LDLR, LRP1, and Megalin redundantly participate in the uptake of Clostridium novyi alpha-toxin

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Clostridium novyi alpha-toxin (Tcnα) also uses LRP1 and Megalin as cellular entry receptors besides LDLR, and this might be a response to cell-type dependent receptor availability for the exotoxin.

Pseudomonas exotoxin: chimeric toxins

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1989
Pseudomonas exotoxin binds to and enters cells by receptor-mediated endocytosis. Within the cell it requires exposure to low pH to enable it to translocate to the cell cytoplasm where it inhibits protein synthesis by ADP-ribosylating elongation factor 2.

Diphtheria Vaccination Coverage and Correlation With Multidimensional Poverty Among Children in Nigeria

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Diphtheria vaccination coverage among Nigerian children remains suboptimal (56%). Coverage is significantly lower in Northern states and inversely correlated with multidimensional poverty. Addressing poverty‐related deprivations is essential to improving immunization equity and curbing recurrent diphtheria outbreaks.
