Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, the causative agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), was first isolated from armadillos Amazonian region where mycosis is uncommon. In present study, we report on high incidence PCM infection in a hyperendemic disease. Four nine-banded (Dasypus novemcinctus) were captured endemic area Botucatu, Sao Paulo, Brazil, killed by manual cervical dislocation and autopsied under sterile conditions. Fragments lung, spleen, liver, mesenteric lymph nodes processed for...
Aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in the colon of carcinogen-treated rodents are considered to be earliest hallmark carcinogenesis. In present study relationship between a short-term (4 weeks) and medium-term (30 assay was assessed model carcinogenesis induced by dimethylhydrazine (DMH) rat. Six-week-old male Wistar rats were given subcutaneous injections DMH (40 mg/kg) twice week for 2 weeks killed at end 4th or 30th week. ACF scored number, distribution pattern along multiplicity 0.1%...
The fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis has been isolated from nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus) in different regions where paracoccidiodomycosis (PCM) is endemic. link between PCM and these animals provided the first valuable clue effort to elucidate ecological niche of P. brasiliensis. present study was aimed at correlating infection with local features and, if possible, presence soil Botucatu hyperendemic area PCM. In this region mean temperature ranges 14.8 25.8°C annual...
The presence of various pathogenic fungi in rather unsuspected hosts and environments has always attracted the attention scientific community. Reports on putative role animals fungal infections humans bear important consequences public health as well understanding ecology. Fungi are ubiquitous nature their great capacity for adaptation allows them to survive indeed, thrive, plants, trees other natural substrata. Nonetheless, we just beginning learn significance that these diverse habitats...
Autopsy examination is considered to be an essential element for medical auditing and teaching. Despite the significant progress in diagnostic procedures, autopsy has not always confirmed clinical diagnosis. In present study, we compared diagnosis recorded on charts with reports of 96 autopsies performed at University Teaching Hospital Faculdade de Medicina Botucatu, SP, Brazil, between 1975 1982, 156 same institution 1992 1996. The basic cause death was 77% cases. percent confirmation fell...
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the etiologic agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), most important systemic mycosis in Latin America. The armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus, has been confirmed as primary natural reservoir this fungus. Its geographic distribution similar to that human PCM. In study, virulence profiles 10 P. isolates from different armadillos and two clinical were tested an experimental hamster model. Pathogenicity was evaluated by counting cfu performing histopathological...
Phagocytic cells play an important role in nonspecific resistance to fungal infection by mediating inflammatory response and a direct fungicidal action. In this study, the functional activity of peritoneal macrophages obtained from hamsters experimentally infected with strain Pb18 Paracoccidioides brasiliensis was evaluated during 16 weeks infection. The results showed that had higher spreading ability associated increased production tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) enhanced early periods...
Linear and stereological morphometric methods were applied to the jejunal ileal mucosa of young, adult, old male Wistar rats submitted protein deficiency rehabilitation. The animals fed ad libitum a 2% casein diet during 42 days then received 20% for 30 days. Food intake, body weights, plasma concentrations recorded. In young deficient values mucosal height, surface area, volume lamina propria significantly lower than those their age controls in both jejunum ileum. adults differences less...
Translated for Antipode by Tim Clarke and Lucas Melgaço2 The role attributed to geography the possibility of a valid intervention geographers in process social transformation depend on one another result from manner which we conceptualize discipline its object. If this conceptualization is not embracing all forms relation with milieu, interventions will only be partial or functional, their effectiveness increasingly limited time. It true that, common language understanding other specialists,...
A financeirização tornou-se um dos componentes mais dinâmicos do capitalismo contemporâneo, implicando transformações expressivas na circulação global da riqueza, mas também organização territórios nacionais e vida cotidiana das populações urbanas. Os novos nexos financeiros existentes entre a urbanização brasileira agentes econômicos atingem parcelas cada vez maiores população pobre, assim como áreas menos valorizadas e/ou periféricas tecidos urbanos. No Brasil, esta conforma uma situação...
