Role of the Southern Annular Mode in the sea level over the southern Blue Amazon.

Regional sea level rise varies from the global average and is influenced by climate variability. We studied sea level anomalies in southern Brazil from 1993 to 2022, finding increasing trend from 1993 to 2022. We used oceanic and atmospheric dynamics to understand the rapid sea level rise.

Effect of IL-10 and TNF-α on the competence and cryosurvival of in vitro produced Bos indicus embryos.

In vitro-produced embryos are constantly exposed to stressful conditions that can lead to the activation of the apoptotic pathway. The nuclear Kappa B factor (NF-κB) is an inflammatory mediator that induces the expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), a pro-inflammatory cytokine, while interleukin-10 (IL-10), an anti-inflammatory cytokine, inhibits NF-κB activity. This study aimed to investigate the effects of IL-10 and TNF-α on the competence and cryosurvival of in vitro-produced bovine embryos.

Species-specific molecular differentiation of embryonic inner cell mass and trophectoderm: A systematic review.

A wide-ranging review study regarding the molecular characterization of the first cell lineages of the developmental embryo is lacking, especially for the primary events during earliest differentiation which leads to the determination of cellular fate. Here, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. MEDLINE-PubMed was searched based on an established search strategy through April 2021.

Cyclodextrins-in-Liposomes: A Promising Delivery System for and Essential Oils.

Biological activity of essential oils (EOs) has been extensively reported; however, their low aqueous solubility, high photosensitivity, and volatility compromise a broad industrial use of these compounds. To overcome these limitations, we proposed a nanoencapsulation approach to protect EOs, that aims to increase their stability and modulate their release profile. In this study, drug-in-cyclodextrin-in-liposomes encapsulating two essential oils ( and ) and their respective major compounds (thymol and eugenol) were produced by ethanol injection and freeze-dried to form proliposomes and further physicochemically characterized.
