ABSTRACT
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor and different efforts have been employed in the search for new drugs and therapeutic protocols for GBM. Epitranscriptomics has shed light on new druggable Epigenetic therapies specifically designed to modulate GBM biology and behavior such as Histone Deacetylase inhibitors (iHDAC). Although the effects of iHDAC on GBM have been largely explored, there is a lack of information on the underlaying mechanisms HDAC-dependent that modulate the repertoire of GBM secreted molecules focusing on the set of Extracellular Matrix (ECM) associated proteins, the Matrisome, that may impact the surrounding tumor microenvironment. To acquire a better comprehension of the impacts of HDAC activity on the GBM Matrisome, we studied the alterations on the Matrisome-associated ECM regulators, Core Matrisome ECM glycoproteins, ECM-affiliated proteins and Proteoglycans upon HDAC inhibition in vitro as well as their relationship with glioma pathophysiological/clinical features and angiogenesis. For this, U87MG GBM cells were treated for with iHDAC or vehicle (control) and the whole secretome was processed by Mass Spectrometry NANOLC-MS/MS. In silico analyses revealed that proteins associated to the Angiogenic Matrisome (AngioMatrix), including Decorin, ADAM10, ADAM12 and ADAM15 were differentially regulated in iHDAC versus control secretome. Interestingly, genes coding for the Matrisome proteins differentially regulated were found mutated in patients and were correlated to glioma pathophysiological/clinical features. In vitro functional assays, using HBMEC endothelial cells exposed to the secretome of control or iHDAC treated GBM cells, coupled to 2D and 3D GBM cell culture system, showed impaired migratory capacity of endothelial cells and disrupted tubulogenesis in a Fibronectin and VEGF independent fashion. Collectively, our study provides understanding of epigenetic mechanisms HDAC-dependent to key Matrisomal proteins that may contribute to identify new druggable Epigenetic therapies or gliomagenesis biomarkers with relevant implications to improve therapeutic protocols for this malignancy.

Objectives: Despite being a widespread tool, telehealth was significantly incorporated during the COVID-19 pandemic period, but it still lacks analysis methodologies, greater digital security, and satisfaction assessment instruments that are still little explored and validated. The objective is to assess user satisfaction through the validation of a satisfaction scale with a telemedicine COVID-19 service (TeleCOVID). Methods: Cross-sectional study of a cohort of confirmed COVID-19 cases evaluated and monitored by the TeleCOVID team. To study the scale's measurement qualities, a factorial analysis was performed to test the validity of the construct. Correlation between items and the global scale was assessed using Spearman's correlation coefficient, and the instrument's internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Results: There were 1,181 respondents evaluating the care received from the TeleCOVID project. A total of 61.6% were female, and 62.4% aged between 30 and 59 years. The correlation coefficients indicated a good correlation between the items present in the instrument. The internal consistency of the global scale was high (Cronbach's alpha = 0.903) and the item-total correlations for the scale ranged from 0.563 to 0.820. The average overall user satisfaction was 4.58, based upon a 5-point Likert scale where 5 is the highest level of satisfaction. Conclusions: The results presented here show how much telehealth can contribute to improving access, resolutibility, and quality of care to the population in general in Public Health Care. In view of the results found, it can be said that the TeleCOVID team offered excellent care and fulfilled its proposed objectives. The scale fulfills its objective of evaluating the quality of teleservice, bringing good results in terms of validity and reliability, in addition to showing high levels of user satisfaction.

ABSTRACT
This work aimed to evaluate the performance of co-cultivation of potential probiotic yeast and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in producing plant-based fermented beverages. The co-culture comprised LAB Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CCMA0743 with the yeasts Pichia kluyveri CCMA 0615, Pichia guilliermondii CCMA 1753 and Debaryomyces hansenii CCMA 1761 separately. The plant substrate was 75 g oat, 175 g sunflower seeds, and 75 g almonds. The viability of microorganisms in the plant-based matrix was evaluated during fermentation, storage at 4 °C, and under simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) conditions. Chemical analysis, antioxidant activity, and sensory profile of the beverages were also determined. The three yeasts and the LAB showed counts greater than 6.0 log CFU/mL after fermentation, and the plant-based matrix protected the yeasts during simulated digestion. P. kluyveri and D. hansenii showed higher survival than P. guilliermondii and L. plantarum after exposure to simulated GIT conditions. The pH of the plant-based matrix reduced from approximately 7 to 3.8. Lactic acid was the main organic acid produced during fermentation. In addition, 113 volatile compounds were detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), including alcohols, aldehydes, alkanes, alkenes, acids, ester, ether, ketones, phenol, and amides. The beverage sensory profile varied with the co-culture. The co-culture D. hansenii and L. plantarum showed higher antioxidant activity than the other co-culture tested, and the homogeneous texture attribute characterized the beverage produced with this combination. Results show the suitability of tested co-cultures to produce a plant-based fermented beverage and indicate more significant potential for D. hansenii and L. plantarum co-culture as a starter for its functionalization.

Several non-dairy probiotic beverages are already available to consumers and have been considered suitable carriers for probiotic bacteria. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CCMA 0743 in single and co-culture on the volatile compounds and sensory profiles of fermented passion fruit juice. The viability of strains inoculated in juice and MRS matrices was evaluated in a simulated gastrointestinal condition. The bacterial viability after 28 days of refrigerated storage of the juices was also evaluated. L. plantarum CCMA 0743 showed high viability (6.18 Log CFU/mL) after passage throughout simulated digestion in the passion fruit juice matrix. Both juices maintained high probiotic counts (>8.0 Log CFU/mL) during storage. Also, the yellow color was stable after 28 days of storage. Volatile compounds of passion fruit juices were modified after the fermentation process, such as ketones and alcohol formation degradation. The sensory profile of passion fruit juice was modified by single and co-culture fermentations. The fermented samples were mainly correlated with the terminologies "salty, acidic and bitter tastes" and "sweetener aftertaste". Overall, passion fruit juice proved to be an adequate food matrix to deliver the evaluated strains. However, individual strains or strain-strain interactions with the food matrix affect the fermented product, demonstrating that strain and matrices evaluations are essential for developing novel products with acceptable characteristics.

ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Purpose: to identify the impact of swallowing changes and dysphagia complaints on quality-of-life and eating self-assessments of COVID-19 inpatients. Methods: the study comprised 54 COVID-19 inpatients above 18 years old, whose swallowing was clinically assessed by a speech-language-hearing therapist. They were classified regarding food intake (with the FOIS scale) and degree of dysphagia. They also filled out a sample characterization questionnaire and the SWAL-QOL and EAT-10 protocols. Results: the respiratory condition led to worse quality-of-life self-assessment Fatigue results, oral food intake and dysphagia severity classifications. Females had worse quality-of-life self-assessment Burden and Food selection scores. Swallowing complaints were associated with worse eating self-assessments. Patients at risk of dysphagia had worse quality-of-life self-assessments in five out of the 11 domains, worse oral food intake levels, and worse dysphagia severity. Conclusion: COVID-19 inpatients commonly have swallowing complaints and are at risk of dysphagia, with worse quality-of-life self-assessment, lower oral food intake classification, and worse dysphagia severity rating.

ABSTRACT
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a grade IV glioma highly aggressive and refractory to the therapeutic approaches currently in use. O-GlcNAcylation plays a key role for tumor aggressiveness and progression in different types of cancer; however, experimental evidence of its involvement in GBM are still lacking. Here, we show that O-GlcNAcylation plays a critical role in maintaining the composition of the GBM secretome, whereas inhibition of OGA activity disrupts the intercellular signaling via microvesicles. Using a label-free quantitative proteomics methodology, we identified 51 proteins in the GBM secretome whose abundance was significantly altered by activity inhibition of O-GlcNAcase (iOGA). Among these proteins, we observed that proteins related to proteasome activity and to regulation of immune response in the tumor microenvironment were consistently downregulated in GBM cells upon iOGA. While the proteins IGFBP3, IL-6 and HSPA5 were downregulated in GBM iOGA cells, the protein SQSTM1/p62 was exclusively found in GBM cells under iOGA. These findings were in line with literature evidence on the role of p62/IL-6 signaling axis in suppressing tumor aggressiveness and our experimental evidence showing a decrease in radioresistance potential of these cells. Taken together, our findings provide evidence that OGA activity may regulate the p62 and IL-6 abundance in the GBM secretome. We propose that the assessment of tumor status from the main proteins present in its secretome may contribute to the advancement of diagnostic, prognostic and even therapeutic tools to approach this relevant malignancy.
