Farias, V. X.; Uchoa, P.N.; Aquino, Camila P.; Britto, L.R.G.; Fonteles, Manasses Claudino; Leal-Cardoso, José Henrique; Silva-Alves, Kerly Shamyra daThe transport of myo-inositol is the main mechanism for the maintenance of its high intracellular levels. We aimed to measure the mRNA and protein levels of myo-inositol cotransporters in the sciatic nerve (SN) and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) during experimental diabetes. Streptozotocin-induced (STZ; 4, 8, and 12 weeks; 65 mg/kg; ip) diabetic rats (DB) and age-matched euglycemic (E) rats were used for the analysi...
Comparative proteomic analysis of human whole saliva of children with protein–e...
Fonteles, Cristiane Sa Roriz; Santos, Claudia Ferreira dos; Alves, Karla Shangela da Silva; Mota, Ana Catarina de Miranda; Damasceno, Juliana XimenesObjective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the protein profile of children with different levels of protein–energy undernutrition (PEU) through a proteomic approach of human whole saliva. Methods: Initially, saliva samples of children with mild, moderate, and severe PEU were collected and lyophilized. Saliva samples of healthy children were used as controls. Samples were analyzed for total prote...
