properties of a lectin [PDF]

, 1978
The inhibition of protein synthesis in Chinese hamster V79 cells by diphtheria toxin is antagonized by the lectins concanavalin A, succinylated concanavalin A, and wheat germ agglutinin but not by Proteus vulgaris phytohemagglutinin or abrus agglutinin ...

Methods of control diphtheria vaccine safety

Annals of Mechnikov's Institute, 2020
Vaccination success depends not only on the timely coverage of threatened contingents, but also on the quality of vaccines. Every day, the requirements for security guarantees vaccines and their use guarantees of security increases.

Diphtheria toxin-binding glycoproteins on hamster cells: candidates for diphtheria toxin receptors [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1979
Diphtheria toxin-binding glycoproteins of high molecular weight (greater than 100,000) were identified on the surface of lymph node and thymus cells from hamsters, a diphtheria toxin-sensitive species. These diphtheria toxin-binding glycoproteins also interacted with CRM197 protein, which possesses toxin-blocking activity, but not with diphtheria ...

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To determine the clinico‐demographic profile and predictors of mortality in hospitalised children with diphtheria. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 202 children aged 5–16 years diagnosed with diphtheria per WHO criteria at Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar, from January 2023 to December 2024. Data on demographics, vaccination

Identification of a Human Monoclonal Antibody to Replace Equine Diphtheria Anti-toxin for the Treatment of Diphtheria

, 2013
Diphtheria anti-toxin (DAT) has been used to treat Corynebacterium diphtheriae infection for over one hundred years. While the global incidence of diphtheria has declined in the 20th century, the disease remains endemic in many parts of the world and ...

The Action of Diphtheria Toxin on Mice [PDF]

Journal of Hygiene, 1922
1. For the particular toxin tested, the intravenous m.l.d. for mice was 60 times and the intramuscular m.l.d. for mice 100 times, the guinea-pig sub cutaneous m.l.d.2. Antitoxin has the same neutralising power for toxin in mice as in guinea-pigs.

New biosensors and transgenic mice for multiplex cGMP imaging

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a versatile second messenger that is important for human (patho‐)physiology and pharmacotherapy. Live‐cell imaging of cGMP with biosensors allows to elucidate its spatiotemporal dynamics in real time under close‐to‐native conditions. However, to monitor two separate cGMP pools or cGMP/cAMP

Sequence Analysis of Toxin Gene–Bearing Corynebacterium diphtheriae Strains, Australia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
By conducting a molecular characterization of Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains in Australia, we identified novel sequences, nonfunctional toxin genes, and 5 recent cases of toxigenic cutaneous diphtheria.

Prevention of microglial activation and postoperative cognitive deficits by positive allosteric modulation of α5‐GABAA receptors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Long‐lasting cognitive deficits after surgery in aged individuals, referred to as perioperative neurocognitive disorder (NCD), are a significant public health concern. Such postoperative cognitive deficits are dependent on the presence of microglia in the brain, which, when activated, trigger neuroinflammation.
