Abstract excerpt
The dermatonecrotic toxin produced by Pasteurella multocida is one of the most potent mitogenic substances known for fibroblasts in vitro. Exposure to recombinant P. multocida toxin (rPMT) causes phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids, calcium mobilization, and activation of protein kinase C via a poorly characterized mechanism involving G(q/11) family heterotrimeric G proteins. To...
