Bacillus thuringiensis is an environmental bacteria that produces a group of crystallizable proteins (Cry) that are toxic for several insects and worms species. Recently, it was described a novel class of Cry proteins called parasporins (PS) that showed cytotoxic effects on animal and human tumor cells. Six types of PS have been described so far, PS1 to PS6, and their cytotoxic activity has been studied. However, the direct effect on tumor cells has been the current research focus, while the immunomodulatory role of the PS has not been studied yet. Therefore, this study aimed to verify whether PS of TC 2.3.1R6 B. thuringiensis strain has immunostimulatory activity on human lymphocytes and monocytes. We have evaluated the protein toxicity against human cells, the lymphoproliferative activity and the effects on peripheral blood monocytes. The PS-PK showed no toxic or stimulating activity on lymphocyte proliferation. However, it inhibited the spontaneous production of IL-10 as well as ConA-induced and the production of IFN-γ. PS-PK decreased the release of hydrogen peroxide and increased the production of TNF- α by monocytes. PS-PK performed inhibitory production of hydrogen peroxide and TNF-α by monocytes, whereas PS-Tp showed stimulation of the production of hydrogen and TNF-α

This study is the result of a bibliographical research on the performance of the Third Sector in the current society. From references the study tried to locate the sprouting of the Third Sector in the international scene, whit the bankruptcy of welfare state, until its insertion in the Brazilian scene. Following this historical context, the paper of Communitarian Communication, Social Marketing and Communitarian Public Relations is discussed the importance of the communication of this Sector. Moreover, it has the effort of making one brief conceptualization and definition of the present terms. Working whit the concepts of Communitarian Communication and Communitarian Public Relations the study tried to focus the importance of creating a bond whit the development of a new educational model. Finally, the relation and the paper of the Communication in the construction of a new conception of citizenship was discussed. The hypothesis that crossed this study with respect to the potentialities of the Third Sector are considered an answer to the current social economic and political questions. Confiding, thus, a dynamic and stimulating field for the professional of Public Relations that, opposing what some studies had tries to show, are not necessarily the service of the market or private interests, but can collaborate whit its expertise to help to rescues the ethical values capable to change the life into a more solidary society

This article aims to discuss the use of business games for educational purposes taking into account evidence about the difficulty in managing financial resources. The use of business games is justified because the young generation tha are coming to the education system have grown up using business games, allowing a more motivating learning environment and stimulating investment and on how the concept to provide learning. Instead of pushing content well defined and wel-formatted for the student, promotes the use of games promote at the same time, a chalenge whose solution entails learning effort. Thus, the use of games affect educators, students and aducational institutions, requiring them new attitudes and patterns of thought about schooling. The elaboration of this article was based on experiences gained with the development and use of games for educational purposes, specifically the game "Mercado Virtual". Several articles have been published on research with indergraduates and postgraduate courses in business administration and engineering field. They have shown that the evaluation of the player, based on their decisions during the game, to detect specific aspects of learning. This exploratory research is based on data obteained in various experiments with the game Mercado Virtual.

Os extraordinários avanços no desempenho de técnicas laboratoriais corroboram na evolução do entendimento dos mecanismos das doen- ças de modo geral, facilitando o tratamento e/ou a prevenção. De fato, informações equilibradas, acuradas e atuais estão colaborando de forma estimulante no estudo da relação entre doença periodontal e periapical crônica com o desenvolvimento ou estabelecimento de algumas doen- ças cardiovasculares. Dessa forma, o objetivo da presente trabalho foi descrever de forma sucinta e objetiva a relação entre doença periodontal crônica e doença periapical como fatores de risco para o desenvolvimento ou estabeleciomento da aterosclerose. Estudos epidemiológicos têm procurado demonstrar que indivíduos com doença periodontal ou periapical poderiam apresentar um aumento significativo do risco de desenvolver algumas doenças sistêmicas incluindo a aterosclerose.

Fundamento: A doença coronária tem sido amplamente estudada em pesquisas cardiovasculares. No entanto, pacientes com doença arterial periférica (DAP) têm piores resultados em comparação àqueles com doença arterial coronariana. Portanto, os estudos farmacológicos com artéria femoral são altamente relevantes para a melhor compreensão das respostas clínicas e fisiopatológicas da DAP. Objetivo: Avaliar as propriedades farmacológicas dos agentes contráteis e relaxantes na artéria femoral de ratos. Métodos: As curvas de resposta de concentração à fenilefrina contrátil (FC) e à serotonina (5-HT) e os agentes relaxantes isoproterenol (ISO) e forskolina foram obtidos na artéria femoral de ratos isolada. Para as respostas ao relaxamento, os tecidos foram contraídos com FC ou 5-HT. Resultados: A potência de classificação na artéria femoral foi de 5-HT > FC para as respostas contráteis. Em tecidos contraídos com 5-HT, as respostas de relaxamento ao isoproterenol foram praticamente abolidas em comparação aos tecidos contraídos com FC. A forskolina, um estimulante da adenilil ciclase, restaurou parcialmente a resposta de relaxamento ao ISO em tecidos contraídos com 5-HT. Conclusão: Ocorre uma interação entre as vias de sinalização dos receptores β-adrenérgicos e serotoninérgicos na artéria femoral. Além disso, esta pesquisa fornece um novo modelo para estudar as vias de sinalização serotoninérgicas em condições normais e patológicas que podem ajudar a compreender os resultados clínicos na DAP.

Having in sight the current inertia found on the school physical environments as well as on the High School learning methods used, digital games appear as a different tool to build the individuals'/students' knowledge and becomes a driving factor for this research. The usage of this media resource tries to rescue a stimulant type of learning focused on the students' experiences while getting them closer to Science, Technology and Society (STS). The usefulness of this method falls short, however, without the capacitated guidance of a teacher. A literature review has been made about the possible schooling that electronic/digital games provide; it also brings the opinions of students and teachers to help comprehend how the insertion of this new tool in the classroom happens, as well as its efficiency and acceptance. Having in sight the relationship between individuals and the preoccupations about the future of mankind, components of humanity's destiny have been evidenced in the teaching of Chemistry. It is possible to conclude that these games can, indeed, help in the teaching process, although it is necessary that they develop a main didactic role, linked to the teaching of concepts and content, or else become only educational for that matter. Using the tools given by digital games it is possible, for example, through playfulness, to teach the theory of many abstract models, mathematical equations and chemical formulas, making it possible then to grab the students' attention, to thrill them and to develop their participation based on the experience they so often already have with cell phones and personal computers
