Porous bioceramics called scaffolds have been studied for bone replacement and repair, with properties that meet the functionality and integration between the biomaterial and the biological system. Al2O3 and Al2O3/ZrO2 bioceramics are recognized as biomaterials due to their improved mechanical properties, high chemical stability and biocompatibility when compared to other materials. Howev…

The Faculty of Animal Science and Food Engineering FZEA / USP has been experiencing large growth in recent years, from a total of 80 students in 1993 when it was founded, to the current 1,711 students (undergraduate and postgraduate), with all undergraduate classes fully implemented in 2019. This growth, while very beneficial for research, as it allows for a significant increase in critic…

Cutaneous Habronemiasis is a dermatological condition caused by the larvae of gastric parasites of the genus Habronema, transmitted by contaminated flies. It affects horses of all age groups, causing granulomatous wounds that are difficult to heal. It is a disease of great economic interest and there is no specific treatment, with healing ointments and bandages commonly used on the limbs,…
The general objective of this study is to evaluate the radiographic, B-mode ultrasonographic and elastographic characteristics of the pulmonary and pleural structures of dogs exposed to tobacco smoke, with the aim of: 1) determining the pulmonary pattern(s) associated(s) with tobacco exposure; 2) to verify possible alterations in the aspects of the A-lines, thickness and sliding of the pl…
The livestock are among the main economic activities in Brazil, due the notoriety increasedin research that has been done to the improvement and development of this field activity.Many of the innovations in this area crossed to the animal reproduction process with theimplementation of assisted reproduction technique( ART), fixed time artificial inseminationprotocols (FTAI), embryo transfe…
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by the autoimmune destruction of the myelin sheath that leads the patient to irreversible and progressive functional deficits. Preclinical studies using neural stem cells have already shown their potential in neuronal regeneration and remyelination. However, the use of cell therapy alone has n…
The production and commercialization of recombinant proteins is an ever-expanding multi-billion dollar market. Due to the limitations of production models in bacteria and yeast, alternative methods, such as those based on mammalian cells, have emerged. One of the most promising approaches in this sense is to produce recombinant proteins in the mammary glands of bovines taking advantage of…

The mitochondrial Transcription Factor A or TFAM is a member of the high mobility group proteins (HMGB) family that regulates mtDNA transcription, packaging, stability and replication. It binds to mtDNA promoters and plays an essential role in the mtDNA stress-mediated inflammatory response. Recently it was demonstrated that TFAM is required to maintain mtDNA integrity and that it is a ke…
The function of the cells present in the primary yolk sac is still unknown and the secondary yolk sac, although it is responsible for the initial nutrition of the fetus, it functions still remains questioned. And the two-dimensional in vitro (2D) culture of this structure does not provide accurate information about the composition, architecture and function of this tissue. So, to resolve …
The diaphragm is the main muscle of breathing that in action with other respiratory muscles performs chest wall expansion and therefore pulmonary ventilation. The Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic recessive disease characterized by severe and progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Occurs due a mutation in the gene encoding the 427 kDa protein, called dystrophin and affects …
