Assessment of Leishmania exposure in blood donors from a non‐endemic urban area: A study in São Paulo

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives According to the World Health Organization, more than 1 billion people are at risk of leishmaniasis in over 89 countries. Environmental changes such as deforestation, urban expansion and climate change facilitate the spread of sand fly vectors and reservoirs, increasing disease transmission.

Exercise‐induced effects on atherogenesis and tryptophan catabolism via the kynurenine pathway in an HIV‐associated atherosclerosis mouse model

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A mouse model of HIV‐associated atherosclerosis (Tg26+/−ApoE−/−) exhibited increased plaque area compared with the ApoE−/− mouse, linked to elevated indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase (IDO) activity. IDO catalyses the conversion of tryptophan (TRP) into kynurenine (KYN), measured by the KYN‐to‐TRP ratio.

Ouabain‐induced hypertension in rats: Mechanisms, variability and translational implications

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ouabain‐induced hypertension is a multifactorial and condition‐dependent phenomenon involving coordinated actions across vascular, renal and central nervous system pathways. At the vascular level, ouabain inhibits Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase, particularly the α2‐isoform, leading to elevated intracellular Ca2⁺, enhanced vasoconstriction and structural ...

Treatment of Chagas disease

, 2010
Abstract Although Chagas disease has existed for at least 9000 years, its treatment is recent: the internationally accepted drugs nifurtimox and benznidazole date from the 1970s. Both drugs are effective in acute cases, in congenital cases, in reactivation of chronic cases, and in new chronic cases. Its usefulness in chronic cases has not been shown,

Biochemical Responses of Anopheles spp. Larvae to a Novel Brazilian BR101 Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis Formulation: Oxidative Stress, Detoxification Enzymes, and Safety for Nontarget Notonectidae and Gerridae Aquatic Insects

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
Bti BR101 exhibits strong larvicidal activity against Anopheles larvae spp., with dose‐dependent mortality and LC50 of 3.13 µg/mL. Bti increases ROS, lipid and protein oxidation, and activates antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GPx) and detoxification pathways (MFO and esterases), indicating moderate oxidative stress.
