Plant-Derived Type I Ribosome Inactivating Protein-Based Targeted Toxins: A Review of the Clinical Experience

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Targeted toxins (TT) for cancer treatment are a class of hybrid biologic comprised of a targeting domain coupled chemically or genetically to a proteinaceous toxin payload.

Plant toxins.

Microbiological sciences, 1991
Many plants produce toxic proteins capable of inactivating eukaryotic ribosomes and thereby arresting protein synthesis. In certain plants the gene for a ribosome-inactivating protein has fused with a gene encoding an independent sugar-binding polypeptide to generate heterodimeric proteins which are among the most potent cytotoxins known.

Natural Toxins in Plant Foods

Nutrition and Health, 1984
Certain plants – notably soya bean and cassava – contain substances which can produce adverse physiological effects in human beings. People have in some instances learnt to deal with these effects by cooking and other forms of preparation.

Reassessment of Plant Wilt Toxins

Annual Review of Phytopathology, 1989
Wilt symptoms are unmistakable. The petioles of affected plants droop and leaves enfold. Sometimes stems, if not too woody, will become like rubber. These are the classic symptoms. Plant physiologists understand the wilting symptom in simple terms. When the water potential of the environment in which cells reside, i.e. the wall matrix and intercellular

General Mechanisms of Plant Defense and Plant Toxins

2016
Long before the appearance of flowering plants, early plants were infected by pathogenic microorganisms and challenged by herbivorous animals. Consequently, plants and animals evolved defenses and counter-defenses from the very beginning. Therefore, to cope with a huge diversity of unfavorable biotic conditions, plants developed several different ...

Metals as Toxins in Plants

Journal of Toxicology: Toxin Reviews, 1994
AbstractAccumulating toxic substances from the environment and incorporating them into body tissues is a familiar strategy for preventing predation in insects such as the Monarch butterfly. This review explores the possibility that certain plant species, known as hyperaccumulators, employ the same strategy when they accumulate high levels of metals ...
