- Preliminary results of an animal model validation of chronic experimental colitisPublication . Silva, Inês; Pinto, Rui; Mateus, VanessaInflammatory bowel disease (IBD): chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract characterized by recurrent ulceration. IBD prevalence exceeding 0,5% of the population in westernized countries. IBD manifests into several intestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms, mainly related to inflammation. IBD includes Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative colitis. Aim of the study: evaluate the efficacy of new drugs in IBD through an animal model of TNBS-induced chronic colitis.
- New pharmacological approach for inflammatory bowel diseasePublication . Silva, Inês; Pinto, Rui; Mateus, VanessaInflammatory bowel disease includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is characterized by recurrent ulceration. IBD affects 7–10% of people worldwide, mainly of Caucasian descent. It manifests into several intestinal and extra-intestinal symptoms, mainly related to oxidative stress, inflammation, and autoimmune reaction. Aim of the study: evaluate the influence of a new pharmacological approach with erythropoietin in the establishment and development of inflammation associated with IBD, through of an experimental colitis model in rodents.
- TNBS-induced colitis in rodents: preliminary results of a chronic modelPublication . Silva, Inês; Solas, João; Sousa, Mariana; Modesto, Rita; Mateus, Vanessa; Pinto, RuiChronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract characterized by recurrent ulceration. Treatment of inflammatory bowel disease induce and maintain the patient in remission However do not modify or reverse the underlying pathogenic mechanism. Nonclinical studies for emerging therapeutic strategies. Aim of the study: Evaluate the efficacy of new drugs in inflammatory bowel disease through an animal model of TNBS-induced chronic colitis.
