Neurolathyrism in Sub‐Saharan Africa—Assessing the Neurotoxic Risks of Lathyrus sativus Amid Drought and Food Security Challenges

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Representation of grass pea consumption in drought‐stricken sub‐Saharan Africa sustains nutrition, but excess β‐ODAP exposure due to multiple reasons triggers neurolathyrism, a progressive neurotoxic disorder. ABSTRACT Neurolathyrism is a progressive motor neuron disease due to the consumption of Lathyrus sativus (grass pea) over long periods.

Cysteine Peptidases in Antitumor Immunity: Unraveling Antigen‐Presenting Cell Regulation and Therapeutic Potential

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the central role of cysteine peptidases in modulating antigen‐presenting cell (APC) function and antitumor immune responses, highlighting their critical significance in overcoming tumor immune evasion. Current research has established that cysteine peptidase subtypes, including cathepsins B, S, L, and X, exert ...

[Poisoning by paralytic molluscan toxins in Oaxaca].

Salud publica de Mexico, 1991
Toxic Red Tides are caused by marine dinoflagellates which synthesize neurotoxins that accumulate in bivalve mollusks. Upon ingestion, these shellfish can cause paralysis and death. During the month of December, 1989, 99 cases of Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning in the areas of Salina Cruz and Huatulco, Oaxaca, were reported; three of which died.

Cervical Inlet Patches in R‐CPD: An Unrecognized Predictor of Treatment Failure

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This retrospective cohort study identified cervical inlet patches (CIP) in 19.8% of patients undergoing cricopharyngeal botulinum toxin injection for R‐CPD. CIP presence and increasing age independently predicted failure to sustain a long‐term treatment response, suggesting that CIP may be an underrecognized factor in R‐CPD treatment durability ...
