1. Isolation, characterisation and continuous culture of Lactobacillus spp. and its potential use for lactic acid production from whey
Abstract Bioprospecting of microorganisms with the potential of exploiting agro-industrial wastes is an active field of biotechnological research. In this study, we aimed to isolate a microorganism adapted to the dairy matrix with specific characteristics to produce lactic acid from dairy industry wastes, such as whey. Whey was collected from the agricultura

2. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura presenting as recurrent thrombocytopenia in a young female — A case report
Objective: This randomized controlled trial examined the efficacy and safety of N-acetylcysteine as an adjunctive treatment for smoking cessation. Methods: Heavy smokers were recruited from smoking cessation treatment for this 12- week randomized controlled trial. Eligible tobacco use disorder outpatients (n=34) were randomized to N-acetylcysteine or place

3. N-acetylcysteine as an adjunctive treatment for smoking cessation: a randomized clinical trial
Objective: This randomized controlled trial examined the efficacy and safety of N-acetylcysteine as an adjunctive treatment for smoking cessation. Methods: Heavy smokers were recruited from smoking cessation treatment for this 12- week randomized controlled trial. Eligible tobacco use disorder outpatients (n=34) were randomized to N-acetylcysteine or place

4. Chemical and structural composition of black pigmented supragingival biofilm of bovines with periodontitis
RESUMO: A periodontite bovina é uma infecção multifatorial associada primariamente à microbiota potencialmente patogênica presente no biofilme bucal. Biofilmes são estruturas organizadas, nas quais os constituintes convivem em simbiose, descritos em outras espécies como um fator predisponente à periodontite. O objetivo do presente estudo foi caracter

5. How increased atmospheric carbon dioxide and ‘The Law of the Minimum’ are contributing to environmental obesity
Resumo Justus von Liebig observou que era possível aumentar a produção agrícola adicionando pequenas quantidades de nitrogênio (N), fósforo (P) e potássio (K) aos solos. Essa descoberta levou a mais recente revolução agrícola. Contudo, uma vez que a maioria das plantas e microrganismos podem ser não-homeostáticos em relação a composição quím

6. Anthropogenic impacts on aquatic bacteria: a perspective from the tropics
Resumo O bacterioplâncton compreende um grupo altamente diversificado de microrganismos, que são dominantes nos ecossistemas aquáticos e desempenham um papel central no funcionamento desses ecossistemas e nos ciclos biogeoquímicos. Devido às suas elevadas taxas de dispersão e de mudança na composição, bem como alta adaptabilidade e plasticidade, os

7. Homocysteine and Psychiatric Disorders
Abstract Psychiatric disorders are highly prevalent all over the world with a great impact on public health. Altered homocysteine metabolism is implicated in the pathogenesis of many of these disorders, as it can interfere in normal methylation of subcellular components, promote neuroexcitotoxicity, and induce oxidative stress and inflammation. There are cum

8. Eicosanoids and cancer
Eicosanoids are 20-carbon bioactive lipids derived from the metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which can modulate various biological processes including cell proliferation, adhesion and migration, angiogenesis, vascular permeability and inflammatory responses. In recent years, studies have shown the importance of eicosanoids in the control of physiol

9. Assessment of Metabolism of the Eastern Oyster and Eastern Elliptio Using NMR Spectroscopy
Metabolites are known to characterize the functional responses of a cell. Therefore, a quantitative measurement of metabolite profiles can provide insight into the underlying effect of genetic or environmental actions on cell metabolism. It follows then that the study of the metabolite profiles of bivalve mollusks, such as oysters, can be particularly worthw

10. Different physiological responses under drought stress result in different recovery abilities of two tropical woody evergreen species
ABSTRACT The effects of water deficit on physiological and biochemical variables of young plants of two tropical woody species, Pachira aquatica and Sterculia foetida, and their recovery abilities were measured. Leaf water potential, gas exchange and selected carbon metabolism components were measured in a greenhouse experiment with control, moderate and sev

11. Activation of locus coeruleus heme oxygenase-carbon monoxide pathway promoted an anxiolytic-like effect in rats
The heme oxygenase-carbon monoxide pathway has been shown to play an important role in many physiological processes and is capable of altering nociception modulation in the nervous system by stimulating soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). In the central nervous system, the locus coeruleus (LC) is known to be a region that expresses the heme oxygenase enzyme (HO

12. Association study of folate-related enzymes (MTHFR, MTR, MTRR) genetic variants with non-obstructive male infertility in a Polish population
Spermatogenesis is a process where an important contribution of genes involved in folate-mediated one-carbon metabolism is observed. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between male infertility and the MTHFR (677C > T; 1298A > C), MTR (2756A > G) and MTRR (66A > G) polymorphisms in a Polish population. No significant differences i
