Abstract Background Plasmodium sporozoites migrate to the liver where they traverse several hepatocytes before invading one inside which will develop and multiply into thousands of merozoites. Although this constitutes an essential step malaria infection, requirements parasites in cells how use host cell for their own survival development are poorly understood. Results To gain new insights molecular host-parasite interactions that take place during we have used high-throughput microarray...
Plasmodium, the causative agent of malaria, migrates through several hepatocytes before initiating a malaria infection. We have previously shown that this process induces secretion hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) by traversed cells, which renders neighbour susceptible to The signalling initiated HGF its receptor MET has multifunctional effects on various cell types. Our results reveal major role for apoptosis protection host cells HGF/MET susceptibility Inhibition specific increase in...
ABSTRACT: The probiotic products from the dairy market have been extensively exploited as well lactose-free derivatives, suitable for lactose intolerant individuals. This research aimed to manufacture stuffed cheese with Brazilian cream and spices in three versions (traditional, lactose-free, cheese) evaluate their quality by physico-chemical microbiological analyses, Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) viability, acceptance preference assays. Physico-chemical properties of formulations were all...

ABSTRACT: Sapodilla is an original fruit from Central America that well adapted in all regions of the Brazilian territory. Despite its wide adaptation and acceptance markets, it rare to find outside tropical regions, partially because high perishability. The development alternative, simple, inexpensive methods extend conservation marketing these fruits important, osmotic dehydration one methods. main objective this study was determine water sucrose diffusion coefficients during sapodilla....
O soro de ricota é um subproduto lácteo da produção ricota, sendo reconhecido como resíduo alto caráter poluidor. Esse estudo teve por objetivo o reaproveitamento dos nutrientes do através sua utilização matéria-prima base uma bebida isotônica natural saborizada com concentrado acerola e capim-cidreira. Foram elaboradas cinco formulações: F1 (30% (SR) 40% capim-cidreira (CC)); F2 (35% 35% F3 (40% 30% F4 (45% 25% (CC)) F5 (50% 20% mantendo-se fixo a quantidade (30%) sacarose (5%). As...
Se probaron los siguientes ácidos: adipico (0,5%, 1,0% y 2,0%), fosfórico (0,03%, 0,10% 0,20%), láctico (0,20%, 2,0% 4,0%), málico tartárico 2,0%) cítrico 2,0%). Las concentraciones fueron elegidas en función de la legislación brasileña. Los ácidos que más se destacaron como inhibidores del crecimiento y/o productores aflatoxina adipico, por inhibir parcialmente el producción
