Uso da associação entre hidroxiapatita e plasma rico em plaqueta no tratamento de uma não união óssea de rádio e ulna em um cão - relato de caso

A não união óssea é uma complicação ortopédica que ocorre normalmente devido à instabilidade da fratura em decorrência de uma escolha de fixação inadequada ou inapropriada, suprimento sanguíneo deficiente, osteomielite e afastamento excessivo dos fragmentos; sendo mais comumente em cães de r...

mRNAs biomarker related to the control of proliferation and cell death in HepG2/C3A spheroid and monolayer cultures treated with piperlongumine

Appl. cancer res; 40 (), 2020
Background: Cell culture (spheroid and 2D monolayer cultures) is an essential tool in drug discovery. Piperlongumine (PLN), a naturally occurring alkaloid present in the long pepper (Piper longum), has been implicated in the regulation of GSTP1 activity. In vitro treatment of cancer cells with PLN increa...

Resumen Introducción: El jabón para el aseo cutáneo es de empleo común entre la población, sin embargo, es posible que cause daño a las células de la piel y modifique la barrera cutánea. Objetivo: Determinar el efecto citotóxico de los jabones en queratinocitos cultivados in vitro y correlacio...

Impact of maternal exposure to wood smoke pollution on fetal lung morphology in a rat model

Int. j. morphol; 38 (5), 2020
SUMMARY: Residential heating with wood is an important source of ambient air pollution. Evidence links air pollution to serious health effects such as respiratory and cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. We hypothesized that prenatal exposure to wood smoke pollution causes morphological changes in the...

Qualitative and quantitative ultrastructural analysis of the mitochondria from adrenal gland cortex under the action of viperidae family snake venoms

Int. j. morphol; 38 (5), 2020
SUMMARY: The Viperidae venoms are composed of a mixture of constituents with enzymatic and non-enzymatic actions, which act on ultrastructural components of cells and tissues. Here, the number of mitochondria, mitochondrial area and the number of mitochondrial cristae from adrenal glands cortex treated w...

Effects of Corchorus olitorius and protacatechuic acid on diabetic rat testis tissue

Int. j. morphol; 38 (5), 2020
SUMMARY: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Protocatechuic acid and Corchorus olitorius on streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rat testis tissue. Randomly selected Wistar Albino rats were divided into five groups as; Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Mellitus treated with Corchorus Olitor...

Exposure to wood smoke pollution during pre-gestational period of rat has effects on placenta volume and fetus size

Int. j. morphol; 38 (5), 2020
SUMMARY: Studies in humans showed that prenatal exposure to urban air pollution (AP) influences fetal development, and increases the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes and some diseases in postnatal life. However, most of these were performed in environments where the main source of environmental pa...

Graft application and dexamethasone treatment influences new bone formation in rat tibial bone defects

Int. j. morphol; 38 (5), 2020
SUMMARY: The objective of this study were bone defect complications that occur due to traumas or infections. Bone grafts are required to provide support, fill gaps and improve biological repair in skeletal damage. Dexamethasone plays role in calcium signaling modulation and used in diseases. Aim of this ...
