O objetivo do presente estudo foi desenvolver um protocolo de congelação para a preservação de folículos pré-antrais de Sapajus apella (macaco-prego). Para este fim, fragmentos ovarianos foram expostos à diferentes soluções crioprotetoras, adicionadas ou não por antioxidantes (selênio e trolox), congelados e cultivados in vitro por 24/horas. Análises morfológicas, ultraestruturais, de viabilidade e estresse oxidativo foram desenvolvidas. A coleta do material foi realizada no Centro Nacional de primatas (CENP) e nove macacos-prego maduras e saudáveis foram usadas. Biopsias ovarianas de 1 mm³ foram coletadas por laparoscopia exploratória. Os folículos coletados foram classificados de acordo com sua fase de desenvolvimento em primordial, primário ou secundário. A viabilidade folicular foi observada através da utilização de marcadores fluorescentes (Iodeto de propídeo e Hoechst) qRT-PCR foi usado para avaliar a expressão de hormônios e fatores de crescimento. O TEAC foi usado para mensurar o estresse oxidativo no tecido. Os resultados mostraram que a solução congelação contendo trolox não afetou a morfologia folicular e expressão gênica. A criopreservação resultou em elevadas taxas de viabilidade folicular quando o trolox estava presente na solução, porém a expressão de genes codificando BMP4 e KL foi negativamente afetada. Nossos achados mostraram um efeito favorável da adição do trolox à solução de congelação. Entretanto, a viabilidade folicular e expressão gênica foram afetados após cultivo in vitro.

Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death selectively removes abnormal cells, and thus contributes to maintaining the balance of the dynamics of cell reproduction. Therefore the verification of the occurrence of apoptotic cell death after a pathological stimulus is crucial for the analysis of the maintenance of normal cell cycle of a given tissue or organ. In this experiment were used cells lines human mammary tumor MDAMB231, T47, MCF7, which were irradiated with X-rays at a dose of 5 Gy in a time interval of 15 seconds, and filtration of 1mm aluminum. Samples containing the cells were grown in a specific culture medium, containing fetal bovine serum and growth factor, and two samples were prepared with each of the cell lines, one to be irradiated, and another that has not been irradiated, which denoted by negative control of the irradiation. The primary goal of the experiment was to verify and compare the rates of apoptosis in each cell lines, in which were irradiated and that were not irradiated, using flow cytometry as a method for detecting apoptotic cell death in together with specific markers annexin V and propidium iodide. Data from the readings made by flow cytometry were analyzed and interpreted using the software WinMDI statistical graph. By comparing the indices relating to the readings of positive and negative for specific markers of apoptosis, based on differences in the statistical data presented lectures regarding the cellular irradiated and not irradiated, collude cells in question once...

Objective: To evaluate if the total bacterial count of vaginal samples with bacterial vaginosis assessed by flow cytometry influences the response to treatment with metronidazol. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 273 low-risk reproductive aged women were enrolled. Vaginal samples were taken to evaluate the pattern of vaginal flora according to Nugent’s criteria, as well as the presence of trichomoniasis and candidosis. Cases identified of bacterial vaginosis were treated with metronidazole and controlled after 45 days. Cervical infection by Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae were also assessed. Flow cytometry for total bacterial counting was performed in propidium iodide stained cervicovaginal samples, using fluorescent beads at a known concentration. Non-parametric Mann-Whitney test was used to compare total bacterial count between groups of interest, at p<0.05. Results: From the total of 273 women enrolled, 50 were excluded as they presented at least one of the infections investigated. Bacterial vaginosis was detected in 79 women (35.4%), of which 33 (41.8%) returned for re-evaluation after treatment, being 21 cases successfully treated and 12 with persistent abnormal vaginal flora. Flow cytometric data showed that total bacterial counting does not differ between normal flora and bacterial vaginosis samples (p=0.14). Also, no difference was found between the cases of treated and persistent bacterial vaginosis (p=0.48). Conclusion: Total bacterial counting does not influence the response to metronidazole treatment of bacterial vaginosis
