Little is known about the relevance of lesion in neural circuits reported to be associated with major depressive disorder. We investigated the association between lesion stroke size in the limbic-cortical-striatal-pallidal-thalamic (LCSPT) circuit and incidence of major depressive episode (MDE).We enrolled 68 patients with first-ever ischemic stroke and no history of major depressive disorder. Neurological and psychiatric examinations were performed at three time-points. We diagnosed major depressive ...

O principal fator limitante à produção de mudas enxertadas de maracujazeiro é o elevado tempo para a sua formação. Assim, objetivou-se avaliar o efeito de reguladores vegetais no desenvolvimento de mudas de Passiflora alata Curtis, a serem empregadas como porta-enxerto, visando a reduzir o tempo para atingir o ponto de enxertia. O delineamento experimental empregado foi o inteiramente casualisado, em esquema fatorial 4x5 (4 reguladores vegetais x 5 concentrações), com 4 repetições de 25 plantas por ...

Vinho Verde is a unique wine, exclusively produced in the northwest region of Portugal. The production of this wine is an important component of portuguese agriculture. The aims of the present work were to make a preliminary assessment of the presence of esca and grapevine decline in the Vinho Verde region, and to check for the presence of Phaeoacremonium spp. in diseased plants. The results showed that esca and grapevine decline do occur in the Vinho Verde region, and can be widespread in this ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) pathology is characterized by neuroinflammation and demyelination. Recently, the inflammatory molecule S100B was identified in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum of MS patients. Although seen as an astrogliosis marker, lower/physiological levels of S100B are involved in oligodendrocyte differentiation/maturation. Nevertheless, increased S100B levels released upon injury may induce glial reactivity and oligodendrocyte demise, exacerbating tissue damage during an MS episode ...

Decavanadate is a polyoxometalate (POMs) that has shown extensive biological activities, including antidiabetic and anticancer activity. Importantly, vanadium-based compounds as well as antidiabetic biguanide drugs, such as metformin, have shown to exert therapeutic effects in melanoma. A combination of these agents, the metformin-decavanadate complex, was also recognized for its antidiabetic effects and recently described as a better treatment than the monotherapy with metformin enabling lower dosage ...

Through the natural evolutionary process, organisms have been improving amazing mineralized materials for a series of functions using a relatively few constituent elements. Biomineralization has been widely studied in the last years. It is important to understand how minerals are produced by organisms and also their structure and the corresponding relationship with the properties and function. Moreover, one can look at minerals as a tool that could be used to develop high performance materials, ...

Bioactive glass nanoparticles (BG-NPs), based on both ternary (SiO(2)-CaO-P(2)O(5)) and binary (SiO(2)-CaO) systems, were prepared via an optimized sol-gel method. The pH of preparation and the effect of heat treatment temperature were evaluated, as well as the effect of suppressing P in the bioactivity ability of the materials. The morphology and composition of the BG-NPs were studied using FTIR, XRD and SEM. The bioactive character of these materials was accessed in vitro by analyzing the ability ...

Abstract Diel feeding pattern and food consumption of whitemouth croaker ( Micropogonias furnieri ) were examined and related to seasonal variations in an estuarine environment. To determine diel feeding pattern whitemouth croaker were collected from the Patos Lagoon Estuary over 24 h (∼3‐h intervals) and their stomach contents were examined. Food consumption of whitemouth croaker was determined from evacuation rates estimated experimentally and in the field. The results suggested that whitemouth croaker ...

Nanocomposite hydrogels were prepared in a combinatorial way with chitosan, bioglass nanoparticles (BG-NPs) and distinct amounts of crosslinker (genipin), in a total of 30 formulations. Such miniaturized hydrogels were prepared by dispensing the precursor solutions in wettable spots previously patterned onto superhydrophobic surfaces. The chips were used as platforms to analyze the biomaterials on-chip both for mechanical/viscoelastic and cell-biomaterial interactions. We adapted a mechanical dynamic ...

Tons of sludge is produced daily in sewage treatment plants of large cities, causing an enormous disposal problem. Because recycling has been proposed to mitigate the situation, the potential adverse health effects of the sludge should be verified before that policy is undertaken.
