Objective: In this study, the effects of a green banana pasta diet on the oxidative damage from type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) were investigated. Materials and methods: Formulations containing 25 (F25), 50 (F50), and 75% (F75) of green banana pasta were prepared and included in a 12-week diet of Wistar rats with alloxan-induced type 1 DM. The effects of these formulations in preventing oxidative damage in kidneys and liver homogenates of rats were evaluated using the TBARS assay (lipid peroxidation in liver) and the DNPH assay (protein oxidation in liver and kidneys). Furthermore, the effects of the formulations on the fasting glycemia, fructosamine levels, renal function (creatinine), liver function (enzymes aspartate aminotransferase [AST] and alanine aminotransferase [ALT]), and lipid profile (total cholesterol and fractions) in the serum of rats were evaluated in addition to the evaluation of the centesimal composition and microbiological analysis of the produced green banana pasta. Results: An F75 diet prevented hyperglycemia in diabetic rats (p < 0.05) compared to the diabetic rats fed a standard diet (commercial feed). Notably, the protein oxidation in both the liver and kidneys were prevented in diabetic rats on the F50 or F75 diets compared to the control group, whereas the lipid peroxidation was only prevented in the liver (p < 0.05). Moreover, all formulations prevented an increase in the amount of triglycerides in the serum of the rats. The F25 and F50 diet prevented the increase of cholesterol, and the F75-based diet of ALT and fructosamine (p < 0.05) supported the anti-hyperglycemic effects and the protection against oxidative damage. Conclusion: The green banana pasta (F75) diet showed great potential for preventing complications associated with diabetes. Arch Endocrinol Metab. 2016;60(4):355-66
Neste trabalho, objetiva-se descrever e discutir a respeito da prática de leitura e produção de histórias em quadrinhos (HQs) em uma turma de nono ano do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública em Três Lagoas-MS. Esta proposta foi realizada por meio do Programa Institucional de Bolsa de Iniciação à Docência (PIBID) e se situa no campo teórico e metodológico da Linguística Aplicada, mais precisamente na visão dos multiletramentos com base em CARDOSO (2005), DOLZ et al. (2004), CORDEIRO (2004), FIELD (2001), GERALDI (2010), MENEZES DE SOUZA (2011), ROJO (2012) e SILVA (1987). Os procedimentos metodológicos centram-se na pesquisa-ação a fim de investigar sua própria prática de forma reflexiva e cooperativa. O corpus consiste nas atividades realizadas em sala e em dados das discussões que antecederam a utilização de textos. Como resultado, foram produzidas pelos alunos HQs, as quais revelam as preocupações das suas realidades locais, assim como a influência exercida pela realidade global. Dessa forma, percebeu-se que a elaboração das HQs possibilitou momentos de aprendizagem que foram explorados a partir da multimodalidade e da multiculturalidade desse suporte textual.
