In the present study, seventy-two adult rats (Rattus norvegicus albinus) aged three months were used. The animals were divided into two groups (control and alcoholic). The control group received a solid diet (Purina rat chow) and tap water ad libitum. The alcoholic group received the same solid diet and sugar-cane liquid (trade 51, 41° Gay Lussac - GL) diluted 30° GL. At the end or 90, 180 and 270 days of treatment, ten rats of each group were anaesthetized with ethyl ether and sacrificed. The ovaries were collected, fixed, included and submitted to analysis by both light and electron microscopy. The alcoholic group showed increase in the number of corpora lutea at both 180 and 270 days of treatment, atresic follicles at 270 days of treatment, decreased diameter of corpora lutea at 180 and 270 days of treatment, the granulosa layer of the antral follicles at 180 days of treatment, and gradual regression of the theca antral follicles. Furthermore, an increase in diameter and posterior regression of the antral follicle were observed, as well as vacuolation, increased lipid droplets in the granulosa cell at 90 days and in the theca at 180 and 270 days of treatment and gradually in the interstitial cell. The rats showed ovarian alterations after ingestion of alcohol. There was a correlation between exposure time to the drug and the injury observed.

Ten estrous cycles of seven Machador Brasileiro jennies located at Estaçãeo Experimental de Zootecnia - Colina - Sãeo Paulo were monitored and the plasmatic progesterone concentration determined by the radioimmunoassay method in solid phase, employing commercial kits (DPC). For progesterone concentration determination and CL diameter there were excluded the animals which presented diestrus ovulations. The corpora lutea formed from single ovulations or double ovulations presented a mean diameter of 26.2 ± 4.4 and 22.1 ± 2.7 mm, respectively, which represented 66.1% and 64.1% of the preovulatory follicle diameter. The presence of two CLs from double ovulations was not reflected by a significant increase on progesterone concentrations.

Elevated blood testosterone concentrations, often accompanied by male-typical behaviors, is a common signalment of mares with granulosa-theca cell tumors (GCTCs), but no definitive information exists regarding the cellular differentiation of tumors associated with androgen secretion. This study was conducted to localize and thereby define the cellular expression of 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase cytochrome P450 (P450c17), the enzyme most directly responsible for androgen synthesis, in 30 GTCTs and control tissues (gonads and adrenal glands) using immuno-histochemistry (IHC). Immuno-reactivity for P450c17 was evident in approximately half of 30 specimens examined, was most consistent in the interstitial cells surrounding existing or developing cysts, and was less intense in cells within cysts in the smaller proportion of specimens where this was observed. In control tissues, the expression of P450c17 was localized primarily in theca interna of normal ovarian follicles, in theca-lutein cells of some corpora lutea, but not in granulosa-lutein cells. Testicular interstitial cells and islands of adreno-cortical cells located in the adrenal medulla of the adrenal cortex further established the specificity of the antisera used. These data provided the first substantive evidence that polyhedral cells identified previously in GTCTs by histopathology have the potential to synthesize and secrete androgens, similar to theca interna and theca lutein cells in normal equine ovaries. © 2010 Elsevier Inc.

As tendências do setor alimentício são ditadas pelo mercado consumidor e seu comportamento social. Atualmente, a busca por produtos saudáveis tem crescido e frutos exóticos estão sendo cada vez mais utilizados visando o fator inovação. O cajá e umbu são frutos bastante comercializados no Norte e Nordeste do Brasil e o desenvolvimento de produtos à base destes frutos mostra ser uma opção interessante, pelo sabor e pelas características de funcionalidade. Elaborou-se um néctar misto que foi submetido à pasteurização térmica (90 °C/60 s). O produto foi caracterizado físico-quimicamente e ao longo de três meses avaliou-se a estabilidade segundo análises microbiológicas, sensoriais e de pH, acidez total titulável, açúcares totais e redutores, taninos, carotenóides totais e cor. Os resultados indicaram uma boa aceitação em relação à impressão global (84,76%) e intenção de compra (90,62%). O produto apresentou um valor energético de 68,16 kcal.100 g –1, sendo rico em taninos e boa fonte de vitamina C. O tratamento térmico empregado se mostrou eficiente até 60 dias de estocagem, após esse período, o néctar apresentou modificações nos açúcares, escurecimento e crescimento de fungos. Sensorialmente, isso refletiu na queda da aceitação e intenção de compra, com valores de 65,66 e 68,4%, respectivamente.
