Avaliação da imunidade humoral em ratos submetidos à radiação eletromagnética não ionizante / Humoral immunity in rats subjected to non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation

The objective of this study was to verify using immunoglobulin dosimetry for IgA, IgG, IgM the possible alterations on the immune system of rats submitted to the non ionizing radiation used by cellular telephony...

Inhibition of sodium intestinal transport and mucosal (Na+-K+)-ATPase in experimental Fanconi syndrome.

The administration of 1.5 or 9.0 mmoles/kg ip of maleate to rats induced, in addition to renal alterations similar to those occurring in the Fanconi syndrome, a decline in the intestinal mucosa (Na+-K+)-ATPase with a simultaneous decrease in sodium intestinal transport and an increase in potassium absorption. Further differences in the behavior of the two electrolytes were observed when the concentration of sodium in the perfusates was altered. No changes occurred in amino acid or glucose transport in experimental animals.
