👉 The term "lienotoxin" is a medical term used to describe a type of protein that causes inflammation and damage in the body. It was first described by Louis Pasteur in 1876, who discovered that this protein could cause tissue damage when it entered the bloodstream. The process of transporting this protein from one part of the body to another involves several steps, including the transport of the protein through the blood stream and the activation of enzymes that break down the protein into its components.
