Chaves, Hellíada Vasconcelos; Val, Danielle Rocha do; Ribeiro, Kátia Alves; Lemos, Jonas Cavalcante; Souza, Ricardo BastoCHAVES, Hellíada Vasconcelos; Objective and design To investigate the role of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), carbon monoxide (CO), and biliverdin (BVD) in the zymosan-induced TMJ arthritis in rats. Materials and Methods Mechanical threshold was assessed before and 4 h after TMJ arthritis induction in rats. Cell influx, myeloperoxidase activity, and histological changes were measured in the TMJ lavages and tissues. Tr...
Efeito da hipertensão intracraniana sobre a complacência gástrica de ratos anes...

Since gastric compliance drives the gastric emptying of liquid which is inhibited by ICH, it was studied the ICH effect on gastric compliance behavior in anesthetized rats and the neuropathways possibly serving this phenomenon. Anesth...
