Short-term effects of green tea chronotherapy on the metabolic homeostasis of mice on different diets

Biological rhythms can be defined as changes in physiological or behavioral variables that repeat at certain time intervals. Rhythms that last approximately 24 h are referred to as circadian rhythms. Modern lifestyles have drastically affected human habits, as well as the population’s eating habits. These changes have generated an epidemic of metabolic syndrom.. Read More»

Expression of acid phosphatase in the seminiferous epithelium of vertebrates

    R.L. Peruquetti, S.R. Taboga and M.T.V. Azeredo-Oliveira

Acid phosphatases (AcPs) are known to provide phosphate to tissues that have high energy requirements, especially during development, growth and maturation. During spermatogenesis AcP activity is manifested in heterophagous lysosomes of Sertoli cells. This phagocytic function appears to be hormone-independent. We examined the expression pattern of AcP during the rep.. Read More»

Microdissection testicular sperm extraction causes spermatogenic alterations in the contralateral testis

    A.B. Oliveira Filho, R.S. Souza, M.T.V. Azeredo-Oliveira, R.L. Peruquetti and A.P. Cedenho

Testicular sperm extraction (TESE) associated with intracytoplasmic sperm injection has allowed many men presenting non-obstructive azoospermia to achieve fatherhood. Microdissection TESE (microTESE) was proposed as a method to improve sperm retrieval rates in these patients; however, there have been failures. Little is known about whether microTESE leads to spermat.. Read More»
