15. Response to different benznidazole doses in animal models of chronic phase Chagas disease: a critical review
Abstract Chagas disease is a protozoan infection that was identified over a century ago. No drugs are available to treat the indeterminate and determinate chronic phases of the disease. Success of a drug design is dependent on correct biological evaluation. Concerning new drug designs for Chagas disease, it is essential to first identify the most effective,

18. Role of a GenoType MTBDRplus line probe assay in early detection of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis at a Brazilian reference center
Resistance to Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a reality worldwide, and its diagnosis continues to be difficult and time consuming. To face this challenge, the World Health Organization has recommended the use of rapid molecular tests. We evaluated the routine use (once a week) of a line probe assay (Genotype MTBDRplus) for early diagnosis of resistance and for

21. Cellular and molecular studies of the effects of a selective COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib in the cardiac cell line H9c2 and their correlation with death mechanisms
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, and evidence indicates a correlation between the inflammatory process and cardiac dysfunction. Selective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme are not recommended for long-term use because of potentially severe side effects to the heart. Considering this and the frequent prescrib

22. Monitoração terapêutica do bussulfano oral, após uso de dose teste e durante condicionamento, em pacientes submetidos a transplante alogênico de células-tronco hematopoiéticas / Therapeutic monitoring of oral busulfan, after the use of test dose and during conditioning regimen, in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Busulfan is an alkylating agent, used for conditioning patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It presents narrow therapeutic range and high variability in pharmacokinetics among patients and doses in the same patient. High plasma concentrations (>1000 ng mL-1) have been related to toxicity, such as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome

23. SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF COMPOUNDS FORMED BETWEEN CISPLATINUM AND GLUTATHIONE OR PENICILLAMINE LIGANDS / SÍNTESE E CARACTERIZAÇÃO DE COMPOSTOS FORMADOS ENTRE A CISPLATINA E OS LIGANTES GLUTATIONA OU PENICILAMINA
Cisplatinum is considered an important chemotherapeutic drug used against some kinds of cancer. However, the use of this drug may cause side effects such as ototoxicity, neurotoxicity and, mainly, nephrotoxicity. This fact has been related to the interaction of cisplatinum with biomolecules containing sulfur, such as proteins and amino acids. To promote the
