In addition to the overwhelming lung inflammation that prevails in COVID-19, hypercoagulation and thrombosis contribute lethality of subjects infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Platelets are chiefly implicated thrombosis. Moreover, they can interact viruses an important source inflammatory mediators. While a lower platelet count is associated severity mortality, little known about function during COVID-19.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is responsible for disease 2019 (COVID-19). While COVID-19 often benign, a subset of patients develops severe multilobar pneumonia that can progress to an distress syndrome. There no cure and few treatments significantly improved clinical outcome. Dexamethasone possibly aspirin, which directly/indirectly target the biosynthesis/effects numerous lipid mediators are among those options. Our objective was define if were characterized by increased...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can lead to a variety of clinical outcomes, ranging from the absence symptoms severe disease and ultimately death. A feature patients with 2019 (COVID-19) is abundance inflammatory cytokines in blood. Elevated levels are predictive severity outcome. In contrast, studies aimed at defining driving forces behind inflammation lungs subjects COVID-19 remain scarce.Our aim was analyze compare plasma bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)...

Abstract Platelets are hyperactivated in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the mechanisms promoting platelet activation by severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) not well understood. This may be due to inherent challenges discriminating contribution of viral vs host components produced infected cells. is particularly true for enveloped viruses and extracellular vesicles (EVs), as they concomitantly released during infection share biophysical properties. To study this,...

Abstract The purpose of this study is to develop and test machine learning-based models for COVID-19 severity prediction. samples from 337 positive patients at Cheikh Zaid Hospital were grouped according the their illness. Ours first estimate illness by combining biological non-biological data with COVID-19. Moreover use ML therapeutic purposes in Morocco currently restricted, ours investigate When analysis approaches used uncover patterns essential characteristics data, C-reactive protein,...

The rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 threatens global public health and impedes the operation healthcare systems. Several studies have been conducted to confirm infection examine its risk factors. To produce more effective treatment options vaccines, it is still necessary investigate biomarkers immune responses in order gain a deeper understanding disease pathophysiology. This study aims determine how cytokines influence severity infection. We measured plasma levels 48 blood 87 participants...

The regulation of gene expression is fundamental to health and life essentially carried out at the promoter region DNA each gene. Depending on molecular context, this may be accessible or non-accessible (possibility integration RNA polymerase not region). Among enzymes that control process, methyltransferase (DNMTs), are responsible for demethylation CpG islands, particularly regions, regulate transcription. aberrant activity these enzymes, i.e. their abnormal activity, can result in...

Tetradenia riparia (T. riparia) is a medicinal plant native to sub-Saharan Africa, traditionally used but has limited in vivo scientific validation. This study evaluated its antioxidant, toxicity, and anti-inflammatory effects using toxicity tests, paw edema, air pouch models, vascular permeability assessment. Additionally, qualitative phytochemical analysis quantitative measurements of total polyphenolic flavonoid content were conducted. In vitro assays revealed significant concentrations...

Abstract Alongside genetic events, epigenetic processes also have a considerable impact on cancer induction and progression. Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) histone deacetylases (HDACs) both coordinate to modulate modification via acetylation, an essential component of regulation concerning gene expression. In this context, HDAC inhibition has been extensively investigated as therapeutic approach discovering anticancer drugs. Nevertheless, it is still highly challenging design inhibitors...

Treatment of kidney stones is based on symptomatic medications which are associated with side effects such as gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g., nausea, vomiting) and hepatotoxicity. The search for effective plant extracts without the above has demonstrated involvement antioxidants in treatment stones. A local survey Morocco previously revealed frequent use Rubia tinctorum L. (RT) In this study, we first explored whether RT ethanolic (E-RT) ethyl acetate (EA-RT) could prevent occurrence...
