Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

Structure-function study of maize ribosome-inactivating protein: implications for the internal inactivation region and the sole glutamate in the active site [PDF]

, 2007
Maize ribosome-inactivating protein is classified as a class III or an atypical RNA N-glycosidase. It is synthesized as an inactive precursor with a 25-amino acid internal inactivation region, which is removed in the active form.

Inherited non‐syndromic polydactyly in a Berber and Arabian‐Berber horse family

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 57, Issue 6, Page 1511-1519, November 2025.
Abstract Background Supernumerary digits, or polydactyly, have been described in various species including humans, wild and domestic animals. In horses, it represents the most common congenital limb malformation, which has only been described in isolated cases or nuclear families. Molecular aetiology has not been reported.

Fatty acids affect proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in dairy cows

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
In vitro studies were performed to assess the effects of bovine plasma fatty acids on proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). PBMC from 6 Holstein heifers were cultured in media containing oleic (OA), palmitic (PA), stearic (SA ...

Poliovirus-mediated entry of pokeweed antiviral protein [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1990
Infection of HeLa cells with poliovirus results in cell permeabilization to pokeweed antiviral protein. Cell permeabilization was dependent on the integrity of virus capsid proteins and directly proportional to the multiplicity of infection. This study demonstrates that virus adsorption is sufficient for the entry of pokeweed antiviral protein into ...

Pokeweed antiviral protein increases HIV-1 particle infectivity by activating the cellular mitogen activated protein kinase pathway. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP) is a plant-derived N-glycosidase that exhibits antiviral activity against several viruses. The enzyme removes purine bases from the messenger RNAs of the retroviruses Human immunodeficiency virus-1 and Human T-cell ...
