1. An Alternative Inactivant for Rift Valley Fever Virus using Cobra Venom-derived L-Amino Oxidase, which is Related to its Immune Potential
ABSTRACT Vaccine improvement depends on the formulation, adjuvant type and inactivant used. The type of formulation may interfere with immunogenicity. The present work aimed to evaluate the inactivation activity and related immune potential of the Cobra venom-derived LAO enzyme compared to the currently used inactivants (BPL and formalin) for both animal and

2. Bothrops snake venoms and their isolated toxins, an L-amino acid oxidase and a serine protease, modulate human complement system pathways
Background Activation of the complement system plays an important role in the regulation of immune and inflammatory reactions, and contributes to inflammatory responses triggered by envenomation provoked byBothrops snakes. The present study aimed to assess whether Bothrops jararacussuand Bothrops pirajai crude venoms and their isolated toxins, namely serine

3. Therapeutic concentration of morphine reduces oxidative stress in glioma cell line
Morphine is a potent analgesic opioid used extensively for pain treatment. During the last decade, global consumption grew more than 4-fold. However, molecular mechanisms elicited by morphine are not totally understood. Thus, a growing literature indicates that there are additional actions to the analgesic effect. Previous studies about morphine and oxidativ

4. Involvement of brassinosteroids and ethylene in the control of mitochondrial electron transport chain in postharvest papaya fruit
The plant hormones brassinosteroids (BR) and ethylene (ET) act together to regulate plant metabolism. We used BR and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP, an ET action inhibitor) to elucidate the interactions between both hormones for the regulation of mitochondrial respiratory pathways in papaya fruit. The exogenous application of the 24-epibrassinolide (epiBR) enha

5. Efeito do tratamento tÃrmico e do Ãcido salicÃlico na atividade de polifenoloxidase, peroxidase e fenilalanina amÃnia-liase, nas caracterÃsticas fÃsico-quÃmicas e na incidÃncia de patÃgenos em morangos durante o armazenamento / Effect of heat treatment and salicylic acid on polyphenoloxidase, peroxidase and phenylalanine ammonia-liase activity, physical-chemistry characteristics and incidence of pathogens in strawberries during storage
The strawberry is a fruit that is highly perishable and are very susceptible to physical damage and fungal attack. The use of fungicides has been the primary method for reducing post-harvest diseases. Accordingly, alternative methods free of chemicals must be used in post-harvest to maintain the quality and prolong the life reduce the incidence of fungi. The

6. Diversidade genética de Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, 1908 (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) e caracterização molecular das linhagens de Wolbachia associadas / Genetic diversity of Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, 1908 (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) and molecular characterization of the associate strains of Wolbachia
Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, 1908 (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) is an exotic insect in Brazil, first recorded in the 40s. Although it causes direct damage, D. citri only received attention as a pest in 2004, when the \"Huanglonbing\" (HLB) disease was confirmed infecting citrus in Brazil, and subsequently related to D. citri as vector. Currently, there is no cure for

7. Sensores e biossensores baseados em transistores de efeito de campo utilizando filmes automontados nanoestruturados / Sensors and biosensors based on field-effect transistors using nanostructured self-assembled films
Separative extended gate field-effect transistor (SEGFET) device is an alternative to the conventional ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET). The great advantage of SEGFET refers to its easy processing, i.e., it is limited under only manipulation of the gate electrode, avoiding the conventional microelectronic processes. In this way, ion sensors and

8. ProspecÃÃo de proteÃnas envolvidas no amadurecimento pÃs-colheita da graviola (Annona muricata L.) / Prospecting for proteins involved in post-harvest ripening of soursop (Annona muricata L.)
The soursop (Annona muricata L.) fruit is widely used in food, because it provides vitamins, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and other molecules for human nutrition. In recent years, soursop (exotic tropical fruit) has had a prominent position in the Brazilian economy, especially for northeastern states such as, Ceara, Alagoas, Bahia and Pernambuco. The high

9. Influência dos polieletrólitos na resposta eletroquímica de filmes automontados contendo nanotubos de carbono para aplicação em nanomedicina / Influence the polyelectrolytes on the electrochemical response of layer-by-layer films containing carbon nanotubes for applications in nanomedicine
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are cylindrical carbon nanostructures exhibiting excellent electrical, thermal, optical and mechanical properties. The immobilization of CNTs in nanostructured thin films in conjunction with polymers using the Layer-by-Layer (LbL) technique provides a new alternative for development of nanocomposites to be used as sensors and biosenso

Moniliophihora perniciosa e Monüiophthora roreri são basidiomicetos fitopatogênicos. causadores de duas das mais devastadoras doenças fúngicas do cacaueiro: a Vassoura de bruxa e a Frosty Pod Rot (Momlíase), respectivamente. Apesar do grande impacto socioeconómico dessas doenças, aspectos importantes relacionados ao metabolismo destes patógenos aind

11. Modulação de eventos da imunidade humoral e celular por venenos brutos e componentes dos venenos de Bothrops jararacussu e Bothrops pirajai / Modulation of events of humoral and cellular immunity by crude venom and components of Bothrops jararacussu and Bothrops pirajai
Snakes of the genus Bothrops are responsible for 90% of snakebites in Brazil. Their venoms cause local effects in humans and animals, such as hemorrhage, edema, pain and necrosis, characteristic of an inflammatory response. The mechanism is not well defined. These effects are related to the combined action of proteases, substances that induce bleeding and ph

12. Functional identification and genomic structure of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis nuclear genes associated to cytochrome c oxidase activity. / Identificação funcional e estrutura genômica de genes nucleares associados à atividade da citocromo C oxidase de Paracoccidioides brasiliensis.
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the ethologic agent of the paracoccioidomycose, a systemic mycosis prevalent in Latin American. This is a thermo dimorphic fungus living in the mycelium form at room temperature (25ºC) and in the yeast form between 35 ºC e 37 ºC. In this work we identified and study fifteen (15) new P. brasiliensis genes involved in the mi
