Isolation of a human-like antibody fragment (scFv) that neutralizes ricin biological activity

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2009
Background Ricin is a lethal toxin that inhibits protein synthesis. It is easily extracted from a ubiquitously grown plant, Ricinus communis, and thus readily available for use as a bioweapon (BW). Anti-ricin antibodies provide the only known therapeutic

Myosin VIIA is required for aminoglycoside accumulation in cochlear hair cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Myosin VIIA is expressed by sensory hair cells and has a primary structure predicting a role in membrane trafficking and turnover, processes that may underlie the susceptibility of hair cells to aminoglycoside antibiotics. [3H]Gentamicin accumulation and

Impact of Sowing Dates and Nitrogen Levels on the Phenolic Profile, Antioxidant, and Enzyme Inhibitory Activities of Ricinus communis L. Roots

open access: yesJournal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
A wide range of biological effects, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti‐inflammatory, and antiproliferative activities, have been attributed to phenolic compounds, a group of bioactive molecules naturally occurring in plant tissues and increasingly valued for their industrial relevance. Notably, the present study demonstrates that sowing date is

Pregnancy Outcomes in Rats Treated With 70% Alcoholic Rhamnus prinoides Leaf Extract: Evidence From a Teratogenicity Study

open access: yesJournal of Toxicology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Rhamnus prinoides is widely used to produce traditional beverages consumed by pregnant women and for the treatment of various diseases. Scientific evidence regarding the safety profile, especially during pregnancy, of R. prinoides is limited. Thus, this study investigated the toxic effect of R. prinoides on pregnancy outcomes.
