How can policymakers and researchers develop effective insect resistance management guidelines? A quantitative and qualitative study of Brazilian farmers' perspectives and attitudes

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 722-735, September 2023., 2023
Today, over 80% of the US and Brazil row crop acreage has plants expressing insecticidal proteins to prevent the damage caused by caterpillars. These plants (crops expressing Bacillus thuringiensis, Bt, toxins) have brought several benefits to farmers, the environment, and society.

Evaluation of the theoretical risk of cross‐reactivity among recently identified food allergens for dogs

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 523-526, December 2022., 2022
Background: There is increasing evidence of cross‐reactivity between allergens of close or distant species. The A‐RISC (Allergens'–Relative Identity, Similarity and Cross‐reactivity) index helps evaluate the risk of theoretical cross‐reactivity between proteins of the same family among different species.

Laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double‐flap technique versus laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy for proximal early gastric cancer

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 252-259, April 2020., 2020
Laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double‐flap technique is different from laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy in terms of preventing problems involving the small intestine and anaemia after surgery for proximal early gastric cancer. However, these procedures are comparable for other outcomes, even though they are opposing procedures.

Dysregulation of the actin scavenging system and inhibition of DNase activity following severe thermal injury

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 391-401, March 2020., 2020
Circulating cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) is not found in healthy subjects but is readily detected after thermal injury and may contribute to the risk of multiple organ failure. The authors hypothesized that a postburn reduction in DNase protein/enzyme activity could contribute to the increase in cfDNA after thermal injury.

Hapten‐directed spontaneous disulfide shuffling: a universal technology for site‐directed covalent coupling of payloads to antibodies

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 29, Issue 5, Page 1763-1779, May 2015., 2015
ABSTRACT Humanized hapten‐binding IgGs were designed with an accessible cysteine close to their binding pockets, for specific covalent payload attachment. Individual analyses of known structures of digoxigenin (Dig)‐ and fluorescein (Fluo) binding antibodies and a new structure of a biotin (Biot)‐binder, revealed a “universal” coupling position (52+2 ...

pCramoll and rCramoll as New Preventive Agents against the Oxidative Dysfunction Induced by Hydrogen Peroxide

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the induction of cell death and is associated with various pathologic disorders; therefore, the search for natural products that attenuate the effects produced by oxidant agents is greatly increased. Here, the protective effects of native lectin from Cratylia mollis seeds (pCramoll) and recombinant Cramoll 1 (

Socioeconomic drivers of wild meat consumption in the city of Iquitos, Peru

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Wild meat represents a vital source of micro‐ and macronutrients for forest‐dwelling people; however, city dwellers with access to animal protein from different animals may also consume large amounts of wild meat as part of their customs and traditions, to diversify their diets, to maintain connections to their rural kin, and to access meat ...

C‐reactive protein (CRP) in high altitude Bolivian peri‐urban adolescents varies by adiposity, current illness, height, socioeconomic status, sex, and menarcheal status: The potential benefits and costs of adipose reserves in arduous environments

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 36, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Objectives In non‐industrialized and low‐income populations, adipose stores can serve as a valuable buffer against harsh conditions such as seasonal food scarcity. However, these reserves may incur costs due to adipocytes' production of pro‐inflammatory cytokines; inflammation is associated with increased risk for cardiometabolic diseases ...

Perceptions and reality in fisher coexistence with aquatic predators in the Peruvian Amazon

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 566-579, August 2024.
The perceptions and reality of ‘human–wildlife conflict’ are infrequently compared, but this relationship is key to determining how negative outcomes can be mitigated. We trained fishers to complete fishing registers to record damage to nets by six large aquatic piscivores (two caiman, two dolphins, two otters) in Amazonian Peru, and compared these ...
