Moringa oleifera is a plant recognized for its compounds such as dietary fiber (oligosaccharides, amongst others) and polyphenols, with biological activities. These properties depend on bioactive compounds (BC) interactions with food matrix/digestion...
Exposure to cigarette smoke and ethanol are proposed to trigger neurotoxicity, apoptosis, and to impair neuronal signaling. However, it is little known how the combination of both might trigger astrogliosis and the morphological changes capable of af...

This study evaluated the viability of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and its in vitro and in vivo resistance to the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) when carried by a mixed fermented pineapple and jussara juice. The effects of product ingestion on the ...
To assess the effect of epinephrine-containing local anesthetics on vasoconstriction, we immunohistochemically measured the intravascular lumen area in different regions of the mandible. Twelve male Wistar rats were used. General anesthesia was induc...
BACKGROUND: Brain death (BD) in potential organ donors is responsible for hemodynamic instability and organ hypoperfusion, leading to myocardial dysfunction. Hypertonic saline (HS) is a volume expander with positive effects on hemodynamics and immuno...
BACKGROUND: Oxygen/ozone therapy is a minimally invasive technique for the treatment of radiculitis from lumbar disc herniation. This study aimed at investigating whether intrathecal administration of low-concentration oxygen/ozone could attenuate ch...
This research assessed the seasonal variation of the chemical composition and antibacterial and anticholinesterase activities of essential oils extracted from leaves. The leaves organic fractions were also investigated for their biological activitie...
