Adipose tissue plays an important role in chronic inflammation and the presence of bioactive compounds in food has been widely discussed as a means of prevention and treatment of various pathological conditions. The aim of this review is to promote an overview and elucidate pathways involved in the chronic inflammatory process triggered by adipose tissue hypertrophy and to discuss data related to the use of Acai in the modulation of inflammation. Initially, a narrative review was carried out on metabolic and molecular pathways involved in the process of subclinical chronic inflammation (NF-κB, AP-1, cross-talk between macrophages and adipocytes, increased LPS and Nrf2 pathway). Then, an integrative review was carried out on the effect of Acai in processes of chronic subclinical inflammation in humans. The database consulted was PubMed, in which the name of the fruit was crossed with the descriptors "inflammation" and "chronic diseases", prioritizing in vivo and in vitro studies related to the human species, carried out in the last ten years. It was observed that the immunomodulatory effects of Acai are increasingly clear, however, are not enough to classify the fruit as a tool in the treatment and prevention of metabolic diseases. To make possible more comprehensive inferences, it is necessary that future studies include assessment of the bioavailability of the bioactive compounds present, in addition to being performed using more suitable methods, with humans, containing sample size calculation, control group and placebo.
RESUMO: Este estudo apresenta uma imersão cultural da Festa Transa! -Música Brasileira; o ponto de partida para a pesquisa foi a busca pelo entendimento das relações estabelecidas entre os espaços de lazer e os sujeitos que os compõem. A análise a partir de uma etnografia foi realizada para que fosse possível estabelecer um "olhar de perto e de dentro"; para aprofundar e dialogar com os/as autores/as, foi realizada uma pesquisa com os organizadores da Festa Transa! -Música Brasileira e com 25 participantes que se disponibilizaram em responder os questionários por meio da plataforma Google Forms. A pesquisa possibilitou entender o contexto do surgimento da Festa, como se constituem e como pensam os sujeitos do "pedaço" e aprofundar acerca das representações da Transa! -Música Brasileira enquanto tempo e espaço de lazer. PALAVRAS-CHAVE:Atividades de Lazer. Festa. Cultura. Pedaço. TRANSA!: LEISURE AND PARTY OF BRAZILIAN MUSICABSTRACT: This study presents a cultural immersion of the Transa! -Música Brasileira; the starting point for the research was the search for understanding the established relations between leisure spaces and the subjects that compose them. The analysis from an ethnography was performed so that it was possible to establish a "close and inside look"; in order to deepen and dialogue with the authors, a survey was carried out with the organizers of the Transa! -Música Brasileira and with 25 participants who volunteered to answer the questionnaires through the Google Forms platform. The research made it possible to understand the emergence of the party, how the subjects of the "turf" constitute and think and to deepen about the representations of the Transa! -Música Brasileira as time and leisure space.
