Verotoxin Receptor-Based Pathology and Therapies

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Verotoxin, VT (aka Shiga toxin,Stx) is produced by enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) and is the key pathogenic factor in EHEC-induced hemolytic uremic syndrome (eHUS-hemolytic anemia/thrombocytopenia/glomerular infarct) which can follow gastrointestinal ...

Distribution of Gb3 Immunoreactivity in the Mouse Central Nervous System

open access: yesToxins, 2010
We have shown previously that neurons in the mouse spinal cord express Gb3. We show in this article that distribution of anti-Gb3-Ab reactivity occurs in many different types of neurons of different areas of the central nervous system (CNS).

Gb3 trisaccharide-bearing exosomes as a novel neutralizer for Shiga toxin type 1

open access: yesbioRxiv
Shiga toxin types 1 (Stx1) and 2 (Stx2), produced by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and Shigella dysenteriae, are key virulence factors responsible for severe foodborne diseases, such as hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome ...

Gb3‐cSrc complex in glycosphingolipid‐enriched microdomains contributes to the expression of p53 mutant protein and cancer drug resistance via β‐catenin–activated RNA methylation

open access: yesFASEB bioAdvances, 2020
Glucosylceramide synthase (GCS) is a key enzyme catalyzing ceramide glycosylation to generate glucosylceramide (GlcCer), which in turn serves as the precursor for cells to produce glycosphingolipids (GSLs).

Globotriaosylsphingosine accumulation and not alpha-galactosidase-A deficiency causes endothelial dysfunction in Fabry disease.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundFabry disease (FD) is caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) resulting in the accumulation of globotriaosylsphingosine (Gb3) in a variety of tissues.

The Gb3-enriched CD59/flotillin plasma membrane domain regulates host cell invasion by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is responsible for a high number of acute and chronic hospital-acquired infections. As it develops more and more resistances against existing antibiotics, P.

Identification and characterization of the human Gb3/CD77 synthase gene promoter [PDF]

open access: yesGlycobiology, 2008
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is triggered by verotoxin (VT) produced by the Escherichia coli O157 strain. Several studies have demonstrated that VT induces endothelial cell (EC) death via the VT receptor globotriaosylceramide (Gb3/CD77) leading to this symptom. Inflammatory mediators which are produced as a result of E. coli O157 infection, increase

A CRISPR Screen Identifies LAPTM4A and TM9SF Proteins as Glycolipid-Regulating Factors

open access: yesiScience, 2019
Summary: Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are produced by various GSL-synthesizing enzymes, but post-translational regulation of these enzymes is incompletely understood.

Modeling Downside Risks for China's Security Markets: Does Greenness Make Bonds a Safer Haven?

open access: yesScottish Journal of Political Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Motivated by its current defective governance regime and institutional characteristics of green finance, this study models Value‐at‐Risk and Expected Shortfall of security markets for China. We extend Patton et al.'s (2019) models by introducing four exogenous risk factors including China's climate policy uncertainty (CCPU).

Cellular Lyso-Gb3 Is a Biomarker for Mucolipidosis II

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
Lysosomal storage diseases are caused by defective lysosomal function, such as impaired lysosomal enzyme activities, which include more than 70 different diseases. Although biomarkers and therapies have been developed to date for some of them, many others remain challenging to diagnose and treat.
