The lasertherapy becomes an important strategy that aids the repair, especially in CR. Thus, it is important to investigate the InGaAlP-660 nm laser as an strategy to repair cutaneous wounds in rats submitted to 30% of CR and to understand the tissue repair in clinical situations of CR. Thirty-six male Wistar rats were used, of which half were fed with 30% less ration, and half with ad libitum diet, for 21 days. Then, punch lesions of 1.5 cm in diameter were made on the animals backs, which were divided into: NR (no-restricted), R (restricted)-both before lesion; C (control), RC (restricted-control), L (laser), RL (restricted-laser)-after lesion. Samples of the skin/lesion/scar were collected on the 2nd, 7th and 14th days post-injury for histological, biochemical and molecular analyses. The R group showed reduction of body mass, epidermal/dermal thickness, inflammation, angiogenesis, fibroplasia and collagenesis. The RL group showed control of inflammation, oxidative damage and increase of antioxidants than RC, which probably favored angiogenesis, collagenesis and reepithelialization, similar to C and L. Thus, 30% of CR impaired the skin (before lesion). In the lesion, lasertherapy has shown to be effective in tissue repair mainly in CR status, being thus, the laser clinically important strategy to tissue repair in critical situations of caloric restriction.展开更多

This study investigated the efficacy of the Casearia sylvestris in the burn repair in diabetic and non-diabetic rats. Methods: The animals were divided into four groups (n = 20): (C) non-diabetics treated with carbopol gel; (G) non-diabetic treated with C. sylvestris extract in carbopol gel; (DM-C) diabetics treated with carbopol gel; (DM-G) diabetics treated with C. sylvestris extract in carbopol gel. Burn was induced using a metal plate (2 cm diameter/120 °C/20 sec). Samples were collected on the 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st days after the injury for histomorphometric analysis (inflammatory infiltrate, fibroblasts, blood vessels and collagen), MPO (Myeloperoxidase) and NAG (N-Acetilglicosaminidase) dosage, hydroxyproline, glycosaminoglycans, TGF-β1, VEGF, collagen I and III. Key findings: C. sylvestris decreased the inflammatory process during the experimental period in diabetic and non-diabetic animals which has been demonstrated by MPO, NAG quantification, and TGF-β1 expression. C. sylvestris also increased blood vessels and decreased VEGF expression during the studied period in non-diabetic animals. Fibroplasia and collagenase were increased in all experimental periods in the DM-G group by means of de hydroxyproline quantification, collagen I, collagen III and glycosaminoglycans. Conclusions: C. sylvestris application can modulate favorably the time of inflammation and collagenous process in the repair of burn injuries in diabetic rats.展开更多
