Drosophila melanogaster - an embryonic model for studying behavioral and biochemical effects of manganese exposure.

EXCLI journal

Ternes AP, Zemolin AP, da Cruz LC, da Silva GF, Saidelles AP, de Paula MT, Wagner C, Golombieski RM, Flores ÉM, Picoloto RS, Pereira AB, Franco JL, Posser T.
PMID: 26417337
EXCLI J. 2014 Nov 21;13:1239-53. eCollection 2014.

Embryonic animals are especially susceptible to metal exposure. Manganese (Mn) is an essential element, but in excess it can induce toxicity. In this study we used Drosophila melanogaster as an embryonic model to investigate biochemical and behavioral alterations due...

Gestational experience alters sex allocation in the subsequent generation.

Royal Society open science

Edwards AM, Cameron EZ, Pereira JC, Wapstra E, Ferguson-Smith MA, Horton SR, Thomasson K.
PMID: 27493776
R Soc Open Sci. 2016 Jul 13;3(7):160210. doi: 10.1098/rsos.160210. eCollection 2016 Jul.

Empirical tests of adaptive maternal sex allocation hypotheses have presented inconsistent results in mammals. The possibility that mothers are constrained in their ability to adjust sex ratios could explain some of the remaining variation. Maternal effects, the influence of...

Brazilian Portuguese version of the Patient Competency Rating Scale (PCRS-R-BR): semantic adaptation and validity.

Trends in psychiatry and psychotherapy

Zimmermann N, Pereira AP, Fonseca RP.
PMID: 27000547
Trends Psychiatry Psychother. 2014 Jan-Mar;36(1):40-51. doi: 10.1590/2237-6089-2013-0021.

This study describes the adaptation of a revised Brazilian version of the Patient Competency Rating Scale (PCRS-R-BR), which focuses on executive, mnemonic, and attention functions. Evidence of content-based and external validity is also reported. The cross-cultural adaptation was conducted...

A population-based study of the stratum corneum moisture.

Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology

de Farias Pires T, Azambuja AP, Horimoto AR, Nakamura MS, de Oliveira Alvim R, Krieger JE, Pereira AC.
PMID: 27143945
Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol. 2016 Apr 18;9:79-87. doi: 10.2147/CCID.S88485. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: The stratum corneum (SC) has important functions as a bound-water modulator and a primary barrier of the human skin from the external environment. However, no large epidemiological study has quantified the relative importance of different exposures with regard...

Impact of Adiposity and Fat Distribution on the Dynamics of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Rhythms.

Current obesity reports

Roelfsema F, Pereira AM, Veldhuis JD.
PMID: 26626915
Curr Obes Rep. 2014 Dec;3(4):387-95. doi: 10.1007/s13679-014-0118-7.

Obesity impacts many hormonal systems, including pituitary hormones, as well as insulin and leptin. In this review we discuss articles which investigate the influence of obesity on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Different techniques have been used to assess the...

Acute effects of movement velocity on blood lactate and growth hormone responses after eccentric bench press exercise in resistance-trained men.

Biology of sport
