• Abstract

  Inflammation is a critical component of tumor progression. The characteristics of these malignancies may be related to the inflammatory response present in the tumor. T lymphocytes secrete cytokines that direct the immune response to Th1 and Th2 cells, which are responsible for balancing the body's immune. The most efficient response against tumors would be cellular or cytotoxic (CD8 T ly…

  The influence of the immune response on the mammary carcinomas in female dogs, AP.R

• Abstract

  Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) is a zoonotic disease that has been gained attention lately due to increased dissemination in several regions of Brazil, with a minor expression in the southern region, which may be attributed to cold climate conditions which are less favorable for the vector surviving. Urban areas have been described as locations of higher incidence of the disease in both huma…

  MIF, iNOS and MHC class II expression in macrophages of lymph nodes of the dogs with visceral leishmaniasis, AP.R

• Abstract

  Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) is an anthropozoonosis, widely distributed around the world, which can affect humans, dogs, and wild animals, whose etiological agent is the protozoan Leishmania infantum. Dogs are considered the main reservoir of the disease in urban areas, representing a major public health problem. The symptoms of the disease are multivariate and may also affect the reproduc…

  Relationship between progesterone levels and genital system injuries of bitches naturally infected with Leishmania infantum, BP.IC

• Abstract

  In Visceral Leishmaniasis (LV), the parasite Leishmania infantum chagasi infects the vertebrate hosts by means of the vector (Lutzomyia longipalpis), the dogs being the main domestic reservoirs of the disease, besides being a source of infection for man. In dogs, clinical signs include skin lesions (alopecia, desquamation, ulcers, crusting), progressive thinning of cachexia, onychogrifosi…

  Relationship between STAT6 and chronic kidney injury in dogs with Visceral Leishmaniasis, BP.IC

• Abstract

  Visceral Leishmaniasis (LV) is caused by the protozoan Leishmania infantum, which from its inoculation in the primary cutaneous site of the dog, can infect several organs, causing an imbalance of the immune system. The nail bed is the site responsible for the growth of the nail and in dogs with LV onychogrifose, which is the exaggerated growth of the nails, is a clinical finding little st…
