Fundamentos. La eficacia de paclitaxel junto con rhG-CSF en la movilización de progenitores hematopoyéticos, se ha probada en pacientes hematológicos. Farmacogenéticamente el paclitaxel presenta una alta variabilidad inter-individual. Los genes CYP2C8 y ABCB1 involucrados en su metabolismo y transporte podrían afectar dicha variabilidad inter-individual. Objetivo. Evaluar en una cohorte retrospectiva de pacientes sometidos a TASPE, el efecto de algunos polimorfismos de nucleótido simple (del gen CYP2C8 y del gen ABCB1) sobre la eficacia en la movilización y toxicidad hematológica inducida por del paclitaxel. Materiales y Métodos. Un grupo de 107 pacientes recibieron paclitaxel y rhG-CSF como esquema movilizador. Los polimorfismos genotipados fueron para los genes ABCB1 rs1045642 A>G, ABCB1 rs2032582 C>A, ABCB1 rs2032582 C>T, CYP2C8 rs10509681 C>T, y CYP2C8 rs11572080 A>G. Resultados. El uso de paclitaxel logró éxito movilizador en más del 80% de los pacientes con linfomas o mieloma (p=0,0021), pero no lo fue en la leucemia aguda. En pacientes con mieloma la variable G>rs1045642 del gen ABCB1 se asoció con mala movilización (p= 0,018) y mayor toxicidad hematológica (p= 0,034). El alelo C>rs10509681 del gen CYP2C8 se relacionó con mayor toxicidad en pacientes con linfoma (p= 0,045) y mieloma múltiple (p=0,042), y portadores del alelo TT en homocigosis presentaron una mayor toxicidad hematológica comparada con los portadores CC o CT (p= 0,027). Conclusión. Este estudio sugiere que los SNPs de las variables alélicas analizadas en los genes CYP2C8 y ABCB1 en algunos grupos de pacientes inciden en la capacidad movilizadora y afectan el grado de toxicidad hematológica.

Objective: In previous studies cholesterol-rich nanoemulsions (LDE) resembling low-density lipoprotein were shown to concentrate in atherosclerotic lesions of rabbits. Lesions were pronouncedly reduced by treatment with paclitaxel associated with LDE. This study aimed to test the hypothesis of whether LDE-paclitaxel is able to concentrate in grafted hearts of rabbits and to ameliorate coronary allograft vasculopathy after the transplantation procedure. Methods: Twenty-one New Zealand rabbits fed 0.5% cholesterol were submitted to heterotopic heart transplantation at the cervical position. All rabbits undergoing transplantation were treated with cyclosporin A (10 mg . kg(-1) . d(-1) by mouth). Eleven rabbits were treated with LDE-paclitaxel (4 mg/kg body weight paclitaxel per week administered intravenously for 6 weeks), and 10 control rabbits were treated with 3 mL/wk intravenous saline. Four control animals were injected with LDE labeled with [(14)C]-cholesteryl oleate ether to determine tissue uptake. Results: Radioactive LDE uptake by grafts was 4-fold that of native hearts. In both groups the coronary arteries of native hearts showed no stenosis, but treatment with LDE-paclitaxel reduced the degree of stenosis in grafted hearts by 50%. The arterial luminal area in grafts of the treated group was 3-fold larger than in control animals. LDE-paclitaxel treatment resulted in a 7-fold reduction of macrophage infiltration. In grafted hearts LDE-paclitaxel treatment reduced the width of the intimal layer and inhibited the destruction of the medial layer. No toxicity was observed in rabbits receiving LDE-paclitaxel treatment. Conclusions: LDE-paclitaxel improved posttransplantation injury to the grafted heart. The novel therapeutic approach for heart transplantation management validated here is thus a promising strategy to be explored in future clinical studies. (J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2011;141:1522-8)

Análogos do hormônio juvenil (AHJ) têm sido testados como reguladores de crescimento de Bombyx mori L., com vistas ao incremento da produção de casulos. Esses produtos, quando aplicados em doses adequadas, prolongam o período larval. Os efeitos da aplicação de AHJ podem variar com o produto, a linhagem e o momento de aplicação. Este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar o efeito da aplicação tópica, em diferentes momentos, de três análogos do hormônio juvenil sobre o crescimento dos insetos e a produção de seda da linhagem brasileira C115xN108 do bicho-da-seda. Os produtos piriproxifem, metoprene e fenoxicarbe foram aplicados em larvas do bicho-da-seda a 24h, 48h, 72h e 96h após o início do quinto ínstar (HQI) e seus efeitos sobre características biológicas larvais e adultas e a produção de seda foram avaliados. Independentemente do momento de aplicação, os três produtos afetaram todos os parâmetros avaliados. A reserva de nutrientes acumulada durante o período larval prolongado dos insetos tratados foi destinada ao crescimento das glândulas sericígenas e, também, convertida em peso corporal, com conseqüentes incrementos na produção de seda. Aplicações entre 48 e 72 HQI provocaram os maiores incrementos na biomassa e na produção de casulos de B. mori. Variações no momento de aplicação de 24h e 96h não influenciaram a emergência ou a oviposição de adultos de B. mori, nem a viabilidade dos ovos.

In the current work are presented the results about the study of digital mapping of analogs referents the fluvial oil reservoirs in the Açu Formation. With the regional recognizing in the south corner of Potiguar Basin was selected a area of 150 Km square in the west of Assu city. In this area was chosen the outcrops for the digital mapping and from the data fields and remote sensors were done the depositional architectural for the fluvial deposits, which it was named coarse meandering fluvial systems. In the deposits were individualized 3 (three) fluvial cycles, which they was separated by bounding surface of fifth order. Such cycles are preferentially sandy, with fining-upward sequence finished in flood plain deposits. Inner of the sandy levels of the filling channels were characterized least cycles, normaly incomplete, constituted by braided sandy bodies and bounding surfaces of fourth order. In the mapped area was chosen a outcrop with great exposition, where it was possible to see tipical deposits of filling channel and was in this outcrop that was done the digital mapping. In this outcrop was used diverse technics and tools, which they integrated sedimentological, altimetric (GPS, Total Station), LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), digital photomosaic of high resolution and of the inner geometries (Ground Penetration Radar) data sets. For the integrating, interpretation and visualization of data was used software GoCAD®. The final product of the outcrop digital mapping was the photorealistic model of part of the cliff (or slope) because the observed reflectors in the radargrams were absents. A part of bar oblique accretion was modeled according to GPR gride of 200x200 meters in the alluvial Assu river probable recent analog. With the data of inner geometries was developed the three-dimentional sedimentary architectural, where it was possible characterize sand sheet deposits and many hierarchy of braided channels. At last, simulations of sedimentary geometries and architectures of the Potiguar Basin Fluvial Reservoirs were done with PetBool software, in order to understand the capacity of this program in simulations with a lot of numbers of conditioning wells. In total, 45 simulations was acquired, where the time and the channel numbers increase in relation of the conditioning wells quantity. The deformation of the meanders was detected from the change of simulated dominion dimensions. The presence of this problem was because the relationship between the simulated dominion and the width of the meander

The agonists of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) were introduced in ovarian stimulation for in vitro fertilization to avoid a premature surge of luteinizing hormone. Although they are accompanied by some disadvantages, GnRH agonists have become well accepted in clinical practice, and their use is associated with increased rates of pregnancy. The development of GnRH antagonists capable of blocking the pituitary immediately offered a therapeutic option. Comparative studies between the two analogs have suggested that the use of antagonists is associated with a shorter duration of ovulatory stimulus and a decreased incidence of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, while the type of GnRH analogues used show no significant effects on the rates of pregnancy and live birth. However, GnRH agonists have other applications in assisted reproductive technology cycles than the pituitary downregulation.

A tirosinase é uma enzima chave para a biossíntese de melanina. É uma enzima “cobre-dependente” que pode existir em três estados intermediários: desoxi (Cu1+ -Cu1+), oxi (Cu 2+ - O2 -Cu2+) e met (Cu2+) - Cu2+). Apresenta atividade bifuncional, pois oxida fenóis ou catecóis em seus o-difenóis correspondentes, sendo que o processo de oxidação de fenóis pode ser descrito por cinética de Michaelis-Menten. Distúrbios na tirosinase estão associados com hiperpigmentação e escurecimento enzimático de frutas e fungos. Assim a busca por substâncias de origem natural ou sintética capazes de regular o comportamento desta enzima é fator chave para o tratamento de tais desordens. Nesta perspectiva, no presente trabalho buscou-se analisar bioquimicamente a atividade anti-tirosinase de análogos do ácido kójico derivados de 4H- pironas (S-01, S-02, S-03 e S-04) e derivados de diidropirano [3, 2-b] cromenodionas (S-05, S-06, S-07 e S-08), quimicamente planejadas por modelagem molecular no LPDF, do ICEN da UFPA. A cinética das substâncias S-02, S-04, S-06, S-07 e S-08 apresentaram inibição do tipo competitiva, semelhante ao padrão de inibição do ácido kójico, com valores de Ki de 145,0 ± 20,0 μM; 64,0 ± 10,0 μM; 4,0 ± 0,0 μM; 6,0 ± 0,0 μM; 9,0 ± 0,0 μM, respectivamente, e de 5,0 ± 0,0 μM para o ácido kójico, enquanto a substância S-01 apresentou uma inibição do tipo mista (Ki = 999,0 ± 150,0 μM). Já as substâncias S-03 e S-05 não apresentaram atividade inibitória. As substâncias testadas demonstraram alto grau de segurança tanto na integridade de membrana de eritrócitos em teste de hemólise, quanto na viabilidade em teste com MTT em culturas de fibroblasto MRC5, em cultura de células nervosas de retina de embrião de galinha e em melanoma B16F10. Assim, demonstrou-se que as substâncias S-02, S-04, S-06, S-07 e S-08 apresentam atividade como potentes inibidores de tirosinase, podendo ser candidatos no tratamento de desordens de pigmentação.
