Tetanus Toxin
The clostridial neurotoxins (CNTs) comprise tetanus toxin (TT) and botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT [BT]) serotypes (A to G and X) and several recently identified CNT-like proteins, including BT/En and the mosquito BoNT-like toxin Pmp1.

Modulation of the immune response by the Pseudomonas aeruginosa type-III secretion system
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause critical cellular damage and subvert the immune response to promote its survival. Among the numerous virulence factors of P.

Abstract This narrative review summarizes the collective knowledge on periodontal microbiology, through a historical timeline that highlights the European contribution in the global field. The etiological concepts on periodontal disease culminate to the ecological plaque hypothesis and its dysbiosis‐centered interpretation.

Advanced Proteomics as a Powerful Tool for Studying Toxins of Human Bacterial Pathogens
Exotoxins contribute to the infectious processes of many bacterial pathogens, mainly by causing host tissue damages. The production of exotoxins varies according to the bacterial species.

Molecular Mechanisms of Mast Cell Activation by Cholesterol-Dependent Cytolysins
Mast cells are potent immune sensors of the tissue microenvironment. Within seconds of activation, they release various preformed biologically active products and initiate the process of de novo synthesis of cytokines, chemokines, and other inflammatory ...

Bacterial Exotoxins: General Characteristics and Mode of Action [PDF]
The idea of the harmful effects of pathogenic bacteria via toxin production has existed since ancient times. In 1872, Klebs hypothesized that "sepsins" were responsible for the formation of toxins produced by staphylococci, although he was unable to ...
