Adipose Tissue-Derived Stem Cell Treatment Prevents Renal Disease Progression

Adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) are an attractive source of stem cells with regenerative properties that are similar to those of bone marrow stem cells. Here, we analyze the role of ASCs in reducing the progression of kidney fibrosis. Progressive renal fibrosis was achieved by unilateral clamping of the renal pedicle in mice for 1 h; after that, the kidney was reperfused immediately. Four hours after the surgery, 2 x 10(5) ASCs were intraperitoneally administered, and mice were followed for 24 h posttreatment and then at some other time interval for the next 6 weeks. Also, animals were treated with 2 x 10(5) ASCs at 6 weeks after reperfusion and sacrificed 4 weeks later to study their effect when interstitial fibrosis is already present. At 24 h after reperfusion, ASC-treated animals showed reduced renal dysfunction and enhanced regenerative tubular processes. Renal mRNA expression of IL-6 and TNF was decreased in ASC-treated animals, whereas IL-4. IL-10, and HO-1 expression increased despite a lack of ASCs in the kidneys as determined by SRY analysis. As expected, untreated kidneys shrank at 6 weeks, whereas the kidneys of ASC-treated animals remained normal in size, showed less collagen deposition, and decreased staining for FSP-1, type I collagen, and Hypoxyprobe. the renal protection seen in ASC-treated animals was followed by reduced serum levels of TNF-alpha, KC, RANTES, and IL-1 alpha. Surprisingly, treatment with ASCs at 6 weeks, when animals already showed installed fibrosis, demonstrated amelioration of functional parameters, with less tissue fibrosis observed and reduced mRNA expression of type I collagen and vimentin. ASC therapy can improve functional parameters and reduce progression of renal fibrosis at early and later times after injury, mostly due to early modulation of the inflammatory response and to less hypoxia, thereby reducing the epithelial-mesenchymal transition.Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)DECIT/Ministerio do SaudeComplex Fluids INCTUniversidade Federal de São Paulo, Div Nephrol, Escola Paulista Med, Expt & Clin Immunol Lab, BR-04023900 São Paulo, BrazilUniv São Paulo, Dept Pathol, São Paulo, BrazilUniv Fed Triangulo Mineiro, Div Pathol, Uberaba, MG, BrazilUniv São Paulo, Dept Immunol, Lab Transplantat Immunobiol, São Paulo, BrazilUniversidade Federal de São Paulo, Div Nephrol, Escola Paulista Med, Expt & Clin Immunol Lab, BR-04023900 São Paulo, BrazilFAPESP: 09/13251-6FAPESP: 07/07139-3CNPq: 473844/2009-5Web of Scienc

Gastronomia como vetor de desenvolvimento: um resgate histórico no município de São Borja

Resgatar a história da alimentação e rever o processo cultural gastronômico que ocorreu no município de São Borja é o principal objetivo deste artigo. O município é um dos povoados mais antigos do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, pois seu início se deu no período Jesuítico, por volta do ano de 1682. As questões alimentares e gastronômicas no município são pouco conhecidas, pois não existem pesquisas específicas na temática. Assim, o resgate é imprescindível para que se conheça a história da alimentação no município e trabalhá-la de forma que a gastronomia possa ser tida como um vetor de desenvolvimento local. Este trabalho tem caráter qualitativo/descritivo e para sua realização, utilizou-se a pesquisa bibliográfica e entrevistas. Após a pesquisa, conseguiu-se revificar a evolução da constituição da cultura gastronômica e sua participação no processo de desenvolvimento do município

Endocrine therapy for the treatment of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis in luminal breast cancer: a comprehensive review

Leptomeningeal disease (LMD) represents a devastating complication of advanced breast cancer (ABC), with survival of <5 months with multimodal treatment. The role of endocrine therapy (ET), due to its favorable toxicity profile and first-line indication in luminal ABC, appears promising in the setting of LMD, where symptom stabilization and quality-of-life preservation are the main goals; however, evidenced-based data are lacking. We conducted a thorough review of published evidence, aiming to investigate the role of ET in LMD treatment in luminal ABC. Twenty-one of 342 articles, evaluating 1302 patients, met inclusion criteria. ET use was rarely reported. New targeted agents show CNS activity. Research is lacking on the role of ET and targeted agents in BC-LMD treatment

TLR2, TLR4 and the MYD88 Signaling Pathway Are Crucial for Neutrophil Migration in Acute Kidney Injury Induced by Sepsis

The aim of this study was to investigate the role of TLR2, TLR4 and MyD88 in sepsis-induced AKI. C57BL/6 TLR2(-/-), TLR4(-/-) and MyD88(-/-) male mice were subjected to sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Twenty four hours later, kidney tissue and blood samples were collected for analysis. the TLR2(-/-), TLR4(-/-) and MyD88(-/-) mice that were subjected to CLP had preserved renal morphology, and fewer areas of hypoxia and apoptosis compared with the wild-type C57BL/6 mice (WT). MyD88(-/-) mice were completely protected compared with the WT mice. We also observed reduced expression of proinflammatory cytokines in the kidneys of the knockout mice compared with those of the WT mice and subsequent inhibition of increased vascular permeability in the kidneys of the knockout mice. the WT mice had increased GR1(+low) cells migration compared with the knockout mice and decreased in GR1(+high) cells migration into the peritoneal cavity. the TLR2(-/-), TLR4(-/-), and MyD88(-/-) mice had lower neutrophil infiltration in the kidneys. Depletion of neutrophils in the WT mice led to protection of renal function and less inflammation in the kidneys of these mice. Innate immunity participates in polymicrobial sepsis-induced AKI, mainly through the MyD88 pathway, by leading to an increased migration of neutrophils to the kidney, increased production of proinflammatory cytokines, vascular permeability, hypoxia and apoptosis of tubular cells.Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)National Institute of Science and Technology (INCT)Universidade Federal de São Paulo, Dept Med, Disciplina Nefrol, São Paulo, BrazilUniv São Paulo, Dept Imunol, Lab Imunobiol Transplantes, São Paulo, BrazilHosp Israelita Albert Einstein, IIEP, São Paulo, BrazilUniv Fed Triangulo Mineiro, Uberaba, BrazilUniversidade Federal de São Paulo, Dept Med, Disciplina Nefrol, São Paulo, BrazilFAPESP: 07/07139-3Web of Scienc

Influence of the expression of inflammatory markers on kidney after fetal programming in an experimental model of renal failure

Objective. To evaluate the expression of inflammatory markers in experimental renal failure after fetal programming. Methods. The offspring aged two and fivemonths were divided into four groups: CC (control dams, control offspring)DC (diabetic dams, control offspring)CFA (control dams, folic acid offspring, 250 mg/Kg)and DFA (diabetic dams, folic acid offspring). Gene expression of inflammatory markersMCP-1, IL-1, NOS3, TGF-beta, TNF-alpha, and VEGF was evaluated by RT-PCR. Results. MCP-1 was increased in the CFA and DFA groups at two and fivemonths of age, as well as in DC5 when compared to CC5. There was a higher expression of IL-1 in the CFA2, DFA2, and DC2 groups. There was a decrease in NOS3 and an increase in TNF-alpha in DFA5 in relation to CFA5. The gene expression of TGF-beta increased in cases that had received folic acid at two and five months, and VEGF decreased in the CFA5 and DFA5 groups. DC5 showed increased VEGF expression in comparison with CC5. Conclusions. Gestational diabetes mellitus and folic acid both change the expression of inflammatory markers, thus demonstrating that the exposure to harmful agents in adulthood has a more severe impact in cases which underwent fetal reprogramming.Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cientifico e Tecnologico (CNPq)Coordenacao de Aperfeicoamento de Pessoal de Nivel Superior (CAPES)Fundacao de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de Minas Gerais (FAPEMIG)Fundacao de Ensino e Pesquisa de Uberaba (FUNEPU)Discipline of General Pathology, Institute of Biological and Natural Sciences, Federal University of Triângulo Mineiro, Uberaba, MG, BrazilDepartment of Health Sciences, Lavras Federal University, Lavras, MG, BrazilDiscipline of Physiology, Institute of Biological and Natural Sciences, Federal University of Triângulo Mineiro, Uberaba, MG, BrazilNephrology Division, Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP), São Paulo, SP, BrazilDepartment of Immunology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences IV, University of São Paulo (USP), São Paulo, SP, BrazilDepartment of General Pathology, Institute of Tropical Pathology and Public Health, Federal University of Goiás, Goiânia, GO, BrazilNephrology Division, Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP), São Paulo, SP, BrazilWeb of Scienc

TAXAS DE MATURAÇÃO DE OÓCITOS CONGELADOS LENTAMENTE DE CAPRINOS

The objective was to evaluate the maturation rates of goat oocytes submitted to slow freezing in conventional medium for IVM. For this purpose, cumulus-oocyte complexes aspirated from pubic goat ovaries were classified morphologically and slowly frozen with 1.5 M ethylene glycol. After thawing the cryopreserved oocytes, those classified as viable were matured in conventional in vitro maturation medium. Evaluating the maturation rate, the percentage of matured oocytes in the group that underwent the cryopreservation process is significantly lower (17.6%) when compared to the control group (69.2%), also showing a high percentage of immature oocytes. Several oocyte injuries were found, caused by the studied cryopreservation method, interfering with their oocyte competence. Even with nuclear maturation rates, observed through the extrusion of the first polar corpuscle, the morphologies were altered in most oocytes, and further studies using new techniques and / or other cryoprotectants are necessary.O objetivo foi avaliar as taxas de maturação de oócitos caprinos submetidos ao congelamento lento em meio convencional para IVM. Para tanto, complexos cumulus-oócitos aspirados de ovários púbicos de cabras foram classificados morfologicamente e congelados lentamente com etileno glicol 1,5 M. Após o descongelamento dos oócitos criopreservados, aqueles classificados como viáveis foram maturados em meio convencional de maturação in vitro. Avaliando a taxa de maturação, o percentual de oócitos maturados no grupo que passou pelo processo de criopreservação é significativamente menor (17,6%) quando comparado ao grupo controle (69,2%), apresentando também um alto percentual de oócitos imaturos. Foram encontradas diversas lesões oocitárias, causadas pelo método de criopreservação estudado, interferindo na sua competência oocitária. Mesmo com as taxas de maturação nuclear, observadas através da extrusão do primeiro corpúsculo polar, as morfologias foram alteradas na maioria dos ovócitos, sendo necessários mais estudos utilizando novas técnicas e/ou outros crioprotetores

Adapted Portuguese folk dance intervention for subacute rehabilitation post-stroke: study protocol

Dance can be an innovative, well-accepted, and effective therapy for stroke survivors. The present protocol aims to assess the feasibility of adapted Portuguese folk dance as a post stroke rehabilitative activity. We will use a mixed-methods pilot study convenience sampling to recruit 16 stroke survivors with mild–moderate lower limb paresis from a rehabilitation center in Lisbon and Tagus Valley. In addition to usual care, participants will attend 3 days per week 1-h dance exercise for 8 weeks. The dance style used for this intervention will be an adaptation of the Portuguese folk dance. Assessment will be conducted before and immediately after the program intervention. Acceptability will be assessed by four key domains (enrollment, retention, satisfaction, and recommendation to others). Safety will be assessed based on the number and type of adverse events. Feasibility will be assessed based on balance performance and functional mobility. Quantitative data will be analyzed through descriptive statistics for sample characterization, followed by inferential statistics to evaluate differences in the balance recovery and functional mobility scores between the initial and final assessment. Qualitative data will be analyzed using an inductive process of content analysis. The Portuguese folk dance program has the potential to improve balance outcomes and functional mobility. Our results will help validate Portuguese folk dance as a tool for rehabilitation settings for stroke survivors. The potential of our program to enhance balance outcomes and functional mobility among stroke survivors bears implications for aging and public health initiatives. Positive results from this study could pave the way for integrating dance-based rehabilitative activities into standard stroke rehabilitation protocols, catering to older stroke survivors’ specific needs and preferences
