The new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), has become the latest worldwide emergency. It is known that SARS-CoV-2 enters the cells of the respiratory mucosa through the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ECA2) receptor, which is highly expressed in the epithelial cells of the lung where the virus is capable of causing a primary inflammatory…
Introduction: Climate change is the main health concern today, especially the increase in average global temperature. On hotter days, the body's thermoregulation occurs, which can lead to dehydration and kidney stress. Because the diagnosis of kidney injuries is made more difficult by the emergence of more visible symptoms when there is a worsening of the individual's health condition and…
The use of clinical biomarkers, such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), provides a more agile, less expensive and shorter clinical outcome. Currently, hs-CRP is widely used in routine laboratory tests as a nonspecific inflammatory marker, but it can be particularly useful in specific clinical conditions, such as guiding antibiotic therapy in neonatal sepsis and in the clinic…
The novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), has become the latest global emergency. Vitamin D, due to its important immunomodulatory function, may indicate a potential risk factor in coronavirus infections when deficient in an individual. The TAQ1 (rs731236) and FOX (rs2228570) polymorphisms in the VDR gene may be associated with the sev…
The new coronavirus, the causative agent of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), has become the latest global emergency. Several risk factors have already been identified and associated with the disease, such as plasma concentration of Vitamin D (Vit. D). The action of Vit. D in our body is modulated by the vitamin D receptor, encoded by the vitamin D receptor gene (VDR). Thus, polymorphi…
The SARS-CoV-2 virus, the causative agent of COVID-19, has become the latest global crisis, with over 37 million confirmed cases and over 700,000 deaths in Brazil. The virus can induce an intense inflammatory cascade, known as the "inflammatory storm," which explains the severe lung damage and results in Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Interferons (IFNs) directly participate in …
Fluoropyrimidines are chemotherapic drugs indicated for the treatment of colorectal, breast, or stomach cancer. It is a widely used drug, however, more than 30% of treated patients develop adverse events such as diarrhea, neutropenia, and hand-foot syndrome. The DPYD gene codes for the enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), which is responsible for catalyzing the reaction of transf…
