Effect of SARS-CoV-2 Infection and BNT162b2 Vaccination on the mRNA Expression of Genes Associated with Angiogenesis.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), discovered in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, caused the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Due to the rate of spread of this virus, the World Health Organization, in March 2020, recognised COVID-19 as a worldwide pandemic. The disease is multisystemic with varying degrees of severity.

DNA Damage Induced by T-2 Mycotoxin in Human Skin Fibroblast Cell Line-Hs68.

T-2 mycotoxin is the most potent representative of the trichothecene group A and is produced by various species, including , , and . T-2 toxin has been reported to have toxic effects on various tissues and organs, and humans and animals alike suffer a variety of pathological conditions after consumption of mycotoxin-contaminated food. The T-2 toxin's unique feature is dermal toxicity, characterized by skin inflammation.

Mitochondrial Damage Induced by T-2 Mycotoxin on Human Skin-Fibroblast Hs68 Cell Line.

T-2 toxin is produced by different species and belongs to the group of type A trichothecene mycotoxins. T-2 toxin contaminates various grains, such as wheat, barley, maize, or rice, thus posing a risk to human and animal health. The toxin has toxicological effects on human and animal digestive, immune, nervous and reproductive systems.

Healthcare Waste-A Serious Problem for Global Health.

Healthcare waste (HCW) is generated in different healthcare facilities (HCFs), such as hospitals, laboratories, veterinary clinics, research centres and nursing homes. It has been assessed that the majority of medical waste does not pose a risk to humans. It is estimated that 15% of the total amount of produced HCW is hazardous and can be infectious, toxic or radioactive.

Immunosensors-The Future of Pathogen Real-Time Detection.

Pathogens and their toxins can cause various diseases of different severity. Some of them may be fatal, and therefore early diagnosis and suitable treatment is essential. There are numerous available methods used for their rapid screening.

Direct T-2 Toxicity on Human Skin-Fibroblast Hs68 Cell Line-In Vitro Study.

T-2 toxin is produced by different species, and it can infect crops such as wheat, barley, and corn. It is known that the T-2 toxin induces various forms of toxicity such as hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and neurotoxicity. In addition, T-2 toxin possesses a strong dermal irritation effect and can be absorbed even through intact skin.
