“…The cytotoxic activities of CTX are, nevertheless, pharmacologically diverse. Depending on the dose of CTX, the cell death could be caused by apoptosis or necrosis [ 32 ] mediated through various mechanisms, e.g., mitochondrial fragmentation (CTX binding to cardiolipin) and membrane pore formation (CTX interacting electrostatically with anionic lipids) [ 33 , 34 ]. Earlier studies also showed that some cobra CTXs could elicit cardiotoxicity through disrupting calcium regulation in cardiac muscle cells, thus prolonging membrane depolarization, resulting in systolic heart arrest [ 35 , 36 ].…”

“…LDs also have a more dynamic role since proteins present in the lipid droplet coat regulate lipid homeostasis, and therefore, LDs play a very important role in the regulation of intracellular lipid storage and lipid metabolism [ 65 ]. Single-strand RNA viruses, including coronaviruses, target LDs during their replication phase [ 66 , 67 ]. Given the role of LDs in viral replication, it has been proposed to use drugs interfering with LDs as therapeutics able to counteract SARS-CoV-2 infection [ 66 , 68 ].…”

“…4 Moreover, new anti-hepatitis C drugs have remarkably reduced the complications linked to hepatitis C infection, which used to dramatically deteriorate liver iron overload. 5 However, in spite of the outstanding advances in the care of cardiovascular and hepatic complications due to blood transfusions, the management of endocrine complications has been left behind and, nowadays, they are the most frequent and the most resource-draining complications in TDT patients. 3 In addition, serological testing fails to identify high-risk groups and, once occurred, these complications are often irreversible.…”
