Neuroprotective Potential of a Novel Soluble Guanylate Cyclase Stimulator the Riociguat Alone or in a Combination Manner with Resveratrol in Experimental Stroke Model in Rats

Int. j. morphol; 42 (4), 2024
SUMMARY: In this study we aimed to examine the effect of novel vasodilatory drug Riociguat co-administration along resveratrol to recover neurodegeneration in experimental stroke injury. For that purpose, thirty-five adult female rats were divided into five groups (Control, MCAO, MCAO + R, MCAO + BAY, MC...

Histological and Ultrastructural Changes in Lungs One Year Post Asymptomatic or Mild SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Evaluating the Potential for Active Virus Presence

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Prior research on post-COVID-19 or long COVID primarily focused on the presence of SARS-CoV-2 mostly in symptomatic patients. This study aimed to investigate the persistence of SARS-CoV-2 after 1 year of asymptomatic or mild COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 infected and control K18-hACE2 transgenic mice (n=...

Immunohistochemistry and next-generation sequencing for NTRK fusion detection in differentiated thyroid cancer of children, adolescents and young adults

Braz. J. Oncol; 20 (), 2024
INTRODUCTION: Pan-TRK immunohistochemistry staining can assess the protein expression from NTRK gene fusions. A little is known about its utility in differentiated thyroid cancer samples from children, adolescents, and young adults patients. Objective: Investigate pan-TRK immunohistochemistry sensitivity...

Neural and Neural Crest-Derived Stem Cell Distribution in the Adult Human Dental Pulp

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: Despite comprehensive studies and reports about the properties of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) in vitro, we still need to confirm whether these in vitro characteristics coincide with the nature of DPSCs in situ. The anatomical location of DPSCs populations in the dental pulp has yet to be inve...

Effective Inhibition of TNFalpha/mTOR Axis-Mediated Liver Inflammation and Fibrosis Induced by TAA Using a Combination of Metformin and Resveratrol in Association with the Inhibition of the Profibrotic Gene and Protein Expression

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: The response of the immune system to harmful stimuli leads to inflammation, and the adverse effects of the toxic hepatitis chemical, thioacetamide (TAA) on the human body are well documented. This article investigated the degree of protection provided by the combined pleotropic drug, metformin (...
