Ricin Toxin Activates the NALP3 Inflammasome
Toxins, 2010 Ricin exhibits well characterized ribotoxic actions that lead to the inhibition of protein synthesis and the phosphorylation of stress activated protein kinases (SAPKs).

Role of the Mannose Receptor (CD206) in Innate Immunity to Ricin Toxin
Toxins, 2011 The entry of ricin toxin into macrophages and certain other cell types in the spleen and liver results in toxin-induced inflammation, tissue damage and organ failure.

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001 The plant toxin ricin binds to terminal galactose-containing cell-surface receptors. The toxin is endocytosed and transported to the Golgi apparatus. Recent evidence suggests that ricin binds to galactosylated calreticulin, which may carry the toxin from the Golgi apparatus to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
