Alterations of phospholipid (PL) profiles have been associated to disease and specific lipids may be involved in the onset evolution cancer; yet, analysis PL using mass spectrometry (MS) breast cancer cells is a novel approach. Previously, we reported lipidomic PLs from mouse mammary epithelial off-line thin layer chromatography (TLC)-MS, where several changes profile were found with degree malignancy cells. In present study, has extended human cell lines (MCF10A, T47-D, MDA-MB-231), TLC-MS,...

In familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy, TTR (transthyretin) variants are deposited as amyloid fibrils. It is thought that this process involves tetramer dissociation, which leads to partially unfolded monomers aggregate and polymerize into This can be counteracted by stabilization of the tetramer. Several small compounds, such diclofenac, diflunisal flufenamic acid, have been reported bind in vitro, T4 (thyroxine) binding channel runs through tetramer, consequently considered stabilize TTR....

The identification of specific biomarkers provides opportunities to develop early diagnostic parameters, monitor disease progression, and test drug efficiency in clinical trials. We previously demonstrated that familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP) related the abnormal extracellular tissue deposition mutant transthyretin (TTR), inflammatory apoptotic pathways are triggered presymptomatic stages disease, when nonfibrillar TTR deposits present. In present work, better define for future...

Abstract Background Nosocomial sepsis is a major healthcare issue, but there are few data on estimates of its attributable mortality. We aimed to estimate mortality fraction (AF) due nosocomial sepsis. Methods Matched 1:1 case–control study in 37 hospitals Brazil. Hospitalized patients participating were included. Cases hospital non-survivors and controls survivors, which matched by admission type date discharge. Exposure was defined as occurrence sepsis, antibiotic prescription plus...

Este estudo explora o potencial terapêutico das células-tronco na regeneração miocárdica após infarto agudo do miocárdio, com ênfase nos desfechos clínicos e funcionais observados em pacientes afetados. A terapia células-tronco, especial as derivadas da medula óssea cardíacas, emerge como uma alternativa promissora recuperação tecido cardíaco danificado. No entanto, a variabilidade resultados falta de uniformidade protocolos terapêuticos revelam necessidade estudos adicionais que aprofundem...

The paediatric oncology field still faces significant challenges, despite the substantial progress in childhood cancer diagnosis and treatment. Not only terms of incidence mortality rate reduction but also patients, their support system (e.g. family, school staff) survivors’ well-being. use innovation has provided new forms to community. As these solutions continue emerge it is necessary test validate them based on end-users’ specific needs. In this context, article shares ongoing work...
