Diagnosis of Fibrotic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis: Is There a Role for Biomark...

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is a complex interstitial lung syndrome and is associated with significant morbimortality, particularly for fibrotic disease. This condition is characterized by sensitization to a specific antigen, whose early identification is associated with improved outcomes. Biomarkers measure objectively biologic processes and may support clinical decisions. These tools evolved to play a crucia...

Wilson’s Disease: A Prevalence Study in a Portuguese Population

Introduction Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare and underdiagnosed genetic disorder caused by anomalous tissue copper deposition, and for which epidemiological studies, specifically in Portugal, are scarce. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and incidence of WD and provide a description of its main clinical and laboratory features. Methods A retrospective study was carried out, with a search be...

Characterization of the transcriptional signatures associated with resistance a...

Coffee leaf rust (CLR), a disease caused by the biotrophic fungus Hemileia vastatrix (Hv), is the main threat to the worldwide production of Arabica coffee. The gradual breakdown of resistance in coffee varieties in the last years has highlighted the need for novel sources of resistance to CLR. This work aimed to unveil the cellular and molecular resistance profile of the Kawisari hybrid (C. arabica x C. liberi...

Burguesia e extrema direita no Brasil: nota introdutória

This text presents the dossier Bourgeoisie and extreme right in Brazil. A dossier about this theme becomes necessary in Brazil due to the rise of the extreme right and the election of the Bolsonaro administration. In this process, it is possible to identify a trend: the cooption of extreme-right movements by the bourgeoisie. As a political movement traditionally originate din the middle sectors of capitalist so...

SUMO E3 ligase SIZ1 connects sumoylation and reactive oxygen species homeostasi...

The ubiquitin-like modifying peptide SMALL UBIQUITIN-LIKE MODIFIER (SUMO) has become a known modulator of the plant response to multiple environmental stimuli. A common feature of many of these external stresses is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Taking into account that SUMO conjugates rapidly accumulate in response to an external oxidative stimulus, it is likely that ROS and sumoylation conve...

Reflexões e pensamentos sobre a Pedagogia da Esperança de Paulo Freire

O presente artigo nasce como resultado da escuta de várias comunicações no âmbito do Centenário de Paulo Freire em conjunto com leituras que foram sendo feitas para a minha tese de Doutoramento, nascendo de um encontro feliz entre ambas as atividades. Não é possível ver apenas um Educador, um Filosofo ou um Sociólogo, nem também ver em Paulo Freire um Museólogo Social. Paulo Freire assume-se como um homem compl...
