Cyclodextrin-complexed Ocimum basilicum leaves essential oil increases Fos prot...
Nascimento, Simone de Souza; Araujo, Adriano Antunes de Souza; Brito, Renan Guedes de; Serafini, Mairim Russo; Menezes, Paula dos PassosO. basilicum leaves produce essential oils (LEO) rich in monoterpenes. The short half-life and water insolubility are limitations for LEO medical uses. β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) has been employed to improve the pharmacological properties of LEO. We assessed the antihyperalgesic profile of LEO, isolated or complexed in β-CD (LEO/β-CD), on an animal model for fibromyalgia. Behavioral tests: mice were treated every da...
Absorption levels and morphological features of fetal organs in wistar rats tre...
Bomfim, Kátia Michelle dos Anjos; Garcia, Carlos Alexandre Borges; Reis, Francisco Prado; Palmeira, José Arnaldo Vasconcelos; Scher, RicardoLead is one of the heavy metals most used in industry. Poisoning due to long-term lead exposure is known as saturnism, and is an occupational illness that has been known for many years. Lead is highly toxic and can compromise the structural and functional patterns of organs and systems. The aim of this study was to examine the lungs and kidneys of fetuses from female Wistar rats exposed to lead acetate. In this...
