Effect of near-infrared and blue laser light on vero E6 cells SARS-CoV-2 infection model
(
Wiley
, 2022 , Article)
Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) employing laser light has been emerging as a safe strategy to challenge viruses. In this study the effect of blue and near-infrared (NIR) laser light was assessed in an in vitro model of ...
SARS-CoV-2 modulates virus receptor expression in placenta and can induce trophoblast fusion, inflammation and endothelial permeability
(
Frontiers Media
, 2022 , Article)
SARS-CoV-2 is a devastating virus that induces a range of immunopathological mechanisms including cytokine storm, apoptosis, inflammation and complement and coagulation pathway hyperactivation. However, how the infection ...
SARS-CoV-2 does not replicate in HaCaT spontaneously immortalized human keratinocytes: implications for the pathogenesis of COVID-19-associated skin manifestations
(
John Libbey Eurotext
, 2022 , Article)
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2)-related cutaneous manifestations have been reported [1], however, the direct or indirect role of SARS-CoV-2 infection in their pathophysiology is still debated ...
Blue photobiomodulation LED therapy impacts SARS-CoV-2 by limiting its replication in Vero cells
(
Wiley
, 2021 , Article)
The study of any intervention able to counteract SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is considerably envisaged. It was previously shown, in in vitro models of infections, that the LED blue light is able to decrease the viral load of HSV-1 ...
SARS-CoV-2 Short-Time Infection Produces Relevant Cytopathic Effects in Vero E6 Cell Line.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is mainly transmitted through respiratory droplets from positive subjects to susceptible hosts or by direct contact with an infected individual. Our study ...
Evaluation of residual infectivity after SARS-CoV-2 aerosol transmission in a controlled laboratory setting
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is mainly transmitted through respiratory droplets, aerosols, or direct contact with fomites from an infected subject. It has been reported that SARS-CoV-2 ...
Molecular detection of SARS-CoV-2 from indoor air samples in environmental monitoring needs adequate temporal coverage and infectivity assessment
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The relevance of airborne exposure to SARS-CoV-2 in indoor environments is a matter of research and debate, with special importance for healthcare low-risk settings. Experimental approaches to the bioaerosol sampling are ...
Do inflammasome impact COVID-19 severity?
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article Review)
COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be a dramatic challenge, introducing huge clinical differences that demand extensive investigations. Severe and critical patients may present coagulopathies and microthrombi, which results ...
Effect of Short Time of SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Caco-2 Cells.
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) clinical manifestations include the involvement of the gastrointestinal tract, affecting around 10% of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-infected children. In ...
Comparison between nucleic acid amplification tests, antigen immunofluorescence assay, and in vitro infectivity in SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis.
(
Springer
, 2022 , Article)
The number of SARS-CoV-2 detection tests requested to the laboratories has dramatically increased together with an urgent need to release reliable responses in a very short time. The two options taken into consideration ...
