The investigation of the perspectives for the application of alternative protein sources in food production has allowed us to identify two main directions requiring comprehensive scientific support: firstly, the development of production and processing of food protein technologies to obtain food hydrolysates with a given composition and properties, and secondly, the assessment of the such product safety, including evaluation of their allergenic potential. Currently, within the second direction, research is being conducted to improve approaches to assessing the allergenic potential of innovative food, search for new in vitro and in vivo models and biomarkers to guarantee the safety of these products for consumers. of the study was to research the allergenic potential of the methanotrophic bacteria protein hydrolysates on the model of systemic anaphylaxis in rats and to formulate approaches to assessing the novel foods' safety.

Host response aimed at eliminating the infecting pathogen, as well as the pathogen itself, can cause tissue injury. Tissue injury leads to the release of a myriad of cellular components including mitochondrial DNA, which the host senses through pattern recognition receptors. How the sensing of tissue injury by the host shapes the anti-pathogen response remains poorly understood.

High blood levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) have been shown in various malignancies. In lung cancer, the importance of NT-proBNP is not clear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the significance of the correlation of NT-proBNP levels in lung cancer with tumor stage, tumor diameter, histopathology, and specific sites of mediastinal metastasis: lymphadenopathy; pericardial, cardiac, major vessel, other mediastinal organ or lymphatic involvement/invasion.

Background: Improved diagnostic testing (DT) of infections may optimize outcomes for solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR), but a comprehensive analysis is lacking.
Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review across multiple databases, including EMBASE and MEDLINE(R), of studies published between 1 January 2012-11 June 2022, to examine the evidence behind DT in SOTR. Eligibility criteria included the use of conventional diagnostic methods (culture, biomarkers, directed-polymerase chain reaction [PCR]) or advanced molecular diagnostics (broad-range PCR, metagenomics) to diagnose infections in hospitalized SOTR.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the possible association of LPCAT1-rs8352 genetic variant (single nucleotide change C to G) with the onset and severity of pediatric asthma. Additionally, the study examined the influence of LPCAT1-rs8352 genotypes on asthma-related biomarkers including blood eosinophils count (BEC), eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and immunoglobulin E (IgE) and on lung function [forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and the forced vital capacity (FVC)].
Patients And Methods: The study included ninety-six participant grouped into two groups: G1 (46 asthmatics) and G2 (50 healthy controls).
