In silico genomic and proteomic analyses of three heat shock proteins (HSP70, HSP90-a, and HSP90-b) in even-toed ungulates

BACKGROUND Heat shock proteins (HSPs) play important roles in the responses to different environmental stresses. In this study, the genomic and proteomic characteristics of three HSPs (HSP70, HSP90-a and HSP90-b) in five even-toed ungulates (sheep, goats, water buffalo, Zebu cattle and cattle) were analy...

Estresse oxidativo e diminuição de HSP70 tecidual envolvidos na gênese da sepse: HSP70 como alvo terapêutico

RESUMO A sepse é uma infecção sistêmica que acarreta disfunção múltipla dos órgãos. A HSP70 é uma proteína responsiva ao estresse celular, assim como o estresse oxidativo. Esta revisão da literatura buscou investigar a HSP70 e o estresse oxidativo quanto à fisiopatologia da sepse e ao papel ...

Aqueous humor heat-shock protein 70, periostin, and irisin levels in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 83 (5), 2020
ABSTRACT Purpose: To measure humor heat-shock protein 70, periostin, and irisin levels in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome and cataract (without glaucoma), and compare them with those of patients with cataract but without pseudoexfoliation. Methods: We examined 31 eyes of 31 patients with pseud...

Caracterização do gene do choque térmico (HSP-70. 1) e sua relação com características de produção em bovinos leiteiros criados no semiárido brasileiro

Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar a diversidade genética do gene HSP-70.1 e associar os polimorfismos encontrados com a performance de vacas leiteiras das raças Holandesa, Girolando (5/8H-G) e Sindi criadas em região do semiárido brasileiro. Os polimorfismos foram identificados e avaliados pela ...

Mucosal leishmaniasis: A forgotten disease, description and identification of species in 50 Colombian cases

Biomédica (Bogotá); 39 (supl.2), 2019
Abstract Introduction: Mucosal leishmaniasis has a progressive course and can cause deformity and even mutilation in the affected areas. It is endemic in the American continent and it is mainly caused by Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis. Objective: To describe a series of mucosal leishmaniasis cases a...

Surveillance of phlebotomine fauna and Didelphis marsupialis (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) infection in an area highly endemic for visceral leishmaniasis in Colombia

Biomédica (Bogotá); 39 (2), 2019
Abstract Introduction: The study of the interaction between the parasite, the vector and the mammalian hosts, including man, allows to understand the behavior of the leishmaniases. Objective: To determine the presence of Lutzomyia species and to detect the Leishmania infection in Didelphis marsupialis ...

The expression of and preoperative correlation between heat-shock protein 70, euroscore, and lactate in patients undergoing cabg with cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract Objetive: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) improved symptoms and increased survival and quality of life in patients with coronary artery disease. However, it should be the main cause of a complex organic systemic inflammatory response that greatly contrib...

Prostaglandin A1 triggers Mayaro virus inhibition and heat shock protein 70 expression in an epithelial cell model

Abstract INTRODUCTION: The Mayaro virus (MAYV), which is an arbovirus closely related to the Chikungunya virus, causes a dengue-like acute illness that is endemic to Central and South America. We investigated the anti-MAYV activity of prostaglandin A1 (PGA1), a hormone which exhibits antiviral activity...

Effects of chromium picolinate supplementation on growth performance, small intestine morphology and antioxidant status in ducks under heat stress conditions

Int. j. morphol; 36 (1), 2018
SUMMARY: The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary supplemental chromium (Cr) on growth performance, meat quality, intestinal morphology, mucosa Hsp70 mRNA expression and antioxidant status of ducks reared under heat stress conditions. All ducks were randomly divided into three trea...
