The Seveso accident: A look at 40 years of health research and beyond
Environment International, 2018 A 1976 chemical factory explosion near Seveso, Italy exposed residents to high levels of 2,3,7,8-tetracholorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD or dioxin). Dioxin is a known human carcinogen and potent endocrine disruptor. It is highly lipophilic and has a long half-

Advanced Science, EarlyView.In septic cardiomyopathy, PARP7 directly binds TBK1 and mediates its ADP‐ribosylation, thereby repressing TBK1‐driven proinflammatory signaling in macrophages. ABSTRACT Septic cardiomyopathy is a life‐threatening complication of sepsis, and an uncontrolled inflammatory response represents a key pathogenic mechanism. PARP7 negatively regulates the IFN‐I
