COVID-19 is characterized by systemic pro-inflammatory shifts with the development of serious alterations in the functioning of the immune system. Investigations of the gene expression changes accompanying the infection state provide insight into the molecular and cellular processes depending on the sickness severity and virus variants. Severe Delta COVID-19 has been characterized by the appearance of a monocyte subset enriched for proinflammatory gene expression signatures and a shift in ligand-receptor interactions.

The gut microbiota plays an important role in maintaining human health, as well as in the development of various pathologies, as indicated by a large amount of research. One of the manifestations of an imbalance in the gut microbiome composition is the appearance of various diseases or immune reactions, in particular, atopic dermatitis (AD) and/or food allergies (FA). In this research, using 16S NGS sequencing, it was found that the gut microbiome of children with food allergies and children with atopic dermatitis can be characterized as having higher inflammatory potential.

Anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination leads to the production of neutralizing as well as non-neutralizing antibodies. In the current study, we investigated the temporal dynamics of both sides of immunity after vaccination with two doses of Sputnik V against SARS-CoV-2 variants Wuhan-Hu-1 SARS-CoV-2 G614-variant (D614G), B.1.

Article Synopsis
  • MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial for regulating gene expression, and their dysregulation is frequently linked to cancer, particularly melanoma, the deadliest skin cancer.
  • This study focused on identifying significant miRNA biomarkers for advanced melanoma and evaluating their potential in diagnostics through blood plasma analysis, finding notable differences between melanoma patients and healthy controls.
  • Additionally, the research explored the efficacy of humic substances and chitosan to lower specific miRNA markers associated with melanoma, indicating their potential as therapeutic agents.

Introduction: The endometrial microbiota has been linked to several gynecological disorders, including infertility. It has been shown that the microbial profile of endometrium could have a role in fertilization and pregnancy outcomes. In this study we aim to assess the microbial community of endometrial tissue (ET) and endometrial fluid (EF) samples in women receiving in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment.
