• Abstract

  Inflammatory Bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of gut that includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Although current drugs are only used to control IBD symptoms, the correct differentiation between UC and CD is a determining factor to better choose of pharmacological treatment. In addition, the complex, unclear and inexact aetiology of IBD is a limi…

• Abstract

  The inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis, are multifactorial disorders of the gut. Although the pathogenesis is poorly understood, there is evidence that it involves interactions among the immune system, genetic susceptibility, and environmental factors, mainly the bacterial flora. A major limitation in understanding the pathogenetic mechanisms responsi…

• Abstract

  This proposal aims to gather knowledge on different aspects of the secretion biology and chemistry features in plant species from Cerrado, belonging to Apocynaceae, Bignoniaceae, Bromeliaceae, Fabaceae, Malpighiaceae and Rubiaceae families. We have to stress that the secretory structures play essential role in the production and isolation of secondary metabolites that play several functio…

• Abstract

  Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract that includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Although the drugs available are used only to treat the symptoms of IBD, the correct differentiation between UC and CD is a determining factor in choosing the most appropriate pharmacological treatment. On the other hand, the comp…

• Abstract

  Green dwarf banana flour (Musa sp AAA) has an important protective effect on intestinal inflammation induced by TNBS and DSS in rats. The studies carried out so far by our research group show that these protective effects are mainly associated with increased production of short- chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and, secondarily to the presence of phenolic compounds that give the product antioxid…
