Research Abstract

1. Research for intracellular toxins (endotoxins and microcystins) :
(A) LPS (endotoxins) : LPS-induced TNF-alpha production by the murine peritoneal macrophages is dependent on protein kinase Cbeta, but the production of IL-1beta depends mainly on calmodulin.adrenocorticoides participate in LPS-induced murine thymocyte apoptosis. P.gingivalis LPS activates tyrosine kinases in LPS-nonresponsive C3H/HeJ B cells. (B) Damage of rat liver cells by microcystin is partialy dependent on the cytotoxic mediators produced by non-parenchymal liver cells.
2. Research for exotoxins :
No.167 (glutamic acid) and no.170 (arginine) amino acids from N-terminal of A subunit are essential for the cytotoxic activity of Vero toxin. Protease, furin, in target cell membrane is essential for activation of diphthelia toxin. Hemolytic toxin, TDH, of V.parahemolytics phosphorylates 25kDa protein in red blood cells after binding the receptors. The enhancer (ARFs) and suppressor (ARIs) of cholera toxin were purified from target cells. The mechnisms on penetration of ST1 toxin through inner membrane of E.coil was clarified. The receptor gene for ST toxin was transfected to COS7 cells and the products were analyzed. C.difficile produces a red blood cell agglutinin which is different from toxin A.The release of neurotransmitter by tetanus toxin depends on calmodulin. The listerolysin O-producing strains of L.monocytogenes only can induce inflamatory cytokine mRNAs in infected hosts and endow them the cellular immunity. Protease SH produced by A-group streptococci may be participated in septic shock. Super-antigens may cause scalet fever, symptomes of Yersinia and Kawasaki disease.
