Identification of other Cellular Receptors for Edema Factor of Bacillus anthracis by Independent Inhibition of Protective Antigen Evidenced by Inhibition of Embryo Growth and Angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Razi Institute, 2021
Edema factor (EF) is one of the major secretory proteins of anthrax bacteria along with protective antigen (PA) and lethal factor (LF). Edema factor is a calmodulin-and calcium-dependent adenylate cyclase that increases intracellular levels of cAMP ...

Early Circulating Edema Factor in Inhalational Anthrax Infection: Does It Matter? [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Anthrax toxins are critical virulence factors of Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus cereus strains that cause anthrax-like disease, composed of a common binding factor, the protective antigen (PA), and two enzymatic proteins, lethal factor (LF) and edema ...

Diminished but Not Abolished Effect of Two His351 Mutants of Anthrax Edema Factor in a Murine Model [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Edema toxin (ET), which is composed of a potent adenylate cyclase (AC), edema factor (EF), and protective antigen (PA), is one of the major toxicity factors of Bacillus anthracis.

The Value of Anlotinib in the Treatment of Intractable Brain Edema: Two Case Reports

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
About 20-30 percent of patients with cancer, such as non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, melanoma and renal cell carcinoma, will develop brain metastases (BM). Primary and secondary brain tumors are often accompanied by peritumoral edema.

Passive Immunotherapy Protects against Enteric Invasion and Lethal Sepsis in a Murine Model of Gastrointestinal Anthrax

open access: yesToxins, 2015
The principal portal for anthrax infection in natural animal outbreaks is the digestive tract. Enteric exposure to anthrax, which is difficult to detect or prevent in a timely manner, could be exploited as an act of terror through contamination of human ...
