Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is highly prevalent and incapacitating. Here we used the Carioca High-Conditioned Freezing (CHF) rats, a previously validated animal model for GAD, to identify biomarkers and structural changes in the hippocampus that could be part of the underlying mechanisms of their high-anxiety profile. Spatial and fear memory was assessed in the Morris water maze and passive avoidance test. Serum corticosterone levels, immunofluorescence for glucocorticoid receptors (GR) in the ...

Second-hand tobacco smoke (SHS) is a major indoor pollutant that causes serious health problems for all exposed, especially children. Children are often exposed to SHS at home, due to parental or other households' or guests' smoking. This study describes Portuguese children's exposure to SHS at home (total and by Portuguese main regions). In 2010/2011, a questionnaire was applied to a sample of Portuguese children in the 4th grade (N = 3187, mean age 9.05 ± 0.7 years, 51.1% male). Descriptive analysis, ...

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has been used as an adjuvant treatment of oral infections as a minimal intervention clinical approach. Its antimicrobial efficacy was demonstrated in several studies; however, there is a lack of evidence on its cytotoxic effect on mouse fibroblasts (NIH/3T3). The aim of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxicity and apoptotic pathways of methylene blue-mediated aPDT on mouse fibroblasts. Cells were treated with 0.1 or 1.0 mg.L−1 methylene blue (MB), and 0. ...

Abstract The desired energy transition to guarantee net‐zero greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions needs to take place in every sector of the global economy. The transport sector is responsible for a large share of energy consumption and GHGs emissions while contributing to the increase in air pollution. Although new technologies are available, the use of diesel in road transport is still predominant. These new technologies, nonetheless, still present inconsistencies in their environment, economic performances ...
