Efeito do hormônio tireoideano sobre a expressão gênica do transportador de creatina (SLC6A8: CreaT) na musculatura esquelética e cardíaca de ratos. / Effect of thyroid hormone upon creatine transporter (CreaT: SLC6A8) gene expression in skeletal and cardiac muscles in rats.

A creatina (Cr) é uma reserva de fosfato de alta energia, sendo a fonte mais rápida de restauração do ATP intracelular. O hormônios tireoideano participa de forma importante na manutenção da taxa metabólica, aumentando a síntese e consumo de ATP, por meio da regulação de diferentes genes-alvo. Neste sentido, avaliamos o efeitos do HT sobre a expressão gênica do transportador de Cr nos músculos esqueléticos e cardíaco de ratos. O tratamento com o hormônio regula estes processos, porém de forma distinta nos diferentes tipos de músculos. / Creatine (Cr) is a high-energy phosphate reservoir and the fastest source for intracellular ATP regeneration. The thyroid hormone plays a key role on the maintenance of basal metabolic rate, increasing the synthesis and the degradation of ATP through regulation of target-genes. In this study, we explore the effects of thyroid hormone on Cr transporter gene expression and regulation of intracellular pool of Cr in skeletal and cardiac muscles in rats. The hormone can regulate these processes in distinct ways in different muscle types.

Optimisation pharmacologique des dérivés de la créatine pour le traitement du déficit en transporteur de la créatine / Chemical optimization of creatine derivatives for the treatment of creatine transporter deficiency

Trotier-Faurion, Alexandra 29 March 2013 (has links)
Le déficit en transporteur de la créatine est une maladie rare neurologique dans laquelle la perte de fonctionnalité du transporteur de la créatine (SLC6A8) conduit à une absence de créatine au niveau cérébral et à des retards de développement majeurs chez les enfants. A l’heure actuelle, aucune thérapie efficace n’est disponible.Une approche thérapeutique potentielle est le développement de molécules prodrogues de la créatine plus lipophiles qui franchiront les membranes cellulaires de façon passive et la recherche d’une formulation galénique susceptible d’emmener la prodrogue vers les cellules cibles d’intérêt, les neurones. Ainsi, dans cette thèse, nous proposons une nouvelle voie de synthèse originale d’esters de la créatine à longue chaîne aliphatique. Ces composés présentent des propriétés pharmacologiques intéressantes : nous montrons qu’il existe une relation de structure-activité entre la taille de la chaîne aliphatique (et donc la lipophilie) et la capacité de la molécule à être internalisée dans les cellules endothéliales cérébrales, astrocytaires et neuronales, constituant l’unité neurovasculaire. Il ressort de nos observations expérimentales que l’ester dodécylique de créatine est le meilleur candidat médicament. De plus, après avoir été internalisé dans les fibroblastes des patients présentant un déficit fonctionnel du transporteur de la créatine, l’ester dodécylique subit une conversion par les estérases cellulaires, libérant ainsi la créatine dans le compartiment intracellulaire.La formulation galénique permettant de protéger ces esters de créatine jusqu’au cerveau repose, elle, sur la nanovectorisation, par encapsulation de l’ester dodécylique de créatine dans des NanoCapsules Lipidiques. L’avantage de cette formulation est de permettre également un ciblage actif vers la Barrière Hémato-Encéphalique, obstacle majeur dans le développement de thérapies ciblant le Système Nerveux Central. Nos observations expérimentales mettent en exergue cette double stratégie thérapeutique pour le traitement du déficit en transporteur de la créatine.Ce travail a été soutenu financièrement par la Fondation Lejeune. / Creatine transporter deficiency is a rare brain disease associated with the loss of function of the SLC6A8 (creatine transporter) leading to an absence of creatine at the cerebral level and to a dramatic neurodevelopmental retardation in the children. To date, no effective therapy is available.A potential therapeutic option would be the design of a pharmaceutical formulation of lipophilic prodrugs of creatine that will cross the cell membranes passively and target the neurons in order to restore the creatine content inside these cells.One of the main purposes of this dissertation is to propose an original chemistry synthesis process of creatine esters with long aliphatic chain. These compounds show interesting pharmacological properties of structure-activity relationship between the length of the aliphatic chain (i.e. lipophilicity) and the ability for the drug to enter cerebral endothelial, astroglial and neuronal cells. According to our experimental observations, the dodecyl ester creatine seems to be the best drug candidate. Moreover, the dodecyl ester is acted on by cellular esterases inside patients’ fibroblasts with a functional deficit of the SLC6A8 and increases the intracellular creatine content.The pharmaceutical formulation developed in this study consists by incorporation of dodecyl ester inside a nanovector (Lipid NanoCapsules). Two main advantages can be gained by nanovectorization: firstly, the dodecyl ester is protected from the degradation by plasmatic esterases before reaching the brain. Secondly, the nanovectorization strategy is highly valuable to brain targeting bypassing the blood-brain barrier, which remains until now a major impediment in the drug design for the Central Nervous System. Our experimental observations highlight this two-step therapeutic strategy for the treatment of deficiency of the creatine transporter.This work was financially supported by the International PhD Program of the Life Sciences division of the CEA and the Fondation Jérôme Lejeune.
