Global health and medical practice seek to merge alternative medicine with evidence-based for a better understanding of the metabolic process its effects in human body. An example is use complementary like phytotherapy. Azadirachta indica (Neem), tree originally from India Myanmar, called by many "The village pharmacy" or "Divine tree" because properties. In recent times, Neem-derived extracts have been shown work anywhere insect repellent, supplements lower inflammation, diabetic control,...
Unique insights for the reprograming of cell lineages have come from embryonic development in ascidian Ciona , which is dependent upon transcription factors Ci -ets1/2 and -mesp to generate cardiac progenitors. We tested idea that mammalian v-ets erythroblastosis virus E26 oncogene homolog 2 (ETS2) mesoderm posterior (MESP) may be used convert human dermal fibroblasts into Here we show murine ETS2 has a critical role directing progenitors during cardiopoiesis stem cells. then use...
Mexico has become one of the most highly affected countries by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in Latin America. Therefore, efficient vaccination programs are needed to address COVID-19 pandemic. Although recent advances around world have made it possible develop vaccines record time, there been increasing fear and misinformation vaccines. Hence, understanding vaccine hesitancy is imperative for modeling successful strategies. In this study, we analyzed attitude perceptions...
The world is currently subjected to the worst health crisis documented in modern history: an epidemic led by novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). At epicenter of this crisis, healthcare professionals continue working safeguard our well-being. To regular high levels stress, COVID-19 adds even more so particular, depending on their area, specialty, and type work. Here we investigated what are tendencies or areas most affected. Through adaptation original COVID-stress scales, developed a...
To mitigate the COVID-19 infection, many world governments endorsed cessation of non-essential activities, such as school attendance, forcing a shift teaching model to virtual classroom. From this shift, several changes in paradigm derived, addition pandemic, which could have an impact academic professional's mental health. In present work we show application modified version adapted stress scales (ACSS) also included anxiety and preparedness, resilience for professionals Mexico. These were...
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. complication can give rise to myocardial infarction which produces cell by blockage blood flow, loss heart function. Current treatments directed at repair have several disadvantages such as lack donors for transplantation or use non-bioactive inert materials replacement damage tissue. New treatment strategies involve stimulation tissue regeneration with bioactive like chitosan, in combination cells and biochemical factors....
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) represents one of the greatest challenges to public health in modern history. As continues spread globally, medical and allied healthcare professionals have become most affected sectors. Stress anxiety are indirect effects COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, it is paramount understand categorize their perceived levels stress, as can be a detonating factor leading mental illness. Here, we propose computer-based method better stress workers facing at beginning We based...
The CACCC-box motif emerges as a pivotal cis-regulatory element implicated in diverse developmental processes and diseases, particularly cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This study centers on the intricate interplay between its binding proteins such as: Krüppel-like family (KLF) of transcription factors primary effectors context CVDs. Our analysis was through bioinformatics approach, which reveal significant transcriptional activity among KLF subgroup 2, exhibiting highest number interactions...
Development of tissue-engineered hearts for treatment myocardial infarction or biologic pacemakers has been hindered by the production mostly arrhythmic in-synergistic constructs. Electrical stimulation (ES) these constructs shown to produce tissues with greater twitch force and better adrenergic response. To further our understanding mechanisms underlying effect ES, we fabricated a bioreactor capable delivering continuous intermittent waveforms various types multiple simultaneously. In this...
We assessed the anti-fibrotic effects of methanolic black bean extract antioxidants in a carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) liver injury model rats. Experimentally intoxicated animals received CCl4 for eight weeks, reference and test groups daily intragastric quercetin or extract. Liver fibrosis was quantified using morphometric analysis. Expression related genes measured by real time RT-PCR. Qualitative quantitative histological analysis showed that administration 70 mg/kg b.w. reduced hepatic...
