Remodeling of the chromatin landscape in peripheral blood cells in patients with severe Delta COVID-19.

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.

Enhancing genetic discovery through narrow phenotyping in schizophrenia.

Background: Schizophrenia varies greatly from person to person, mainly because of its polygenic nature. Consequently, schizophrenia patients form distinct subphenotypes of schizophrenia, with specific symptom patterns and outcomes.

Methods: This study included 4257 adults, with long-term schizophrenia (control - 8955 individuals) who were assessed for schizophrenia with potentially severe outcomes based on following criteria: disability in functional and/or physical domains before the age of 40; severe negative symptoms (present in infancy or shortly after onset); a continuous course of the disease.

Characteristics of the Gut Microbiota Composition of the Arctic Zone Residents in the Far Eastern Region.

. In many studies over the past decade, scientists have made a connection between the composition of gut microbiota and human health. A number of publications have shown that gut bacteria are involved in many metabolic and physiological processes of the organism.

Nonstoichiometry as a hidden aspect of TbAl(BO) optical properties.

TbAl(BO) should not be considered as a strictly stoichiometric compound. A variety of TbAl(BO) ( = -0.1-0.

[A clinical case of reverse left ventricular remodeling in patient with pathogenic TTN mutation. Case report].

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a leading cause of heart failure, sudden cardiac death, and heart transplantation in young patients. The causes of DCM are varied and include genetic factors and metabolic, infectious, toxic and others factors. Today it is known that germline mutations in more than 98 genes can be associated with the occurrence of DCM.
