Efeito de agrotóxicos sobre Calepitrimerus vitis (Nalepa, 1905) (Acari: Eriophyidae) na região da campanha do Rio Grande do Sul

O Rio Grande do Sul apresenta a maior área de cultivo de videiras no Brasil; neste Estado, a Região da Campanha possui características edafoclimáticas adequadas à produção de cultivares viníferas de origem europeia e apresentou, na primeira década deste milênio, significativa expansão de área. A partir de 2005, o ácaro-da-ferrugem-da-videira, Calepitrimerus vitis, passou a ser encontrado com frequência nos vinhedos da Campanha. Nos países onde esta espécie está estabelecida, reduções significativas na produção de uva são observadas, e a necessidade de controle é constante, não havendo, até o momento, produtos autorizados no Brasil para o controle de C. vitis. O presente trabalho objetivou avaliar diversos agrotóxicos quanto à eficiência de controle de C. vitis em um vinhedo comercial, na região da Campanha do Rio Grande do Sul. O experimento foi conduzido durante os anos de 2008 e 2009, comparando o nível de infestação nas plantas através do emprego de armadilhas adesivas. No ano de 2008, a eficiência de controle durante o outono não diferiu da testemunha. O emprego de enxofre em uma única pulverização no outono, ou em duas pulverizações, sendo uma no outono e outra na primavera, controlou eficientemente C. vitis na primavera. Os acaricidas abamectina e espirodiclofeno foram eficientes no controle de C. vitis na primavera, tanto com uma única pulverização, como com duas pulverizações, sendo uma no outono e outra na primavera. No outono de 2009, os tratamentos com espirodiclofeno e cihexatina foram eficientes no controle de C. vitis. O ácaro-da-ferrugem-da-videira é controlado eficientemente com pulverizações de cihexatina, enxofre ou espirodiclofeno no outono ou durante a primavera com abamectina, enxofre ou espirodiclofeno.

Characterization of hepatic fatty acids in mice with reduced liver fat by ultra-short echo time (1)H-MRS at 14.1 T in vivo.

Alterations in the hepatic lipid content (HLC) and fatty acid composition are associated with disruptions in whole body metabolism, both in humans and in rodent models, and can be non-invasively assessed by (1)H-MRS in vivo. We used (1)H-MRS to characterize the hepatic fatty-acyl chains of healthy mice and to follow changes caused by streptozotocin (STZ) injection. Using STEAM at 14.1 T with an ultra-short TE of 2.8 ms, confounding effects from T2 relaxation and J-coupling were avoided, allowing for accurate estimations of the contribution of unsaturated (UFA), saturated (SFA), mono-unsaturated (MUFA) and poly-unsaturated (PUFA) fatty-acyl chains, number of double bonds, PU bonds and mean chain length. Compared with in vivo (1) H-MRS, high resolution NMR performed in vitro in hepatic lipid extracts reported longer fatty-acyl chains (18 versus 15 carbons) with a lower contribution from UFA (61 ± 1% versus 80 ± 5%) but a higher number of PU bonds per UFA (1.39 ± 0.03 versus 0.58 ± 0.08), driven by the presence of membrane species in the extracts. STZ injection caused a decrease of HLC (from 1.7 ± 0.3% to 0.7 ± 0.1%), an increase in the contribution of SFA (from 21 ± 2% to 45 ± 6%) and a reduction of the mean length (from 15 to 13 carbons) of cytosolic fatty-acyl chains. In addition, SFAs were also likely to have increased in membrane lipids of STZ-induced diabetic mice, along with a decrease of the mean chain length. These studies show the applicability of (1)H-MRS in vivo to monitor changes in the composition of the hepatic fatty-acyl chains in mice even when they exhibit reduced HLC, pointing to the value of this methodology to evaluate lipid-lowering interventions in the scope of metabolic disorders.

Responders to Wide-Pulse, High-Frequency Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Show Reduced Metabolic Demand: A 31P-MRS Study in Humans.

Conventional (CONV) neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) (i.e., short pulse duration, low frequencies) induces a higher energetic response as compared to voluntary contractions (VOL). In contrast, wide-pulse, high-frequency (WPHF) NMES might elicit-at least in some subjects (i.e., responders)-a different motor unit recruitment compared to CONV that resembles the physiological muscle activation pattern of VOL. We therefore hypothesized that for these responder subjects, the metabolic demand of WPHF would be lower than CONV and comparable to VOL. 18 healthy subjects performed isometric plantar flexions at 10% of their maximal voluntary contraction force for CONV (25 Hz, 0.05 ms), WPHF (100 Hz, 1 ms) and VOL protocols. For each protocol, force time integral (FTI) was quantified and subjects were classified as responders and non-responders to WPHF based on k-means clustering analysis. Furthermore, a fatigue index based on FTI loss at the end of each protocol compared with the beginning of the protocol was calculated. Phosphocreatine depletion (ΔPCr) was assessed using 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Responders developed four times higher FTI's during WPHF (99 ± 37 ×103 N.s) than non-responders (26 ± 12 ×103 N.s). For both responders and non-responders, CONV was metabolically more demanding than VOL when ΔPCr was expressed relative to the FTI. Only for the responder group, the ∆PCr/FTI ratio of WPHF (0.74 ± 0.19 M/N.s) was significantly lower compared to CONV (1.48 ± 0.46 M/N.s) but similar to VOL (0.65 ± 0.21 M/N.s). Moreover, the fatigue index was not different between WPHF (-16%) and CONV (-25%) for the responders. WPHF could therefore be considered as the less demanding NMES modality-at least in this subgroup of subjects-by possibly exhibiting a muscle activation pattern similar to VOL contractions.
