Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of cinnamon oil on icaA expression and biofilm formation by Staphylococcus epidermidis.

TL;DR: Cinnamon oil showed antimicrobial activity against both planktonic and biofilm cultures of clinical S. epidermidis strains, and CLSM images indicated that cinnamon oil is able to detach and kill existing biofilms.
Journal ArticleDOI

A mutant cholera toxin B subunit that binds GM1- ganglioside but lacks immunomodulatory or toxic activity.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that GM1 binding, contrary to expectation, is not sufficient to initiate toxin action, and the engineering and crystallographic structure of a mutant cholera toxin is reported, with a His to Ala substitution in the B subunit at position 57.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective Mucosal Immunity to Ocular Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Infection in Mice by Using Escherichia coli Heat-Labile Enterotoxin B Subunit as an Adjuvant

TL;DR: The protective efficacy of the immune response induced using rEtxB as an adjuvant was assessed following ocular challenge of immunized and mock-immunized mice, and a significant reduction in the incidence of lid disease and zosteriform spread was observed in immunized animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural basis for the differential toxicity of cholera toxin and Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin. Construction of hybrid toxins identifies the A2-domain as the determinant of differential toxicity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the structural basis for the difference in toxicity between cholera toxin and E. coli heat-labile enterotoxin (Etx) by engineering a set of mutant and hybrid toxins and testing their activity in human epithelial (T84) cells.
