Lessons Learned from the COVID-19 Vaccination Campaigns in Veneto Region: Population Vaccination Centers as Support for the Traditional Outpatient Model.

The extraordinary vaccination campaigns of the COVID-19 pandemic era put organizational and operational systems to the test in numerous territorial contexts. In the Veneto region, the activation of population vaccination centers (CVPs) guaranteed the provision of vaccines to mountain areas. These centers, drive-in and building-based, improved the efficiency of dose administration in relation to similar conditions where healthcare workers (HCWs) were routinely involved in clinics.

Analysis of Radiation Toxicity in Mammalian Cells Stably Transduced with Mitochondrial .

A coordinated action between nuclear and mitochondrial activities is essential for a proper cellular response to genotoxic stress. Several nuclear transcription factors, including STAT3, translocate to mitochondria to exert mitochondrial function regulation; however, the role of mitochondrial STAT3 (mitoSTAT3) under stressed conditions is still poorly understood. In this study, we examined whether the stable expression of mitoSTAT3 wild-type or mutated at the conserved serine residue (Ser727), which is involved in the mitochondrial function of STAT3, can affect the DNA damage response to UVC radiation.

Biological Mechanisms to Reduce Radioresistance and Increase the Efficacy of Radiotherapy: State of the Art.

Cancer treatment with ionizing radiation (IR) is a well-established and effective clinical method to fight different types of tumors and is a palliative treatment to cure metastatic stages. Approximately half of all cancer patients undergo radiotherapy (RT) according to clinical protocols that employ two types of ionizing radiation: sparsely IR (i.e.

Genomic Changes Driven by Radiation-Induced DNA Damage and Microgravity in Human Cells.

The space environment consists of a complex mixture of different types of ionizing radiation and altered gravity that represents a threat to humans during space missions. In particular, individual radiation sensitivity is strictly related to the risk of space radiation carcinogenesis. Therefore, in view of future missions to the Moon and Mars, there is an urgent need to estimate as accurately as possible the individual risk from space exposure to improve the safety of space exploration.
