Waterborne aripiprazole blunts the stress response in zebrafish
(2016) [Artigo de periódico]Here we provide, at least to our knowledge, the first evidence that aripiprazole (APPZ) in the water blunts the stress response of exposed fish in a concentration ten times lower than the concentration detected in the ... -
Waterborne risperidone decreases stress response in zebrafish
(2015) [Artigo de periódico]The presence of drugs and their metabolites in surface waters and municipal effluents has been reported in several studies, but its impacts on aquatic organisms are not yet well understood. This study investigated the ... -
Were sea level changes during the pleistocene in the south atlantic coastal plain a driver of speciation in Petunia (Solanaceae)?
(2015) [Artigo de periódico]Background: Quaternary climatic changes led to variations in sea level and these variations played a significant role in the generation of marine terrace deposits in the South Atlantic Coastal Plain. The main consequence ... -
What could be the fate of secondary contact zones between closely related plant species?
(2020) [Artigo de periódico]Interspecific hybridization has been fundamental in plant evolution. Nevertheless, the fate of hybrid zones throughout the generations remains poorly addressed. We analyzed a pair of recently diverged, interfertile, and ... -
What is new for an old molecule? : Systematic review and recommendations on the use of resveratrol
(2011) [Artigo de periódico]Background: Resveratrol is a natural compound suggested to have beneficial health effects. However, people are consuming resveratrol for this reason without having the adequate scientific evidence for its effects in humans. ... -
Where are the bats? An environmental complementarity analysis in a megadiverse country
(2020) [Artigo de periódico]Aim: Field surveys are necessary to overcome Wallacean shortfalls. The task is even more important when human pressure on tropical—megadiverse—ecosystems is con sidered. However, due to financial constraints, spatial and ... -
Which fish is this? Fishers know more than 100 fish species in megadiverse tropical rivers
(2022) [Artigo de periódico]Ethnobiological studies on folk, common, or popular names that fishers use to identify fish can help improve fisheries monitoring and collaborations between fishers and researchers. This study investigates fishers’ knowledge ... -
Which is the best in silico program for the Missense Variations in IDUA gene? A comparison of 33 programs plus a conservation score and evaluation of 586 missense variants
(2021) [Artigo de periódico]Mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by the deficiency of alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA), an enzyme involved in glycosaminoglycan degradation. More than 200 disease-causing ... -
White matter lesions in Fabry disease before and after enzyme replacement therapy : a 2-year follow-up
(2006) [Artigo de periódico]Objetivo: Relatar os achados neurológicos e de imagem do sistema nervoso central (SNC), observados durante 24 meses de tratamento de reposição enzimática (ERT) com agalsidase-alfa, em pacientes com a doença de Fabry (FD). ... -
Whole-genome sequencing-based characterization of Streptomyces sp. 6(4) : focus on natural product
(2023) [Artigo de periódico]We have sequenced the whole genome of Streptomyces sp. 6(4) isolated from tomato roots that presents antifungal activity against phytopathogenic fungi, mainly Bipolaris sorokiniana. The genome has almost 7Mb and 3368 ... -
Why is congenital Zika syndrome asymmetrically distributed among human populations?
(2018) [Artigo de periódico]Zika virus (ZIKV) is a health burden due to the severe neurological abnormalities that arise after congenital infection. Although multiple experimental studies have linked ZIKV with neural birth defects, the scientific ... -
