1. Epicardial Fat Tissue Thickness and Omentin in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
Abstract Background: Although electrical and structural remodeling has been recognized to be important in the pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation, the mechanisms underlying remodeling process are unknown. There has been increasing interest in the involvement of inflammatory molecules and adipokines released from the epicardial fat tissue in the pathophys

2. Campsiandra laurifolia Reduces Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Rats with Ulcerative Colitis
Abstract Ulcerative colitis (UC) affects the mucosa and submucosa of the large intestine. One of the mechanisms involved in its etiology is oxidative stress (OS), directly involved in the inflammatory process characteristic of UC. The Campsiandra laurifolia, known as acapurana, was described as possessing antioxidant properties. We used 24 male Wistar rats,

4. CD133, a Progenitor Cell Marker, is Reduced in Nasal Polyposis and Showed Significant Correlations with TGF-β1 and IL-8
Abstract Introduction Combination of chronic inflammation and an altered tissue remodeling process are involved in the development of Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP). Studies demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells expressing the progenitor gene CD133 were involved in a significant reduction of the chronic inflammatory process in the poly

5. Tocilizumab is useful for coronavirus disease 2019 patients: the key point is timing
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: In coronavirus disease 2019, a rapidly progressive inflammatory process is considered to be the main cause of organ damage and mortality. Therefore, the importance of anti-inflammatory treatments such as tocilizumab is increasing. METHODS: A total of 107 patients who received tocilizumab between March 2020 and March 2021 were included in

6. Clinical Significance of HSCARG for Atherosclerotic Coronary Heart Disease and Reduced ROS-Oxidative Stress in in Vivo and in Vitro Models via p47phox by NF-κB Activity
ABSTRACT Introduction: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a dynamic process in which there are interactions between endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses. The aim of the present study was to investigate the function and mechanism of HSCARG in the treatment of CHD. Methods: Male apolipoprotein E/low-density lipoprotein receptor-

7. Cardioprotective Effect of Cilostazol on Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Model
Abstract Introduction: To clarify the potential protective role of cilostazol on rat myocardial cells with ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) models. Methods: The study was conducted with three groups of 10 Wistar rats (control group, rats without any coronary ischemia; sham group, rats with coronary ischemia but without cilostazol administration; and cilos

8. Mutagenic damage among bronchiectasis patients attending in the pulmonology sector of a hospital in southern Brazil
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Bronchiectasis is a chronic respiratory disease characterized by inflammation, irreversible dilation of the bronchi, and recurrent pulmonary infections, with a high morbidity and mortality rate, but is less studied from the point of view of its prevalence and associated factors not directly related to respiratory prognosis. As it is a dis

9. Association Between Lipid Profile and Clinical Manifestations in Sickle Cell Anemia: A Systematic Review
Abstract Introduction Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a genetic disease associated with frequent episodes of acute illness. Changes in the lipid profile and a chronic inflammatory process make up the molecular aspects observed in this disease. Associations between these mechanisms and clinical manifestations could thus define severity profiles and therapeutic

10. Fatty acid-binding protein 4 circulating levels in non-segmental vitiligo
Abstract Background: Vitiligo is an acquired and progressive mucocutaneous disease resulting from the loss of active epidermal melanocytes. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) affects about 25% of the world’s population and is linked to inflammatory skin diseases including vitiligo. Fatty AcidBinding Protein 4 (FABP4) is an intracellular lipid chaperone. FABP4 is c

12. Immunodeficiencies: non-infectious manifestations
Abstract Objectives: Classical immunodeficiencies are mainly characterized by infectious conditions. In recent years, manifestations related to allergy, inflammation, autoimmunity, lymphoproliferation, and malignancies related to this group of diseases have been described. The text intends to make an update on the non-infectious manifestations of the primar
