13. Combination therapy with butyrate and docosahexaenoic acid for keloid fibrogenesis: an in vitro study
Abstract: Background: A single, effective therapeutic regimen for keloids has not been established yet, and the development of novel therapeutic approaches is expected. Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, play multiple anti-inflammatory and anticancer roles via their respective mechanisms of

14. Use of Lignins from Sugarcane Bagasse for Assembling Microparticles Loaded with Azadirachta indica Extracts for Use as Neem-Based Organic Insecticides
Microcapsules of sugarcane bagasse lignin loaded with organic extracts of neem (Azadirachta indica) were prepared and evaluated as potential bioinsecticides. Lignins were extracted and modified by oxidation and acetylation reactions providing different biopolymers. Afterwards, they were characterized through several analytical techniques. The formulations we

15. The role of natural selection in human evolution – insights from Latin America
Abstract A brief introduction considering Darwin's work, the evolutionary synthesis, and the scientific biological field around the 1970s and subsequently, with the molecular revolution, was followed by selected examples of recent investigations dealing with the selection-drift controversy. The studies surveyed included the comparison between essential genes

16. Homocysteine induces glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase acetylation and apoptosis in the neuroblastoma cell line Neuro2a
High plasma levels of homocysteine (Hcy) promote the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. However, the mechanism by which Hcy mediates neurotoxicity has not been elucidated. We observed that upon incubation with Hcy, the viability of a neuroblastoma cell line Neuro2a declined in a dose-dependent manner, and apoptosis was induced within 48 h. The median

17. ESTUDO DA GLICOSILAÇÃO DO CICLO-HEXANOL COM DIFERENTES DERIVADOS DE D-GLICOSAMINA E PROMOTORES DE GLICOSILAÇÃO PELO MÉTODO DE KOENIGS-KNORR
We report herein a study on the glycosylation of cyclohexanol with four D-glucosamine-based peracetylated glycosyl chlorides bearing different substituents at C-2 and three glycosylation promoters, silver carbonate, silver triflate and mercury II chloride/mercury II oxide, by the Koenigs-Knorr method. Under the conditions studied, glycosylation was successfu

18. 17,20β-P and cortisol are the main in vitro metabolites of 17-hydroxy-progesterone produced by spermiating testes of Micropogonias furnieri (Desmarest, 1823) (Perciformes: Sciaenidae)
The aim was to investigate the major C21 steroids produced by spermiating white croaker Micropogonias furnieri (Sciaenidae) in order to establish the potential mediator of gamete maturation in males of this species. The testes steroid production at the spawning season was identified incubating the 3H-17-hydroxy-4-pregnene-3,20-dione precursor through thin la

19. Molecular Sieves Mediated Green Per-O-Acetylation of Carbohydrate Templates and Lipase Catalyzed Regioselective Alcoholysis of 2,3,5-Tri-O-Acetyl-D-Ribonolactone
The per-O-acetylation of D-ribono-1,4-lactone and representative carbohydrates through the combination of acetic anhydride and molecular sieves under solvent-free conditions is demonstrated. The use of 13X/KCl molecular sieves as the heterogeneous catalyst was found to be more efficient than the excess of pyridine normally employed in the conventional method

20. Caracterização de membranas assimétricas de acetato de celulose produzidas a partir do aproveitamento do resíduo da palha de milho para uso em ultrafiltração
Cellulose acetates (CA) with different degrees of acetylation were synthesized from cellulose extracted from corn stover. Membranes were prepared for the ultrafiltration process with pure polymers and blend form of CA utilizing a dioxane/acetone system. The membranes were characterized according to their transport properties. The blend form materials present

21. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry applied to study the radical acetylation of amino acids, peptides and proteins
Recentemente nosso grupo demostrou experimentalmente que a hipótese de produção de radical acetil em meio tamponado no sistema diacetil/peroxinitrito era possível. Diacetil é um flavorizante em alimentos, cigarros e bebidas. O peroxinitrito é encontrado na mitocôndria, e em certas condições como um processo de infeção em humanos, a concentração

22. The epigenetic modifiers 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine and trichostatin A influence adipocyte differentiation in human mesenchymal stem cells
Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation and histone modification are important in stem cell differentiation. Methylation is principally associated with transcriptional repression, and histone acetylation is correlated with an active chromatin state. We determined the effects of these epigenetic mechanisms on adipocyte differentiation in mesenchymal ste

23. Histone deacetylase inhibitors as potential treatment for spinal muscular atrophy
Histone acetylation plays an important role in regulation of transcription in eukaryotic cells by promoting a more relaxed chromatin structure necessary for transcriptional activation. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) remove acetyl groups and suppress gene expression. HDAC inhibitors (HDACIs) are a group of small molecules that promote gene transcription by chro

24. Acetilação radicalar de amino ácidos, peptídeos e nucleobases pelos sistemas biacetilo/peroxinitrito e metilglioxal/peroxinitrito / Radical acetylation of aminoacids, peptides, and nucleobases by the biacetyl or methylglyoxal/peroxynitrite systems
Biacetilo (2,3-butanediona) é um contaminante de comida e cigarro, também implicado na hepatoxicidade do álcool e em doenças pulmonares. O metilglioxal (MG), um α-oxoaldeído reativo frequentemente associado ao diabetes e envelhecimento, é produto da fragmentação oxidativa de trioses fosfato, acetona e aminoacetona. Por sua vez, peroxinitrito - u
