Selection and characterization of peptides mimetic to Campylobacter fetus subsp...
Ribeiro,Eduardo Lara; Fujimura,Patrícia Tiemi; Ueira-Vieira,Carlos; Goulart,Luiz Ricardo; Alves,Telma Maria; Lage,Andrey Pereira; Heinemann,Marcos BryanABSTRACT: Bovine genital campylobacteriosis (BGC) is a venereal and subclinical disease that affects the fertility of cattle herds, and it is caused by Campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis . This study selected peptides mimetic to the BGC-causing agent from a phage library. Phage display is a technique that applies bacteriophage libraries that reveal peptides fused to the viral capsid in biological selections ...
Análise qualitativa das experiências anômalas em indivíduos com vivências psicó...
Fernandes,Rodrigo; Scalia,Luana; Wolkers,Paula; Ueira-Vieira,CarlosResumo Introdução: As experiências anômalas vivenciadas por médiuns espíritas são objeto de interesse da psiquiatria transcultural, pela necessidade de se diferenciar vivências Religiosas/Espirituais de vivências patológicas. Objetivo: descrever e compreender as vivências sobre experiências anômalas narradas por médiuns espíritas brasileiros pela ótica da fenomenologia e da psiquiatria transcultural. Métodos: T...
Deep sequencing analysis of toad Rhinella schneideri skin glands and partial bi...
Shibao,Priscila Yumi Tanaka; Cologna,Camila Takeno; Morandi-Filho,Romualdo; Wiezel,Gisele Adriano; Fujimura,Patricia Tiemi; Ueira-Vieira,CarlosAbstract Background: Animal poisons and venoms are sources of biomolecules naturally selected. Rhinella schneideri toads are widespread in the whole Brazilian territory and they have poison glands and mucous gland. Recently, protein from toads’ secretion has gaining attention. Frog skin is widely known to present great number of host defense peptides and we hypothesize toads present them as well. In this study,...
Epigenetic modifications and their relation to caste and sex determination and ...
Cardoso-Júnior,Carlos A.M.; Fujimura,Patrícia Tieme; Santos-Júnior,Célio Dias; Borges,Naiara Araújo; Ueira-Vieira,Carlos; Hartfelder,KlausAbstract Stingless bees of the genus Melipona, have long been considered an enigmatic case among social insects for their mode of caste determination, where in addition to larval food type and quantity, the genotype also has a saying, as proposed over 50 years ago by Warwick E. Kerr. Several attempts have since tried to test his Mendelian two-loci/two-alleles segregation hypothesis, but only recently a single g...
Insights into the Melipona scutellaris (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Meliponini) fat bo...
Sousa,Cristina Soares de; Serrão,José Eduardo; Bonetti,Ana Maria; Amaral,Isabel Marques Rodrigues; Kerr,Warwick Estevam; Maranhão,Andréa QueirozThe insect fat body is a multifunctional organ analogous to the vertebrate liver. The fat body is involved in the metabolism of juvenile hormone, regulation of environmental stress, production of immunity regulator-like proteins in cells and protein storage. However, very little is known about the molecular mechanisms involved in fat body physiology in stingless bees. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptom...
Characterization of DNA polymorphisms in Caryocar brasiliense (Camb.) in popula...
Londe,Luciana N.; Ueira-Vieira,Carlos; Kerr,Warwick E.; Bonetti,Ana MariaCaryocar brasiliense (pequi), is one of the main species at the biome of the Brazilian savannah due to its use in culinary, popular medicine, industry in general, and iron and steel industry. At São José do Xingu (MT), a tree of C. brasiliense without thorn at the endocarp was found, which enables the improvement of C. brasiliense not only for consumption but also to the high appreciation it already has. To det...
