Photoprotective nanoemulsions are able to attenuate skin damage from overexposure to the sun, thus avoiding the immediate effects caused by ultraviolet radiation. The global cosmetics market understands that there is a demand and greater acceptance by consumers for formulations containing natural products compatible with the skin. Consequently, there is an increasingly need to develop such products that are safe and effective. Furthermore, there is a growing interest in nanoemulsions (NE) in the ...

Natural grasslands in southern Brazil are ecosystems that are naturally adapted to grazing. Despite the productivity and ecological relevance of these ecosystems, the effects of grazing intensity on their soil quality are still underexplored. This work aimed to determine whether increasing the grazing intensity would jeopardize the soil structure in a natural highland grassland in southern Brazil. Pastures were evaluated at four pregrazing canopy heights, 0.12, 0.20, 0.28 and 0.36 m, with Andropogon ...

Freshwater is an increasingly scarce resource. Its use in the production of concrete is one important contributor to its fast depletion. Alternatively, the use of seawater for reinforced concrete production, combined with the use of glass fibre reinforced polymers (GFRP) as reinforcement, may represent an interesting solution to increase concrete sustainability. The objective of this paper is to explore this promising solution through the development of concrete compositions with seawater. Additionally, ...

Hecogenin acetate (HA) is an acetylated sapogenin that has shown potential antihyperalgesic activity, inhibiting descending pain and acting in opioid receptors. However, HA exhibits poor aqueous solubility, which may limit its application. This study aims to develop amorphous solid dispersions (ASD) using five hydrophilic polymers, to characterize them and to evaluate their antihyperalgesic activity. Physicochemical characterization was performed by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy ( ...

The role of the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) system and nutritional status was studied in 241 children from a Brazilian area endemic for visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Thirty-nine children had the active form, 20 were oligosymptomatic, 38 were asymptomatic and 144 were not infected. Serum concentrations of growth hormone (GH), total and free IGF-I and IGF binding-protein 3 (IGFBP3) were measured by radioimmunoassay. Nutritional status was evaluated by anthropometric indicators and biochemical ...

The factors determining the development or not of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) have not been completely identified, but a Leishmania-specific cellular immune response seems to play a fundamental role in the final control of infection. Few studies are available regarding the production of cytokines in the subclinical form of VL, with only the production of IFN-g and TNF-a known. The aim of the present study was to identify immunological markers for the oligosymptomatic or subclinical form of VL. A ...

The induced expression of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) controls the intracellular growth of Leishmania in infected macrophages. Histones deacetylases (HDACs) negatively regulate gene expression through the formation of complexes containing transcription factors such as NF-κB p50/50. Herein, we demonstrated the occupancy of p50/p50_HDAC1 to iNOS promoter associated with reduced levels of H3K9Ac. Remarkably, we found increased levels of HDAC1 in L. amazonensis-infected macrophages. HDAC1 upregulation ...
