Pituitary chromophobe carcinoma in a dog: clinical, tomographic and hispopathological findings

A 9 year old, male mixed-breed dog was presented for evaluation of oral dysphagia and progressive aggressiveness towards the owner and the operators. The aim of this work is to describe clinical, tomographic and histopathologic features of pituitary chromophobe carcinoma in a dog. At the clinical examination the patient was normothermic, polypnoic (>50 apm) and tachycardic (>140 bpm). The neurological evaluation revealed normal postural reaction and normal cranial/spinal reflexes, mental depression, aggressiveness and crotaphyte muscles atrophy. Due to the impossibility to establish a specific neuronal localization, the diagnostic procedure included blood analysis with leukocyte formula, chest x-rays and abdominal ultrasound, with no relevant findings detected. Due to the aggressiveness and the mental depression after five days the patient was referred for brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). MRI revealed an intense ventricular asymmetry, discrete left deviation of the falx cerebri, enlargement of the third ventricle and the presence of a large (18x20x15mm) spheroidal mass in the sellar/parasellar region charcterized by isointense on T1 weighted images and discretely hyperintense on T2 weighted and FLAIR. In the dorso-lateral portion of the mass, a circular lesion (6 mm diameter) characterized by intense signal hyperintensity on T2 weighted images was detected After intravenously paramagnetic contrast medium administration, the mass showed dishomogeneous intense enhancement. A pituitary macroadenoma (invasive adenoma/adenocarcinoma) characterized by the presence of a necrotic/cystic lesion was suspected. Because of the invasive natur of the lesion the owner decided to euthanize the patient. Brain histopathology was performed, confirming the presence of a pituitary chromophobe carcinoma. Pituitary carcinomas have been rarely observed in old dogs, moreover, cases of pituitary neoplasm with intense cellular pleomorphism and elevate mitotic index in absence of metastatic lesions are extremely rare. These neoplasms can cause serious functional disorders due to the destruction of the pars distalis of the neurohypophysis. In humans the distinction between invasive adenoma and pituitary adenocarcinoma is based on the finding of intracranial or systemic metastasis .It is believed that adenocarcinoma originate from malignant transformation of pre-existing adenoma, after a variable latency period. In the presented case, despite the absence of systemic and intracranial metastasis, the infiltrating growth pattern and the presence of neoplastic cells that arrive and surround the third ventricle, together with the intense cellular pleomorphism, guided the diagnosis to a malignant transformation of the neoplasm

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to evaluate agronomic characteristics for the development of sunflower hybrids grown in the region of Campo Novo do Parecis - MT. The experiment was carried out and conducted between the months of February to June 2015 in the experimental area of the production sector of the Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de Mato Grosso, - IFMT, Campo Novo do Parecis - MT (latitude S 13°40'31" longitude W 57°53'31" and average altitude of 574 m). The predominant soil is Typic Tropudox. The experimental design was randomized blocks with 13 treatments (hybrids) and four repetitions, resulting in 52 plots. The sunflower agronomic traits evaluated were: days to initial flowering, days to physiological maturity, plant height, stem curvature, number of lodged plants, number of broken plants and achenes productivity. Data were subjected to analysis of variance and average test Scott-Knott (p<0.05). The hybrid BRS G44 showed good yield, early maturity and low height in second summer crop conditions in Campo Novo do Parecis (MT). Thus, this hybrid is a good option for sunflower cultivation in the region

A rare case of pituitary chromophobe carcinoma in a dog: clinical, tomographic and histopathological findings

A 9 year old male mixed-breed dog was presented for progressive aggressiveness towards the owner. The neurological evaluation was consistent with a forebrain syndrome. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the brain revealed enlargement of the third ventricle and presence of a large spheroidal neoplasm in the sellar/parasellar region suggestive of a pituitary macroadenoma. On the owner request, the dog was euthanized. Histopathological examination revealed the presence of a pituitary chromophobe carcinoma. To the author’s knowledge, pituitary carcinomas have been rarely described in dogs, especially the chromophobe subtype

Antifungal activity of amphotericin B conjugated to nanosized magnetite in the treatment of paracoccidioidomycosis

This study reports on in vitro and in vivo tests that sought to assess the antifungal activity of a newly developed magnetic carrier system comprising amphotericin B loaded onto the surface of pre-coated (with a double-layer of lauric acid) magnetite nanoparticles. The in vitro tests compared two drugs; i.e., this newly developed form and free amphotericin B. We found that this nanocomplex exhibited antifungal activity without cytotoxicity to human urinary cells and with low cytotoxicity to peritoneal macrophages. We also evaluated the efficacy of the nanocomplex in experimental paracoccidioidomycosis. BALB/c mice were intratracheally infected with Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and treated with the compound for 30 or 60 days beginning the day after infection. The newly developed amphotericin B coupled with magnetic nanoparticles was effective against experimental paracoccidioidomycosis, and it did not induce clinical, biochemical or histopathological alterations. The nanocomplex also did not induce genotoxic effects in bone marrow cells. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe that amphotericin B coupled to magnetic nanoparticles and stabilized with bilayer lauric acid is a promising nanotool for the treatment of the experimental paracoccidioidomycosis because it exhibited antifungal activity that was similar to that of free amphotericin B, did not induce adverse effects in therapeutic doses and allowed for a reduction in the number of applications

Performance of sunflower cultivars at different seeding periods in central Brazil.

ABSTRACT: Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is a very important crop for Brazil, and especially for Chapada do Parecis which is the largest domestic producer, because of its climate and soil conditions are adequate to the development of the specie. The performance of cultivars and sunflower seed sowing periods were evaluated in Central Brazil. Experimental design comprised an 8 x 5 factorial randomized complete block, with eight sunflower cultivars (Aguará 06, Aguará 04, MG 305, CF 101, SYN 3950HO, SYN 045, GNZ NEON and HELIO 251) and five decennial seeding periods, with three replicates. Analysis of variance and Scott-Knott´s test (p<0.05) were applied. Cultivars GNZ NEON and SYN 045 provide the highest production rates in achenes, with higher value in favor of GNZ NEON. SYN 3950HO (this with higher value), CF101, MG 305, SYN 045 and Aguará 04 gets the highest oil rates in the achenes, with SYN 045, GNZ NEON, Aguará 04, CF101 and SYN 3950HO with the highest oil production. The first seed sowing period is the most productive and the first and fifth periods have the best results for oil productivity. Cultivar GNZ NEON and the first period exceede the others with regard to vegetative and reproductive variables. RESUMO: O girassol (Helianthus annuus L.) é uma cultura de grande importância para o Brasil, e especialmente para Chapada do Parecis, que é o maior produtor nacional, em virtude das suas condições edafoclimáticas serem propicias ao desenvolvimento da espécie. Objetivou-se avaliar o desempenho de cultivares e épocas de semeadura do girassol no Brasil Central. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o de blocos casualizados, em esquema fatorial 8 x 5, sendo oito cultivares de girassol (Aguará 06, Aguará 04, MG 305, CF 101, SYN 3950HO, SYN 045, NEON e HELIO 251) e cinco épocas decendiais de semeadura, com três repetições. Aplicou-se análise de variância e teste Scott-Knott (p<0,05). As cultivares GNZ NEON e SYN 045 proporcionaram maiores produtividades de aquênios, com valor superior em favor da GNZ NEON. A SYN 3950HO (esta com valor superior), CF101, MG 305, SYN 045 e Aguará 04, obtiveram os maiores teores de óleo nos aquênios. A 1ª época de semeadura foi a mais produtiva, assim como a 1ª e a 5ª épocas apresentaram os melhores resultados para produtividade de óleo. A cultivar GNZ NEON e a 1ª época foram as que se destacaram das demais, tanto para as variáveis vegetativas como para as reprodutivas.Made available in DSpace on 2017-11-30T23:21:53Z (GMT).
