Abstract
BackgroundWe recently reported an attenuate immunogenicity in patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases. However, the effect of spondyloarthritis (SpA) and its treatment on COVID-19 vaccine immunogenicity remains to be determined for this group of patients. We therefore aimed to evaluate humoral immune responses to inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (CoronaVac) in patients with SpA (axial spondyloarthritis and psoriatic arthritis) taking DMARDs and commonly used targeted biological therapies, compared with a control group(CG).ObjectivesEvaluate immunogenicity and safety of CORONAVAC (Sninovac, Beijing) in Spondyloarthritis (SpA) patients.MethodsProspective observational cohort patients diagnosed with 194 SpA and 183 CG were vaccinated with CoronaVac in two doses with a 28-days interval. 194 patients completed the study and could be paired with CG for immunogenicity analysis. Blood samples were collected in the days 0, 28 and 69 (D69) to evaluate anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG seroconversion(SC) and presence of neutralizing antibodies (NAb) in participants with negative IgG and NAb at baseline.ResultsPatients and GC were comparable regarding age (p=0.93) and sex (p=1.00). Immunogenicity at D69 showed a moderate/high SC (80.2% vs. 95.7%, p<0.0001) and Nab positivity (61.6% vs. 82.7%, p<0.0001) in SpA but lower than CG. Factors associated with lower immunogenicity were older age (56.8 vs. 51.4;p=0.03318) and higher frequencies of prednisone (25.7% vs 4.2%; p=0.0004), methotrexate (51.4% vs 40.1%, p=0.0016) and TNF inhibitor (TNFi) (62.9% vs 34.5%, p=0.0035). Likewise, prednisone (17.6% vs. 2.8%, p=0.0013) and TNFi (50% vs 33.9%; p=0.0408) were associated with diminished NAb positivity. Sulfasalazine was associated with higher SC rates (8.6% vs. 26.8%, p=0.0246) and NAb positivity (13.2% vs. 29.4%, p=0.0168). The multivariate analysis revealed that older age (p=0.037), prednisone (p=0.001), TNFi (p=0.016), and methotrexate(p=0.017) were independently associated with lower SC while prednisone (p=0.006) and TNFi (p=0.027) were also associated with reduced NAb response.ConclusionOur finding of an excellent safety and moderate/high SC rate in SpA supports the recommendation of CoronaVac vaccination. The impaired immune response in the minority of patients under immunosuppressive and biological therapy requires novel strategies to enhance antibody response in this subgroup of patients.References[1]Weaver A, Troum O, Hooper M, Koenig AS, Chaudhari S, Feng J, et al.

Abstract
Background:Abatacept (ABA) can induce decrease in gamma-globulins, but the long-term safety of such reduction is unknown. Moreover, it is suggested that such decrease is dissociated from disease activity response.Objectives:To evaluate ABA-induced gamma-globulins reduction and its correlation with disease activity control and the risk of infection in rheumatoid arthritis(RA) patients.Methods:This is a retrospective inception cohort of RA patients undergoing ABA for the first time in a large single tertiary cohort (2007 to 2019). Patients were evaluated regarding clinical and inflammatory data, total and specific (IgG, IgM, IgA) gamma-globulins assessed before, at 3 and 6 months, and then every 6 months up to discontinuation/censoring. The occurrence of severe or recurrent infections as cause of discontinuation of treatment was recorded. All patients were submitted to a systematic infectious screening protocol before and during treatment.Results:One hundred seventy-nine RA patients were included. They were predominantly female (93%;n=167) and had a positive rheumatoid factor (RF, 84%; n=151). Median(range) age and disease duration were 55.1(17-81.3) and 14(1.6-39.8) years, respectively. ABA was used in median as the 3rd(1-8) bDMARD. Most patients (74.3%, n=134) had already used a TNFi previously and 34.1% (n=61) had failed to rituximab. Baseline DAS28 [median(range)] was 4.9 (2-8.62), CDAI 27(5-66), HAQ 1.5 (0-3), ESR 18(2-111), and CRP 8.1(0.1 -135.7). Levels of total gamma-globulins(TGG) were 1.2 (0.5-2.8g/dL), IgG 1,094(422-2,785mg/dL), IgM104(19-405 mg/dL), and IgA 324 (100-739mg/dL). Forty-five patients (25.1%) had low IgG before ABA, but only 8(4.5%) had IgG<600mg/dL and low TGG. At 3 months, remarkable decreases were observed in total gamma-globulin(1.2vs.1.1g/dL), IgG(1,094vs.992mg/dL), IgM(104vs.93mg/dL), and IgA(324vs.302mg/dL), in comparison to baseline(p<0.05). Longitudinal measurements demonstrated that levels of gamma-globulins remained stable for subsequent evaluations(p>0.05). At baseline, TGG, IgG, IgM and IgA correlated positively to all disease activity parameters: DAS28(r=+0.33; r=+0.31;r=+0.24 and r=+0.37, respectively; p<0.02 for all), SDAI (r=+0.35; r=+0.37; r=+0.43; r=+0.34, respectively; p<0.04 for all), CDAI (r=+0.32; r=+0.29; r=+0.39; r=+0.31, respectively; p<0.03 for all, except IgA), swollen joints (r=+0.24; r=+0.23; p<0.01 only for TGG and IgG, respectively); tender joints (r=+0.18; r=+0.21; p<0.04 only for IgG and IgM respectively), ESR (r=+0.35; r=+0.24; r=+0.41; p<0.02 for TGG, IgG and IgA, respectively) and CRP (r=+0.20; r=+0.16; r=+0.27; p<0.05 for TGG, IgG and IgA, respectively). Longitudinally, most of these correlations were lost(p>0.05). Moreover, at 6 months, 25 patients (14%) achieved DAS28 ≤ 2.6 and 49 (27.4%) had low disease activity (DAS28 ≤ 3.2). Baseline or longitudinal measures of TTG and subtypes were similar among patients who responded and those who did not, regardless of the cut-off used(p>0.05. Only 14 patients (9.4%) had the medication discontinued due to infections: 3 due to recurrent infections and 11 to severe infections. One patient died. The frequencies of low IgG (under the normal limit of normality) at baseline and all time points(p>0.05) were similar among patients with and without severe/recurrent infections. None of these patients had low TGG or very low IgG(<600mg/dL) at baseline or during treatment and the levels of TGG and all subtypes were comparable at all time points (p>0.05).Conclusion:This cohort of real-world RA patients shows that reduction in gamma-globulin levels induced by ABA is safe, non-progressive and not associated to a higher risk of infection, even in patients with low IgG or TGG. Additionally, it is not associated to clinical response.Disclosure of Interests: None declared

Abstract
This study evaluated the nutritional profile and volatile compounds present in a novel prebiotic (inulin) soursop whey beverage, due to the effects of high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS). The prebiotic soursop whey beverage was produced and processed by non-thermal high-intensity ultrasound varying the power (0, 200, 400 and 600 W) and by high-temperature short time (72 °C for 15 s) thermal treatment. Total acidity, pH, ascorbic acid content, total phenolics compounds content, antioxidant activity, hypertensive activity, fatty acid profile, volatile organic compounds, macro and micro minerals, as well as the heavy metals in these products, were analyzed. Overall, the HIUS technology induced some positive changes in the nutritional profile of the soursop whey beverage including beneficial effects, e.g., increase of phenolic content, improvement of the antioxidant and anti-hypertensive activity and reduction of undesired minerals. Although some negative changes, such as degradation of the ascorbic acid, decrease of some minerals and production of certain volatile compounds were found, the beneficial effects were prominent, thus, opening new opportunities to develop healthy functional beverages.

Abstract
Recently, our laboratory has identified that supplementation of 3 cytokines, 40ng mL−1 FGF2, 20ng mL−1 LIF, and 20ng mL−1 IGF1 (termed FLI), to porcine oocyte maturation medium leads to an increase in maturation percentage and embryo development to blastocyst. Similarly, addition of FLI to porcine embryo culture at Day 2 after fertilization increased the number of embryos that became blastocyst. The objective of this study was to determine whether the effect of FLI on embryonic development was maintained in the bovine. Two variations of the bovine culture medium, basic SOF and SOF-BE2 (containing 0.4mM trisodium citrate and 2.56mM myo-inositol), were supplemented with FLI at the beginning of culture, and development to the blastocyst stage on Day 8 was determined. Embryos were produced from abattoir-derived oocytes from Bos taurus breeds and fertilized with sperm from a single Holstein bull proven of high fertility under in vitro conditions. All statistical analyses were completed by logistic regression using the Genmod procedure of SAS v. 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA). In the first experiment, zygotes (oocytes exposed to sperm) were placed in culture in basic SOF with or without supplementation with FLI. After 4 replicates containing 90 control embryos and 93 FLI-treated embryos we found an increase (P<0.05) in blastocyst percentages of 21.1±0.2% for the control compared with 40.9±0.2% for the FLI-treated embryos. In a second experiment, zygotes were cultured in SOF-BE2 with or without supplementation with FLI. A total of 679 zygotes (332 control and 347 FLI-treated zygotes) across 4 replicates were evaluated. Percentage of embryos developing to the blastocyst stage increased (P<0.05) from 33.2±0.07% in the control group to 42.6±0.07% in the FLI-supplemented group. Next, blastocysts derived from the second experiment were vitrified for subsequent transfer to synchronized Angus recipient heifers. Re-expansion 16h after thawing was recorded before transfer. For the control group, 10 out of 24 embryos (41.7%), and 28 out of 41 embryos (68.3%) of the FLI-treated embryos, re-expanded. Three re-expanded blastocysts were then nonsurgically transferred to the uterine horn of each synchronized heifer (N=3 control embryo containing heifers, 9 FLI embryo containing heifers). The number of viable fetuses (presence of a heartbeat) per heifer will be determined via ultrasound around Day 35. Although more vitrification and transfer experiments are being completed, preliminary data suggest that supplementation of FLI during culture might improve of the embryos to freezing. Furthermore, supplementation of FLI improves development to the blastocyst stage in bovine embryos under different conditions.

Abstract
The present study aimed to compare the physicochemical (pH), physical (rheology parameters and particle size), microstructure (optical microscopy) and thermal properties (differential scanning calorimetry) of guava flavored whey-beverages submitted to cold plama technology in different processing time (5, 10, and 15 min) and gas flow (10, 20, and 30 mL min-1) conditions with a conventional pasteurized product. Whey beverages treated by cold plasma presented higher pH values, lower consistency and lower viscosity, and a flow behavior index similar to Newtonian fluids. Milder cold plasma conditions resulted in whey beverages with higher pH, lower viscosity and consistency, and similar particle distribution and microstructure compared to the pasteurized product. In contrast, more severe processing conditions resulted in a higher particle surface area ([D 3,2]) and smaller particles (~10 μM), due to the decrease in the number of larger particles (1000 μM), cell rupture, the formation of cell fragments, and higher viscosity and consistency. The treatments did not affect the thermal properties (enthalpy and bound water) of any sample.

Abstract
Polyphosphates have been found in all cell types examined to date and play diverse roles depending on the cell type. In eukaryotic organisms, polyphosphates have been investigated mainly in mammalian cells, and only a few studies have addressed arthropods. Pyrophosphatases have been shown to regulate polyphosphate metabolism. However, these studies were restricted to trypanosomatids. Here we focus on the tick Rhipicephalus microplus, a haematophagous ectoparasite that is highly harmful to cattle. We produced a recombinant R. microplus pyrophosphatase (rRmPPase) with the aim of investigating its kinetic parameters using polyphosphates as substrate. Molecular docking assays of RmPPase with polyphosphates were also carried out. The kinetic and Hill coefficient parameters indicated that rRmPPase has a greater affinity, higher catalytic efficiency and increased cooperativity for sodium phosphate glass type 15 (polyP15 ) than for sodium tripolyphosphate (polyP3 ). Through molecular docking, we found that polyP3 binds close to the Mg2+ atoms in the catalytic region of the protein, participating in their coordination network, whereas polyP15 interactions involve negatively charged phosphate groups and basic amino acid residues, such as Lys56, Arg58 and Lys193; polyP15 has a more favourable theoretical binding affinity than polyP3 , thus supporting the kinetic data. This study shows, for the first time in arthropods, a pyrophosphatase with polyphosphatase activity, suggesting its participation in polyphosphate metabolism.

Abstract
This study presents the emerging high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) processing as a non-thermal alternative to high-temperature short-time pasteurization (HTST). Chocolate milk beverage (CMB) was subjected to different ultrasound energy densities (0.3-3.0 kJ/cm3), as compared to HTST pasteurization (72 °C/15 s) aimed to verify the effect of the HIUS processing on the microbiological and physicochemical characteristics of the beverage. The application of HIUS at an energy density of 3.0 kJ/cm3 was able to reduce 3.56 ± 0.02 logarithmic cycles in the total aerobic counts. In addition, the ultrasound energy density affected the physical properties of the beverage as the size distribution of fat globule and rheological behavior, as well as the chemical properties such as antioxidant activity, ACE inhibitory activity, fatty acid profile, and volatile profile. In general, the different energetic densities used as a non-thermal method of pasteurization of CMB were more effective when compared to the conventional pasteurization by HTST, since they improved the microbiological and physicochemical quality, besides preserving the bioactive compounds and the nutritional quality of the product.

Abstract
The effects of the concentration of watermelon juice at different temperatures (45, 55, or 65 °C) on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics, antioxidant capacity, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of whey-based popsicles were investigated. Total phenolic content, lycopene, citrulline, VOCs, melting rate, instrumental colour, antioxidant capacity, and the sensory characteristics (hedonic test and free listing) were determined. The temperature led to a significant decrease in bioactive compounds (total phenolics, lycopene, and citrulline). The popsicle manufactured with reconstituted watermelon juice concentrated to 60 °Brix at 65 °C presented higher antioxidant capacity and was characterized by the presence of alcohols, aldehydes and ketones and presented a similar acceptance to the untreated popsicle (except for flavour). It is possible to combine whey and concentrated watermelon juice for the manufacture of bioactive-rich popsicles, using the concentration temperature of 65 °C as a suitable processing condition for potential industrial applications.

Abstract
The effect of supercritical carbon dioxide technology (SCCD, 14, 16, and 18MPa at 35±2°C for 10min) on whey-grape juice drink characteristics was investigated. Physicochemical characterization (pH, titratable acidity, total soluble solids), bioactive compounds (phenolic compounds, anthocyanin, DPPH and ACE activity) and the volatile compounds were performed. Absence of differences were found among treatments for pH, titratable acidity, soluble solids, total anthocyanin and DPPH activity (p-value>0.05). A direct relationship between SCCD pressure and ACE inhibitory activity was observed, with 34.63, 38.75, and 44.31% (14, 16, and 18MPa, respectively). Regards the volatile compounds, it was noted few differences except by the presence of ketones. The findings confirm the SCCD processing as a potential promising technology to the conventional thermal treatment.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to assess the effects of different prebiotic dietary oligosaccharides (inulin, fructo-oligosaccharide, galacto-oligossacaride, short-chain fructo-oligosaccharide, resistant starch, corn dietary oligosaccharide and polydextrose) in non-fat sheep milk ice cream processing through physical parameters, water mobility and thermal analysis. Overall, the fat replacement by dietary prebiotic oligosaccharides significantly decreased the melting time, melting temperature and the fraction and relaxation time for fat and bound water (T22) while increased the white intensity and glass transition temperature. The replacement of sheep milk fat by prebiotics in sheep milk ice cream constitutes an interesting option to enhance nutritional aspects and develop a functional food.

Abstract
AIM The objective of this study was to compare integration of AlloDerm® acellular dermal grafts in animals subjected to non-ablative laser irradiation and animals not exposed to this therapy. METHODS Standardized AlloDerm® fragments measuring 5 mm² were grafted into the subcutaneous tissue overlying the calvaria in 32 Wistar rats. Laser therapy (685 ηm), at a dose of 4 J/cm2 per session, was applied immediately after surgical intervention and every 48 hours thereafter for a total of four applications. RESULTS Analysis of histology slides revealed significantly greater edema in the control group. There was no neutrophil infiltration in the laser-irradiated group at any point during the study period, whereas such infiltration was present in control animals at three of the four points of observation. In the laser therapy group, lymphocyte infiltration was observed from day 1, whereas in the control group, it was only apparent from day 3. Vascularization was substantially greater in the control group. In the experimental group, the AlloDerm® graft was completely replaced by fibrous tissue. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that add-on non-ablative laser therapy is an effective stimulator of healing and graft integration after placement of AlloDerm® acellular dermal grafts.

Abstract
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are enzymes that act in excretion of physiologic and xenobiotic substances, protecting cells against chemical toxicity and stress. In this work, we characterized the enzymatic activity of GST in eggs and larvae of cattle tick Boophilus microplus, on different days after oviposition and eclosion. The results showed that the GST activity varied depending on the time elapsed after oviposition and eclosion. Molecules involved in mechanism of protection from oxidative stress are correlated with the increase in GST activity. The oxygen consumption kinetics showed a positive correlation with the increase in GST activity during embryogenesis. A high content of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were observed in egg and larva extracts, indicating that ticks face high oxidative stress during embryogenesis and aging. In eggs and larvae, GST activity can be correlated to kinetic parameters of oxidative stress such as catalase and glutathione. In addition, GST activity showed strong positive correlation with lipid peroxidation, an indication that it plays a role in oxidant defences in eggs.

Abstract
We have previously shown (, Curr. Biol. 9, 703-706) that the cattle tick Boophilus microplus does not synthesize heme, relying solely on the recovery of the heme from the diet to make all its hemeproteins. Here we present evidence that Vitellin (VN(1)), the main tick yolk protein, is a reservoir of heme for embryo development. VN was isolated from eggs at different days throughout embryogenesis. Immediately after oviposition, Boophilus VN contains approximately one mol of heme/mol of protein. During embryo development about one third of egg VN is degraded. The remaining VN molecules bind part of the heme released. These results suggest that VN functions as a heme reservoir, binding any free heme that exceeds the amount needed for development. In vitro measurement of the binding of heme to VN showed that each VN molecule binds up to 31 heme molecules. The association of heme with VN strongly inhibits heme-induced lipid peroxidation, suggesting that binding of heme is an important antioxidant mechanism to protect embryo cells from oxidative damage. This mechanism allows this hematophagous arthropod to safely store heme obtained from a blood meal inside their eggs for future use. Taken together our data suggest that, besides its known roles, VN also plays additional functions as a heme deposit and an antioxidant protective molecule.

Abstract
Outbreaks of Anagallis arvensis poisoning were observed from 1994 to 1998 in cattle and sheep in Uruguay during December and January. Cattle morbidity varied between 3.2 and 53.2% and lethality 42.6 and 100%. Sheep morbidity was 2.8 to 42.9% and lethality 81.3 to 100%. Nine outbreaks occurred on barley and wheat stubble, and 1 in a field previousy ploughed but not cultivated. Clinical signs were weakness, staggers, diarrhea (sometimes bloody), coma, and death. Serum levels of creatinine and urea were elevated. Gross lesions were characterized by sc petechiae, fluid in body cavities, mesenteric and perirenal edema, yellowish or pale kidneys with petechiae on the cortex, esophageal erosive lesions or ulcers, and hemorrhagic abomasitis and enteritis. Severe nephrosis was observed histologically. The green plant collected in a field where an outbreak occurred was administered to 2 sheep at doses of 160 and 224 g/kg bw and produced clinical signs and pathology similar to those observed in field cases.
