Staphylococcal alpha-toxin triggers the arachidonic acid cascade in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells via calcium influx, likely through toxin-created transmembrane channels.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May link alpha-toxin to calcium-dependent endothelial activation in infection models; leaves open human relevance and therapeutic targets.
