Thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1) is a homeodomain-containing transcriptional regulator responsible for the activation of thyroid- and lung-specific genes. It has been demonstrated that its DNA binding activity is redox-regulated in vitro through the formation of dimers and oligomeric species. In this paper, we demonstrate that the redox regulation mainly involves a Cys residue (Cys87), which resides out of the DNA binding domain, belonging to the N-transactivation domain. In fact, the oxidized ...

Analysis of tumour samples by a proteomic technology, which combines two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry analysis, is a promising approach for molecular characterization of cancer. Proteomic analysis of neoplasms is usually performed on surgical material. The possibility to perform proteomic analysis on pre-operative samples might be useful for diagnostic purposes or for determination of tumour sensitivity to therapy. In this study, we report how tissues from core biopsy of ...

Dyspnea and fatigue frequently impair the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Questionnaires and scales have been used to assess limitations in ADL. The London Chest Activity of Daily Living (LCADL) scale is responsive to intervention to a higher extent when compared with other tools. However, the minimal detectable change (MDC) for this scale remains unknown. The aim of this study was to determine the MDC for functional status ...

To evaluate whether a six-minute walk distance (6MWD) of < 80% of the predicted value can predict the occurrence of acute exacerbations of COPD in patients in Brazil over a 2-year period.This was a retrospective cross-sectional study involving 50 COPD patients in Brazil. At enrollment, anthropometric data were collected and patients were assessed for pulmonary function (by spirometry) and functional exercise capacity (by the 6MWD). The patients were subsequently divided into two groups: 6MWD ≤ 80% of predicted ...

Introduction: Pulmonary rehabilitation is one of the most effective non-pharmacological management options for individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Exercise training is the cornerstone of pulmonary rehabilitation, however considerable variability exists regarding the way it is delivered across the world. It is widely accepted that efforts should be made to tailor specific therapeutic approaches to individuals' needs. This applies as much to respiratory medicine as it does ...

BACKGROUND: A normal heart rate reflects the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic autonomic nervous system. When the difference between heart rate at the end of an exercise test and after 1 min of recovery, known as the 1-min heart rate recovery, is ≤ 12 beats/min, this may indicate an abnormal delay. We sought to compare physical activity patterns and subjects9 functional status with COPD with or without delayed 1-min heart rate recovery after the 6-min walk test (6MWT). METHODS: 145 subjects ...

BACKGROUND: Different protocols for the sit-to-stand test (STS) are available for assessing functional capacity in COPD. We sought to correlate each protocol of the STS (ie, the 5-repetition [5-rep STS], the 30-s STS, and the 1-min STS) with clinical outcomes in subjects with COPD. We also aimed to compare the 3 protocols of the STS, to verify their association and agreement, and to verify whether the 3 protocols are able to predict functional exercise capacity and physical activity in daily life (PADL). METHODS: ...

The use of organic amendments is important for the sustainability of organic farming, with implications for soil organic matter turnover, nutrient cycling and greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions to the atmosphere. Here, we investigated how long-term citrus organic farming influenced carbon sequestration and GHG emissions under organic and conventional management. We assessed the effects of management systems on soil organic matter dynamics and GHG emissions, focusing on N2O direct emissions from fertilizers. ...

However, the current literature lacks information regarding some technical standards for this test. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare and to evaluate the interrater reliability between a stopwatch and video recording used as timing systems for the 4MGS in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as well as to verify the interrater reliability ...

Hemoparasites are vector-borne parasites that infect wild carnivores worldwide. Since data on hemoparasite infections in Nasua nasua from Brazil are lacking, the aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence of hemoparasites and ectoparasites in N. nasua from different areas of Brazil. Blood samples and ectoparasites from 83 N. nasua were collected in Botucatu, Palmital, and São Paulo municipalities. Samples were screened via microscopy and molecular methods to detect hemoparasites. Tissues ...

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (fructose-2,6-P2) is a potent activator of the isozyme of phosphofructokinase present in ascites tumors, and in tumors of liver and muscle. The system is likely to be significant in the maintenance of the high rate of tumor glycolysis. When fructose-2,6-P2 is measured in tumor cells immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen after being withdrawn from the abdominal cavity of the animal, the content of this metabolite is evaluated to be 3.9 ± 1.0 nmol/g fresh weight, which is three ...

Pax-8 is a member of the Pax family of transcription factors and is essential in the development of thyroid follicular cells. Pax-8 has two DNA-binding domains: the paired domain and the homeo domain. In this study, a preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of the mammalian Pax-8 paired domain in complex with the C-site of the thyroglobulin promoter was achieved. The Pax-8 paired domain was crystallized by the hanging-drop vapor-diffusion method in complex with both a blunt-ended 26 bp DNA fragment ...
