Structural basis of tetanus toxin neutralization by native human monoclonal antibodies
Summary: Four potent native human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting distinct epitopes on tetanus toxin (TeNT) are isolated with neutralization potency ranging from approximately 17 mg to 6 mg each that are equivalent to 250 IU of human anti-TeNT ...

A genetic fusion GDNF-C fragment of tetanus toxin prolongs survival in a symptomatic mouse ALS model
Purpose: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a paralyzing disorder that kills individuals within three to five years of onset without any possibility for effective treatment. One proposed therapy has been the use of neurotrophic factors to inhibit the

Head and Neck Cancer Immunotherapy: Overcoming Limitations and Enhancing Efficacy
ICI‐included therapies are standard for R/M HNSCC patients. In particular, neoadjuvant ICI therapy shows promising clinical results even in nontreated resectable HNSCC patients. In addition, cancer vaccine, immune cell‐based therapy, immunomodulation therapy, and TME targeting therapy may combine with ICI.

The Action of Tetanus Toxin in Frogs [PDF]
SUMMARY: The development of tetanus intoxication in the frog is dependent on the environmental temperature being above about 15". The incubation period and time to death become shorter as the environmental temperature is raised. Cooling below about 15° prevents both the fixation of the toxin and its action after fixation but does not increase the speed

Bacterial Toxins, Current Perspectives
Toxins are the major pathogenicity factors produced by numerous bacteria involved in severe diseases in humans and animals. Certain pathogenic bacteria synthesize only one toxin which is responsible for all the symptoms and outcome of the disease.

High-level Expression of Tetanus Toxin Fragment C in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Fragment C is the C-terminal domain of the heavy chain of tetanus toxin that can promote the immune response against the lethal dose of this toxin. Therefore, this portion can be considered as a candidate vaccine against tetanus infection, which occurs ...

Chronic silencing of subsets of layer 5 projection neurons has distinct effects on the laminar distribution of PV interneurons and the perineuronal nets in the adult primary motor and somatosensory cortex. Abstract Neural networks are established throughout cortical development, which require the right ratios of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons ...
