Taurolidina para prevenir infecciones asociadas a catéter venoso central en niños con insuficiencia intestinal: experiencia preliminar en un hospital terciario chileno

Rev. chil. infectol; 38 (1), 2021
INTRODUCCIÓN: Taurolidina es una molécula con propiedades anti-endotóxicas, antimicrobianas y anti-inflamatorias, que inhibe la adhesión bacteriana, lo que ha permitido usarla como terapia de sellado en catéter venoso central de larga duración (CVC) para prevenir infecciones del torrente sanguíneo...

Cardioprotective effect of taurine and β-alanine against cardiac disease in myocardial ischemia and reperfusion-induced rats

BACKGROUND: The present study analyzed the synergistic protective effect of β-alanine and taurine against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion. Myocardial infarct size, lipid peroxidation, and levels of glutathione peroxidase (Gpx), superoxide dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase, tumor necro...

lncRNA TUG1 promotes proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts by regulating the miR-545-3p/CNR2 axis

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (11), 2020
Osteoblast differentiation is an effective way to promote bone formation. Long non-coding RNA taurine upregulated 1 (TUG1) has been identified as a crucial modulator of multiple biological processes. This study was designed to investigate the function of TUG1 in the proliferation and differentiation of o...

Knockdown of lncRNA TUG1 inhibits hippocampal neuronal apoptosis and participates in aerobic exercise-alleviated vascular cognitive impairment

Biol. Res; 53 (), 2020
OBJECTIVES: Our previous study indicated that aerobic exercise relieves cognitive impairment in patients with vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) via regulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), but the mechanism is not yet clear. This study aimed to explore whether lncRNA taurine upregulated gen...

Taurolidina, un antiséptico para la prevención de infecciones asociadas a catéter venoso central

Rev. chil. infectol; 36 (4), 2019
Resumen Taurolidina es un antiséptico de amplio espectro usado como solución de terapia de sellado (lock therapy) en adultos y niños portadores de catéter venoso central de larga duración (CVC) para prevenir las infecciones asociadas a CVC (IACVC). No induce desarrollo de resistencia y tiene efectos...

Effects of taurine supplementation in elite swimmers performance

Motriz (Online); 24 (1), 2018
AIM: Taurine is considered a semi-essential amino acid characterized by having various physiological functions in the body that modulate mechanisms of action involved in the muscle contraction process, increased energy expenditure, insulin signaling pathway, carbohydrate metabolism, and scavenging free r...

Dietas pós-eclosão suplementadas com fontes de gordura e acrescidas de taurina e glicina sobre a morfometria intestinal e o desempenho de frangos de corte de um a 21 dias

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito do fornecimento de dietas pós-eclosão suplementadas com diferentes fontes de gordura insaturada e adicionadas ou não de taurina e glicina sobre o desempenho produtivo, a biometria e a morfometria do intestino delgado de pintos de corte de um a 21 dias de id...

Effects of taurine supplementation and swimming, associated or not, on obesity and glucose homeostasis in mice

Acta sci., Health sci; 34 (ed. esp), 2012
Studies show that physical exercise (PE) is associated with a reduced fat accumulation and increased insulin sensitivity, and taurine (TAU) improves glucose homeostasis in lean rodents. The aim in this work was evaluate the effects of supplementing TAU and practice of PE, associated or not, on obesity an...

Taurina no desenvolvimento de embriöes bovinos fecundados in vitro
Taurine on the development of in vitro fertilized bovine embryos

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito de diferentes concentraçöes de taurina no desenvolvimento de embriöes bovinos fecundados in vitro em meio de cultivo com diferentes fontes de soro. No experimento 1, zigotos (n=440) fecundados in vitro foram distribuídos aleatoriamente nos tratamentos co...
