K. Koch in the Treatment of Skin Inflammation: A Comprehensive Evaluation of Its Therapeutic Properties.

is a plant widely cultivated for food and medicinal purposes. species have been reported as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anxiolytic, and antinephritic agents. This study aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory potential of the ethanolic extract (EE) from the aerial parts of and its most promising fraction in models of acute and chronic inflammation, including a psoriasis-like mouse model.

TREATMENT OF GASTRIC CANCER ACCORDING TO THE COMPLEXITY OF THE HOSPITAL ONCOLOGY UNIT: ANALYSIS OF 33,774 PATIENTS OVER TWO DECADES.

Background: The hospitals' volume, specialization, availability of all oncological services, and experience in performing complex surgeries have a favorable impact on gastric cancer (GC) treatment.

Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the results of GC treatment according to the type of oncological hospital in the State of São Paulo.

Methods: Patients diagnosed with GC between 2000 and 2022 in qualified hospitals for cancer treatment were evaluated by data extracted from the hospital cancer registry.

Parasitic fauna of wild boars (Sus scrofa) from the northwestern region of São Paulo state, Brazil.

In Brazil, the wild boar (Sus scrofa) is the main invasive exotic species, responsible for causing various economic, environmental, and health damages to biodiversity. In view of the above, we aimed in our study to investigate the occurrence of endo and ectoparasites in free-ranging wild boars in the northwest region of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. In total, 45 animals of different sexes and ages were examined in this research.

Stachys byzantina K. Koch (Lamiaceae) as a potential ingredient for delaying skin ageing and treating hyperpigmentation disorders in pharmaceutical products.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate whether the plant species Stachys byzantina produces bioactives with the potential to delay the skin ageing process and treat hyperpigmentation conditions.

Methods: The antioxidant action was assessed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazylradical scavenging, Griess reaction, oxygen radical absorption capacity, and β-carotene bleaching assays. Inhibitory activities for tyrosinase, hyaluronidase, and elastase enzymes were tested.

Exploring the molecular pathways of the activation process in PPARγ recurrent bladder cancer mutants.

The intricate involvement of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Gamma (PPARγ) in glucose homeostasis and adipogenesis is well-established. However, its role in cancer, particularly luminal bladder cancer, remains debated. The overexpression and activation of PPARγ are implicated in tumorigenesis.
