Anticorpo anti-RANKL como modulador da perda óssea alveolar em periodontite experimental induzida em animais: uma revisão sistemática
Anti-RANKL antibody as alveolar bone loss modulator in experimental induced periodontitis in animals: a systematic review

A periodontite é caracterizada pela inflamação nos tecidos periodontais e consequente perda das estruturas de suporte do dente: osso alveolar, cemento e ligamento periodontal, podendo levar à perda de dentes. A homeostase do tecido ósseo é gerida fundamentalmente pela regulação da via de sinaliza...

Neurotrophic Factor Mediated Neurorestorative Effect of Pongamia pinnata Against Transient Cerebral Hypoperfusion and Reperfusion in Rats: Preliminary Histological and Molecular Level Evidence

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Stroke is the leading cause of acquired physical disability in adults and second leading cause of mortality throughout the world. Treatment strategies to curb the effects of stroke would be of great benefit. Pongamia pinnata is a recent attraction in medicine, owing to its abundant medicinal ben...

E-cadherin and NF-κB expression in the vagina after ovarian ischemia and reperfusion

Acta cir. bras; 39 (), 2024
Purpose: To investigate inflammation and cell adhesion molecules in the vagina after ovarian ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Methods: 20 Wistar albino female rats were divided into two groups: control, and IR groups. In IR group, blood flow was restricted for 2 hours for ovarian ischemia. Then, tissues...

Columbianadin ameliorates experimental acute reflux esophagitis in rats via suppression of NF-κB pathway

Acta cir. bras; 39 (), 2024
Purpose: Reflux esophagitis is a condition characterized by inflammation and irritation of the esophagus, resulting from the backflow of stomach acid and other gastric contents into the esophagus. Columbianadin is a coumarin derivative that exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. In this stud...

In vivo Gonadoprotective Effects of Myricetin on Cisplatin- Induced Testicular Damage via Suppression of TLR4/NF-kB Inflammation Pathway and Heat-Shock Response

Int. j. morphol; 41 (6), 2023
SUMMARY: The aim of this study is to reveal the gonadoprotective effects of myricetin (MYC), which has many biological properties, on cisplatin (CP)-induced testicular damage in rats. For this purpose, 40 male Wistar albino rats were divided into 4 groups as Control (group given no treatment), MYC (group...

Diacerein mitigates renal ischemia/reperfusion injury via inhibition of renal inflammation, dendritic cells maturation and apoptosis: the role of TLR4/NF-kB/NLRP3/IL-1beta signaling pathway

Int. j. morphol; 41 (2), 2023
SUMMARY: One of the reasons for acute kidney damage is renal ischemia. Nevertheless, there are limited protective and therapeutic approaches for this problem. Diacerein is an anti-inflammatory drug characterized by numerous biological activities. We aimed to determine the ameliorative impact of diacerein...

Neuro-protective effect of Linalool against spinal cord injury in rats and the mechanism involved

The current study was conducted to determine the neuroprotective role and mechanism of action of Linalool (LIN) in SCI. The SCI in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats was induced by weight-drop contusion model. Results of the suggested that LIN showed improvement in the locomo...

Over-expression of gastrin inhibits apoptosis of gastric cancer cells via reactive oxygen species and annexin A2-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction

Int. j. morphol; 41 (1), 2023
SUMMARY: Gastrin plays a vital role in the development and progression of gastric cancer (GC). Its expression is up-regulated in GC tissues and several GC cell lines. Yet, the underlying mechanism remains to be investigated. Here, we aim to investigate the role and mechanism of gastrin in GC proliferatio...

Quercetin and resveratrol are associated with the downregulation of TNFalpha/NF-kB/inos axis-mediated acute liver injury in rats induced by paracetamol poisoning

Int. j. morphol; 41 (1), 2023
SUMMARY: Paracetamol (known as acetaminophen, or APAP) poisoning causes acute liver damage that can lead to organ failure and death. We sought to determine that APAP overdose can augment tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)/ nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB)/induced nitic oxide synthase (iNOS) axis-medi...

The role of TNF-α and NFkβ in an experimental model of intestinal carcinogenesis with 1, 2-dimethyhydrazine

Acta cir. bras; 38 (), 2023
Purpose: To analyze the potential of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and factor nuclear kappa B (NF-κB) as colorectal cancer (CRC) biomarkers in an experimental model of intestinal carcinogenesis with 1,2-dimethyhydrazine (1,2-DMH). Methods: Twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into two groups: s...
