Cigarette smoke is a complex mixture capable of triggering inflammation and oxidative damage in animals at pulmonary systemic levels. Tempol (4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) reduces tissue injury associated with vivo by mechanisms that are not completely understood. Here we evaluated the effect tempol on induced acute exposure to cigarette vivo. Male C57BL/6 mice (n = 32) were divided into 4 groups 8 each): 1) control group exposed ambient air (GC), 2) for 5 days (CSG),...
Elderly women are more susceptible to the development of chronic non-communicable diseases. Among these, diabetes mellitus (DM) and systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) stand out. This work aimed carry out an expanded study on interactions anthropometric, biochemical inflammatory parameters associated with risk severity in elderly diabetes. The involved evaluation 126 mellitus. were divided according disease (low, moderate, high very high). Anthropometric data collected by bioimpedance...
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness photobiomodulation with a 780 nm laser as an adjunct surgical treatment in regeneration bone fractures. Twenty patients diagnosed open fractures lower limbs were selected and randomly divided into two groups: control LLLT. LLLT parameter: nm, 0.04 cm 2 light beam diameter, 40 mW power, 10 s per point, 0.4 J energy, fluence J/cm irradiance 1 W/cm . evaluated data were: pain, using McGill scale, use analgesics...
Shrimp is among the most sensitizing food allergens and has been associated with many anaphylaxis reactions. However, there still a shortage of studies that enable systematic understanding this disease investigation new therapeutic approaches. This study aimed to develop experimental model shrimp allergy could evaluation prophylactic treatments. BALB/c mice were subcutaneously sensitized 100 μg proteins Litopenaeus vannamei adsorbed in 1 mg aluminum hydroxide on day 0, booster (100 µg only)...
Chagas disease, caused by the Trypanosoma cruzi, has a wide distribution in South America, and its main method of control is elimination triatomines. It presented here geographic rate natural infection T. cruzi triatomines collected evaluated from 2008 to 2013 southwest Bahia. Triatomines were captured intradomiciliary peridomiciliary areas five cities located Bahia state, identified, analyzed for presence trypanosomatids their feces. During study period number patients suspected acute...
Staphylococcus aureus infections remain associated with considerable morbidity and mortality in both hospitals the community. There is little information regarding role of ovarian hormones caused by S. aureus. The aim this study was to evaluate effects ovariectomy immune response induced aureus.Female mice BALB/c were ovariectomized (OVX) significantly reduce level hormones. We also used sham-operated animals. inoculated intraperitoneally Blood samples collected for leukocyte count bacterial...
Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compose the two major noncommunicable chronic inflammatory diseases. Physical activity has been shown as a promising complementary approach to control systemic inflammation. However, it is still unclear whether this modulation gender-dependent. The objective of study was evaluate gender-related influence physical on response biochemical profile individuals with SAH T2DM. An international questionnaire applied 376...
Obesity, aging, and physical training are factors influencing pancreatic functional morphological parameters. Aiming to clarify the impact of interaction these factors, we analyzed effect therapeutic or lifelong on body adiposity parameters aged obese rats.24 male Wistar rats were (initial age = 4 months final 14 months) randomly divided into three experimental groups (n 8/group): untrained, trained, trained. Body adiposity, plasmatic concentration immunostaining insulin, markers tissue...
Staphylococcus aureus infection may lead to the development of soft tissue damage. It has been evaluated in other researches using different animal models. In addition, inflammatory response developed by host organism facing an this pathogen analyzed and neutrophils have linked immune developed. study, we aimed compare induced intradermal with a methicillin-resistant strain (MRSA) or methicillin-susceptible (MSSA). Mice euthanasia occurred following times: 6, 24, 48 96 hours infection; cell...
Arboviral diseases are disseminated all over the world. In Brazil, they remain neglected, alerting public authorities to possible outbreaks. Over here, we report epidemiological indicators of Dengue from 2010 2015, Zika between 2015 and 2016, Chikungunya 2014 within 19 municipalities Southwestern Region Bahia, Brazil. The data were collected Brazilian national information systems (SISFAD, SINAN, IBGE) by Endemic Control Agents. analysis consisted a description vector characteristics, Home...
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a gram-negative bacterium extremely relevant in the context of public health, being involved development several diseases worldwide. The main treatment available for infections caused by E. use antibiotics. However, strains this have shown resistance to antibiotics, necessitating alternative methodologies. In scenario, Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT) emerges as an excellent viable antibiotic use. This study aimed standardize protocols based on aPDT...
A atividade física tem sido utilizada como ferramenta de auxílio para a diminuição da incidência diversos riscos, tais obesidade, desenvolvimento doenças cardiovasculares e diabetes. Além disso, ela descrita medida imunomodulatória. O exercício físico possui algumas variáveis, dentre elas frequência do intensidade mesmo. As variáveis nesse âmbito têm relacionadas diferentes efeitos na modulação resposta desenvolvida em sistemas por vezes pode estar associada ao aumento suscetibilidade...
