Botulinum toxins and fillers for treatment of the aging face
TNOA Journal of Ophthalmic Science and Research, 2017 We present a comprehensive review of how to best use neuro-toxins and fillers to rejuvenate the aging face. With modern neuro-toxins and fillers, it is now possible to achieve an improvement in the aging changes of young, middle-aged, and older patients.

Tables of Toxicity of Botulinum and Tetanus Neurotoxins
Toxins, 2019 Tetanus and botulinum neurotoxins are the most poisonous substances known, so much so as to be considered for a possible terrorist use. At the same time, botulinum neurotoxin type A1 is successfully used to treat a variety of human syndromes ...

Scallop genome reveals molecular adaptations to semi-sessile life and neurotoxins
Nature Communications, 2017 Bivalve molluscs are descendants of an early-Cambrian lineage superbly adapted to benthic filter feeding. Adaptations in form and behavior are well recognized, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are largely unknown.
