This is due to the important role of temperature in normal and pathological conditions. Directly or indirectly almost all systems and organs are involved in maintaining of relatively constant temperature in the body, since their normal functioning is closely related to the temperature of the internal environment (temperature homeostasis). Currently, the existence of two systems of thermoregulation is recognized: a physiological organ-based system with a center in the hypothalamus and a molecular system, which manifests itself in the form of the production of proteins (heat shock- and cold shock proteins) and by activation of RNA thermometers in response to heat or cold shock. Based on studies of the variability of chromosomal heterochromatin regions in the genome of human populations permanently living in various climatic and geographical conditions of Eurasia and Africa, as well as individuals well adapted to the extreme conditions of the high altitudes of the Pamirs and Tien-Shan (mountaineers) and the Far North (oil drillers of the Yamal Peninsula, Eastern Siberia), we came to the conclusion that, apparently, there is a third system of thermoregulation at the cellular level (cell thermoregulation). By cell thermoregulation, we mean the removal of excess heat from the nucleus of an interphase cell in order to avoid the harmful effects of high temperature on the complex molecular processes occurring in the nucleoplasm. We believe that some intracellular formations (a dense layer of condensed chromatin around the nucleus, nucleoli, chromocenters and other membraneless bodies) serve as a structural basis for the removal of heat from the cell nucleus, because the material basis of all these temporary structures in the interphase nucleus is the chromosomal heterochromatin regions. In this review, we discuss a set of data, which indicate that cell thermoregulation, may be a missing link between organism and molecular level in maintaining temperature homeostasis in the human body.","PeriodicalId":72392,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical research and clinical reviews","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48429259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The DNA of euchromatin contains the gene portion of the genome, while heterochromatin is represented predominantly from non-coding repetitive nucleotide sequences that do not encode proteins or enzymes. In higher eukaryotes, some part of the non-coding, highly repetitive nucleotide sequences were transformed into complex forms of DNA organization as chromosomal constitutive heterochromatin regions. There are two types of constitutive heterochromatin: C- and Q-heterochromatin. C-heterochromatin is found in the chromosomes of all eukaryotic cells, while Q-heterochromatin is found in the karyotype of only three higher primates (Homo sapiens, Gorilla gorilla and Pan troglodytes). Since the discovery of the position effect variegation phenomenon C-heterochromatin has been attributed to gene silencing effects. Dosage compensation of genes is another epigenetic gene silencing mechanism that makes it possible to equalize the level of expression of sex-linked genes in males and females. In mammals, this is done by inactivating one X chromosome in the cells of females using facultative heterochromatin, which is a heterochromatinized euchromatin. However, no epigenetic gene silencing was found in chromosomal Q-heterochromatin regions (Q-HRs). The question is discussed why human chromosomal Q-HRs does not exhibit gene silencing or other epigenetic effects and what their biological role might be.","PeriodicalId":72392,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical research and clinical reviews","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45977727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SARS-CoV-2 infection induces a cytokine storm due to dose-dependent production of IL-6 from bronchial epithelial cells; therefore, Tocilizumab, a monoclonal antibody against the interleukin-6 receptor, is one of the recommended drugs for treatment of COVID-19 infection. It may result in better outcomes in patients with severe Covid-19 infection. The efficacy and timing of Tocilizumab therapy in severe COVID-19 infection in Myanmar was not known clearly. Methods: A hospital based interventional study design (Randomized controlled trial) was conducted in COVID-19 treatment centers in Myanmar -Yangon and Nay Pyi Taw, from February 2020 to August 2021. Supervised treatment was done; and, both clinical and laboratory data were collected by using standardized forms and analysis was done. We conducted a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of intravenous Tocilizumab in adults who were hospitalized with severe COVID-19 infection. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either Tocilizumab or placebo for within 5 days. The primary outcome was the time to recovery, defined by either discharge from the hospital or hospitalization for infection-control purposes only. Results: A total of 105 patients (55 in Tocilizumab group and 50 in Standard treatment group) with severe COVID-19 infection were included. Baseline characteristics in Tocilizumab group and Standard treatment group were as follows: (1) mean age 64.4 ± 11.9 years and 59.9 ± 15.8 years; (2) BMI 24.3 ± 3.0 and 23.9 ± 5.0; (3) mean duration of symptom onset to hospital admission was 9.5 ± 4.4 days and 6.5 ± 3.8; (4) mean duration of symptom onset to treatment was 12.8 ± 3.8 days and 7.1 ± 3.8 days; (6) mean duration of hospital stay was 20.1 ± 16.5 days and 11.4 ± 4.8 days; (7) associated co-morbidities was 88% and 70%; and, (8) mean CXR severity score by Braxia was 12.0 ± 2.0 and 9.6 ± 3.4 respectively. The survival rate in early treatment receiving group was 80% in Tocilizumab group and 65.5% in Standard treatment group; that of median treatment receiving group was 40% and 62.5% respectively. The survival rate in late treatment receiving group reduced to 36% in Tocilizumab group; however, no one survived in Standard treatment group. Inflammatory markers (Ferritin, LDH, D dimer and CRP) dropped significantly at 24 hours and 72 hours after Tocilizumab treatment; the difference was noticeable between survivors and non-survivors. Absolute lymphocyte count, liver enzymes (AST and ALT) and procalcitonin levels became normal by 2 weeks. No significant changes were seen in serum creatinine and blood urea level.

The consequence of such negative attitude is poor management of people with HIV/AIDS who need most care, treatment, and support. Aim: To evaluate attitudes and behaviors of healthcare professionals toward HIV/AIDS patients in a tertiary hospital in Nigeria Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in Federal Teaching Hospital, Ido-Ekiti, Nigeria. 250 healthcare professionals were selected randomly, Participants completed a well-structured, self-administered questionnaire delivered to them at their workplace. Data obtained from the questionnaire was analyzed using SPSS software version 9. Results: A total of 250 healthcare professionals participated in the study, 148(59.2%) were males and 102 (40.8%) were females. 153(61.2%) of them had been working between 0- 10 years with prevalence age group 30-40 years. Majority of Healthcare professionals (HCPs) in this study demonstrated positive attitude and behaviour toward HIV/AIDS patients. However, minority of HCPs had negative attitudes toward HIV/AIDS patients by agreed to the statements that HCPs should not share office with HIV patients, beds of HIV patients should be marked and HCPs should allow relation to marry HIV patients. Conclusion: Healthcare professionals should have access to up-to-date information on all aspects of HIV/AIDS through effective training on the modes of HIV transmission, prevention, counselling, guidelines for safe practice and the rights of PLWHIV, this would reduce discriminatory attitudes towards PLWHIV and also improve patients' care and access to quality healthcare services.","PeriodicalId":72392,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical research and clinical reviews","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42449840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
