25. Experimental model of temporomandibular joint arthritis induced by zymozan in rats and the study of the role of nitric oxide / Padronização de modelo experimental de artrite na articulação temporomandibular induzida por zymozan em ratos e estudo do papel do óxido nítrico
Temproromandibular disfunction (TMD) is related to a masticatory system disfunction which can include the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), the masticatory muscles and/or other related structures. TMJ inflammatory disorders are one of the major pathology of TMD afecting a great number of patients. Although TMJs inflammation and pain are important cinical entiti

26. Influência da lesão condral na concentração de glicosaminoglicanas sulfatadas no líquido sinovial.
Objetivo: Avaliar a influência da lesão condral na concentração de glicosaminoglicanas sulfatadas no líquido sinovial de indivíduos portadores de lesões condrais isoladas ou associadas com lesões do ligamento cruzado anterior e dos meniscos, bem como uma associação com o tempo da lesão e o grau de osteoartrite. Desenho do estudo: Foram avaliados 2

27. Clinical and morphophisiological aspects of the rat knee articulation after immobilization and remobilization / Aspectos clínicos e morfofisiológicos da articulação fêmorotibio-patelar de ratos após imobilização prolongada e remobilização
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and morphophisiological aspects of the rat knee articulation after immobilization and remobilization with free activity and swimming. Thirty four adult male rats (Wistar) were randomly allocated into one of four groups: without immobilization, (G1, n = 4), with immobilization (G2, n = 10), immobilization and

28. DM43 an inhibitor of involved metalloproteases of matrix on Osteoarthritis and Neoplasms. / DM43, um inibidor de metaloproteases de matriz envolvidas em Osteoartrite e neoplasias
Natural resistance of marsupials against the toxic effects of venoms is due to the presence of soluble neutralizing proteins in their sera. We have isolated from opossum serum (Didelphis marsupialis) an acidic glycoprotein with 43 kDa (DM43), with an effective inhibition action to metalloproteinases snake venoms, by non-covalent complex formation (Neves-Ferr

29. Estudo histoquimico da membrana sinovial da articulação temporomandibular
Morpho-functional studies are very important in understanding the pathogenesis of different diseases which affect the temporomandibular joint, however there are very few published studies about the histochemistry of the synovial lining cells. This work analyses the histochemistry of the synovial lining cells of the temporomadibular joint of adult female Engl

30. Carbohydrate heterogeneity of fibronectins. Synovial fluid fibronectin resembles the form secreted by cultured synoviocytes but differs from the plasma form.
Large quantities of fibronectin (Fn) are present in inflammatory synovial fluid. Inflammatory synovial fluid Fn, while indistinguishable from plasma Fn on the basis of reactivity to polyclonal antibodies, displays alterations in molecular size and charge. Since biochemical differences between plasma and synovial fluid fibronectins might be in part due to dif

31. Survey of synovial fluid cryoprecipitates.
Synovial fluid cryoproteins from various inflammatory and noninflammatory arthritides were examined for the presence of immunoglobulin, fibrinogen, antiglobulin activity, and third component of complement and correlated with the synovial fluid leucocyte count. The majority of rheumatoid synovial fluid cryoproteins contained either IgG-IgM complexes or IgG al

32. Synovial fluid inhibits killing of Staphylococcus aureus by neutrophils.
Serum in the extracellular environment promotes neutrophil bactericidal activity apart from its opsonizing properties. We examined the effect of non-inflammatory osteoarthritic synovial fluid on serum-mediated neutrophil killing of Staphylococcus aureus. This was done to evaluate the effect of synovial fluid on neutrophil bactericidal activity independent of

33. Abnormal osteocalcin binding in rheumatoid arthritis.
Studies of osteocalcin in the serum and synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) showed the presence of significant amounts of osteocalcin in synovial fluid and that the values in RA synovial fluid were significantly lower than in OA synovial fluid. In addition, the osteocalcin in OA synovial fluid bound almost comple

34. The occurrence of cryoproteins in synovial fluid; the association of a complement-fixing activity in rheumatoid synovial fluid with cold-precipitable protein
A significant portion of a complement-fixing activity found in the synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and previously implicated as a possible cause of the low synovial fluid complement levels in these patients behaves as a high solubility cryoprotein. Analysis of rheumatoid synovial fluid cryoproteins has revealed mixed immunoglobulins, bo

35. Synovial fluid and serum concentrations of aminoterminal propeptide of type III procollagen in healthy volunteers and patients with joint disease.
OBJECTIVES--To analyse synovial fluid and serum concentrations of the amino-propeptide of the type III procollagen (PIIINP) in normal individuals and patients with joint disease, and to explore the relationship between synovial fluid PIIINP concentrations and the rheumatological diagnosis, local inflammation, and joint disease. METHODS--A radioimmunoassay wa

36. Synovial fluid copper and related variables in rheumatoid and degenerative arthritis.
Copper, caeruloplasmin, transferrin, albumin, and total protein were measured in the serum and synovial fluid of 40 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and 40 patients with osteoarthrosis. A raised synovial fluid copper and caeruloplasmin have been found to be characteristic of rheumatoid effusions. The relation between copper and caeruloplasmin in synovial f
