Lung-resident memory B cells (BRM cells) are elicited after influenza infections of mice, but connections to other pathogens and hosts — as well their functional significance have yet be determined. We postulate that BRM core components lung immunity. To test this, we examined whether by the respiratory pathogen pneumococcus, present in humans, important pneumonia defense. Lungs mice had recovered from pneumococcal did not contain organized tertiary lymphoid organs, plasma noncirculating...
Abstract Barrier tissues are populated by functionally plastic CD4 + resident memory T (T RM ) cells. Whether the barrier epithelium regulates cell locations, plasticity and activities remains unclear. Here we report that lung epithelial cells, including distinct surfactant protein C (SPC) low MHC high function as anatomically-segregated temporally-dynamic antigen presenting In vivo ablation of MHC-II results in altered localization Recurrent encounters with cognate absence leads cells to...
As neoplasias mamárias correspondem ao tipo de neoplasia diagnosticada com maior frequência dentro da clínica animais companhia. O presente estudo objetivou o levantamento prontuários no sistema do Hospital Veterinário UNIUBE (HVU), cadelas que foram atendidas mamária entre os anos 2014 a 2017. Os dados obtidos submetidos à análise estatística, e por meio desta, observou-se as mamas mais acometidas inguinais (14,08%) abdominais (7,28%), totalizando 29/206 15/206, respectivamente. No total,...
Community-acquired pneumonia is a widespread disease with significant morbidity and mortality. Alveolar macrophages are tissue-resident lung cells that play crucial role in innate immunity against bacteria cause pneumonia. We hypothesized alveolar display adaptive characteristics after resolution of bacterial studied mice 1 to 6 months self-limiting infections Streptococcus pneumoniae, the most common macrophages, but not other myeloid cells, recovered from showed long-term modifications...
Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) is a safe alternative to conventional open pancreatectomy, with advantages that include smaller incisions, less pain, and shorter postoperative recovery. Despite these apparent advantages, however, uptake of the procedure has been slow, only handful series published.All LDPs performed in Brisbane, Australia, over 10-year period (May 1996 June 2006) were retrospectively reviewed.Forty-six consecutive performed. A variety lesions resected, including...
Our aim was to determine if fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) could be correlated with a pathological response in patients esophageal adenocarcinoma receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy and/or chemoradiation therapy. Patients resectable, histologically proven of the esophagus were entered study. Preoperative comprised two cycles cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil. Radiation therapy commenced second cycle on day 22. FDG-PET images obtained pre-treatment completion intended...
A anestesia em aves apresenta desafios únicos devido à sua fisiologia particular. Este estudo, uma revisão de literatura, investiga a intravenosa aves, abordando fármacos, doses, eficácia e efeitos adversos, com o objetivo otimizar protocolos anestésicos aprimorar bem-estar aviário. pesquisa considerou artigos publicados entre 1990 2024, indexados bases dados como PubMed, BSV Veterinária, Google Scholar, Science Direct Springer Open. identificou propofol alfaxalona os fármacos intravenosos...
The role of mesenchymal cells during respiratory infection is not well defined, including whether, which, and how the different types respond. We collected all from lung single-cell suspensions mice that were naïve (after receiving only saline vehicle), pneumonic intratracheal instillation pneumococcus 24 hours previously), or resolved non-lethal pneumococcal infections 6 weeks previously) performed RNA sequencing. Cells clustered into five well-separated groups based on their...
In Brief Objective: The authors report the recurrence pattern of esophageal cancer after thoracoscopic-assisted esophagectomy (TAE), comparing it to open surgery and identify prognostic factors for recurrence. Summary Background Data: To improve long-term survival radical has been proposed increasingly, however, recurrent disease remains a problem. Opinion is divided as adequacy resection possible using minimally invasive techniques with concerns that there may be an increased incidence in...
Recovery from pneumococcal pneumonia remodels the pool of alveolar macrophages so that they exhibit new surface marker profiles, transcriptomes, metabolomes, and responses to infection. Mechanisms mediating macrophage phenotypes after have not been delineated. IFN-γ its receptor on were essential for certain, but all, aspects remodeled phenotype. was produced by CD4+ T cells plus other cells, cell depletion did prevent remodeling. In mice infected or recovering pneumococcus, monocytes...
Abstract Background Approximately 25 per cent of patients with oesophageal cancer who undergo neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy have no evidence tumour in the resected specimen (complete pathological response). Those do not respond a poor 5-year survival compared complete responders, regardless whether or they surgery. Selecting for surgery only those response to therapy has potential improve overall as well rationalize management non-responders. This study assessed accuracy oesophagogastroscopy...
Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) as a definitive treatment for esophageal cancer, is being used with increasing frequency and result, surgeons will be required to assess more patients who have residual or recurrent local malignancy. This article aimed outcomes after esophagectomy following CRT (dCRT) compare any difference between them had preoperative neoadjuvant (nCRT) using similar regimen of chemotherapy. From prospective database the details resection nCRT dCRT were analyzed. The main...
Between 1993 and 2001, 106 patients with esophageal cancer were reviewed at a multidisciplinary clinic treated palliative intent by chemoradiation therapy. This study assesses the benefit on dysphagia documents toxicity of this treatment. The population comprised 72 men 34 women median age 69 years. Patients radiation dose 35 Gy in 15 fractions concurrent single course 5 FU-based chemotherapy. Dysphagia was measured beginning completion treatment monthly intervals until death, using modified...
The recovery of sperm from the epididymal cauda may be last chance to obtain genetic material when sudden death or serious injuries occur in valuable stallions. However, lack technical knowledge regarding storage and transportation epididymis often prevents preservation sperm. Therefore, aim this study was compare parameters obtained immediately after orchiectomy with recovered at different times 5°C room temperature (RT). For that, 48 stallions breeds were used. In group 1 (control group),...
Neutrophils are capable of extruding neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), a network granule proteins and chromatin material, upon activation. NETs provide defense against microbes, but histones in can also induce cytotoxicity activate inflammatory responses. The relevance to bacterial pneumonias is beginning be defined. In the present study, we found that concentration citrullinated histone H3, component NETs, was elevated bronchoalveolar lavage fluid recovered from mice with diverse...

Blood samples were collected for measurement taken from uterine horn contra lateral corpus luteum 16 at days 0 (ovulation), 5, 9, 13 19 Immunostaining evaluation ER PR glandular epithelium stroma performed two methods: positive nuclei counting staining intensity nuclei....
This study evaluated whether pentoxifylline (PTX) present in the flushing extender influenced function of equine epididymal spermatozoa after recovery and thawing. For this experiment, 58 testicles from 29 Brazilian Jumping Horses were used. Cauda epididymides each stallion separated flushed with a skim milk extender, or without 7.18 mM PTX then subjected to freezing process. Samples containing showed significant increase total motility, progressive straight line velocity, curvilinear...
