Features of Cytokine and VEGFA Gene Expression Modified with SARS-CoV-2 Virus in an In Vitro Experiment (Using the Example of the SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Antigen).

The influence of SARS-CoV-2 antigen on the cytokine-producing function of immune cells was studied. We observed suppression of the production of proinflammatory cytokines by 11-46% relative to the spontaneous level under the influence of SARS-CoV-2 antigen vaccine simulator, as well as when it was co-administered with cortisol (IL-6 by 1.8 times and IFNγ by 1.

[Immune and genetic changes in workers exposed to industrial noise and dust].

Comparative analysis covered immune genetic parameters in nonferrous metallurgy workers. The authors demonstrated differences in immune genetic profile between male and female workers, under exposure to combination of occupational hazards: noise and dust. Analysis of gene polymorphism revealed predominant disorders in the female workers, concerning criterion of prevalence for minor allele of genes in 1 and 2 phases of detoxication, neuro-endocrine regulation, lipid and energy metabolism, genes of immune regulation and apoptosis.

[Immune and genetic markers revealed in women working in technical rubber goods production].

Medical examination covered female workers engaged into chemical production of technical rubber goods, under combined exposure to chemicals (nitrogen oxides, carbon oxide) and noise exceeding MAC by 3.7-27.5%.
