Humans travelling periodically to Antarctica undergo newlinestress due to capsule environment and environmental conditions. Stay in Antarctica is understood newlineto affect cognition, behavior, emotions and increase shedding of latent virus. Yoga, an ancient newlineIndian system and way of life has been proven to alleviate stress, promote psycho-social wellbeing, newlineregulate the autonomic nervous system, immunity, endocrine system and also improves cognitive newlineoutcomes. Despite several studies proving Yoga to be an effective intervention, the mechanism of newlineaction of Yoga practices are least understood. This gene expression study was designed with an newlineobjective to understand the role of yoga practices in facilitating human adaptation in extreme newlineenvironmental conditions. newlineMethods: newlineTwenty-five Members of age 35±7.8 years, screened negative for pre-existing psychological and newlinepathological conditions and declared clinically healthy for the 35th Indian Scientific expedition to newlineAntarctica were recruited for the study following obtaining written informed consent. A yoga newlinemodule was designed and validated for administration during sea voyage and at Antarctica. The newlineintervention was administered for one hour daily for 87 days consisting of sea voyage and stay at newlineAntarctica . Psychological assessments for sleep quality and perseverative cognition were newlineperformed at the start and on completion of the expedition. Blood samples were collected at four newlinetimepoints: baseline, on reaching Antarctica, while departing from Bharati and before departing newlinefrom Antarctica. Single color Gene expression studies were conducted on blood samples collected newlineat baseline, on reaching Antarctica and before departing from Antarctica. As the baseline serum newlinesamples were not available, Biochemistry tests and chemiluminescence assays were performed on newlineother three timepoints. newline |
