Efeitos do treinamento resistido sobre secreação de testosterona e cortisol: uma revisão bibliográfica

You can set the resistance training such as making a move against a resistance by performing a muscle contraction and generating a muscular adaptation. This form of training, was initially used only in training athletes aiming to strengthen and improve fitness. Some coaches did not give proper focus, as the increase in muscle mass would cause loss of flexibility and agility. But over time a huge evolution occurred within this area and the practitioners of resistance training are no longer just athletes, and reached the whole community, from young to elderly, being a physical activity that generates a large caloric expenditure and has several health benefits, improve the cardiovascular system and decreasing the amount of body fat in the body. Cortisol is a hormone secreted from a stressful stimulus to the body, secretion undergoes control of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, which releases the hormone into the bloodstream andrenocorticotrópico, going to the adrenal cortex responsible for their release. This has catabolic function, acting in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids, as well as having an important effect antiflamatório. Testosterone is a steroid hormone cholesterol from being produced by the testicles in men, as in women is produced to a lesser extent in ovary and adrenal glands, has functions androgenic and anabolic. Androgen function is responsible for the development of male sexual characteristics, while on anabolic function operates in the growth of muscles and bones, influencing the development of the human body organs. Within the metabolic changes that occur in the resistance training testosterone plays an important role in protein synthesis, influencing the production of strength and / or power during exercise. The objective of this work is through a literature review to assess the effects of resistance training on the production of these hormones and the relationship between them

Indústria frigorífica halal no Brasil, mão-de-obra islamita e estado de exceção

In the last decade, Brazilian meat export rates for Muslim religious countries have increased, and also has the immigration of Africans workers able to perform the slaughter following the precepts of Islam - religion that has expanded in the world, and thus, has the halal food segment. Halal, the Islamic ideology, means lawful, authorized by God: are those products that Allah in the Holy Qur'an releases for human consumption. To get halal certification some measures during slaughter/processing food should be taken. In the case of the slaughterhouses the animal must be slaughtered by a Muslim. Consequently, the demand for this skilled labor makes many African-Muslims get jobs in factories owned by BRF Foods, JBS and Marfrig; refugees and with their citizenship rights committed, these individuals live in a socio-political state of exception and overexploitation. In this study we intend to discuss the object of study Islamist workforce in Brazilian halal meat industry using the theoretical reflections of Giorgio Agamben (Homo Sacer in 2002, and State of Exception, 2004) and David Harvey (The Condition of Postmodernity, 2008, and The New Imperialism, 2004) to address the situation of immigrants in the meat business in Brazil, specially those on the halal certification segment, whose working and living conditions were described from academic studies and primary sources (articles in newspapers / magazines, websites, immigration official data). In addition we use the works of Rogério Heasbaert (O mito da desterritorialização, 2007) and Robert Kurz (Os paradoxos dos direitos humanos: inclusão e exclusão na modernidade, 2003) to discuss human mobility in this new century

Estudo das propriedades ópticas de pós cerâmicos à base de Zn3Ga2Ge2O10: X% Cr3+ (X = 0 ; 0,5 ; 0,75 ; 1,0)

Ceramic powders based on Zn3Ga2Ge2O10: Cr3+ X% (X = 0.0; 0.5; 0.75; 1.0) were synthesized by solid-state reaction method. The gallium-zinc germanate doped with chromium presents an interesting property of phosphorescence, that means, it is capable of emitting light when excited by a source of radiation, and such emission remains for some time after stopping the source. For this reason, these materials can be widely applied in night-vision surveillance, (through the use of solar energy, for example), electronic devices screen, emergency routes signals, control panels indicators in dark environments, etc. In this job were considered different amounts of dopant in order to perform a comparison of structural and photoluminescent properties. For that, some analyses were performed on samples, such as XRD, FT-Raman, SEM, UV-vis and photoluminescence measurements (PL). Such analysis allowed to infer that the presence of chromium results in no phase transformation, so that the four compositions have the same set of phases: cubic, rhombohedral and hexagonal. Although the structure was not changed, chromium influences other properties / characteristics of these materials. Examples are: increase of band-gap, decrease of average particle size, small changes in binding energy checked by Raman and especially the increase of photoluminescent property. The chromium ions have great ease in replacing gallium ions in octahedral sites, resulting in emission of light with a wavelength of about 700 nm (infrared region), which is justified by the spin-forbidden 2E 4A2 transition. In other words, chromium is a favorable luminescent center, acting as a trap in the crystal structure, since it imprisons the excitation energy easily and releases it gradually, allowing the phosphorescence. It was observed that the composition ... (Complete abastract click electronic access below)

Citotoxicidade de membranas à base de ácido polilático e poli-ε-caprolactona com a incorporação de fosfato de lantânio e oxiapatita dopada com lantânio

Desde a antiguidade, enxertos e membranas são estudados para promoverem um reparo ósseo otimizado. O reparo ósseo consiste na reabsorção do tecido necrosado e de seu coágulo, juntamente com um processo inflamatório que libera fatores de crescimento que irão reparar o osso danificado. Em algumas situações, o osso lesionado não tem a capacidade de se auto reparar, portanto, são necessárias intervenções cirúrgicas para inserir um enxerto ósseo. Entretanto, há uma grande dificuldade em se encontrar um material que forneça os fatores necessários para o crescimento ósseo. Para isso, foram confeccionadas membranas à base de ácido polilático e poli-ε-caprolactona (PLC) (Purasorb: PLC 7015 - Purac, Holanda), com a incorporação de fosfato de lantânio (PLC/LaPO4) e oxiapatita dopada com 20% de lantânio (PLC/La20OAP) pelo Instituto de Química de Araraquara, UNESP. Assim, o objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a citotoxicidade desses materiais por meio dos testes XTT e sobrevivência clonogênica. Os eluatos foram preparados com as membranas citadas de acordo com a ISO 10993-12. O cloridrato de doxorrubicina foi utilizado como controle positivo para ambos os testes. Como Controle Negativo (CN) foram utilizadas somente as células CHO-K1 (sem a ação de qualquer tratamento) por 24 horas. Os eluatos foram mantidos em contato com células CHO-K1 por 24 horas. Como os dados apresentaram aderência à curva normal, foi aplicada a análise de variância (ANOVA) one-way, seguido dos testes de Tukey e Dunnett (p<0,05). Verificou-se que os materiais testados não demonstraram absorbância estatisticamente diferente em relação ao CN (p>0,05; Dunnett - XTT) e também não causaram comprometimento na capacidade proliferativa das células (p>0,05; Dunnett - Sobrevivência clonogênica). Assim, pode-se concluir que as amostras de PLC, PLC/LaPO4 e PLC/La20OAP não apresentaram citotoxicidade em células CHO-K1.
