One of the main challenges of tissue engineering in dentistry is to replace bone and dental tissues with strategies or techniques that simulate physiological tissue repair conditions. This systematic review of in vitro studies aimed to evaluate the influence of the addition of nanohydroxyapatite (NHap) to scaffolds on cell proliferation and osteogenic and odontogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells. In vitro studies on human stem cells that proliferated and differentiated into odontogenic and osteogenic cells in scaffolds containing NHap were included in this study. Searches in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, OpenGrey, ProQuest, and Cochrane Library electronic databases were performed. The total of 333 articles was found across all databases. After reading and analyzing titles and abstracts, 8 articles were selected for full reading and extraction of qualitative data. Results showed that despite the large variability in scaffold composition, NHap-containing scaffolds promoted high rates of cell proliferation, increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity during short culture periods, and induced differentiation, as evidenced by the high expression of genes involved in osteogenesis and odontogenesis. However, further studies with greater standardization regarding NHap concentration, type of scaffolds, and evaluation period are needed to observe possible interference of these criteria in the action of NHap on the proliferation and differentiation of human stem cells. conditions (NHap study PubMedMEDLINE PubMed MEDLINE PubMed/MEDLINE Scopus Science OpenGrey ProQuest performed 33 abstracts data composition NHapcontaining ALP (ALP periods odontogenesis However concentration 3

ABSTRACT The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others. publications problem uptodate up date classifications context exception (CTFB http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/, httpfaunajbrjgovbr http //fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ , jbrj gov br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/) 2015 Brazil 80 specialists 1 2024 133691 133 691 133,69 125138 125 138 125,13 82.3%, 823 82 3 (82.3% 102000 102 000 102,00 7.69%, 769 7 69 (7.69% 11000 11 11,00 . 3,567 3567 567 (3,56 2,292 2292 2 292 (2,29 1,833 1833 833 (1,83 1,447 1447 447 (1,44 1000 1,00 831 (83 628 (62 606 (60 520 (52 50 users science health biology law anthropology education others http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ faunajbrjgovbr //fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ 201 8 202 13369 13 133,6 12513 12 125,1 82.3% (82.3 10200 10 00 102,0 7.69% 76 6 (7.69 1100 11,0 3,56 356 56 (3,5 2,29 229 29 (2,2 1,83 183 83 (1,8 1,44 144 44 (1,4 100 1,0 (8 62 (6 60 52 (5 5 http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br 20 1336 133, 1251 125, 82.3 (82. 1020 0 102, 7.69 (7.6 110 11, 3,5 35 (3, 2,2 22 (2, 1,8 18 (1, 1,4 14 4 ( 82.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), characterized by hepatosteatosis and steatohepatitis, is intrinsically related to obesity. Our previous study reported on the anti-obese activity of α,β-amyrin (AMY), a pentacyclic triterpene isolated from Protium heptaphyllum. This study investigated its ability to prevent fatty liver and the underlying mechanism using the mouse model of NAFLD. NAFLD was induced in male Swiss mice fed a high fat diet (HFD) for 15 weeks. The controls were fed a normal chow diet (ND). The mice were simultaneously treated with AMY at 10 and 20 mg/kg or fenofibrate at 50 mg/kg. Lipid levels along with metabolic and inflammatory parameters were assessed in liver and serum. The liver sections were histologically examined using H&E staining. RT-qPCR and western blotting assays were performed to analyze signaling mechanisms. Mice fed HFD developed severe hepatic steatosis with elevated triglycerides and lipid droplets compared with ND controls. This was associated with a decrease in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity, an increase of mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling, and enhanced sterol regulatory element binding protein 1 (SREBP1) expression, which have roles in lipogenesis, inhibition of lipolysis, and inflammatory response. AMY treatment reversed these signaling activities and decreased the severity of hepatic steatosis and inflammatory response, evidenced by serum and liver parameters as well as histological findings. AMY-induced reduction in hepatic steatosis seemed to involve AMPK-mTORC1-SREBP1 signaling pathways, which supported its beneficial role in the prevention and treatment of NAFLD.

The objective of this study was to describe the timing of the first dental visit and investigate the association of socioeconomic and behavioral factors with dental visit delay among 10/11-year-old children from two live-birth population cohorts with extremely contrasting socioeconomic profiles. Follow-up data (2004-2005) from cohorts of Ribeirão Preto (RP) (n=790) and São Luís (SL) (n=673) were evaluated. Delay in dental visit was defined as not visiting a dentist before the age of 7. Covariates included family socioeconomic characteristics, mother-related health behavior, and child-related characteristics. Prevalence ratios with robust standard errors were estimated. In both cohorts, less than 5% of children had visited a dentist before the age of two and about 35% of them had not visited a dentist before the age of seven. Lower mother’s schooling and lack of private health insurance were associated with the delay in first dental visit for both cohorts. A small number of mother's prenatal care visits and being from a single-father family or a family without parents were only associated in the RP cohort, while having ≥4 siblings and lifetime dental pain were associated in the SL cohort. The association with dental pain probably reveals a preventive care-seeking behavior. Therefore, the percentage of delayed first dental visit of children was very high even among those with the most educated mothers. Further studies are necessary to analyze recent changes and underlying factors related to access to first dental visit after the implementation of the National Oral Health Policy in 2006.

RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar um programa de controle da artrite encefalite caprina (AEC), por meio de testes diagnósticos sensíveis, separação de mãe e cria após o parto e medidas de manejo, com o intuito de formar rebanho livre do vírus. Utilizou-se um total de 47 cabritos da raça Saanen, mantidos isoladamente até o resultado dos primeiros testes de reação em cadeia de polimerase nested (PCR nested) e Western Blotting (WB), com base na coleta de sangue no momento do nascimento (M0). No PCR nested, quatro animais foram positivos, no M0, e foram eutanasiados. Posteriormente, os demais 43 cabritos foram submetidos à coleta de sangue aos 60 (M60) e 270 (M270) dias de vida para realização de novos testes de WB e PCR nested, que não detectaram animais positivos. Pode-se afirmar que a metodologia adotada neste estudo foi efetiva no controle da doença, nas fases de aleitamento e pós-aleitamento, e que a combinação do sistema de manejo, a fim de propiciar diminuição de risco de transmissão horizontal, com técnicas de diagnóstico mais apuradas, como o WB e a PCR nested, é relevante para elaboração de plano estratégico de controle da enfermidade.
ABSTRACT We aimed to evaluate a program to control Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis (CAE), using diagnostic tests, separation of the mother and postpartum and other management measures, in order to form a free flock of the virus. We used a total of 47 Saanengoats in isolation until the results of the first nested Polymerase Chain Reaction (nested PCR) and Western Blotting (WB) tests, based on blood collection at the time of birth (M0). In the nested PCR, 4 animals were positive, at M0, and were eliminated. Later, the other 43goats were submitted to blood collection at 60 (M60) and 270 (M270) days of life to perform new tests of WB and nested PCR, which did not detect positive animals. We can affirm that the methodology adopted in this study was effective in the control of the disease, in the phase of breastfeeding and post-breastfeeding, and that the combination of the management system, which allows a reduction of risk of horizontal transmission, with more accurate diagnostic techniques, such as WB and nested PCR, is relevant for the elaboration of a strategic plan for the disease control.

Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance, progressive chronic kidney disease, and a bland urinary sediment. ADTKD is most commonly caused by mutations in the UMOD gene encoding uromodulin (ADTKD-UMOD). We herein report the first confirmed case of a multi-generational Brazilian family with ADTKD-UMOD, caused by a novel heterozygous mutation (c.163G>A, GGC→AGC, p.Gly55Ser) in the UMOD gene. Of 41 family members, 22 underwent genetic analysis, with 11 individuals found to have this mutation. Three affected individuals underwent hemodialysis, one peritoneal dialysis, and one patient received a kidney transplant from a family member later found to be genetically affected. Several younger individuals affected with the mutation were also identified. Clinical characteristics included a bland urinary sediment in all tested individuals and a kidney biopsy in one individual showing tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Unlike most other reported families with ADTKD-UMOD, neither gout nor hyperuricemia was found in affected individuals. In summary, we report a novel UMOD mutation in a Brazilian family with 11 affected members, and we discuss the importance of performing genetic testing in families with inherited kidney disease of unknown cause.

ABSTRACT Dry tropical forests are a key component in the global carbon cycle and their biomass estimates depend almost exclusively of fitted equations for multi-species or individual species data. Therefore, a systematic evaluation of statistical models through validation of estimates of aboveground biomass stocks is justifiable. In this study was analyzed the capacity of generic and specific equations obtained from different locations in Mexico and Brazil, to estimate aboveground biomass at multi-species levels and for four different species. Generic equations developed in Mexico and Brazil performed better in estimating tree biomass for multi-species data. For Poincianella bracteosa and Mimosa ophthalmocentra, only the Sampaio and Silva (2005) generic equation was the most recommended. These equations indicate lower tendency and lower bias, and biomass estimates for these equations are similar. For the species Mimosa tenuiflora, Aspidosperma pyrifolium and for the genus Croton the specific regional equations are more recommended, although the generic equation of Sampaio and Silva (2005) is not discarded for biomass estimates. Models considering gender, families, successional groups, climatic variables and wood specific gravity should be adjusted, tested and the resulting equations should be validated at both local and regional levels as well as on the scales of tropics with dry forest dominance.

ABSTRACT Currently, there is a lack of studies on the correct utilization of continuous distributions for dry tropical forests. Therefore, this work aims to investigate the diameter structure of a brazilian tropical dry forest and to select suitable continuous distributions by means of statistic tools for the stand and the main species. Two subsets were randomly selected from 40 plots. Diameter at base height was obtained. The following functions were tested: log-normal; gamma; Weibull 2P and Burr. The best fits were selected by Akaike's information validation criterion. Overall, the diameter distribution of the dry tropical forest was better described by negative exponential curves and positive skewness. The forest studied showed diameter distributions with decreasing probability for larger trees. This behavior was observed for both the main species and the stand. The generalization of the function fitted for the main species show that the development of individual models is needed. The Burr function showed good flexibility to describe the diameter structure of the stand and the behavior of Mimosa ophthalmocentra and Bauhinia cheilantha species. For Poincianella bracteosa, Aspidosperma pyrifolium and Myracrodum urundeuva better fitting was obtained with the log-normal function.

O levantamento fitossociológico é o primeiro passo para implantação do manejo integrado das plantas daninhas em culturas. Neste trabalho, objetivou-se avaliar a ocorrência de plantas daninhas em plantios de mandioca na savana de Roraima. As coletas das plantas foram realizadas aleatoriamente 80 vezes em 10 lavouras, em quatro épocas (janeiro, fevereiro, março e abril de 2012). As plantas coletadas foram cortadas ao nível do solo e, depois disso, separadas por espécie, identificadas, quantificadas e pesadas em balança de precisão de 0,01 g. Em seguida foi feita a análise descritiva dos parâmetros fitossociológicos (frequência, densidade, abundância, número total de indivíduos por espécie, frequência relativa, densidade relativa, abundância relativa e índice de valor de importância) para as espécies coletadas. Além destes parâmetros, foram descritas as classes botânicas, famílias, espécies, tipo de propagação, ciclo de vida, hábito de crescimento, número total de espécies e massa seca por hectare. A composição da comunidade da área levantada foi considerada heterogênea, apresentando 27 espécies. As espécies que apresentaram a maior densidade por hectare foram: Digitaria sanguinalis (210.500), Brachiaria brizantha (111.000), Brachiaria decumbens (86.500) e Brachiaria humidicola (69.000). Digitaria sanguinalis obteve maiores densidade relativa (28,08), abundância relativa (26,16) e índice de valor de importância (65,34). A maioria das plantas daninhas apresentou hábito de crescimento herbáceo.
A phyto-sociological survey is the first step to implement integrated weed management in crops. In this study, weed occurrence was evaluated in cassava plantations in the savannah of Roraima in northern Brazil. Harvest was performed randomly 80 times in 10 crops over four seasons (January, February, March, and April 2012). The harvested plants were cut at ground level, sorted out per species, identified, quantified, and weighed on a 0.01 g precision scale. A descriptive analysis was conducted of the phyto-sociological parameters (frequency, density, abundance, total number of individuals per species, relative frequency, relative density, relative abundance and importance value index) for the collected species. A description was also made of the botanical classes, families, species, type of propagation, life cycle, growth habit, total number of species and dry weight ha-1. The community in the surveyed area was considered to have a heterogeneous composition, comprising 27 species. The species presenting the highest density per hectare were Digitaria sanguinalis (210,500), Brachiaria brizantha (111,000), Brachiaria decumbens (86,500) and Brachiaria humidicola (69,000). Digitaria sanguinalis had the highest relative density (28.08), relative abundance (26.16) and importance value index (65,34). Most weeds had herbaceous growth habit.

O óleo essencial de folhas e de flores de Aloysia gratissima foi avaliado quanto à composição química e ação antimicrobiana contra as bactérias Bacilus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella choleraesuis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pneumoniae, e a levedura Candida albicans. A concentração mínima inibitória (MIC) dos óleos essenciais foi determinada pelo método da microdiluição e a composição química determinada por CG-EM (Cromatografia Gasosa acoplada a Espectrômetro de Massas). Folhas e inflorescências frescas foram hidrodestiladas por 120 minutos em aparelho Clevenger sendo o óleo essencial testado contra microorganismos. Para as flores foi observada maior concentração de sesquiterpenos, enquanto que as folhas apresentaram maior concentração de monoterpenos. Os principais constituintes do óleo essencial da flor foram: E-cariofileno, germacreno B, guaiol e bulnesol; e das folhas foram: trans-pinocamfona, acetato de trans-pinocarveol e guaiol. O óleo essencial da folha mostrou atividade contra P. aeruginosa e S. pneumoniae, e o óleo essencial da flor mostrou atividade contra P. aeruginosa, S. pneumoniae e Candida albicans.
Volatile oils from leaves and flowers of Aloysia gratissima were investigated for their chemical composition and antimicrobial activity against the bacteria Bacilus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella choleraesuis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pneumoniae and the Candida albicans yeast. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of the oils were determined by the micro-dilution method, while the chemical composition was determined by GC-MS (gas chromatography mass spectrometry). The fresh leaves and inflorescence were subjected to hydrodistillation for 120 min using a Clevenger-type apparatus, and the essential oil was tested against microorganisms. High concentrations of sesquiterpenes were observed for the inflorescence, and monoterpenes were observed for the leaves. The main compounds of the inflorescence essential oil were E-caryophyllene, germacrene B, guaiol and bulnesol, while in the leaves the main compounds were trans-pinocamphone, trans-pinocarveyl acetate, and guaiol. The essential oil from the leaves showed an effect against P. aeruginosa and S. pneumonia, and the essential oil of the inflorescence showed an effect against P. aeruginosa, S. pneumonia, and Candida albicans.

Este estudo teve como objetivo produzir um antígeno (Ag) a partir de cultura de células de membrana sinovial caprina (MSC) infectadas com o vírus de artrite encefalite caprina (CAEV), pela técnica de microfiltração seriada, substituindo a ultracentrifugação em colchão de sacarose (UCCS) para utilização em ELISA indireto (ELISA-i). Amostras de 188 soros caprinos, que previamente foram testados pelo Western blot (WB) com Ag UCCS, foram submetidas à análise pelo ELISA-i com o novo antígeno produzido, que mostrou concordância de 92% em relação ao antígeno UCCS. A sensibilidade e a especificidade do ELISA em relação ao WB foram de 95,6% e 88,5%, respectivamente. A nova técnica, criada a partir de microfiltrações, mostrou-se efetiva e de baixo custo para o diagnóstico sorológico de anticorpos para CAEV em comparação ao antígeno ultracentrifugado, e constitui uma alternativa viável para produção de antígeno purificado de lentivírus de pequenos ruminantes.
This study aimed to produce an antigen (Ag) from the culture of goat synovial membrane cells (MSC) infected by CAEV through serial microfiltering technique replacing ultra ultracentrifugation in sacarosis Mattress (UCCS) for the indirect diagnosis ELISA tests (i ELISA). Samples of 188 sera from goats previously examined by Western Blot (WB) with Ag UCCS were submitted to analysis by i ELISA with new antigen produced, demonstrating an accordance of 92% in relation to UCCS antigen. The specificity and sensitivity relating to WB were of 95,65% and 88, 5% respectively. The new technique created from the microfiltering is effective and with low cost for the serological antibodies diagnosis of CAEV comparing to the ultracentrifuged one, presenting, therefore, as a viable alternative for purified antigen of lentivirus in small ruminants.

Um dos fatores que afetam o desenvolvimento da planta da mandioca é o controle inadequado das plantas daninhas. Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o desenvolvimento da cultura de mandioca sob interferência de plantas daninhas. Foram realizados dois experimentos: no primeiro, os tratamentos foram compostos por períodos de convivência da cultura da mandioca com as plantas daninhas por 25, 50, 75, 100 e 125 dias após plantio e, no segundo, as plantas de mandioca permaneceram livres das plantas daninhas pelos mesmos períodos preestabelecidos. Avaliações de altura de plantas e diâmetro de caule foram realizadas aos 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250, 275, 300, 325 e 350 dias após o plantio. Nas colheitas dos experimentos, realizadas aos 330 dias após plantio, avaliou-se o número e o diâmetro das raízes por planta. A convivência por intervalo igual ou superior a 50 dias após o plantio reduziu o diâmetro de caule e a altura das plantas de mandioca, assim como o número e comprimento de raízes tuberosas. O controle das plantas daninhas nessa cultura deve ser iniciado em torno de 25 dias após o plantio.
One of the factors affecting the development of the cassava plant is the inadequate control of weeds. Thus, this work aimed to evaluate the development of the cassava plant under weed interference during different coexistence periods. Two experiments were installed in adjacent areas, in Viçosa, Minas Gerais - Brazil. In the first experiment, the treatments consisted of different periods of coexistence between the cassava culture and the weeds (25, 50, 75, 100 and 125 days after planting). In the second experiment, the cassava plants remained weed-free for the same pre-established periods. For both experiments, the 1.0 x 0.5 m spacing was adopted, being the useful portion area constituted by the two central lines, with 1.0 m being left at each extremity as front borders, adding 8.0 m2 up. Plant height and stem diameter were evaluated twelve times after planting at: 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250, 275, 300, 325 and 350 days. Plant number, root length and diameter evaluations were carried out 12 months after planting. Coexistence equal or superior to 50 day interval after planting caused drastic reduction in the stem diameter and height of the cassava plants. Weed control in cassava crop should be initiated around 25 days after planting.

RESUMO O Vírus da Artrite Encefalite Caprina (CAEV) e Vírus Maedi-visna (MVV) pertencem ao gênero Lentivírus da família Retroviridae. São considerados geneticamente distintos, mas antigenicamente relacionados. O objetivo desde trabalho foi isolar o vírus da CAE de um animal oriundo de um rebanho do Rio Grande do Norte e positivo pelo teste de Imunodifusão em Gel de Agarose (IDGA) através do co-cultivo de leucócitos infectados do sangue periférico em Membrana Sinovial Caprina (MSC). Dezesseis caprinos da raça Saanen, com suspeitas clínicas para CAE foi testado por IDGA e Western Blotting. Para o isolamento viral, os leucócitos do sangue periférico foram isolados por co-cultivo em MSC. Monócitos/Macrófagos coletados foram inoculados em monocamadas pré-formadas em garrafas A25. O resultado do IDGA foi positivo para um animal, confirmado por Western Blotting. Após 50 dias de co-cultivo, foi realizada a coloração da monocamada com cristal de violeta a 0,1% para visualização do ECP e realizada nested-PCR do sobrenadante do co-cultivo, com confirmação do efeito citopático viral. A cepa isolada, denominada BrRN-CNPC.G1 foi considerada o primeiro isolamento do CAEV no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte. Esse estudo permitirá em breve, realizar a caracterização molecular do genoma do vírus isolado, através da análise de seus diferentes genes estruturais e comparar com outras sequencias virais isoladas para identificar a provável origem da infecção desse animal e estabelecer as possíveis divergências entre cepas padrões de Lentivírus e cepas regionais circulantes.
ABSTRACT Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis virus (CAEV) and Visna/maedi virus (VISNA), belong to the genus Lentivirus family Retroviridae. The aim of the present study was to isolate the CAE virus from a positive goat when tested by agarose gel immunodifusion (AGID) by cocultivation techniques of infected peripheral blood leukocytes in goat synovial membrane (GSM). In this study, one flock of 16 goats, obtained from a flock of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, with clinical suspicions for CAEV, was screened using agar-gel immunodiffusion (agid) and Western blotting. The result was positive for one animal, confirmed by Western blotting. For virus isolation, peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) were isolated from the blood for co-culture on goat sinovial membrane (GSM) cells. Monocytes/macrophages collected were inoculated in a monolayer of 90% semiconfluent cells in the A25 culture bottles. After 50 days of co-culture, the monolayer was stained with crystal violet 0.1% for viewing viral cytopathic effects (CPE) characteristic of viruses, and nested-PCR was performed with the supernatant of co-culture for confirmation of CPE. The isolate, named BrRN-CNPC.G1, was considered the first isolation of small ruminant lentivirus from a naturally infected goat in a flock in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. This study will soon allow for the molecular characterization of the isolated virus genome, by analysis of its different structural genes and their comparison with other isolated viral sequences to identify the likely source of infection of that animal and establish the possible differences between strains of lentiviruses and circulating regional strains.

O milho (Zea mays L.) possui nos estigmas (cabelo de milho) substâncias que o tornam diurético, podendo ser importante no controle da hipertensão. No presente estudo, foi investigado o efeito do extrato aquoso (EA) do cabelo de milho sobre o fluxo renal de água (V) e eletrólitos e a pressão arterial (PA) em ratos Wistar anestesiados. Foram realizados 3 grupos: I) Controle - administração intragástrica (AI) de 1mL de água destilada; II) AI de 1 mL de EA de cabelo de milho a 20% e III) AI de 1 mL de solução contendo furosemida. Canulou-se a artéria carótida esquerda para mensuração da PA, de 10 em 10 minutos, e a bexiga urinária, para mensuração de V de 30 em 30 minutos e da carga excretada dos íons sódio (Qe (Na+)) e potássio (Qe (K+)). Protocolo experimental: quatro períodos de 30 minutos cada: basal (avaliação dos parâmetros basais) e experimentais (Ex) 1, 2 e 3 (30, 60 e 90 minutos após a AI, respectivamente). O Grupo I não apresentou alterações significativas entre os períodos nos parâmetros analisados (p>0,05). O Grupo II apresentou aumento significativo (p<0,05) em V, em Qe (Na+) e em Qe (K+) nos períodos Ex2 e Ex3, com redução significativa na PA (p<0,05) em Ex2 e Ex3. Conforme esperado, o Grupo III apresentou aumento significativo em V nos períodos Ex2 (p<0,05) e Ex3 (p<0,001), aumento em Qe (Na+) em Ex1 (p<0,05), Ex2 (p<0,001) e Ex3 (p<0,001) e aumento em Qe (K+) em Ex2 (p<0,05) e Ex3 (p<0,001), com redução significativa na PA (p<0,05) em Ex2 e Ex3. Os dados mostram que o EA do cabelo de milho possui efeito diurético, porém não age como um diurético "de alça", uma vez que não levou à expoliação de potássio e nem a uma excreção tão acentuada de sódio quanto à furosemida.
The corn (Z. mays) has in its stigmas (corn silks) substances that make it diuretic, which may be important in hypertension control. In this study, the effect of aqueous extract (AE) of corn silks on the renal flow of water (V) and electrolytes and arterial pressure (AP) was investigated in anesthetized Wistar rats. Three groups were tested: I) Control - intragastric administration (IA) of 1mL of distilled water, II) IA of 1 mL of AE of corn silks at 20% and III) IA of 1 mL of a solution containing furosemide. Cannulation was performed in the left carotid artery to measure AP, at every 10 minutes, and in the urinary bladder to measure V, at every 30 minutes, and the excreted load of ions sodium (Qe (Na+)) and potassium (Qe (K+)). Experimental protocol: four periods of 30 minutes each: basal (evaluation of basal parameters) and experimental (Ex) 1, 2 and 3 (30, 60 and 90 minutes after IA, respectively). Group I had no significant differences between periods for the analyzed parameters (p>0.05). Group II presented a significant increase (p<0.05) in V, Qe (Na+) and Qe (K+) in periods Ex2 and Ex3, with significant reduction in AP (p<0.05) in Ex2 and Ex3. As expected, Group III had a significant increase in V in periods Ex2 (p<0.05) and Ex3 (p<0.001), an increase in Qe (Na+) in Ex1 (p<0.05), Ex2 (p<0.001) and Ex3 (p<0.001) and an increase in Qe (K+) in Ex2 (p<0.05) and Ex3 (p<0.001), with an important reduction in AP (p<0.05) in Ex2 and Ex3. These data show that AE of corn silks has a diuretic effect but does not act as a loop diuretic since it did not lead to potassium loss or marked sodium loss, compared to furosemide.
