Essential Oils Of Caatinga Plants With Deletary Action For Aedes Aegypti: A Review
Marques, Daniel Maciel; Rocha, Joanna de Freitas; Almeida, Thiago Silva de; Mota, Erika FreitasIn Brazil, Aedes aegypti mosquito is the most frequent vector of some arboviruses, such as dengue, yellow fever, Zika and chikungunya. The use of synthetic insecticides to combat this vector has been compromised due to the development of resistant populations and the collateral damage caused to nature. Essential oils (EO) have been studied as an alternative to synthetic insecticide. Thus, the objective of this ...

Morais, Luciana Moura; Bezerra, Arnaldo Solheiro; Lima, Jakson Fernandes; Lima, Weslley Moreira Alencar de; Lima, Carla Laíne SilvaGames provide fun and can serve as a tool for learning and behavior change. Thus, the objective was to develop and apply a manual and virtual game to work on food education forchildren with Down Syndrome, with or without food allergy, seeking to instruct and compare the efficiency of the methodologies used through play. For the development of the virtual game software, the construction platform Delphi 10.1 Berl...
Hydrogel and membrane scaffold formulations of Frutalin (breadfruit lectin) wit...
Sousa, Felipe Domingos de; Vasconselos, Pedrinha Diógenes; Silva, Ayrles Fernanda Brandão da; Mota, Erika Freitas; Tomé, Adriana da RochaPlant lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins, which can interact with cell surfaces to initiate anti-inflammatory pathways, as well as immunomodulatory functions. Here, we have extracted, purified and part-characterized the bioactivity of Jacalin, Frutalin, DAL and PNA, before evaluating their potential for wound healing in cultured human skin fibroblasts. Only Frutalin stimulated fibroblast migration in vit...
Anti-inflammatory and wound healing potential of cashew apple juice (Anacardium...
Vasconcelos, Mirele da Silveira; Rochette, Neuza F Gomes; Oliveira, Maria Liduına M de; Pinheiro, Diana Celia S Nunes; Tomé, Adriana RCashew apple is a tropical pseudofruit consumed as juice due to its excellent nutritional and sensory properties. In spite of being well known for its important antioxidant properties, the cashew apple has not been thoroughly investigated for its therapeutic potential. Thereby, this study evaluated the antioxidant capacity, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing activities of cashew apple juice. Juices from ripe ...

Costa, José Hélio; Mota, Erika Freitas; Cambursano, Mariana Virginia; Lauxmann, Martin Alexander; Oliveira, Luciana Maia Nogueira deCowpea (Vigna unguiculata) alternative oxidase is encoded by a small multigene family (Aox1, 2a and 2b) that is orthologous to the soybean Aox family. Like most of the identified Aox genes in plants, VuAox1 and VuAox2 consist of 4 exons interrupted by 3 introns. Alignment of the orthologous Aox genes revealed high identity of exons and intron variability, which is more prevalent in Aox1. In order to determine A...
