Functional and evolutionary perspectives on gill structures of an obligate air-breathing, aquatic snail
(PeerJ, 2019-07)
Ampullariids are freshwater gastropods bearing a gill and a lung, thus showing different degrees of amphibiousness. In particular, Pomacea canaliculata (Caenogastropoda, Ampullariidae) is an obligate air-breather that ...
Effect of Aloe vera extract on the improvement of the respiratory activity of leukocytes of matrinxã during the transport stress
(Sociedade Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2012-10-01)
This study evaluated the effect of extract of Aloe vera in the transport water of matrinxã (Brycon amazonicus) fish on stress response and leukocyte respiratory activity. Fish was transported for 4 h in water containing ...

The insecticides chlorpyrifos and acetamiprid induce redox imbalance in umbilical cord blood erythrocytes in vitro
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2018-06)
Organophosphate and neonicotinoid compounds belong to different pesticide families, and are used worldwide for agricultural purposes. The potential deleterious health effects associated with pesticide exposure during ...
Spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide exert antioxidant effects and reduce vascular matrix metalloproteinase-2 activity and expression in a model of renovascular hypertension
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2010)
Background and purpose: Increased oxidative stress and up-regulation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) may cause structural and functional vascular changes in renovascular hypertension. We examined whether treatment with ...

Platelet Serotonin Aggravates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury via Neutrophil Degranulation
(Lippincott Williams, 2019-02)
Background: Platelets store large amounts of serotonin that they release during thrombus formation or acute inflammation. This facilitates hemostasis and modulates the inflammatory response. Methods: Infarct size, heart ...
Antioxidant treatment reduces matrix metalloproteinase-2-induced vascular changes in renovascular hypertension
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2009)
Mounting evidence indicates that structural and functional vascular changes associated with two-kidney, one-clip (2K-1C) hypertension result, at least in part, from altered activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). ...
