Histological and histochemical characterization of the midgut of healthy Aedes aegypti larvae
(2018) [Artigo de periódico]Aedes aegypti (Diptera, Culicidae) is the predominant mosquito vector of several arboviruses such as dengue fever, yellow fever, chikungunya and zika. The larval stage is the major period of feeding and growth of these ... -
Interneurons : role in maintaining and restoring synaptic plasticity
(2016) [Artigo de periódico]Inhibitory circuits play an important role in synaptic plasticity during development and adulthood. Changes in interneuronal activity induce structural and synaptic rearrangements of inhibitory interneurons, network ... -
Ascogregarina (Apicomplexa: Lecudinidae) : an overview of its distribution and pathogenicity on Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus development
(2018) [Artigo de periódico]As ascogregarinas são protozoários, pertencentes ao ilo Apicomplexa, que parasitam várias espécies de invertebrados, incluindo algumas importantes espécies de mosquitos envolvidas na transmissão de arboviroses, como dengue, ... -
Responses of water mite assemblages (Acari) to environmental parameters at irrigated rice cultivation fields and native lakes
(2017) [Artigo de periódico]Many studies have revealed that water mite communities can be affected by the physical and chemical parameters of the water. The similarity between the water ‘mite assemblages in local water bodies and in irrigated rice ... -
Master regulators connectivity map : a transcription factors-centered approach to drug repositioning
(2018) [Artigo de periódico]Drug discovery is a very expensive and time-consuming endeavor. Fortunately, recent omics technologies and Systems Biology approaches introduced interesting new tools to achieve this task, facilitating the repurposing of ... -
NTPDase, 5′-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase activities and purine levels in serum of sickle cell anemia patients
(2018) [Artigo de periódico]Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a hereditary disorder that is characterized by tendency of hemoglobin molecules within the erythrocytes to polymerize under hypoxia conditions, deform the red cells, and promote vaso-occlusion ... -
Androgen receptor isoforms expression in benign prostatic hyperplasia and primary prostate cancer
(2018) [Artigo de periódico]The role of molecular changes in the androgen receptor (AR) as AR variants (AR-Vs) is not clear in the pathophysiology of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and hormone-naïve PCa. The aim of the current work was to identify ... -
Normal ATXN3 allele but not CHIP polymorphisms modulates age at onset in Machado–Joseph disease
(2012) [Artigo de periódico]Background: Age at onset (AO) in Machado–Joseph disease (MJD) is closely associated with the length of the CAG repeat at the mutant ATXN3 allele, but there are other intervening factors. Experimental evidence indicates ... -
Peripheral oxidative stress biomarkers in spinocerebellar ataxia type 3/Machado–Joseph disease
(2017) [Artigo de periódico]Objectives: Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3/Machado–Joseph disease (SCA3/MJD) is a polyglutamine disorder with no current disease-modifying treatment. Conformational changes in mutant ataxin-3 trigger different pathogenic ... -
Sistematização das artérias da base do encéfalo em nutria (Myocastor coypus)
(2018) [Artigo de periódico]Background: The nutria (Myocastor coypus) is a medium-size, semi-aquatic rodent, valued in skin and meat industry. The brain circulation has been well studied in rodents but not in nutria. To understand and compare the ...
