Avaliação da eficácia dos biocurativos em ratos wistar com lesões de pele causadas por queimaduras

Accidents caused by thermal, chemical, electrical or radioactive agents cause skin lesions causing burns of varying degrees. The therapeutic approach aims to restore damaged tissues and involves a wide range of products on the market. This study aims to evaluate the use of biological dressing, biotech product developed at the Blood Center of Botucatu / UNESP obtained from fresh frozen plasma or platelet concentrate with in vitro addition of thrombin and calcium gluconate. This addition in the platelet concentrate, intended to release the active growth factors of the platelets granules on the healing process. The study of the effectiveness of Platelet Gel home made in Wistar rats was established, in agreement with scald burns, comparing efficacy and cost of Platelet Gel with usual hospital -based treatment collagenase + chloramphenicol plus cost analysis through pharmacoeconomics. We used 25 Wistar rats were divided into 3 treatment groups: Group A, Collagenase + Chloramphenicol; Group B, Platelet Gel and C, control. The products were applied every other day for 30 days in animals. In group A, there was the presence of erythema and crust in all animals. The exudates was indentified 2/10 animals. For the Group B, we observed the presence of erythema and crust at all and no presence of exudates. In group C all the animals showed erythema with no presence of exudates and scab occurred in 1/10. Statistical analysis showed significant difference ( p < 0.0 ) for crust formation between Groups B and C. In the histological analysis, group A showed a slight amount of blood vessels and collagen fibers, moderate amounts of macrophages and fibroblasts was observed while B and C groups showed moderate amounts of blood vessels, macrophages and fibroblasts and discreet presence of collagen fibers. The re-epithelialization occurred in most animals of all groups without significant statistical differences. For the aspects of pharmacoeconomics, the platelet gel presented a better cost - effectiveness in relation to treatment based on collagenase / chloramphenicol. In light of the ethical aspects of the raw material is the result of spontaneous blood donation, the proposal should have biological dressings productions the responsibility of public blood transfusion centers for free distribution. This may point to the production chain of Brazilian blood banks like special blood components for use no intravenous.

Principais mecanismos envolvidos na maturação oocitária em bovinos: da oogenese a maturação in vitro

Despite the efforts made to improve the production of bovine embryos in vitro, their efficiency is still low, since only 30-40% of developed blastocysts are obtained from oocytes after in vitro maturation (IVM), fertilization and cultured embryos. Assisted reproductive technologies have a limiting impact due a lack of oocytes capable to fertilization.The comprehension of mechanism involved in oocyte maturation are crucial to establish a culture system that allows a larger number production of good quality embryos. The study of the early stages of oocyte and follicle development in vivo is important for a better understanding of the molecular pathways that regulate oogenesis, folliculogenesis and oocyte maturation. Thus the physiological biochemical and molecular mechanisms involved in maturation may contribute to the increased efficiency of in vitro embryo production. Therefore, the aim of this literature review is to understand the basic mechanisms that underlie oocyte maturation in cattle, since oocyte and follicle cells in vivo formation to its use in the in vitro environment.
