1. Early Initiation of Extracorporeal Blood Purification Using the AN69ST (oXiris®) Hemofilter as a Treatment Modality for COVID-19 Patients: a Single-Centre Case Series
Abstract Introduction: Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is characterised by hyperinflammatory state, systemic coagulopathies, and multiorgan involvement, especially acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We here describe our preliminary clinical experience with COVID-19 patients treated via an early initiation of extracorporeal blood purifica

2. Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome and Infertility
Resumo A Síndrome do anticorpo antifosfolípide (SAF) é uma doença sistêmica, autoimune e prótrombótica caracterizada por anticorpos antifosfolípides, trombose, aborto recorrente, complicações durante a gestação, e, ocasionalmente, trombocitopenia. O objetivo do presente estudo foi revisar a fisiopatologia da SAF e sua associação com a infertili

3. Effects of budlein A on human neutrophils and lymphocytes
ABSTRACT Sesquiterpene lactones (SLs) are the active constituents of a variety of medicinal plants used in traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammatory diseases and other ailments. Objective In this study, we evaluated whether budlein A modulates the activation of innate and adaptive immune cells such as neutrophils and lymphocytes. Material and

4. Bothrops snake venoms and their isolated toxins, an L-amino acid oxidase and a serine protease, modulate human complement system pathways
Background Activation of the complement system plays an important role in the regulation of immune and inflammatory reactions, and contributes to inflammatory responses triggered by envenomation provoked byBothrops snakes. The present study aimed to assess whether Bothrops jararacussuand Bothrops pirajai crude venoms and their isolated toxins, namely serine

5. Plasticity of neutrophils reveals modulatory capacity
Neutrophils are widely known as proinflammatory cells associated with tissue damage and for their early arrival at sites of infection, where they exert their phagocytic activity, release their granule contents, and subsequently die. However, this view has been challenged by emerging evidence that neutrophils have other activities and are not so short-lived.

6. Anti-inflammatory sesquiterpene lactones from Tithonia diversifolia trigger different effects on human neutrophils
Abstract The tagitinins isolated of Tithonia diversifolia (Hemsl.) A. Gray, Asteraceae, are the most studied sesquiterpene lactones due to their wide spectrum of pharmacologic activities, especially related with nuclear factor-kappa B inhibition. Nevertheless, detailed studies about the mechanism of action of its active compounds are still lacking. Neutrophi

7. Efeito da ativação local do receptor capa opióide no extravasamento plasmático e migração de neutrófilos na articulação temporomandibular de ratos / Effect of local activation of opioid kappa receptors in plasma extravasation and neutrophil migration in the temporomandibular joint in rats
In an attempt to decrease central side effects associated with the use of opioids, some strategies have been developed by targeting peripheral opioid receptors. In this context, kappa opioid receptors are of major interest, since, in contrast to other opioid receptors, their activation is not associated with potent peripheral side effects. We have recently d

8. Papel dos leucócitos na fisiopatologia da anemia falciforme / Role of leukocytes in sickle cell anemia pathophysiology
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a disorder of hemoglobin synthesis, caused by a point mutation, and resulting in the production of abnormal sickle hemoglobin, HbS. The consequence of low oxygen levels is HbS polymerization, which is responsible for the vaso-occlusive phenomenon that is the hallmark of the disease. SCD is a chronic inflammatory disease character

9. Análise das células inflamatórias e da proteína anexina 1 no modelo de artrite experimental e reumatóide humana. / Analysis of the inflammatory cells and annexin 1 protein in the experimental model arthritis and in the human rheumatoid .
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disease characterized by auto-antibody formation, chronic inflammation and joint oedema resulting in injury of affected cartilage and adjacent bone. In the treatment of this disease glucocorticoids (GC) have been used, wich induce genic expression of anti-inflammatory mediators, such as the annexin 1 protein (Anx-A1), and proin

10. Modulação de eventos da imunidade humoral e celular por venenos brutos e componentes dos venenos de Bothrops jararacussu e Bothrops pirajai / Modulation of events of humoral and cellular immunity by crude venom and components of Bothrops jararacussu and Bothrops pirajai
Snakes of the genus Bothrops are responsible for 90% of snakebites in Brazil. Their venoms cause local effects in humans and animals, such as hemorrhage, edema, pain and necrosis, characteristic of an inflammatory response. The mechanism is not well defined. These effects are related to the combined action of proteases, substances that induce bleeding and ph

11. Ureases display biological effects independent of enzymatic activity. Is there a connection to diseases caused by urease-producing bacteria?
Ureases are enzymes from plants, fungi and bacteria that catalyze the hydrolysis of urea to form ammonia and carbon dioxide. While fungal and plant ureases are homo-oligomers of 90-kDa subunits, bacterial ureases are multimers of two or three subunit complexes. We showed that some isoforms of jack bean urease, canatoxin and the classical urease, bind to glyc

12. Influência do montelucaste sobre o estado de ativação dos eosinófilos e função dos fagócitos em crianças asmáticas
Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases in childhood and its prevalence and severity are increasing in many parts of the world in recent years. The main characteristic of asthma is inflammation of the lower airways, responsible for bronchial hyperresponsiveness and variable airflow limitation, reversible with or without treatment. Several cells pla
