The Anti-Inflammatory Effects of the Methanolic Extract and Fractions from Davilla elliptica St. Hil. (Dilleniaceae) on Bothrops jararaca Envenomation
(Mdpi Ag, 2015-06-01)
Inflammation and haemorrhage are the main characteristics of tissue injury in botropic envenomation. Although some studies have shown that anti-venom prevents systemic reactions, it is not efficient in preventing tissue ...
Resveratrol-Loaded Liquid-Crystalline System Inhibits UVB-Induced Skin Inflammation and Oxidative Stress in Mice
(2016-05-27)
Evidence shows beneficial effects of resveratrol (RES) on human health. However, its poor aqueous solubility limits therapeutic effectiveness. Thus, the use of nanostructured delivery systems for RES, such as a liquid-crystalline ...
Evaluation of Myrcia bella in murine osteosarcoma cells: Effect of the extract and enriched fractions of tannins and flavonoids
(2021-01-01)
Myrcia bella Cambess (Myrtaceae) is an important and common plant, native to the Brazilian Cerrado, with cytotoxicity, antimicrobial, and antidiabetic properties. Therefore, the effects of crude hydroalcoholic extract (CE) ...
Cobalt-chromium-enriched medium ameliorates shear-stressed endothelial cell performance
(2019-07-01)
Angiogenesis is a relevant mechanism to be considered for the success of bone healing, even considering endosseous implantable devices, providing adequate delivery of substances necessaries for the cell viability and bone ...

(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-10-25)
Doxycycline, a member of the tetracycline family, is a drug used as an antibiotic (dosage of 100 mg/day) and as an anti-inflammatory drug on the dosage of 20 mg twice a day, this use has Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMP) ...
Subgingival endotoxin and lipoteichoic acid modulate cytokine production in diabetic subjects: A Case-control Study
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020-10-23)
Background Periodontal disease and diabetes mellitus (DM) are highly prevalent and interrelated diseases, resulting in altered host response microbiota. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the impact of DM on local levels ...
Zirconia stimulates ECM-remodeling as a prerequisite to pre-osteoblast adhesion/proliferation by possible interference with cellular anchorage
(2018-04-01)
The biological response to zirconia (ZrO2) is not completely understood, which prompted us to address its effect on pre-osteoblastic cells in both direct and indirect manner. Our results showed that zirconia triggers ...
Exposure to fipronil elevates systolic blood pressure and disturbs related biomarkers in plasma of rats
(2016-03-01)
Recent reports show that fipronil affects non-target organisms, including environmental species populations and potentially humans. We aimed to examine if fipronil exposure affects the systolic blood pressure and related ...
An integrative analysis of chemically-induced cirrhosis-associated hepatocarcinogenesis: Histological, biochemical and molecular features
(2017-11-05)
This study aimed the integrative characterization of morphological, biochemical and molecular features of chemically-induced cirrhosis-associated hepatocarcinogenesis. Thus, male Wistar rats were submitted to a diethylnitrosamine ...
Expression of Protease Activated Receptor-1 in Chronic Periodontitis
(Amer Acad Periodontology, 2014-12-01)
Background: Protease activated receptor-1 (PAR(1)) activation by thrombin may play a role in repair and homeostasis of periodontal tissues. The main objective of this study is to investigate PAR(1) expression in patients ...
