    "Introduction: The mental health of the population has been affected by COVID-19, reporting in many populations higher levels of depressive, anxious and stress symptoms, however, in Honduras there are no studies showing the impact of COVID-19 on the mental health of the population. Aim: To determine the factors associated with hopelessness, depression and anxiety in times of COVID-19 in the Honduran population. Methods: Cross-sectional analytical study. Three scales were used, Beck for hopelessness, Hamilton for depression and anxiety, through interviews with the population attending different levels of health care throughout the country. Descriptive and analytical statistics were obtained. For hopelessness, the Beck Hopelessness Scale was used; for depression and anxiety, the Hamilton Scale was used. Results: Of the 8,125 participants, the population in general showed results of hopelessness 14.9%, depression 12.9% and anxiety 1.2%, there was less hopelessness among women (p = 0.004), university students (p < 0.001), but greater among those who had a family member deceased by COVID-19 (p < 0.001), among those who had diabetes mellitus (DM) (p < 0.001), history of mental illness (p < 0.001) or had consumed drugs in the last 6 months (p < 0.001). There was more depression among those with arterial hypertension (p = 0.002), obesity (p = 0.019), DM (p = 0.004), history of mental illness (p < 0.001) or had consumed drugs in the last 6 months (p < 0.001). There was more anxiety among those infected with COVID-19 (p = 0.023), according to having a family member deceased by COVID-19 (p = 0.045) and in those with a history of mental illness (p < 0.001). Discussion: The Honduran population presented important differences in the socio-pathological, according to the loss of family members or having previous illnesses, this according to the presentation of problems in the mental sphere. Conclusion: We found factors associated with hopelessness, we found factors associated with hopelessness, depression and anxiety in times of COVID-19 in the Honduran population

    UV-induced degradation of securin is mediated by SKP1-CUL1-βTrCP E3 ubiquitin ligase

    Get PDF
    Securin is a chaperone protein with bifunctional properties. It binds to separase to inhibit premature sister chromatid separation until the onset of anaphase, and it also takes part in cell-cycle arrest after UV irradiation. At metaphase-to-anaphase transition, securin is targeted for proteasomal destruction by the anaphase-promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C), allowing activation of separase. However, although securin is reported to undergo proteasome-dependent degradation after UV irradiation, the ubiquitin ligase responsible for securing ubiquitylation has not been well characterized. In this study, we show that UV radiation induced a marked reduction of securin in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. Moreover, we show that GSK-3β inhibitors prevent securin degradation, and that CUL1 and βTrCP are involved in this depletion. We also confirmed that SKP1-CUL1-βTrCP (SCFβTrCP) ubiquitylates securin in vivo, and identified a conserved and unconventional βTrCP recognition motif (DDAYPE) in the securin primary amino acid sequence of humans, nonhuman primates and rodents. Furthermore, downregulation of βTrCP caused an accumulation of securin in non-irradiated cells. We conclude that SCFβTrCP is the E3 ubiquitin ligase responsible for securing degradation after UV irradiation, and that it is involved in securin turnover in nonstressed cells.Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia SAF 2005-07713-C03-0

    Arabidopsis SWC4 Binds DNA and Recruits the SWR1 Complex to Modulate Histone H2A.Z Deposition at Key Regulatory Genes

    Deposition of the H2A.Z histone variant by the SWR1 complex (SWR1-C) in regulatory regions of specific loci modulates transcription. Characterization of mutations in Arabidopsis thaliana homologs of yeast SWR1-C has revealed a role for H2A.Z exchange in a variety of developmental processes. Nevertheless, the exact composition of plant SWR1-C and how it is recruited to target genes remains to be established. Here we show that SWC4, the Arabidopsis homolog of yeast SANT domain protein Swc4/Eaf2, is a DNA-binding protein that interacts with SWR1-C subunits. We demonstrate that the swc4-1 knockout mutant is embryo-lethal, while SWC4 RNAi knockdown lines display pleiotropic phenotypic alterations in vegetative and reproductive traits, including acceleration of flowering time, indicating that SWC4 controls post-embryonic processes. Transcriptomic analyses and genome-wide profiling of H2A.Z indicate that SWC4 represses transcription of a number of genes, including the floral integrator FT and key transcription factors, mainly by modulating H2A.Z deposition. Interestingly, SWC4 silencing does not affect H2A.Z deposition at the FLC locus nor expression of this gene, a master regulator of flowering previously shown to be controlled by SWR1-C. Importantly, we find that SWC4 recognizes specific AT-rich DNA elements in the chromatin regions of target genes and that SWC4 silencing impairs SWR1-C binding at FT. Collectively, our data suggest that SWC4 regulates plant growth and development by aiding SWR1-C recruitment and modulating H2A.Z deposition.This work was supported by grants BIO2010-15589, BIO2013-43098-R, and BIO2016-77559-R to J.A.J. and M.P., and grant RYC-2013-14689 to P.C. from the Spanish Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad (MINECO/FEDER, EU), and Marie Curie FP7-PEOPLE-2011-IEF grant 298790 to P.C. and J.A.J. from the European Commission.

    The therapeutic options for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease, consist of pharmacological treatment, percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass graft surgery. The ultimate goal of this surgery is to achieve complete revascularization with conduits that remain permeable for the remainder of the life of the patient. Some of the conduits used in this type of surgery, are the great saphenous vein, the internal thoracic artery, the radial artery and the ulnar artery. For a vascular conduit to be selected as a coronary revascularization graft, it must exhibit the following characteristics: sufficient length, lumen diameter and thickness of the vessel wall. It must also have minimal in situ ischemic consequences and an acceptable permeability over time of the conduit. Recent literatures of these conduits, as well as the importance of morphological and imaging studies are reviewed in this article

    This study aimed to analyze distance learning in Brazil and its use in special education as school inclusion. For this, a study and a bibliographic survey on the subject were carried out in periodicals, national scientific magazines and books for the present discussion. It is observed that distance learning is a modality in constant growth in Brazil, and the new information and communication technologies can contribute to education, becoming a possibility of inclusion in the teaching and learning process. However, the inclusion of subjects with some deficiency is still happening, because before the possibilities and perspectives, and the advances, it requires greater participation of the public agents through public policies. In order for special education and school inclusion to take place in an effective way, it is necessary for the teacher to be able to remain in a continuous formation, thereby attending to the disabled in the teaching and learning processes, that is, the teacher must be in constant learning . Distance learning has proved to be an alternative with good results in the education of the special education teacher. However, according to the survey, we observed that there are no reports of the use of distance learning as a possibility in special education for access and inclusion of subjects with some disability, but for the initial and continued formation of distance learning teacher and educator, it has been used as a possible means to professionals with more skills and competences in special education.El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo hacer un análisis de la educación a distancia en Brasil y su uso en la educación especial y en la inclusión escolar.
