Biocompatibility in vivo of elastic cartilage treated in alkaline solutions
Araújo,D.P.; Araujo,G.H.M.; Oliveira,L.P.; Leite,L.B.M.; Franzo,V.S.; Santos,G.P.; Souza,T.R.; Vulcani,V.A.S.ABSTRACT This study verified the in vivo biocompatibility of bovine elastic cartilage decellularized with alkaline solution in relation to the non-decellularized cartilage implanted in rats. Fifty Wistar rats were divided into two groups, with the experimental group (EG) receiving subcutaneous implants of cartilage treated in alkaline solution and the control group (CG) receiving subcutaneous implants of untrea...

Macêdo,D.S.; Araújo,D.P.; Sampaio,L.R.L.; Vasconcelos,S.M.M.; Sales,P.M.G.; Sousa,F.C.F.; Hallak,J.E.; Crippa,J.A.; Carvalho,A.F.Prenatal immune challenge (PIC) in pregnant rodents produces offspring with abnormalities in behavior, histology, and gene expression that are reminiscent of schizophrenia and autism. Based on this, the goal of this article was to review the main contributions of PIC models, especially the one using the viral-mimetic particle polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid (poly-I:C), to the understanding of the etiolo...
