Immunotoxins: The Role of the Toxin [PDF]
Immunotoxins are antibody-toxin bifunctional molecules that rely on intracellular toxin action to kill target cells. Target specificity is determined via the binding attributes of the chosen antibody. Mostly, but not exclusively, immunotoxins are purpose-

Secondary Necrosis Following Caspase‐Activation can Occur Independently of Gasdermin E
Regulated necrosis is a known direct consequence of activation of the necroptosis‐ and pyroptosis‐ pathways, but may also result from apoptosis in a process referred to as secondary necrosis.

Immunotoxins: Targeted Toxin Delivery for Cancer Therapy
Immunotoxins are proteins that consist of a protein toxin conjugated to a specific targeting moiety. The targeting moiety is usually an antibody or ligand, such as monoclonal antibody, antibody fragment, a cytokine, or a growth factor. The toxins usually

Mechanisms of Resistance to Immunotoxins Containing Pseudomonas Exotoxin A in Cancer Therapy
Immunotoxins are a class of targeted cancer therapeutics in which a toxin such as Pseudomonas exotoxin A (PE) is linked to an antibody or cytokine to direct the toxin to a target on cancer cells.

Special issue: Ribosome-inactivating proteins : commemorative issue in honor of Professor Fiorenzo Stirpe [PDF]
The family of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) groups all enzymes (EC.3.2.2.22) with a so-called RIP domain which comprises N-glycosidase activity and enables these proteins to catalytically inactivate ribosomes.[...
