FOLIC ACID RESTRICTS SARS-COV-2 INVASION BY METHYLATING ACE2

Folic acid restricts SARS-CoV-2 invasion by methylating ACE2

The current COVID-19 pandemic is motivating us to elucidate the molecular mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 invasion and find methods for decreasing its transmissibility.We found that SARS-CoV-2 could display controller increase the protein level of ACE2 in mice.Folic acid and 5-10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) could promote the methylation of

Negative Correlation Between Functional Connectivity and Small-Worldness in the Alpha Frequency Band of a Healthy Brain

The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between resting state electroencephalographic (EEG) alpha functional connectivity (FC) and small-world organization.For that purpose, Pearson correlation was calculated between FC and small-worldness (SW).Three undirected FC measures were used: magnitude-squared coherence (MSC), imaginary part of
