ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of concentrations of caffeine on the viability, synthesis activity and gene expression in cultures of chondrocytes. Extracted articular cartilage from the femurs and tibias of 15 Wistar rats at three days old to isolate chondrocytes. Chondrocytes were cultured in chondrogenic medium (control) or supplemented with caffeine (0.5, 1.0, 2.0mM). Cell viability, alkaline phosphatase activity and collagen synthesis were assessed using colorimetric assays at 7, 14, 21 days. The chondrocyte cultures of all groups grown under coverslips were stained with hematoxylin-eosin to determine the percentage of cells/field and with PAS, safranin O, alcian blue to determine the percentage of matrix chondrogenic/field... |

O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar os efeitos da ingestão materna de diferentes doses de cafeína durante a gestação e a lactação, na pele de ratas-mães e filhotes, bem como sua relação com as concentrações séricas do cortisol materno. Vinte e quatro ratas Wistar adultas foram distribuídas em quatro grupos, representados pelo controle e tratados, com cafeína nas doses de 25, 50 e 100mg/kg. Os grupos tratados receberam cafeína por sonda orogástrica durante toda a gestação e a lactação. O controle recebeu água destilada como placebo. Foram avaliados e quantificados os diferentes tipos de folículos pilosos e a espessura da epiderme. A técnica de imuno-histoquímica, com o uso do anticorpo anti-CDC47, foi utilizada para avaliar a proliferação celular da... |

ABSTRACT The objective was to evaluate the in vitro effect of prolactin in osteogenic potential of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) in female rats. ADSCs were cultured in osteogenic medium with and without the addition of prolactin and distributed into three groups: 1) ADSCs (control), 2) ADSCs with addition of 100ng/mL of prolactin and 3) ADSCs with addition of 300ng/mL of prolactin. At 21 days of differentiation, the tests of MTT conversion into formazan crystals, percentage of mineralized nodules and cells per field and quantification of genic transcript for alkaline phosphatase, osteopontin, osteocalcin, bone sialoprotein, BMP-2 and collagen I by real-time RT-PCR were made. The addition of prolactin reduced the conversion of MTT in... |
