Purpose: To evaluate and compare neutrophils sequestration in the renal cortex of rats, result of total hepatic ischemia and reperfusion after controlled hemorrhagic shock, with use of different electrolytic solutions.

Methods: Used 18 rats Wistar, males, adult, divided into three groups as the solution used to reanimation: Group PSS: physiologic saline solution; Group HSS: hypertonic saline hypertonic (7.5%) followed by lactated ringer's solution; Group LRS: lactated ringer's solution. All the animals were submitted to the bleeding controlled until mean arterial pressure (MAP) 40 mmHg, for 20 minutes. Performed volemic replacement until PAM=80 mmHg with the solution according the studied group, followed by laparotomy and Pringle's Maneuver for 15 minutes. The animals were accompanied until for two hours. To statistical comparisons between mean of neutrophils sequestration, in interstitium of the renal cortex, were made the tests One-way ANOVA and covariance analysis, adjusting itself for time of supervened. The hemodynamic parameters evaluated were: MAP, heat rate, cardiac index, vascular resistance system index. The analyzed metabolic variables were: pH, bicarbonate, base deficit and lactato, besides electrolytes.

Results: The mean values of supervened, in minutes, for group were: Group PSS 79.0+/-12.0; Group LRS 97.0+/-11.0; Group HSS 67.0+/-10. The mean values of neutrophils/field in the renal cortex were: Group PSS 0.55+/-0.68; Group LRS 1.68+/-0.53; Group HSS 1.33+/-0.43. When adjusted for time of supervened: Group PSS 0.55; Group LRS 1.62; Group HSS 1.39. There was statistically significant difference in neutrophils sequestration, between Group PSS regarding the others groups, using itself or not the adjustment by time of supervened (p=0.016 and p=0.0128).

Conclusion: Both critical situations in this model, controlled hemorrhagic shock followed by Pringle's maneuver, promoted neutrophils sequestration in the interstitium renal of rat, and the physiologic saline solution demonstrated minor mean, differentiating statistically of the others solutions.

Sequestration of parasites in the placental vasculature causes increased morbidity and mortality in pregnant compared to non-pregnant patients in malaria- endemic regions. In this study, outbred pregnant CD1 mice with semi allogeneic fetuses were infected with transgenic or mock-inoculated by mosquito bite at either embryonic day (E) 6 (first trimester-equivalent) or 10 (second trimester- equivalent) and compared with non-pregnant females. -infected mosquitoes had greater biting avidity for E10 dams than uninfected mosquitoes, which was not apparent for E6 dams nor non-pregnant females.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a highly fatal pancreatic inflammation. In recent years, synthetic nanoparticles have been extensively developed as drug carriers to address the challenges of systemic adverse reactions and lack of specificity in drug delivery. However, systemically administered nanoparticle therapy is rapidly cleared from circulation by the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS), leading to suboptimal drug concentrations in inflamed tissues and suboptimal pharmacokinetics.

Article Synopsis
  • Anti-GD2 antibody therapy offers benefits for neuroblastoma patients, but its effectiveness is limited by the tumor's immunosuppressive environment.
  • Research shows that using copper chelation can enhance this therapy by improving immune responses, specifically by boosting the activity of neutrophils that help fight the tumor.
  • The study suggests repurposing the approved copper chelator Cuprior as a safe and effective method to improve the outcomes of anti-GD2 therapy in neuroblastoma patients.

Article Synopsis
  • Dengue virus (DENV) infection is a major global health concern, and a new whole-blood model using hirudin has been developed to study its immunopathogenesis more effectively.
  • This model shows that all major leukocyte populations, especially monocytes and granulocytes, are highly susceptible to DENV, with granulocytes identified as new key targets for the virus.
  • The study also confirms that B, NK, and T cells can be infected, indicating complex interactions within the immune response, and highlights the potential for this model to improve understanding of dengue disease and aid in developing new treatments.

Objective: To describe a case of presumed band keratopathy in a young cat with no known history of corneal disease who was not receiving topical phosphate-based steroids.

Animal Studied: A 10-month-old domestic shorthair cat was evaluated for severe ocular discomfort that did not improve despite the initiation of topical antibiotic treatment.

Methods: A complete ophthalmic examination and ancillary tests such as biomicroscopy and corneal cytology were performed at the time of presentation.
