Müller Glia maintain their regenerative potential despite degeneration in the aged zebrafish retina. [PDF]

Aging Cell, 2022
Our data show that aged, molecularly and morphologically altered MG can still be stimulated to regenerate in response to an acute damage, highlighting key differences in MG response when compared to the chronic damage in ageing. Abstract Ageing is a significant risk factor for degeneration of the retina.

Distribution of Adiponectin Receptors 1 and 2 in the Rat Olfactory Bulb and the Effect of Adiponectin Injection on Insulin Receptor Expression. [PDF]

Int J Endocrinol, 2017
Background. Adiponectin (APN) is an adipocyte‐derived hormone that has peripheral beneficial effects. Although its receptors AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 are expressed in the brain, their function in neurons is poorly understood. The aims of this work were to describe the distribution of APN receptors in the olfactory bulb (OB) as well as the possible effects ...

Microsomal prostaglandin E synthase‐1 is involved in the metabolic and cardiovascular alterations associated with obesity

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 179, Issue 11, Page 2733-2753, June 2022., 2022
Background and Purpose Microsomal prostaglandin E synthase‐1 (mPGES‐1) is an inducible isomerase responsible for prostaglandin E2 production in inflammatory conditions. We evaluated the role of mPGES‐1 in the development and the metabolic and cardiovascular alterations of obesity.

Effects of Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) on Stiffness of Hot Asphalt Mixtures

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
In recent years, Chile’s vehicle fleet has undergone great changes, with 25% growth in motor vehicles. This increase is directly related to improvements in the performance of flexible pavements, which make infrastructure less susceptible to permanent deformations and/or cracking at high and low temperatures, respectively.

PCR‐Based Detection and Genotyping of Helicobacter pylori in Endoscopic Biopsy Samples from Brazilian Patients

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is considered the second most prevalent infection in man. A precise diagnosis is important for treating patients with the indicative gastrointestinal symptoms. The present study analyzes the effectiveness of a molecular biology method (PCR) comparing the results obtained with the histology and with the rapid urease tests.
