1. Effects of growth hormone in the central nervous system
ABSTRACT Growth hormone (GH) is best known for its effect stimulating tissue and somatic growth through the regulation of cell division, regeneration and proliferation. However, GH-responsive neurons are spread over the entire central nervous system, suggesting that they have important roles in the brain. The objective of the present review is to summarize a

2. Insulin signaling in the whole spectrum of GH deficiency
ABSTRACT GH is one of the insulin counterregulatory hormones which acts in the opposite way to insulin, increasing the glucose production by the liver and kidneys and decreasing glucose uptake from peripheral tissues, thus being a hyperglycemic hormone. When in excess, as in acromegaly, it induces glucose intolerance and diabetes. As expected, patients with

3. Dystrophic mineralization in uremic dogs: an update
RESUMO: Mineralização patológica é a deposição anormal de minerais em tecidos previamente lesados ou não. Nessas lesões, além do cálcio, outros minerais podem ser encontrados em concentrações inferiores. Classicamente, as mineralizações são divididas em dois tipos: distrófica e metastática. Contudo, atualmente, ainda não há consenso entre

4. Thermal comfort and grazing behavior of Girolando heifers in integrated crop-livestock (ICL) and crop-livestock-forest (ICLF) systems
ABSTRACT. To compare the integrated crop-livestock-forest (ICLF) and crop-livestock (ICL) systems in relation to thermal comfort and grazing behavior of Girolando heifers, a 2 × 2 crossover trial (two system and two periods) was carried out with eight – Holstein × ¼ Gyr heifers in Xaraés-palisade grass pasture under intermittent stocking with 10 days o

5. Novel immunoassay for TSH measurement in rats
ABSTRACT Measuring thyroid hormones is an important aspect for the study of metabolism and for monitoring diseases in both human and animal models. The traditional method for hormone measurement in rats is the radioimmunoassay (RIA). However, the RIA is associated with some practical disadvantages, including the use of radioactive material, the need for spec

6. Serum testosterone as a biomarker for second prostatic biopsy in men with negative first biopsy for prostatic cancer and PSA>4ng/mL, or with PIN biopsy result
Abstract Introduction: Data from animal, clinical and prevention studies support the role of androgens in prostate cancer growth, proliferation and progression. Results of serum based epidemiologic studies in humans, however, have been inconclusive. The present study aims to define whether serum testosterone can be used as a predictor of a positive second b

7. The effects of supplemental melatonin administration on the healing of bone defects in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes an increased production of free radicals that can impair bone healing. Melatonin is a hormone secreted mainly by the pineal gland, which participates in the neutralization process of free radicals. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate histologic and biochemical effects of supplemental melatonin administr

8. Determination of the regulatory properties of Yucca schidigera extracts on the biochemical parameters and plasma hormone levels associated with obesity
ABSTRACT Yucca schidigera Ortgies, Asparagaceae, is a herbaceous plant. Due to the high saponin content the powdered branches and leaves are used as natural food additive for human and animal. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Y. schidigera extracts on plasma leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, insulin, thyroid hormones and some biochemical p

9. The thyroid hormone receptor β-selective agonist GC-1 does not affect tolerance to exercise in hypothyroid rats
Objective Investigate the effect of GC-1 on tolerance to exercise in rats with experimental hypothyroidism. Materials and methods Hypothyroidism was induced with methimazole sodium and perchlorate treatment. Six groups with eight animals were studied: control group (C), hypothyroid group without treatment (HYPO); hypothyroidism treated with physiological do

11. Análise da concentração de nitrato no líquido cefalorraquidiano e da atividade enzimática das óxido nítrico sintases no hipotálamo de ratos submetidos à sepse experimental / Analysis of nitrate concentration in the cerebrospinal fluid and of the enzymatic activity of nitric oxide synthase in the hypothalamus of rats submitted to experimental sepsis.
Sepsis is defined as a systemic inflammatory response to an infectious stimulus. In the initial phase of the disease the secretion of vasopressin (AVP) is increased and late is observed a reduction, although high levels of inflammatory mediators and worsening of the hypotension, which are stimuli for the hormone secretion. Nitric oxide (NO) produced by the e

12. EFEITO DA ASSOCIAÇÃO DO FATOR DE CRESCIMENTO E DIFERENCIAÇÃO 9 (GDF-9) E DO HORMÔNIO FOLÍCULO ESTIMULANTE (FSH) SOBRE O DESENVOLVIMENTO IN VITRO DE FOLÍCULOS PRÉ-ANTRAIS CAPRINOS EM CULTIVO IN SITU DE LONGA DURAÇÃO / EFFECT OF ASSOCIATION AND GROWTH FACTOR DIFFERENTIATION 9 (GDF-9) and hormone FOLLICLE STIMULATING (FSH) DEVELOPMENT OF IN VITRO PREANTRAL FOLLICLES GOATS IN FARMING IN SITU LONG
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF-9) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) on the in vitro survival, growth and steroidogenesis of caprine preantral follicles cultured for 16 days. Ovarian fragments were cultured in αMEM+ in the presence or absence of GDF-9 (200 ng/mL) and/or FSH (50 ng/mL) added
