Background and objectives Ultra-processed food products (UPF) have been associated with numerous non-communicable diseases. Despite this, the addictive nature of UPF, aggressive marketing strategies used to promote them, has created a strong emotional connection between UPF consumers, supports their increasing global consumption. In view link that consumers often modulating reactions (by using such as textual warnings) is important in changing consumers’ behavior. Since emotions are better...
The objective of the present study was to characterize essential oil Myrciaria tenella (MTEO) leaves, determine effects distillation time (1 5 h), and evaluate its action on acute pain inflammation both in vivo vitro. MTEO obtained by hydrodistillation for 4 h 36 compounds were detected, mainly consisting hydrocarbon terpenes such as β-pinene (21.46%), α-pinene (19.43%), E-caryophyllene (10.89%) aromadendrene (9.17%). A high yield α-pinene/β-pinene-rich after only 2 extraction. For...
Abstract Ochoterenatrema Caballero, 1943 is a genus of lecithodendriid digeneans that prior to this study included 8 species parasitic in bats the Western Hemisphere. Species possess unique morphological feature form pseudogonotyl on sinistral side ventral sucker. In study, we describe 2 new from Ecuador. The are readily differentiated their congeners by combination characters, including distribution vitelline follicles, length oesophagus, sucker ratio and body shape, among other features....
Ouratea species are used for the treatment of inflammation-related diseases such as rheumatism and arthritic disorders. The genus is a rich source flavonoids bioflavonoids this reason we evaluated effects biflavonoid fractions from leaves O. hexasperma (OHME) ferruginea (OFME) in vivo model complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA)-induced arthritis vitro oxidative stress cellular viability. CFA-induced rats was followed by paw volume, articular incapacitation Randall-selitto models, well...
Allintoshius Chitwood, 1937 is the only genus of family Ornithostrongylidae (Travassos, 1937) Durette-Desset and Chabaud, 1981 that parasitizes bats. Currently, there are 10 valid species in genus, which 3 were described from Brazil. This study describes a new records first occurrence nematode this parasitizing Artibeus lituratus (Olfers). gomesae n. sp. characterized by having anterior region coiled, cephalic vesicle with cuticular dilation striated transversely, claviform esophagus....
Pain is responsible for inducing physical and mental stress, interfering negatively in patients' quality of life. Classic analgesic drugs, such as opioids non-steroidal anti-inflammatory are known their wide range adverse effects, making it important to develop new drugs. Thus, this study aimed analyse the action hybrid compound cis- (±) -acetate 4-chloro-6- (naphthalene-1-yl) -tetrahydro-2h-pyran -2-yl) methyl2- (2- [2,6-dichlorophenylamine] phenyl (LS19) under acute nociceptive conditions,...
Evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity in vivo and vitro of cis-(±)-acetate 4-chloro-6-(naphtalene-1-yl)-tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl) methyl 2-(2-(2,6-diclorofenylamine) phenyl (LS19). Male Swiss mice were analyzed paw edema, ear air pouch tests, COX inhibition, cytotoxicity evaluation, cytokine nitric oxide determination tests. The compound showed effect on carrageenan- bradykinin-induced edema capsaicin-induced In addition, was able to inhibit leukocyte migration decrease levels...
Bats have a wide diversity of digeneans; however, even with the recent increased interest in studies parasites on these hosts, there are no data microscopic alterations this host-parasite interaction. The present work characterizes and compares histological aspects liver, gallbladder, intestine non-parasitized parasitized Myotis nigricans by digeneans. Ten specimens collected an urban area Western Amazonia were analyzed for parasites. digeneans removed from hosts identified. Tissue samples...
Rhipicephalus sanguineus e um carrapato com ciclo de vida trioxeno, ou seja, apresenta sua fase parasitaria em tres hospedeiros. A utilizacao larga escala dos produtos quimicos comerciais, para controle ectoparasitas acarretam maleficios aos organismos parasitados, ao homem ambiente. Dentro metodos alternativos planejamento do artropodes, os liquens uma delas. Com o objetivo avaliar a atividade mesmos, houve extracao principios ativos coletados, nas adjacencias municipio Imperatriz,...
The use of chemicals, in action against ectoparasites comes swelled Brazil. dependence these brings various environmental impacts and a need for greater concentration products that can result death to insect, mites or ticks. Within the planning alternative methods control arthropods, lichens are one them. In order evaluate activity same, there was extraction active principles collected vicinity city Imperatriz, Maranhão. Using organic reagents extracts obtained later arthropods. Three tests...
