O processo de envelhecimento é uma experiência heterogênea, ocorrendo de maneiras distintas para os indivíduos a partir do contexto em que estão inseridos. Dessa forma, pensarem longevidade associada à qualidade de vida remete à compreensão da necessidade de investimento e...
Abstract Background Current evidence suggests that upregulation of polyamines system plays a role both in cognitive deficit and synaptic loss observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Objective The aim of this study was to determine the plasmatic concentration of polyamines in mild cognitive impairment (...
El inicio precoz del tratamiento con antiagregantes plaquetarios es considerado el estándar de cuidado para pacientes con accidente cerebrovascular isquémico agudo. Distintos esquemas de antiagregación se han comparado con resultados que sugieren que la combinación de múltiples antiagregantes se aso...
ABSTRACT Objective. To determine egg production in laying hens treated with oligofructose from agave. Materials and methods. Eighteen weeks old Hy-line W-36 hens (n = 300) were distributed randomly into 3 treatment groups: no feed supplementation (control) or feed supplementation with 0.1% of 0.2% olig...

Background: Ornithine decarboxylase antizyme 1 (OAZ1) is an important regulator of polyamine synthesis and uptake. Our previous studies indicated that high OAZ1 expression in the ovaries of laying geese is responsible for poor egg production. In the present study, the molecular characterization of goose ...
Background: Polyamines present in human body are frequently considered as markers of occurrence of cancer.
Therefore, the availability of simple and efficient method for determination of their level in body liquids and tissues
is of some interest. Methods: Supported liquid membrane technology coupled wit...
