Article Synopsis
- Jatropha elliptica roots are traditionally used to treat gastric ulcers, and this study investigates the gastroprotective effects and toxicity of its ethanol extract and hexane fraction in mice.
- The findings show that both the extracts significantly reduced gastric lesions in ulcer models without causing any acute toxicity symptoms.
- Key compounds identified include fraxetin and jatrophone, with cyperenoic acid showing notable potency in reducing gastric lesions and preserving the gastric mucus layer, indicating its potential as a protective agent.
Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound therapy under different pulse regimes on cultures of semiconfluent L929 fibroblasts, evaluating cell viability, anatomical structural alterations, modulation of vascular endothelial growth factor, interleukin 6, collagen type 1 alpha 1, collagen type 1 alpha 2, and fibroblast growth factor 7, as well as the amount of inflammatory mediators interleukin 2, interleukin 4, interleukin 6, interferon γ, tumor necrosis factor, interleukin 17A, and interleukin 10 at 24, 48, and 72 hrs.
Design: The design was experimental study.
Methods: The treatments consisted of 0.

Objective: Morphological study of effects of silver sulfadiazine, Tabebuia avellanedae (ipê-roxo) extract and Stryphnodendron adstringens (barbatimão) extract on cutaneous wound healing was done.
Methods: Ninety six Wistar rats were used. All animals underwent a femoral right vein ligation to induce a venous hypertension.
