Background: Epileptic patients are worried about getting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection and have recurrent thoughts of becoming infected with this virus.
Materials And Methods: This study involved 205 patients diagnosed with epilepsy. The questionnaire included questions about sociodemographic information to analyze the demographic composition.
The tripartite motif-containing protein 66 (TRIM66, also known as TIF1-delta) is a PHD-Bromo-containing protein primarily expressed in post-meiotic male germ cells known as spermatids. Biophysical assays showed that the TRIM66 PHD-Bromodomain binds to H3 N-terminus only when lysine 4 is unmethylated. We addressed TRIM66's role in reproduction by loss-of-function genetics in the mouse.

Method: This study was executed in three phases.
The dorsal periaqueductal gray is a midbrain structure implicated in the control of defensive behaviors and the processing of painful stimuli. Electrical stimulation or optogenetic activation of excitatory neurons in dorsal periaqueductal gray results in freezing or flight behavior at low and high intensity, respectively. However, the output structures that mediate these defensive behaviors remain unconfirmed.
