13. Avaliação do padrão de degeneração e regeneração muscular em diferentes modelos murinos para distrofias musculares progressivas / Study of degeneration and regeneration pathways, in mice models for muscular dystrophies
The muscular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of genetic diseases characterized by progressive and irreversible degeneration of skeletal muscles. Muscle weakness is the consequence of an imbalance between successive cycles of degeneration and regeneration, with further replacement of the degraded muscle fibers by adipose and connective tissues. Several

14. Susceptibility of Rosa Shrimp Farfantepenaeus subtilis (Pérez-Farfante, 1967) to Infectious myonecrosis virus (IMNV) / Susceptibilidade do Camarão Rosa Farfantepenaeus subtilis (Pérez-Farfante, 1967) ao Vírus da Mionecrose Infecciosa (IMNV)
Viral diseases are causing great damage in shrimp farming. With the IMN virus emergence in Northeastern Brazil in 2002, the shrimp producers faced an unknown disease that caused significant losses for the industry. Thus, a better knowledge about this disease and the investigation of how other species of shrimp are affected by the IMN virus will be an importa

15. Morphological, biomechanical and biochemical analysis of tendon of obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats / Analise morfologica, biomecanica e bioquimica de tendão de ratos Zucker (fa/fa) obesos
Obesity is considered a worldwide epidemic, one of the biggest public health problems in many parts of the planet, which grows in alarming rates. In Brazil, the decline in rates of malnutrition has been accompanied by rising rates of overweight and obesity, which can be defined as the accumulation of abnormal or excessive fat which presents a risk to health.

16. Expressão do Coativador-1 do Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor- (PGC-1) em fígado e músculos esqueléticos soleus e plantaris de ratos machos Wistar submetidos ao exercício físico voluntário crônico / Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor- - Coactivator-1 ( PGC-1 ) expression in the liver and skeletal muscles soleus and plantaris of male Wistar rats subjected to chronic voluntary exercise
INTRODUCTION: The Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor- - Coactivator 1 ( PGC-1 e ) is a protein responsible for the connection between environmental stimuli and cell metabolic response. Its presence is important in fat tissue, hepatic and skeletal muscle and in animals on brown fat tissue. Interact with nuclear receptors modulating the mitochondrial b

17. Influência da distrofia muscular do Golden Retriever (GRMD) na viabilidade espermática e nas características morfológicas do aparelho reprodutivo masculino / Influence of Golden Retriever muscular dystrophy (GRMD) on sperm viability and on morphologic characteristics of the male reproductive tract
Muscular dystrophies constitute a group of diseases characterized by progressive and irreversible muscle degeneration. Duchenne´s Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a lethal myopathy caused by dystrophin deficiency, a muscular cell cytoskeleton protein. The dystrophin gene have recessive characteristic and is located in the p21 portion of the X chromosome. Advance

18. L-arginine administration : the effect on myocardial fibrosis and increase of the carcinogenesis in mice mdx / Administração de L-arginina : efeitos sobre a fibrose miocardica e aumento da carcinogenese em camundongos mdx
The Duchenne Muscle Dystrophy (DMD) is a myopathy characterized by dystrophin absence, which is a structural protein of the plasma membrane. The dystrophin absence leads to functional alterations followed by necrosis in the skeletal and cardiac muscle fiber. As the patients grow older, about 40% of them develop cardiomyopathy due to progressive myocardial fi

19. Efeito de exercÃcio fÃsico e estatinas no perfil lipÃdico e na funÃÃo muscular em ratos dislipidÃmicos
Statins are used to treat dislipidemias with great tolerance, however, several side effects can occur, specially myopathies. The regular practice of physical exercise (PE) produce beneficial alteration in the lipidic profile, however can generate muscle injuries. OBJECTIVE -To evaluate the effect of PE in the lipidic profile; the efficacy of the assocciation

20. The effect of Bulgarian propolis against Trypanosoma cruzi and during its interaction with host cells
Propolis has shown activity against pathogenic microorganisms that cause diseases in humans and animals. The ethanol (Et-Blg) and acetone (Ket-Blg) extracts from a Bulgarian propolis, with known chemical compositions, presented similar activity against tissue culture-derived amastigotes. The treatment of Trypanosoma cruzi-infected skeletal muscle cells with

21. Periondontitis modulates insulin signaling, c-jun N-terminal kinase activity, IKK activity, and insulin recptor substrate-1 (ser 307) phosphorylation in muscle and liver of wistar rats / A influencia da periodontite na via de sinalização da insulina em musculo e figado de ratos machos wistar
Traditional thinking/paradigms have maintained that periodontits is na oral disease and that the tissue destructive response remains localized within the periodontium, limiting effects of the disease to oral tissues supporting the teeth. Recent studies have indicated that periodontits may produce any number of alterations in systemic health and in the presen

22. Estudo dos componentes nutricionais e imunológicos na perda de peso em camundongos com alergia alimentar
Allergic diseases have reached epidemic proportions and are characterized by IgE production against antigens that gain the organisms through the mucosas. Here, we used a allergy model which BALB/c mice receive ovalbumin orally after sensitization with ovalbumin. After the oral challenge with egg white solution, the ovalbumin sensitized BALB/c mice usually sh

23. Histochemical and ultrastructure of the ventral prostate lobe of rats (rattus norvegicus) submitted to prolonged nicotine use / Histoquimica e ultra-estrutura do lobo ventral da prostata de ratos (rattus norvegicus) frente ao uso prolongado de nicotina
The harrnful effects of nicotine on different organ systems have been reported in various experimental and clinical studies. However, its effects on the male genital system remain obscure. Thus, the aim of the present study was to analyze the histological, histochemical and ultrastructural alterations, following by stereology, of the ventral lobe of the pros

24. Efeitos da polpa de laranja sobre lipideos plasmaticos, capacidade antioxidante e parametros cardiovasculares em hamsters hipercolesterolêmicos
Hypercholesterolemia is a high cardiovascular risk factor because cholesterol exerts a prooxidant effect and leads to enhanced production of oxygen free radicals, especially by oxidizing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and generating species that can react with oxygen in the vascular wall. For most cholesterol lowering drugs to be effective they must be used f
