1. BACTERIAL NANOCELLULOSE BIOMEMBRANE AS A SUPPORT FOR HUMAN INSULIN AIMING AT TRANSDERMAL PERMEATION
Production of bacterial nanocellulose was pursued as a matrix system for the stabilization of human insulin. The biomembranes produced by Gluconacetobacter hansenii were washed with 2% aqueous sodium dodecylsulfate solution, rinsed with ultrapure water and immersed in 1 mol L-1 NaOH aqueous solution at 60 °C for 90 min until neutralization. For the insulin

2. The level of environmental noise affects the physiological performance of Glycine max under water deficit
Plants in natural environments are subjected to a multitude of environmental cues. However, studies addressing physiological analyzes are usually focused on the isolation of a stress factor, making it difficult to understand plants behavior in their extremely complex natural environments. Herein, we analyzed how environmental variability (noise) may influenc

3. Biomembrana de quitosana-alginato na cicatrização de úlceras cutâneas em ratos. / Chitosan-alginate biomembrane on wound healing in rats.
Chronic wounds require a long treatment time, resulting in high-cost medical care. Therefore, the search for new natural therapeutic healing substances, non-toxic and easy access to population has gained importance in recent years. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of chitosan-alginate biomembrane on wound healing in rats. Two excis

4. Estudo de membranas eritrocitárias resistentes a detergentes da série éter de polioxietileno (Brij)
A visão atual sobre membranas biológicas abarca descrições cada vez mais complexas devido, principalmente, à descoberta de novos papéis atribuídos aos lipídios e sua heterogeneidade. Em particular a associação de esfingolipídios e colesterol, acrescida de proteínas específicas, constitui a base da formação de domínios membranares conhecidos c

5. The inflammatory stimulus of a natural latex biomembrane improves healing in mice
The aim of the present study was to compare healing obtained with biomembranes with the natural healing process (sham) using biochemical and immunohistological assays. C57BL/6 mice were divided into 4 groups of 15 mice each and received different subcutaneous implants: natural latex biomembrane (NLB), denatured latex (DL), expanded polytetrafluorethylene (eP

6. Estudos da dinâmica estrutural da proteína ligante de cálcio S100A12 humana e da lisozima T4 / Structural dynamics studies of human calcium binding protein S100A12 and T4 lysozyme
The work presented here was conceived with two main objectives. The first one, more general, involved the implementation of a new methodology for the study of conformational changes in proteins, i.e., its structural dynamics. The technique of Site-directed Spin Labeling combined with Electronic Paramagnetic Resonance (SDSL-EPR) are the pillars of this new me

7. ANÁLISE NUMÉRICA E EXPERIMENTAL DA MECÂNICA DE FORMAÇÃO DE ANEURISMAS DA AORTA ABDOMINAL / NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF MECHANICS OF FORMATION OF ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSMS
The aim of this work is to investigate numerically and experimentally the mechanics of aortic aneurisms. The experimental part was performed at the Laboratory of Membranes and Biomembranes using silicone tubes with the geometry of the aorta under hydrostatic pressure. We investigate the behavior of the material tested and the critical pressure, this is the p

9. Angiogenic properties of natural rubber latex biomembranes and the serum fraction of Hevea brasiliensis
The angiogenic properties of natural rubber were evaluated in this work. We have used the chick chorioallantoic membrane assay (CAM) as a model to investigate the influence of the heating on biological activity in rubber membranes and in non rubber fraction as well. Results showed that natural rubber membranes can induce vascularization. It was observed that

10. Molecular dynamics of articaine in POPC membranes / Dinamica molecular de articaina em membranas POPC
We studied the interactions of articaine - a local anesthetic widely used for me- dical and odontological applications - with model membranes of POPC (palmitoyl-oleyl-phosphatidylcholine) at biological relevant conditions. We have employed molecular dynamics technique, which allowed us to investigate the system at molecular level. Firstly, we applied quantum

11. Avaliação de matrizes tridimensionais colagênicas como carreadores celulares para a bioengenharia óssea / Evaluation of three-dimensional collagenic matrices as cellular scaffolds to bone bioengineering
The therapy of bone defects constitutes one of the great challenges of the medicine and dentistry. Although autogenous is considered "gold standart", presents limitations as the necessity of second surgical site, limitation of bone availability and lack of previsibility. Tissue bioengineering appeared as a promising treatment for critical bone defects conjug

12. Protein-mediated surface structuring in biomembranes
The lipids and proteins of biomembranes exhibit highly dissimilar conformations, geometrical shapes, amphipathicity, and thermodynamic properties which constrain their two-dimensional molecular packing, electrostatics, and interaction preferences. This causes inevitable development of large local tensions that frequently relax into phase or compositional imm
