1. Caracterização e expressão do gene SERK durante a indução de embriogênese somática em soja / Characterization and expression of SERK gene during induction of somatic embryogenesis in soybean
Somatic embryogenesis is a useful tool for plant propagation and a suitable model system for deciphering early events during embryo development. Molecular and genetic studies focused in plant development have reported the involvement of SERK (Somatic Embryogenesis Receptor Kinase) gene in the acquisition of embryogenic competence. In order to increase the ef

2. Efeitos de acidos graxos na indução de inflamação hipotalamica / Effects of fatty acids on the induction of hypothalamic inflammation
In animal models of diet-induced obesity, the activation of an inflammatory response in the hypothalamus produces molecular and functional resistance to the anorexigenic hormones insulin and leptin. The primary events triggered by dietary fats that ultimately lead to hypothalamic cytokine expression and inflammatory signaling are unknown. Here, we test the h

3. Paracoccidioidomicose: acompanhamento de parâmetros de imunidade adquirida e do estado de ativação de fagócitos em camundongos isogênicos suscetíveis submetidos à terapia antifúngica. / Paracoccidioidomycosis: follow up of acquired immunity parameters and of the activation state of phagocytes in susceptible isogenic mice submitted to the antifungal therapy.
Os efeitos da administração de anfotericina B a camundongos suscetíveis ao P. brasiliensis foram avaliados. A L-AmB reverte o padrão de suscetibilidade para o de resistência de forma mais eficiente do que a c-AmB, como observado na quantificação de UFC, NO e IgG2b. Porém, os níveis de TNF-a, IL-12, IFN-g, GM-CSF, IgG total, IgM, IgG1, IgG2a e IgA n�

4. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) gene polymorphisms are associated with type 2 diabetes / Investigação de polimorfismos em genes do sistema imune inato em uma população com diabetes tipo 2
Atualmente, o DM2 constitui-se como um grande problema de saúde pública mundial devido à sua elevada prevalência, morbimortalidade, além do impacto que apresenta nos custos públicos com a saúde. Os mecanismos fisiopatológicos desta doença têm se tornado cada vez mais evidentes, estando relacionados com o envolvimento exclusivo de células, receptor

5. Avaliação do perfil metabólico da estavudina através do emprego da bioconversão e da modelagem molecular do citocromo P-450 CYP3A4 / Evaluation of the metabolic profile of stavudine through the use of bioconversion and molecular modeling of cytochrome P-450 CYP3A4
Before the approval of an active compound, metabolism studies are necessary to ensure its safety, once active metabolites could be synthesized during human biotransformation. The use of eukaryotic microorganisms for the study of drug metabolism has been widely explored, due to its capability of producing metabolites similar to the mammalians, and in silico s

6. l-Lysine acts like a partial serotonin receptor 4 antagonist and inhibits serotonin-mediated intestinal pathologies and anxiety in rats
The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether a nutritionally essential amino acid, l-lysine, acts like a serotonin receptor 4 (5-HT4) antagonist, and if l-lysine is beneficial in animal models of serotonin (5-HT)-induced anxiety, diarrhea, ileum contractions, and tachycardia and in stress-induced fecal excretion. The radioligand-binding assay w

7. Characterization of a chimeric monoclonal antibody against the insulin-like growth factor-I receptor
The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) signaling system has been shown to play important roles in neoplasia. The IGF receptor type 1 (IGF-IR) is overexpressed in many types of solid and hematopoietic malignancies, and there is substantial experimental and clinical evidence that targeting IGF-IR is a promising therapeutic strategy against cancer. It has been

8. Design, generation, and testing of mammalian expression modules that tag membrane proteins
The expression of mammalian membrane proteins in laboratory cell lines allows their biological functions to be characterized and carefully dissected. However, it is often difficult to design and generate effective antibodies for membrane proteins in the desired studies. As a result, expressed membrane proteins cannot be detected or characterized via common b

9. Large-Scale Sequencing of Two Regions in Human Chromosome 7q22: Analysis of 650 kb of Genomic Sequence around the EPO and CUTL1 Loci Reveals 17 Genes
We have sequenced and annotated two genomic regions located in the Giemsa negative band q22 of human chromosome 7. The first region defined by the erythropoietin (EPO) locus is 228 kb in length and contains 13 genes. Whereas 3 genes (GNB2, EPO, PCOLCE) were known previously on the mRNA level, we have been able to identify 10 novel genes using a newly develop

10. LDLR Database (second edition): new additions to the database and the software, and results of the first molecular analysis.
Mutations in the LDL receptor gene (LDLR) cause familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), a common autosomal dominant disorder. The LDLR database is a computerized tool that has been developed to provide tools to analyse the numerous mutations that have been identified in the LDLR gene. The second version of the LDLR database contains 140 new entries and the softw

11. Proteomic Approach for Characterization of Immunodominant Membrane-Associated 30- to 36-Kilodalton Fraction Antigens of Leishmania infantum Promastigotes, Reacting with Sera from Mediterranean Visceral Leishmaniasis Patients
The aim of the present study was to identify and characterize proteins of a 30- to 36-kDa fraction of Leishmania infantum promastigote membranes previously shown to be an immunodominant antigen(s) in Mediterranean visceral leishmaniasis (MVL) and a consistent and reliable serological marker of this disease. By the first approach, Coomassie-stained protein ba
