Abstract

Preliminary results obtained in the Masters project "Investigation of new thiazolidine compounds effects in animal model of metabolic syndrome", demonstrated that this new thiazolidine compound, GQ-11, has in vivo immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and hypoglycemic effects, besides of angiogenic actions showed in previous in vitro studies of our group, what predicts a promising therapeutic strategy in wound healing, from homeostasis promotion at healing process. So, to expand this investigation, a collaboration between the Clinical Biochemistry Laboratory, supervised by Prof. Dulcineia Saes Parra Abdalla at the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences of University of São Paulo and the Cardiology and Pharmacology Laboratory, supervised by Prof. Marcelo Bonini, at University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) was established to develop complementary studies to investigate the actions of the new thiazolidine compounds (GQ-11, GQ-02, GQ-177 and Lyso-7) on healing process by using MKR mice.
