1. METABOLÔMICA: DEFINIÇÕES, ESTADO-DA-ARTE E APLICAÇÕES REPRESENTATIVAS
Metabolomics is an emerging and promising omics approach used to understand biological mechanisms. By untargeted and targeted metabolomics analyses, metabolites are determined in biological samples (fluids, cells, tissues, etc.) by comparison of control groups with altered groups, undergoing different therapies, submitted to differing stress levels, dietary

2. An overview of a diagnostic and epidemiologic reappraisal of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Iran
Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a widespread tropical infection which has a high incidence rate in Iran. Leishmania tropica, the causative agent of anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL), and Leishmania major, which causes zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL), are endemic in various parts of Iran with a high incidence rate. The aim of this study was t

3. Molecular techniques for the study and diagnosis of parasite infection
In parasitology, routine laboratory diagnosis involves conventional methods, such as optical microscopy, used for the morphological identification of parasites. Currently, molecular biology techniques are increasingly used to diagnose parasite structures in order to enhance the identification and characterization of parasites. The objective of the present st

4. Estudos de fisiologia comparativa de modelos de malária em roedor. / Comparative physiology studies of rodent malaria models.
Malária é um dos principais problemas de saúde nos países em desenvolvimento sendo o Plasmodium o agente etiológico da doença. Neste trabalho foi investigada a função do Ca2+ e da sinalização purinérgica na modulação proteolítica de Plasmodium. Utilizando peptídeos com apagamento intracelular de fluorescência (FRET) analisamos a atividade pro

5. Epidemiologia da leishmaniose visceral humana em Araguaína (TO) e o diagnóstico sorológico da doença / Epidemiology of human visceral Leishmaniasis in Araguaína (TO) and serological diagnosis of this disease
Human visceral leishmaniasis (HVL) is a severe systemic protozoonosis that has presented changes at the epidemiological behavior, with a growing trend in Brazil. It has been conducted a cross sectional study to assess the context of HVL in the city of Araguaina (TO) from January 2007 to August 2010. Additionally, tests were conducted to compare the diagnosti

6. Normalização das Alterações Clínicas e Hematológicas em Cães com Ehrlichiose Submetidos ao Tratamento com Doxiciclina. 2010. 41p. / Normalization of Clinical and Hematological Alterations in Dogs with Ehrlichiosis Submitted to the Treatment with Doxycycline. 2010. 41p.
The canine monocytic ehrlichiosis, an infectious disease of worldwide distribution, is caused by the rickettsia Ehrlichia canis, an obligatory intracellular parasite of mononuclear cells and transmitted by the dog tick Rhipicephalus sanguineus. The clinical and hematological abnormalities are varied, depending on the strain of Ehrlichia spp., the immune resp

7. Aspectos clínicos, diagnósticos e tratamentos da estefanofilariose em vacas leiteiras
Stephanofilariasis is a worldwide disease caused by the nematode Stephanofilaria spp that determines skin lesions in several definitive hosts. The prevalence is higher in summer due to the increase in fly population, the intermediate host. In cattle, the chronic dermatitis is characteristic begining with papules that progress to nodules, alopecia and ulcers

8. Toxoplasmosis: serological analysis in pregnant women who attend primary health centres in Pelotas - RS / Toxoplasmose: Perfil Sorológico em gestantes atendidas em Postos de Saúde do Município de Pelotas-RS
The toxoplasmosis acquired during pregnancy of benign course in imunocompetentes patients and asymptomatic in 85% of the cases may infect the fetus and result in congenital infection. Although most of the newborns do not present symptoms or clinical signs, there may be sequelae during the childhood and adult life, being the corioretinitis the most frequent o

9. Evolution of ascariasis in humans and pigs: a multi-disciplinary approach
The nematode parasite Ascaris lumbricoides infects the digestive tracts of over 1.4 billion people worldwide, and its sister species, Ascaris suum, has infected a countless number of domesticated and feral pigs. It is generally thought that the putative ancestor to these worms infected either humans or pigs, but with the advent of domestication, they had amp

10. Trópicos, microbios y vectores
The article analyzes how Argentinean and Brazilian researchers designed their tropical disease research programs in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Even though Brazilian and Argentinean hygiene were direct descendants of Pasteurian programs and principles, Brazil addressed its public health problems through a new research agenda that embraced bacteri

11. History of Human Parasitology
Humans are hosts to nearly 300 species of parasitic worms and over 70 species of protozoa, some derived from our primate ancestors and some acquired from the animals we have domesticated or come in contact with during our relatively short history on Earth. Our knowledge of parasitic infections extends into antiquity, and descriptions of parasites and parasit

12. Biochemical and ultrastructural study of Blastocystis hominis.
This study was prompted by the paradox of strong presence of mitochondria in an anaerobic protozoan, recently reclassified from the yeasts. Stemming from publication in 1911 to 1912, Blastocystis hominis has been generally accepted as a harmless intestinal yeast of humans, with short standardized textbook (parasitology) descriptions, even to the present day.
