Commonly used models for eliciting muscle pain involve the injection of algesic substances or the induction of delayed onset muscle soreness. The former require invasive procedures, and the time frame for pain induction and subsidence in the latter can be inconvenient. This study presents a detailed spatiotemporal characterization of a new experimental model of muscle […]
Colorectal cancer is one of the most prevalent pathologies worldwide whose prognosis is linked to early detection. Colonoscopy is the gold standard for screening, and diagnosis is usually made histologically from biopsies. Aiming to reduce the inspection and diagnostic time as well as the biopsies and resources involved, other techniques are being promoted to conduct
Chrysin is a natural flavonoid that despite having numerous biological properties, its therapeutic value is limited due to its very low solubility in aqueous media. In this work, chrysin was conjugated with methoxypolyethylene glycols (mPEGs) of different molecular weights (350, 500, 750, and 2000 g/mol), affording PEGylated chrysins with high yields and excellent purities. In
Until now, Molossus melini was known only from its type locality, in the south of Santa Fe province, Argentina. Specimens of this species were collected in 2021 from a roost in a Fraxinus tree of the urban woodland of Paraná city, Entre Ríos province, Argentina. Bat identification was made by comparing external and cranial characters
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is the most common cause of acute renal failure in the pediatric population. The etiology of HUS is linked to Gram-negative, Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing enterohemorrhagic bacterial infections. While the effect of Stx is focused on endothelial damage of renal glomerulus, cytokines induced by Stx or bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and polymorphonuclear cells
Photocatalytic building materials emerge as an alternative technology to improve air quality and prevent environmental and health problems. The photocatalytic oxidation process involves a semiconductor, generally TiO2, which, in the presence of oxygen and radiation of energy equal to or greater than the bandgap, generates electron–hole pairs capable of oxidizing a wide range of pollutants

The prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC), one of the most prevalent pathologies worldwide, is linked to early detection. Kudo’s pit pattern classification states morphological pit patterns of the Lieberkühn crypts by analyzing the superficial mucosa, predicting the histology of colorectal lesions. Its use as a highly accurate two-dimensional diagnostic criterion has increased, mostly involving expert
We analysed the immune response in acute ANDV-like HPS patients in Argentina from 2014 to 2019. This study cohort represents a unique collection of samples from different endemic regions in Argentina. Because HPS has low incidence, outbreaks provide unique opportunities to collect samples that avail the study of unexplored aspects of this disease. Our analysis
