Human Mycotoxin Biomonitoring: Conclusive remarks on direct or indirect assessment of urinary deoxynivalenol [PDF]
Deoxynivalenol is one of the most ubiquitous mycotoxins in the Western diet through its presence in cereals and cereal products. A vast amount of studies indicate the worrying level of exposure to this toxin, while even high percentages of the population

Non‐targeted Effects of a Targeted Toxin
Saporin (SAP) alone or conjugated either with stabilized substance P (SSP‐SAP) or with an antibody to dopamine β‐hydroxylase (anti‐DBH‐SAP) leads to attenuation of arterial baroreflexes when injected bilaterally into the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) of rats.

Outcomes of Live Virus Vaccination in Patients With Vascular Anomalies Being Treated With Sirolimus
ABSTRACT Background Live vaccination in patients with vascular anomalies (VA) receiving sirolimus remains controversial due to immunosuppressive effects and theoretical risks. Procedure This single‐center retrospective study included patients with VA less than 4 years old at the start of sirolimus therapy who were incompletely vaccinated.

Mitochondria as a Source and a Target for Uremic Toxins [PDF]
Elucidation of molecular and cellular mechanisms of the uremic syndrome is a very challenging task. More than 130 substances are now considered to be “uremic toxins” and represent a very diverse group of molecules. The toxicity of these molecules affects many cellular processes, and expectably, some of them are able to disrupt mitochondrial functioning.

Structural insights into Clostridium perfringens delta toxin pore formation [PDF]
Clostridium perfringens Delta toxin is one of the three hemolysin-like proteins produced by C. perfringens type C and possibly type B strains. One of the others, NetB, has been shown to be the major cause of Avian Nectrotic Enteritis, which following the

Clostridial binary toxins: iota and C2 family portraits
There are many pathogenic Clostridium species with diverse virulence factors that include protein toxins. Some of these bacteria, such as C. botulinum, C. difficile, C. perfringens and C. spiroforme, cause enteric problems in animals as well as humans.

Gut-Derived Protein-Bound Uremic Toxins
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) afflicts more than 500 million people worldwide and is one of the fastest growing global causes of mortality. When glomerular filtration rate begins to fall, uremic toxins accumulate in the serum and significantly increase ...

The role of CDC48 in the retro-translocation of non-ubiquitinated toxin substrates in plant cells [PDF]
When the catalytic A subunits of the castor bean toxins ricin and Ricinus communis agglutinin (denoted as RTA and RCA A, respectively) are delivered into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of tobacco protoplasts, they become substrates for ER ...

Target-Driven Evolution of Scorpion Toxins [PDF]
AbstractIt is long known that peptide neurotoxins derived from a diversity of venomous animals evolve by positive selection following gene duplication, yet a force that drives their adaptive evolution remains a mystery. By using maximum-likelihood models of codon substitution, we analyzed molecular adaptation in scorpion sodium channel toxins from a ...
