Insights on the Separation of Kraft Lignin from Betaine-Based Eutectic Solvents: A Liquid–Liquid Equilibrium and Partitioning Study Open
Lignocellulosic biomass, composed predominantly of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, is the main raw material for biorefineries. Eutectic solvents (ESs) are promising green alternatives for biomass delignification due to their low cost…

Ageing affects the CD4+ T cell polarization and mucosal tropism induced by TLR2/TLR4-activated dendritic cells Open
Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 activation induces aldehyde dehydrogenase enzymes in nonmucosal dendritic cells (DCs) enabling them to metabolize vitamin A into all-trans retinoic acid, which induces the expression of mucosal homing molecules (α…

PROJETO DE EXTENSÃO: A IMPORTÂNCIA E OS DESAFIOS DA AMAMENTAÇÃO EXCLUSIVA Open
A amamentação é uma das etapas mais significativas do processo reprodutivo feminino, proporcionando benefícios tanto para a mãe quanto para o recém-nascido. (GALLO et al; 2008). O aleitamento materno é um processo fisiológico que oferece d…

Combined TLR2/TLR4 activation equip non-mucosal dendritic cells to prime Th1 cells with gut tropism Open
Activated CD4+ T cells located at mucosal surfaces orchestrate local effector immune mechanisms. When properly polarized, these cells contribute to block infections at early stages and may be essential to restrain the local grow…

The evolution of animal Argonautes: evidence for the absence of antiviral AGO Argonautes in vertebrates Open
In addition to mediating regulation of endogenous gene expression, RNA interference (RNAi) in plants and invertebrates plays a crucial role in defense against viruses via virus-specific siRNAs. Different studies have demonstrated that the …
