No. of bitstreams: 1 CaioRMO_DISSERT.pdf: 4090638 bytes, checksum: b7507f10f52ebe87761d7eafda429ed0 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010-08-20 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / EP24.15 (endopeptidase 24.15, EC.3.4.24.15) also know as thimet-oligopeptidase is a metal dependent peptidase involved in the metabolism of neuropeptides as well as MHC-I peptides and more recently important as regulator of protein/protein interactions. The aim of this work is to verify the tissue and cellular distribution of EP24.15 in the lymphoid tissues (thymus, spleen, lymph nods) by means of immunohistochemistry technique. The analysis revealed that EP24.15 is expressed throughout the studied organs, nevertheless the tissue distribuition showed some areas that contained several labeled cell and others devoid of labeling. The cytoplasmic labeling was more frequent if compared to nuclear one. Macrophage is the cell type more fequently labled. The results suggest that it can be involved in the MHC-I peptide metabolism as well as CTLs differentiation. / EP24.15 (endopeptidase 24.15, EC.3.4.24.15) também conhceida por thimet-oligopeptidase é uma metaloendopeptidase que está envolvida no metabolismo de neuropeptídeos, bem como na apresentação de antígenos via MHC-I e mais recentemente como um importante regulador das interações proteína/proteína. O objetivo do presente trabalho é verificar a distribuição tecidual e celular da EP24.15 nos tecidos linfóides (timo, baço e linfonodo) através da técnica de imunohistoquímica. A análise dos resultados revelou que a EP24.15 foi expressa em todos os órgãos estudados, no entanto a distribuição tecidual mostrou áreas com várias células marcadas e outras sem marcação. A distribuição citoplasmática foi mais frequente que a nucelar. O marcrófago foi o tipo celular mais frequentemente marcado. Os resultados sugerem que a enzima pode estar envolvida no metabolismo de peptídeos via MHC-I bem como na diferenciação de CTLs.

Néphrotoxicité des acides aristolochiques: approches expérimentales de l'atteinte tubulaire proximale

Lebeau, Catherine 24 April 2006 (has links)
Les acides aristolochiques (AA) présents dans les aristoloches sont impliqués dans le développement d’une insuffisance rénale progressive chez l’homme, appelée néphropathie aux plantes chinoises (CHN). Elle se caractérise par une atrophie tubulaire sévère et une fibrose interstitielle associée à une fréquence élevée de cancers urothéliaux. L’observation en clinique d’une protéinurie tubulaire a suggéré que le tubule proximal était la cible des AA. Le but des travaux présentés est d’explorer les premières altérations induites par les AA au niveau de la cellule tubulaire proximale. L’approche in vitro montre que les AA inhibent de manière irréversible la réabsorption d’albumine par les cellules de rein d’opossum (OK). L’altération par les AA du processus d’endocytose médiée par récepteur s’expliquerait en partie par une diminution de l’expression de la mégaline. L’approche in vivo confirme la survenue précoce d’altérations structurelles et fonctionnelles de l’épithélium tubulaire proximal dans le modèle de rat de la néphropathie aux AA. L’évolution de ces atteintes est biphasique : phase aiguë précoce suivie d’une phase chronique conduisant à une atrophie tubulaire majeure et une fibrose interstitielle. De plus, la diminution de l’expression de la mégaline et de la cubiline indique également que les AA interfèrent in vivo avec le mécanisme d’endocytose médiée par récepteur. En conclusion, les résultats in vivo confirment les observations in vitro, selon lesquelles les AA induisent des altérations très précoces des cellules tubulaires proximales. Une meilleure compréhension, à l’aide de ces deux approches, des mécanismes physiopathologiques de l’atteinte tubulaire proximale précoce et de son évolution fournirait des informations clés pour comprendre le développement et la progression des maladies rénales aiguës et/ou chroniques.

Avaliação da resistência de formas mutantes da enzima L-asparaginase a proteases séricas humanas / Evaluation of L-asparaginase mutant forms resistance to human serum proteases.

Pimenta, Marcela Valente 08 August 2018 (has links)
O tratamento para a Leucemia Linfoblástica Aguda LLA utiliza, entre outros fármacos, a enzima L-asparaginase (ASNase) proveniente da bactéria Escherichia coli. Reações imunológicas estão entre os problemas do tratamento com ASNase, e a formação de anticorpos contra essa proteína pode impedir o sucesso no tratamento. Duas cisteíno proteases lisossomais estão relacionadas com a degradação de ASNase nos seres humanos, a Catepsina B (CTSB) e Asparagina Endopeptidase (AEP). Em estudos prévios do nosso grupo obteve-se mutantes de ASNase resistentes a degradação por CTSB e/ou AEP in vitro. Nesse trabalho avaliamos essas mutantes quanto a sua citotoxicidade em linhagens celulares de leucemia e conduzimos estudos in vivo, aplicando as proteoformas de ASNases em camundongos Balb C para avaliar a atividade asparaginase sérica das enzimas ao longo do tempo, bem como obter informações sobre a formação de anticorpos contra essas proteoformas. Nos ensaios de citotoxicidade, duas das proteoformas testadas tiveram efeito citotóxico semelhante a forma selvagem, enquanto uma outra proteoforma tem a citotoxicidade sensivelmente reduzida. Já nos ensaios in vivo, uma proteoforma demonstrou meia vida sérica maior da atividade asparaginásica, e duas proteoformas causaram reduzida formação de anticorpos. Juntos, esses resultados colaboram para a obtenção de uma nova geração de ASNases com melhor biodisponibilidade, e efeitos adversos reduzidos, gerando a possibilidade de menores doses e frequência de aplicações. / The Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) includes the biopharmaceutical L-asparaginase (ASNase) from Escherichia coli. Immunological reactions are among the problems of treatment using ASNase, and the antibodies formation protein may prevent success in treatment. Lysosomal cysteine proteases are related to ASNase degradation, Cathepsin B (CTSB) and Asparagine Endopeptidase (AEP). In previous studies, ASNase mutants resistant to CTSB and / or AEP degradation in vitro were obtained. In this work, mutants were evaluated in cytotoxicity in ALL cell lines and, in vivo studies, applying doses of the wild and mutant ASNases in Balb C mice to evaluate serum asparaginase activity of the enzymes over time, as well as to obtain information on the formation of antibodies against these proteoforms. Regarding to the cytotoxicity, two proteoforms among the tested had similar cytotoxicity than the wild-type. While another proteoform had the cytotoxicity severely reduced. One proteoform have demonstrated greater serum half-life of asparaginase activity, while two other mutants caused reduced antibody formation. Together, these results collaborate to obtain a new generation of ASNases with increased bioavailability and reduced side effects, generating the possibility of lower doses and frequency of applications.
