Efecto del método de extracción de antocianinas de la flor de Jamaica (Hibiscus sabdariffa) en la eficiencia de celdas solares sensibilizadas
Los pigmentos naturales se cree son una opción viable como materiales fotosensibles en celdas solares electroquímicas. El presente trabajo evalúa el efecto del método de extracción y purificación de los pigmentos de la flor de jamaica (Hibiscus sabdariffa) en la eficiencia energética de celdas solares electroquímicas. Para el efecto los pigmentos fueron extraídos con metanol acidificado utilizando tres diferentes ácidos, el ácido clorhídrico, ácido cítrico y ácido trifluoroacético. La evaluación del contenido de antocianinas totales reveló que el ácido clorhídrico es el más eficiente en el proceso de extracción. Mediante técnicas de cromatografía se identificaron dos antocianinas en los extractos de la flor de Jamaica, la cianidina 3-sambubiósido y la delfinidina 3-sambubiósido. La evaluación de la eficiencia de conversión energética de celdas solares sensibilizadas con estos pigmentos reveló que el la extracción con ácido clorhídrico produce celdas con mayor eficiencia. Mediante un proceso de purificación con hexano se determinó que los residuos no polares existentes en los extractos no influyen en el desempeño de la celda, sin embargo residuos del solvente aparentemente la afectan. Finalmente se determinó que las celdas solares no tienen gran estabilidad en el tiempo, teniendo una tendencia creciente en las primeras 72 horas y un posterior decrecimiento

Avaliação dos parâmetros de estresse oxidativo induzidos pelo antineoplásico doxorrubicina em linhagens da levedura Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Grape juice increases the BDNF levels but not alter the S100B levels in hippocampus and frontal cortex from male Wistar rats
Several studies have shown that a high consumption of vegetables and fruits is consistently associated with a low risk of oxidative stress-induced diseases, which includes some degenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer and Parkinson. Therefore, the objective of this study is to verify the effects of conventional and organic grape juice in the modulation of the neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and astrocytic markers protein (S100B) in hippocampus and frontal cortex of Wistar rats. In this study, 24 male Wistar rats were divided into three groups. To the first one, it was given organic purple grape juice; to the second, conventional grape juice, while the last one received only saline. After 30 days, all rats were sacrificed and hippocampus and frontal cortex were dissected. The animals that received organic and conventional grape juice showed, in frontal cortex, an elevated BNDF levels in relation to saline group. However, S100B levels did not change. These results showed that grape juices are able to modulate important marker in brain tissue, and could be an important factor to prevent brain diseases

Targeting inflammatory-mitochondrial response in major depression : current evidence and further challenges
The prevalence of psychiatric disorders has increased in recent years. Among existing mental disorders, major depressive disorder (MDD) has emerged as one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, affecting individuals throughout their lives. Currently, MDD affects 15% of adults in the Americas. Over the past 50 years, pharmacotherapy, psychotherapy, and brain stimulation have been used to treat MDD. The most common approach is still pharmacotherapy; however, studies show that about 40% of patients are refractory to existing treatments. Although the monoamine hypothesis has been widely accepted as a molecular mechanism to explain the etiology of depression, its relationship with other biochemical phenomena remains only partially understood. This is the case of the link between MDD and inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oxidative stress. Studies have found that depressive patients usually exhibit altered inflammatory markers, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, oxidized mitochondrial DNA, and thus high levels of both central and peripheral reactive oxygen species (ROS). The effect of antidepressants on these events remains unclear. Nevertheless, the effects of ROS on the brain are well known, including lipid peroxidation of neuronal membranes, accumulation of peroxidation products in neurons, protein and DNA damage, reduced antioxidant defenses, apoptosis induction, and neuroinflammation. Antioxidants such as ascorbic acid, tocopherols, and coenzyme Q have shown promise in some depressive patients, but without consensus on their efficacy. Hence, this paper provides a review of MDD and its association with inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oxidative stress and is aimed at thoroughly discussing the putative links between these events, which may contribute to the design and development of new therapeutic approaches for patients
Occupational risk assessment of oxidative stress and genotoxicity in workers exposed to paints during a working week
Objectives: Paints are complex mixtures of solvents and metals that can induce health damages in workers exposed to them. The aim of the present work was to evaluate possible oxidative and genotoxic effects in workers exposed to paints. Material and Methods: Peripheral blood and buccal cell samples were collected from 33 workers exposed to paints and 29 non-exposed workers (controls) during an ordinary working week (Monday morning and Friday evening). Oxidative markers were assessed using thiobarbituric acid assay, carbonylated proteins, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities. Hippuric acid and delta-aminolevulinic acid were determined as biomarkers of toluene and lead exposure, respectively. Genotoxicity was measured through comet assay and micronucleus (MN) frequencies. Results: The exposed group showed higher hippuric acid and delta-aminolevulinic acid levels (Friday samples) and lower superoxide dismutase activity (Monday samples) in relation to control group. DNA damage index (comet assay) was higher in the exposed group, both in Monday and Friday samples, compared to the control group. No differences were observed in frequency of micronuclei (MN) between the groups, either in lymphocytes or buccal cells. However, the exposed group presented an increase (Monday samples) in nuclear buds frequency in lymphocytes — a marker of gene amplification — as well as an increase in condensed chromatin in the buccal cells (Monday and Friday samples), suggesting induction of apoptosis. Furthermore, a decrease in the nuclear division index (Friday samples) was observed in the exposed group, indicating that paint exposure induces cytostatic effects in lymphocytes. Conclusion: The results suggest that individuals exposed to paints have increased levels of DNA damage
