Efeitos diferenciais do sulfeto de hidrogênio exógeno e endógeno na sinovite experimental induzida por carragenina em ratos Wistar. / Differential effects of hydrogen sulphide exogenous and endogenous in experimental synovitis induced by carrageenan in Wistar rats.

Valentim, Eduardo Ekundi 09 December 2010 (has links)
Este estudo se propôs a avaliar o efeito do gás sulfídrico (H2S), produzido endogenamente em mamíferos, na sinovite induzida pela injeção intra-articular de carragenina (CGN) no joelho de ratos Wistar (250 g). Ratos foram tratados (-60 min) com indometacina, o inibidor da cistationina <font face=\"Symbol\">g-liase DL-propargilglicine (PGly) ou doador de H2S reagente de Lawesson ( LR).Os parâmetros funcionais e bioquímicos foram avaliados 4h após. Ratos com sinovite exibiram dor, alodinia e edema articular. Na cavidade articular foram mensurados níveis elevados de neutrófilos (> MPO), nitração de resíduos protéicos (3-NT), atividade da iNOS, NOx-, caspase-1, IL-1<font face=\"Symbol\">&#946 e via NF-<font face=\"Symbol\">kB. O LR ou indometacina, mas não PGly, reduziu significativamente a nocicepção, edema e marcadores inflamatórios, exceto iNOS, NOx-, 3-NT e NF-<font face=\"Symbol\">kB. A PGly não modificou a dor e inflamação, mas aumentou o numero de macrófagos e atividade da iNOS (NOx-) e AP-1. Conclui-se que, enquanto a administração exógena do LR produz efeitos antiinflamatórios e anti-nociceptivos, o H2S endógeno exerce pouco efeito anti-sinovite. / In this study we evaluated the effects of exogenous and endogenous H2S on Wistar rat knee synovitis induced by the intra-articular injection of carrageenan (CGN). One hour prior to CGN injection, Rats were pre-treated with indomethacin, an inhibitor of H2S formation (DL-propargylglycine) or an H2S donor Lawessons reagent (LR). CGN evoked knee inflammation, as characterized by impaired gait, secondary allodynia of the hindpaw, joint swelling, neutrophil infiltration, increased MPO, 3-NT residues, inducible NOS (iNOS) activity and NOx-, caspase-1 and NF-<font face=\"Symbol\">kB activation. Pretreatment with LR or indomethacin significantly attenuated the pain and all the inflammatory / biochemical changes, except for the increased iNOS activity, NOx- and 3-NT. PGly potentiated synovial iNOS activity (and NOx-), enhanced macrophage infiltration and AP-1 activation, but had no effect on oedema and pain. Whereas exogenous H2S delivered to the knee joint can produce a significant anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive effect, locally produced H2S exerts little immunomodulatory effect.
