Urbanization causes many problems to human mobility, since people living in the cities tend to increase the vehicular traffic flow. City road infrastructure does not increase faster than the number of vehicles, thus causing traffic congestion in dense urban centers. Besides travel delay, vehicular traffic congestion results in serious problems to human beings (e.g., health problems due to stress), to the planet (e.g., increase in pollution) and to the economy (e.g., waste of a large amount of money ...

Obese patients are at higher risk of developing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS); however, their survival rates are also higher compared to those of similarly ill non-obese patients. We hypothesized that obesity would not only prevent lung inflammation, but also reduce remodeling in moderate endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI). Obesity was induced by early postnatal overfeeding in Wistar rats in which the litter size was reduced to 3 pups/litter (Obese, n=18); Control animals (n=18) ...

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are often used for fabrication of biocompatible and absorbable medical devices due to their high biocompatibility and biodegradability. Among them, poly (-3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and Poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) are the most studied members of the PHA family, with numerous applications, especially in the biomedical areas. Due to superior physicochemical characteristics, in biological medium, PHBV degrades at a slower rate than PHB, making the copolymer ...

Propolis has a high content of bioactive compounds, which gives it antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. However, the use of propolis in foods is limited by the sensitivity of these compounds to processing conditions and, in addition, their taste and odor are intense. Thus, microencapsulation can protect bioactive compounds and facilitate the application of propolis in foods by masking sensory attributes. The objective of this study was to produce microparticles by spray drying using different ...

Chronic degenerative endometritis (CDE) is an important cause of fertility problems in older mares. It is estimated that 30% of mares breeding are over 18 years old and the high value of their progeny encourages the use of these animals in assisted reproduction procedures. Currently, cell-based therapies are broadly used in human and veterinary regenerative medicine and have been showed a good effect on the treatment of liver fibrosis. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and ...

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to isolate, culture, and characterize mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from horse bone marrow (BM) using the techniques of flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, cytogenetics, and electron microscopy. Immunophenotypic analysis revealed the presence of MSCs with high expression of the CD90 marker, lower expression of the CD44 marker, and absent expression of the CD34 marker. In assays of differentiation, the positive response to osteogenic (OST), chondrogenic (CDG), and ...

The Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus, Gerbilinae: Muridae) is useful for prostate studies, because both males and females spontaneously develop prostatic disorders with age. Estrogens regulate prostate homeostasis via two estrogen receptors, ER alpha (ESR1) and ER beta (ESR2), but the cellular distribution and regulation of these receptors in the gerbil prostate has not been described. Both receptors were localized by immunohistochemistry in the ventral prostate of intact male and female gerbils, ...

Thus, therapies that use mesenchymal stem cells are promising because of their high capacity for self-regeneration, their low immunogenicity, and their paracrine, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, anti-apoptotic and neuroprotective ...
