Dyngo-4a also interfered with BoNT/A-Hc internalization into motor nerve terminals. Furthermore, Dyngo-4a afforded protection against BoNT/A-induced paralysis at the rat hemidiaphragm. A significant delay of >30% in the onset of botulism was observed in mice injected with Dyngo-4a. Dynamin inhibition therefore provides a therapeutic avenue for the treatment of botulism and other diseases caused by pathogens sharing dynamin-dependent uptake mechanisms.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:01:38 AEDT ]]> Targeting membrane trafficking in infection prophylaxis: dynamin inhibitors https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20084 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:00:05 AEDT ]]>
