The objective is to investigate the main intracellular pathways activated after exposure to ozone, considering the dosage of antioxidant enzymes and markers of oxidative stress. (2) Methods: This systematic review was performed based on the PRISMA guidelines and using a structured search in MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus, and Web of Science. Bias analysis and methodological quality assessments were examined using the SYRCLE Risk of Bias tool. (3) Results: Nineteen studies were selected. The results showed that the exposure to ozone has a protective effect on liver tissue, promoting a decrease in inflammatory markers and a reduction in oxidative stress in liver tissue. In addition, ozone exposure also promoted an increase in antioxidant enzymes. The morphological consequences of controlling these intracellular pathways were reducing the tissue inflammatory process and reducing areas of degeneration and necrosis. (4) Conclusions: Ozone exposure has a beneficial effect on models of liver injury through the decrease in oxidative stress in tissue and inflammatory markers. In addition, it regulates the Nrf2/ARE antioxidant pathway and blocks the NF-κB inflammatory pathway.}, number={2}, journal={ANTIOXIDANTS}, author={Pelinsari, Silvania Mol and Sarandy, Mariaurea Matias and Vilela, Emerson Ferreira and Novaes, Romulo Dias and Schlamb, Jade and Goncalves, Reggiani Vilela}, year={2024}, month={Feb} } @article{dantas araujo_xavier-santos_silva_lima_schlamb_fernandes-pedrosa_silva junior_araujo junior_rathinasabapathy_moncada_et al._2023, title={Gel formulated with Bryophyllum pinnatum leaf extract promotes skin wound healing in vivo by increasing VEGF expression: A novel potential active ingredient for pharmaceuticals}, volume={13}, ISSN={["1663-9812"]}, DOI={10.3389/fphar.2022.1104705}, abstractNote={Bryophyllumpinnatum(Crassulaceae) is used in traditional medicine for treating skin wounds. In our previous study, a topical gel containingB. pinnatumaqueous leaf extract showed a preclinical anti-inflammatory effect inin vivoacute edema models. In continuation, the present study aims to evaluate the phytochemical content and the stability of a formulation in gel containingB. pinnatumaqueous leaf extract and its healing properties and mechanism of action through an experimental model of induction of skin wounds in rats andin vitroassays. The animals were treated topically for 7 or 14 days with a formulation in gel containing extract at 5% or a placebo or Fibrinase®in cream. In addition, to establish some quality control parameters, the total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and a study focusing on the phytochemical and biological stability of a gel for 30 days at two different conditions (room temperature and 40°C/75% RH) were performed. Gel formulation containing extract showed a TPC and TFC of 2.77 ± 0.06 mg of gallic acid/g and 1.58 ± 0.03 mg of quercetin/g, respectively. Regarding the stability study, the formulation in gel showed no significant change in the following parameters: pH, water activity, chromatographic profile, and the content of the major compound identified in the extract. The gel formulation containing extract stimulated skin wound healing while reducing the wound area, as well as decreasing the inflammatory infiltrate, reducing the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α, and stimulating angiogenesis with increased expression of VEGF, an effect similar to Fibrinase. In conclusion, the gel formulation containing extract exhibited relevant skin wound healing properties and, therefore, has the potential to be applied as a novel active ingredient for developing wound healing pharmaceuticals.}, journal={FRONTIERS IN PHARMACOLOGY}, author={Dantas Araujo, Edilane Rodrigues and Xavier-Santos, Jacinthia Beatriz and Silva, Valeria Costa and Lima, Juliana Bessa and Schlamb, Jade and Fernandes-Pedrosa, Matheus de Freitas and Silva Junior, Arnobio Antonio and Araujo Junior, Raimundo Fernandes and Rathinasabapathy, Thirumurugan and Moncada, Marvin and et al.}, year={2023}, month={Jan} } @article{silva_guerra_araujo_schlamb_silva_tavares_dantas-medeiros_abreu_tavares_araujo junior_et al._2023, title={Phenolic-rich extract of Nopalea cochenillifera attenuates gastric lesions induced in experimental models through inhibiting oxidative stress, modulating inflammatory markers and a cytoprotective effect}, volume={2}, ISSN={["2042-650X"]}, DOI={10.1039/d2fo03735a}, abstractNote={ Nopalea cochenillifera (Cactaceae), popularly known as “palma” or “palma doce”, is from Mexico, but it was widely introduced in Brazil through crops.}, journal={FOOD & FUNCTION}, author={Silva, Elaine Cristine Souza and Guerra, Gerlane Coelho Bernardo and Araujo, Edilane Rodrigues Dantas and Schlamb, Jade and Silva, Valeria Costa and Tavares, Emanuella de Aragao and Dantas-Medeiros, Renato and Abreu, Lucas Silva and Tavares, Josean Fechine and Araujo Junior, Raimundo Fernandes and et al.}, year={2023}, month={Feb} }
