1. Astaxanthin protects against hearing impairment in diabetic rats
Abstract Objectives: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) causes an increase in oxidative stress that leads to deterioration in auditory functions. Astaxanthine (AST) is known to have strong antioxidant effects. In this study, the aim is to investigate the effect of AST against hearing loss that is due to DM. Methods: This study is an experimental animal study. The stud

2. FUZZY LOGIC MODELING OF THE OCULAR TEMPERATURE OF CATTLE IN THERMAL STRESS CONDITIONS
ABSTRACT This study proposes a fuzzy logic model capable of predicting the ocular temperature (OT) of beef cattle by means of infrared thermography. The goal of this study is to establish a methodology for making decisions related to animal welfare. The experiment was carried out at a commercial beef production farm, located in the south of Minas Gerais stat

4. Effects of growth hormone in the central nervous system
ABSTRACT Growth hormone (GH) is best known for its effect stimulating tissue and somatic growth through the regulation of cell division, regeneration and proliferation. However, GH-responsive neurons are spread over the entire central nervous system, suggesting that they have important roles in the brain. The objective of the present review is to summarize a

5. A review on medicinal plants used for treating ototoxicity and acoustic trauma induced hearing loss
Hearing loss induced by chemotherapy and acoustic trauma is mainly associated with two factors, free radical formation and apoptosis pathway activation. Despite numerous efforts on reducing the effects of these factors, no definite strategy is still determined to interfere with and control these processes. In recent studies, various protective agents, includ

6. Effect of Arrabidaea chica extract against chemically induced breast cancer in animal model
Abstract Purpose: To examine the effects of Arrabidaa chica (Bignoniacea) extract, a native plant of the Amazon known as crajiru, on a 7,12-dimethyl-1,2-benzanthracene (DMBA)-induced breast cancer model in Wistar rats. Methods: We compared the response of breast cancer to the oral administration of A. chica extract (ACE) for 16 weeks, associated or not wit

7. Vitamin B6 reduces oxidative stress in lungs and liver in experimental sepsis
Abstract Abstract: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction induced by a disrupted host response to infecting pathogens. Inflammation and oxidative stress are intrinsically related to sepsis progression and organ failure. Vitamin B6 is an important cellular cofactor for metabolic processes and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. We aimed

8. Influence of social stress on value of minimal anesthetic concentration of isuflurano in guan (Penelope obscura) captured in wildlife
RESUMO: Este estudo teve como objetivo determinar e avaliar se há diferença nos valores de CAM em jacus (Penelope obscura) capturados em vida livre e submetidos a diferentes condições de estresse social. Foram utilizadas 27 aves da espécie jacu (P. obscura) de vida livre, que depois de capturados foram alocados em dois grupos: 10 animais que permanecera

9. Effects of carvacrol and physical exercise on motor and memory impairments associated with Parkinson’s disease
RESUMO O presente estudo foi realizado para investigar os efeitos do carvacrol e do exercício em esteira sobre o déficit de memória, comportamento rotacional e biomarcadores de estresse oxidativo em um modelo animal (ratos lesionados por 6-OHDA) da doença de Parkinson (DP). Ratos Wistar foram tratados com carvacrol na dose de 25 mg/kg e/ou correram em um

10. Thermal comfort and grazing behavior of Girolando heifers in integrated crop-livestock (ICL) and crop-livestock-forest (ICLF) systems
ABSTRACT. To compare the integrated crop-livestock-forest (ICLF) and crop-livestock (ICL) systems in relation to thermal comfort and grazing behavior of Girolando heifers, a 2 × 2 crossover trial (two system and two periods) was carried out with eight – Holstein × ¼ Gyr heifers in Xaraés-palisade grass pasture under intermittent stocking with 10 days o

11. Morpho-physiology, yield, and water-use efficiency of Opuntia ficus-indica irrigated with saline water
ABSTRACT. Forage cactus pear is considered a xerophilic plant, so it is adapted to harsh semiarid conditions and is a forage resource of significant importance for animal production in regions that are subject to food shortage and long dry periods. We aimed to evaluate the morphometric and physiologic characteristics and water-use efficiency of ‘Gigante’

12. Feline herpesvirus 1 viral load related to environmental factors in sheltered cats
RESUMO: No ambiente do abrigo encontram-se fatores que geram estresse nos animais que ali residem. Esses fatores acabam por provocar a reativação do FHV-1. No entanto, comparações entre carga viral conjuntival e fatores ambientais não foram ainda avaliadas. Objetivo deste estudo foi correlacionar a carga viral de FHV-1 em felinos domésticos com e sem
