Studies on chromosomes of lymphocyte cultures of peripheral blood were performed in 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (group I: 48-h culture, n = 8; group II; 72-h culture, n = 7) before and after phenylbutazone infusion therapy (600 mg/d for 10 days). The average rate of cells with exchange aberrations of chromosomal type after this therapy (group I: 0.52%; group II: 0.69%) was higher than the control values found before treatment (group I: 0.13%; group II: 0%); X2 test: group I + II: P less than 0.025. The results obtained are discussed.

Lapachol (LAP), a natural 1,4-naphthoquinone used in popular medicine in South America, is an antioxidant and antimicrobial compound in teas and infusions and used as a food additive; however, its interactive profile with the main protein carrier of compounds in the human bloodstream (human serum albumin, HSA) was not still characterized. Additionally, the impact of LAP in binding clinically drugs to albumin is still unknown. Thus, the present work describes the interaction HSA:LAP using different biophysical techniques, i.

Currently, approaches to pain control in horses are a mixture of art and science. Recognition of overt pain behaviours, such as rolling, kicking at the abdomen, flank watching, lameness or blepharospasm, may be obvious; subtle signs of pain can include changes in facial expression or head position, location in the stall and response to palpation or human interaction. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (i.
