Proteína 3 contendo um domínio NACHT, porção C-terminal rica em repetições de leucina e de domínio pirina e LL-37: valor prognóstico de novos biomarcadores em pneumonia adquirida na comunidade

J. bras. pneumol; 45 (4), 2019
RESUMO Objetivo Este estudo teve como objetivo determinar os níveis séricos de proteína 3 contendo um domínio NACHT, porção C-terminal rica em repetições de leucina e de domínio pirina (NLRP3) e catelicidina LL-37, bem como investigar sua importância prognóstica em pneumonia adquirida na comu...

Regulação da expressão de pioverdina dependente de contato em pseudomonas aeruginosa

A gama-proteobactéria Pseudomonas aeruginosa é um patógeno oportunista humano frequentemente associado a pacientes com queimadura grave e aos portadores de fibrose cística. O estabelecimento de infecção depende de uma série de fatores que contribuem para a virulência deste patógeno, dentre eles ...

PEGylation strategy to the development of analytical and therapeutic proteins

Protein PEGylation is the covalent bonding of polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymers to amino acid residues of the protein and it is one of the most promising techniques for improving the therapeutic effect of biopharmaceuticals and long-term stability of protein-based biosensors. This chemical modification ...

Proteomic analysis of the acquired enamel pellicle formed on human and bovine tooth: a study using the Bauru in situ pellicle model (BISPM)

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract The acquired enamel pellicle (AEP) is an organic film, bacteria-free, formed in vivo as a result of the selective adsorption of salivary proteins and glycoproteins to the solid surfaces exposed to the oral environment. Objective: This study aimed to compare the proteomic profile of AEP formed in...

Trypanosoma cruzi: analysis of two different strains after piplartine treatment

Braz. j. infect. dis; 22 (3), 2018
ABSTRACT The hemoflagellate protozoan, Trypanosoma cruzi, mainly transmitted by triatomine insects through blood transfusion or from mother-to-child, causes Chagas' disease. This is a serious parasitic disease that occurs in Latin America, with considerable social and economic impact. Nifurtimox and benz...

Harvesting Season and Botanical Origin Interferes in Production and Nutritional Composition of Bee Pollen

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 90 (1), 2018
ABSTRACT We aimed to evaluate the frequency of bee pollen production, its botanical origin and chemical composition when collected in different seasons. Our results indicate that higher proteins (22.80 ± 3.09%) and flavonoids (2789.87 ± 1396.00 μg 100g-1) levels were obtained in the winter season,...

The Effect of Ferrous Nano-oxide Particles on Physiological Traits and Nutritional Compounds of Soybean ( Glycine max L) Seed

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 90 (1), 2018
ABSTRACT Soybean (Glycine max L.) seed contains amounts of protein, lipid, carbohydrate and mineral elements, which protein and lipid have been known as a main part for soybean's trade value. In this study, in order to investigate the effect of ferrous nano-oxide particles on nutritional compounds of soy...

Concentrado proteico de arroz na alimentação do jundiá (Rhamdia quelen)

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a inclusão do concentrado proteico da destilação de etanol obtido de arroz (CPA) na alimentação do jundiá. Trezentos e setenta e cinco peixes foram distribuídos em sistema de recirculação de água com 15 caixas (125L). Foram testadas três dietas (37% ...

Low-protein diet does not alter reproductive, biochemical, and hematological parameters in pregnant Wistar rats

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 51 (6), 2018
The aim of this study was to investigate the reproductive, biochemical, and hematological outcomes of pregnant rats exposed to protein restriction. Wistar rat dams were fed a control normal-protein (NP, 17% protein, n=8) or a low-protein (LP, 8% protein, n=14) diet from the 1st to the 20th day of pregnan...
