25. Glicogênio sintase quinase3B e proteína precursora do amilóide em plaquetas de indivíduos com comprometimento cognitivo leve e doença de Alzheimer / Glycogen synthase kinase 3B and amyloid precursor protein in adults platelets with cognitive impairment and Alzheimers disease
Alzheimers disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive decline of memory and other cognitive functions, affecting mainly elderly. The abnormal metabolism of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and protein TAU hyperphosphorylation are cellular hallmarks of this disease. Glycogen synthase kinase 3B (GSK3B) is an enzyme highly expressed

26. Assessment of T-SPOT-TB test for the diagnosis of latent tuberculosis infection in patients with psoriasis / Avaliação do teste T-SPOT.TB no diagnóstico de infecção tuberculosa latente em pacientes com psoríase
Introduction: The therapy for psoriasis was modified by the introduction of immunebiological products that allow better disease control and better quality of life for patients, but promotes increased risk forf latent tuberculosis, requiring diagnosis shortly before its establishment. Purpose: To assess the performance of T-SPOT.TB test for the diagnosis of l

27. Metallo-β-lactamase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa in two hospitals from southern Brazil
This study determined the prevalence of metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa in two hospitals located in the Southern part of Brazil and compare the performance of two different phenotypic tests. Thirty-one non-repetitive Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from various clinical samples from patients admitted to two hospitals located in Ri

28. Avaliação da atividade de metaloproteinases e serinoproteinases na saliva de pacientes com doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica. / Evaluation of the activity of metaloproteinases and serinoproteinases in the saliva of patients with pulmonary illness obstrutiva chronicle. / Evaluation of the activity of metaloproteinases and serinoproteinases in the saliva of patients with pulmonary illness obstrutiva chronicle. / Avaliação da atividade de metaloproteinases e serinoproteinases na saliva de pacientes com doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica.
The present study was conducted to evaluate the activity of enzymatic components of saliva and possible correlations with clinical parameters in patients with COPD. The sample consisted of 30 individuals, 20 individuals with COPD and 10 controls. The clinical parameters of each individual were obtained by spirometry and 6 minute walk distance. Enzyme activit

30. Estudo complementar da glicose-6-fosfato desidrogenase eritrocitária do marsupial brasileiro Didelphis marsupialis / Complementary study of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase erythrocyte of brazilian marsupial Didelphis marsupialis
Sabe-se que a atividade da glicose-6-fosfato desidrogenase eritrocitária do marsupial brasileiro Didelphis marsupialis é cerca de 15 a 20 vezes a encontrada nos eritrócitos humanos. Pretendendo-se investigar se esta hiperatividade também se encontra ou não aumentada nas outras enzimas eritrocitárias, levou-se a efeito a dosagem das atividades das enzim

31. Relevance of anti-HLA monitoring after kidney transplantation: Clinical and anatomopathological study / Relevância da monitorização dos anticorpos anti-HLA após o transplante renal: estudo clínico e anatomopatológico
INTRODUCTION: The aim was to follow prospectively anti-HLA antibodies (Abs) after kidney transplantation and to evaluate their association with acute rejection episodes, C4d staining and graft survival. METHODS: We analyzed 926 sera from 111 transplanted patients until graft lost or during 1 year posttransplant. The antibodies were analyzed using Panel React

32. Comparative evaluation of different immunoassays for the detection of Taenia solium cysticercosis in swine with low parasite burden
Seven swine were experimentally infected with Taenia solium eggs and blood samples from each animal were periodically collected. At the end of the experiment (t140) the animals did not show clinical aspects of cysticercosis or parasites in tongue inspection. All animals were slaughtered and cut into thin slices in searching for cysts. The number of cysts fou

33. Pesquisa de anticorpos anti-HLA classe I e II em pacientes submetidos ao transplante renal / Anti HLA antibodies in renal transplanted patients
This prospective study evaluates the seric levels and anti-HLA antibodies? specificities of kidney receptor from dead donor, besides to esteem its influence in the etiology and its severity in the rejection crises. From June 2004 to August 2006, 40 transplanted kidney receptors had been analyzed with negative crossed test before of transplant and followed, c

34. Production, characterization, and application of antibodies against heat-labile type-I toxin for detection of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Strains of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are responsible for significant rates of morbidity and mortality among children, particularly in developing countries. The majority of clinical and public health laboratories are capable of isolating and identifying Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter, and Escherichia coli O157:H7 from stool samples, but ETE

35. Cytosine arabinoside-metabolizing enzyme genes are underexpressed in children with MLL gene-rearranged acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (IALL) is characterized by mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene rearrangements, unique gene expression profiles, poor prognosis, and drug resistance. One exception is cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) to which IALL cells seem to be more sensitive. We quantified mRNA expression of Ara-C key enzymes in leukemic lymphoblasts from 64

36. Renal involvement in visceral leishmaniasis dogs
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a zoonosis that affects both animals and man. Dogs are the etiological agent’s main reservoir. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical laboratory aspects and renal histopathology of VL dogs. Thirty-four symptomatic (case) and 17 asymptomatic (control) VL seropositive dogs of different breeds, sexes, and ages from T
