Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsVibrio cholerae O1 Strains of Different Ribotypes have Similar hlyA RFLP Patterns but Different Vacuolating AbilityJorge E. Vidal, Paula Figueroa-Arredondo, Silvia Giono-Cerezo et al.Extensive cytoplasmic vacuolation on Vero and HeLa cells in vitro by the Vibrio cholerae pore forming toxin HlyA, has been previously reported by our group. Vibrio cholerae O1 and non-O1 pathogenic strains show differences in the potential to induce vacuolation, here we study occurring variations on vacuolating cytotoxic ability, related to changes in the nucleotide sequence of the hlyA-orf. A … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,984 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHippocampal Pyramidal Cell Degeneration and Changes in Creb Protein in Datura stramonium Treated RatsPeter Etim Ekanem, Dare S. Sunday, Sunday Abba, Amanuel TesfayDatura Stramonium (DS) is a tropical shrub which is available worldwide. It has various uses and is often used to increase the intoxication of certain beverages. The seeds of this plant are very toxic but are commonly smoked in like manner as tobacco. The present study investigated the potential harmful effects of DS on pyramidal cells and CREB protein in … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2015 · 7,062 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSorbitol-Induced Diabetic-Like Retinal Lesions in Rats: Microscopic StudyGaber A. RamadanThe present study investigated the sorbitol toxicity on the retinas of normal albino rats and founded by the light microscope that intra-peritoneal injection of Sorbitol (10-mg/kg-body weight per day) for 24 weeks produced similar diabetic like retinal lesions in these rats. The retinopathic effects of sorbitol injection affect retinal microvessels, pigment epithelium, neural retina and glial cells. Cytoplasmic vacuolation of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,630 accessesView PDF Cite
