Diferença de frequência dos anticorpos anticitoplasma de neutrófilos (ANCAs) na colangite esclerosante primária com ou sem doença inflamatória intestinal, nos subtipos de hepatite autoimune e na colangite biliar primária / Difference of frequency on antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in primary sclerosing cholangitis with or without IBD, subtypes of autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cholangitisCrescente, Juliana Goldbaum 24 January 2017 (has links)
Introdução: Os anticorpos anticitoplasma de neutrófilos (ANCA) são classificados em três padrões observados na imunofluorescência indireta (IFI) utilizando neutrófilos humanos fixados em etanol e formaldeído como substrato. O c-ANCA apresenta forte associação com a enzima neutrofílica proteinase 3 (PR3), enquanto o p-ANCA está fortemente associado à mieloperoxidase (MPO). Na hepatite autoimune (HAI), colangite esclerosante primária (CEP) e doença inflamatória intestinal (DII) é observado outro padrão de IFI classificado como p-ANCA atípico que não apresenta reatividade contra as enzimas PR3 e MPO. Objetivo: Determinação da frequência dos diferentes padrões de ANCAs na CEP com ou sem DII concomitante (CEP/DII+, CEP/DII-), em três subtipos de hepatite autoimune (HAI-1 com anticorpo antimúsculo liso padrão tubular; HAI-2 com anticorpo antimicrossoma de fígado e rim tipo 1; HAI antiantígeno hepático solúvel/fígado e pâncreas, na colangite biliar primária (CBP) e em controles saudáveis. O anticorpo antinúcleo poderia estar presente em todos os subtipos. Os resultados dos ANCAs foram comparados com os do ELISA para verificação de concordância entre os padrões e as reatividades antigênicas. Metodologia: Foram estudados 249 pacientes (42 CEP/DII+; 33 CEP/DII-; 31 HAI-1; 30 HAI-2; 31 HAI-3; 52 CBP; 30 indivíduos saudáveis). As amostras de soro desses pacientes foram processadas pelos ensaios comerciais INOVA: ANCA Etanol, Quanta LiteTM MPO ELISA, Quanta LiteTMPR3 ELISA, Quanta LiteTM FAN HEp-2; e em lâminas com neutrófilos humanos fixados em etanol preparadas in house. Para as análises estatistícas foram utilizados os testes de Fisher com correção de Holm, os testes kappa e de McNemar. Resultados: O p-ANCA esteve presente em 4 (1,6%), o c-ANCA em 3 (1,2%), o p-ANCA atípico em 62 (24,9%), o c-ANCA atípico em dois (0,8%) e o padrão inconclusivo em 14 (5,6%) de 249 amostras testadas. O p-ANCA atípico foi mais frequentemente detectado na CEP/DII+ (52,4%; IC 95% = 37,7-66,6) em relação à CEP/DII- (21,2; IC 95% = 10,4-38,0), p=0,005. Não houve diferença significante na frequência do p-ANCA atípico na CEP/DII- em relação a CBP (15,38%, IC 95% = 7,83-27,89), p=0,501. O p-ANCA atípico foi significantemente mais positivo na HAI-1 (45,2%, IC 95% = 29,15-62,24, p < 0,001) e HAI-3 (32,3%, IC = 18,46-49,97, p=0,012) em comparação a HAI-2 (3,3%, IC 95% = 0-18,09). Não foi detectada diferença entre a HAI-1 e a HAI-3 (p=0,434). Ao considerarmos todos os padrões conjuntamente, persistiram as mesmas diferenças significantes entre a CEP/DII+ versus CEP/ DII- (p=0,037) e entre a HAI-2 versus HAI-1 (p=0,011) e versus HAI-3 (p=0,024). A reatividade do anti-PR3 foi encontrada em 25 das 249 amostras, sendo mais frequente na CEP/DII+ (31,0% IC 95%: 22,94 - 50,88) do que na CEP/ DII- (12,1%, IC 95%: 4,52-29,46, p = 0,025). Anticorpos anti-MPO foram identificados em oito de 249 amostras (3,2%). Das 25 amostras positivas para o anti-PR3 apenas uma apresentou c-ANCA; outras duas amostras positivas para o c-ANCA foram negativas para o anti-PR3. As oito amostras positivas para o anti-MPO não apresentaram reatividade para o p-ANCA e as quatro que tinham esse padrão não foram reativas para o anti-MPO. Entre as 62 amostras reativas para o p-ANCA atípico 49 não apresentaram reatividade para o anti-PR3 e anti-MPO. Das treze amostras positivas para o p-ANCA atípico e que exibiram reatividade ao ELISA, doze apresentaram positividade para o anti-PR3 e uma para o anti-MPO e para o anti-PR3. Conclusões: 1) Do ponto de vista de reatividade dos ANCAs e do anti-PR3 a CEP/DII+ teve comportamento diferente da CEP/ CEP/ DII - que que que que teve comportamento semelhante ao da CBP, o que pode sugerir que a maior frequência do p-ANCA atípico e do anti-PR3 esteja mais associada à DII do que à CEP; 2) Quanto à reatividade dos ANCAs, pacientes com HAI-1 e HAI-3 tiveram características semelhante entre si e diferente do da HAI-2; 3) Não houve concordância entre os resultados da IFI para os padrões c-ANCA e p-ANCA clássicos e os do ELISA anti-PR3 e anti-MPO; 4) A melhor concordância de leitura dos padrões do ANCA foi para o p-ANCA atípico, porque a maioria dos soros com esse padrão não teve reatividade nem para o anti-PR3 nem para o anti-MPO por ELISA; 5) Para doenças do aparelho digestivo (DII, CEP e HAI) é difícil relacionar os padrões do ANCA obtidos na imunofluorescência indireta com a reatividade observada nos ELISAs comerciais / Background: The antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) has 3 main subtypes according to the pattern observed by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) on ethanol and formalin fixed human neutrophils. The cANCA has a strong association to a neutrophil enzyme proteinase 3 (PR3), while the classical pANCA has a strong association to myeloperoxidase (MPO), catepsin G, elastase, lactoferrin, lysozyme. Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), shows another pattern called atypical pANCA that does not react to the enzymes PR3 and MPO. Aims: Determine the frequency of different types of ANCA in PSC, with or without association to IBD (PSC/IBD+, PSC/IBD-); 3 AIH subtypes (AIH type 1, with antismooth muscle antibody (ASMA) with the tubular pattern and with or without antinuclear antibody (ANA); AIH type 2, with anti-LKM1 antibody; AIH anti-Soluble liver antigen/liver pancreas antigen (anti-SLA/LP), with or without ANA associated); primary biliary cholangites (CBP) and healthy controls. Methods: we studied 249 patients (42 PSC/IBD+; 33 PSC/IBD-; 31 AIH-1; 30 AIH-2; 31 HAI antiSLA/LP; 52 CBP; 30 healthy controls). The serum sample of these patients were processed with the INOVAÒ commercial kits: ANCA Etanol, Quanta LiteTM MPO ELISA, Quanta LiteTM PR3 ELISA, Quanta LiteTM FAN HEp-2; and human neutrophil slides ethanol fixed in house. Statistical analysis were performed using the Fisher Test, with Holm correction when nedeed, McNemar and Kappa Test. Results: The classical pANCA were present in 1.9% (IC 95%: 0 - 11.07) CBP patients and 7.1% (IC 95%: 1.77 - 19.7) of PSC/IBD+ patients. There were no statistical significance between groups. The atypical pANCA were identified in 62 out of 249 samples (24.9%). It were more frequently detected in PSC/IBD+ (52.4%, IC 95%: 37.72-66.6) then in PSC/IBD- (21.2%, IC 95%: 10.38 - 38.05), p = 0.005. The Fisher test did not show statistical significance between PSC/IBD+ and CBP for atypical pANCA reactivity (21.2%, IC 95%: 10.38-38.05 versus 15.4%, IC 95%: 7.74 - 27.79), p = 0.56. However, there was statistical significance for atypical pANCA between AIH subtypes, p < 0,001. Among AIH subtypes, the atypical pANCA were more frequent in AIH-1 than in AIH-2 (45.2%, IC 95%: 29.15 - 62.24 versus 3.3%, IC 95%: 0 - 18.09, p < 0.001) and more frequent in AIH-3 than in AIH-2 (32.3%, IC 95%: 18.46-49.97 versus.3.3%, IC 95%: 0 - 18.09, p = 0.012). There were no statistical diference between AIH-1 e a AIH-3 (p = 0.434).None of the 30 healthy controls showed the atypical pANCA pattern. The classical cANCA were present in just 3 of 249 patient samples (1.2%), 1 CBP, 1 PSC/IBD+ and 1 AIH-1. The atypical cANCA is rarely described in the literature. We identified just 2 samples with the atypical cANCA of 249 samples (0.8%), one PSC/IBD+ patient and another AIH-2 patient. 14 out of 249 samples (5.6%), showed a positive fluorescence on ethanol fixed slides, even though we couldn\'t define a ANCA pattern because of the ANA interference. However, the Fisher test did not show a statistical significance between the studied groups (among AIH subtypes, p= 0.207 and PSC/IBD+ versus PSC/IBD-, p = 0.945). Antibodies against proteinase-3, that is considered the classical cANCA target, we detected 25 out of 249 samples (10.0%). The anti-PR3 were more frequent in PSC/IBD+ (31.0%, IC 95%: 22.94-50.88) than in PSC/IBD- (12.1%, IC 95%:4.52-29.46), p = 0,025. Antibodies against antimyeloperoxidase, one of the target antigens of the classical pANCA, were identified in 8 out of 249 samples (3.2%). The overall ELISA results, adding the anti-PR3 and anti-MPO, show that this autoantibodies were more frequent in PSC among the other groups, mainly PSC/IBD+ (p= 0.002). It is worth mentioning that PSC/IBD+ 2 patients showed simultaneously anti-PR3 and anti-MPO reactivity. If we consider atypical pANCA as atypical pANCA by IIF and negative ELISA (anti-MPO and anti-PR3), 49 out of 249 samples (19.7%), The Fisher test showed a difference statistical significance in atypical pANCA IIF+/ELISA- between PSC/IBD+ (35.7%, IC 95%: 22.94 - 50.88) and PSC/IBD- (12.1%, IC 95%:4.21 - 27.93), p = 0,018. The Fisher test did not show significant difference between PSC/IBD- and CBP (13.5%, IC 95%: 6.37 - 25.58), p = 1. The same test showed statistical significance reactivity of ANCA IIF+/ELISA- among AIH subtypes (p=0,001), been more frequent in AIH-1 then in AIH-2 (p = 0.001) and among AIH-3 versus AIH-2 (p = 0.025). There was no statistical difference among AIH-1 versus AIH-3, p = 0,426. Conclusion:SC/IBD+ had a different serological pattern compared with PSC/IBD-, since atypical p-ANCA and anti-PR3 antibodies were significantly more frequent in the former. According to the ANCA profile, PSC/IBD- had a similar behavior to PBC which may suggest that atypical p-ANCA and anti-PR3 antibodies are more associated with IBD than with PSC. Patients with ASMA AIH and with anti-SLA/LP had higher frequency of atypical p-ANCA than anti-LKM1 AIH; There was no concordance between the results of indirect immunofluorescence and those of ELISA. Then, the results of ANCA by immunofluorescence are completely observer-dependent

Food Antigen Sensitivity in Coeliac Disease Assessed by the Mucosal Patch TechniqueKristjánsson, Guðjón January 2005 (has links)
<p>A diagnosis of coeliac disease (CD) in adults relies on the presence of a structurally abnormal intestinal mucosa, followed by a clear clinical remission on a gluten-free diet. There is a clear need for a rapid, simple, safe and sensitive method to determine the type and intensity of inflammation in the gut mucosa in clinical practice. The overall aims of our studies were to develop and evaluate a new technique, “the mucosal patch technique”, to characterize rectal local inflammatory process after rectal food challenge in patients with CD<b>. In study 1</b> we evaluated the potential of the new technique. The technique was well tolerated and easily applied. Pronounced neutrophil and eosinophil involvement in ulcerative colitis (UC) was demonstrated. With the high sensitivity of the technique, low-degree mucosal neutrophil activation could also be quantified in patients with collagen colitis,UC in clinical remission and in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. <b>In study 2 and 3</b> the aim was to elucidate the dynamics of the rectal inflammatory response and nitric oxide (NO) production after rectal gluten challenge. We found a pronounced neutrophil activation in coeliac patients after rectal gluten challenge. This activation was apparent 4 hours after challenge and remains for at least 48 hours. A more modest eosinophil activation started 1-2 hours later and remained at least for 48 hours. The biphasic pattern of neutrophil and eosinonphil activation after challenge suggests a biphasic inflammatory reaction. The activation of neutrophils and eosinophils precedes a pronounced enhancement of mucosal NO production. Some of our coeliac patients displayed signs of an inflammatory reaction after rectal corn gluten challenge. <b>In study 4</b> the aim was to investigate the local inflammatory reaction to gluten and cow’s milk protein in CD patients in remission. The findings indicate that not only gluten sensitivity but also cow’s milk (CM) protein sensitivity is common in CD. The data support the hypothesis that CM sensitivity may contribute to persistent symptoms in coeliac patients on gluten-free diet.</p>

Barrier function of the Follicle-Associated Epithelium in Stress and Crohn's diseaseKeita, Åsa January 2007 (has links)
Crohns sjukdom är en kronisk inflammatorisk tarmsjukdom av okänd orsak. Det tidigaste tecknet på Crohns sjukdom är mikroskopiska sår i det s.k. follikelassocierade epitelet (FAE) som täcker ansamlingar av immunceller i tarmen. FAE är specialiserat för att fånga innehåll från tarmen och transportera det till underliggande immunvävnad. Denna funktion är viktig för att inducera skyddande immunsvar, men den utgör också en ingångsväg för sjukdomsalstrande bakterier. Crohns sjukdom är associerat med ett kraftigt ökat immunsvar mot bakterier, och sjukdomsförloppet kan ändras av stress. Det övergripande syftet med avhandlingen var att studera effekterna av stress på FAE samt att undersöka rollen av FAE vid utvecklingen av tarminflammation, särskilt vid Crohns sjukdom. Inledningsvis studerades effekterna av psykologisk stress på FAE. Stressade råttor uppvisade ökad genomsläpplighet av bakterier efter stress, och passagen var högre i FAE än i vanligt epitel. Efterföljande experiment visade att stressförändringarna i slemhinnan regleras via kortikotropinfrisättande hormon och mastceller. Vidare visade det sig att vasoaktiv intestinal peptid kunde efterlikna stressens effekter på genomsläppligheten, och att detta kunde förhindras genom att blockera mastcellerna. Studier av tunntarmsslemhinna från patienter med icke-inflammatorisk tarmsjukdom och friska kontroller visade en högre passage av bakterier i FAE än i vanligt epitel. Hos patienter med Crohns sjukdom var bakteriepassagen genom FAE betydligt ökad jämfört med kontroller. Resultaten från detta avhandlingsarbete visar att stress kan förändra upptaget av bakterier från tarmen via FAE, med mekanismer som innefattar kortikotropinfrisättande hormon och mastceller. Detta har gett nya kunskaper kring regleringen av slemhinnebarriären. Vidare presenterar denna avhandling nya insikter i sjukdomsuppkomsten vid Crohns sjukdom genom att påvisa en tidigare okänd defekt i barriärfunktionen i FAE. / The earliest observable signs of Crohn’s disease are microscopic erosions in the follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) covering the Peyer’s patches. The FAE, which contains M cells, is specialised in sampling of luminal content and delivery to underlying immune cells. This sampling is crucial for induction of protective immune responses, but it also provides a route of entry for microorganisms into the mucosa. Crohn’s disease is associated with an increased immune response to bacteria, and the disease course can be altered by stress. The overall aim of this thesis was to study the effects of stress on the FAE and elucidate the role of FAE in the development of intestinal inflammation, specifically Crohn’s disease. Initially, rats were submitted to acute and chronic water avoidance stress to study the effects of psychological stress on the FAE. Stressed rats showed enhanced antigen and bacterial passage, and the passage was higher in FAE than in regular villus epithelium (VE). Further, stress gave rise to ultrastructural changes. Subsequent experiments revealed the stress-induced increase in permeability to be regulated by corticotropin-releasing hormone and mast cells. Furthermore, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) mimicked the stress effects on permeability, and the VIP effects were inhibited by a mast cell stabiliser. Human studies of ileal mucosa from patients with non-inflammatory disease and healthy controls showed a higher antigen and bacterial passage in FAE than in VE. In patients with Crohn’s disease, the bacterial passage across the FAE was significantly increased compared to non-inflammatory and inflammatory controls (ulcerative colitis). Furthermore, there was an enhanced uptake of bacteria into dendritic cells, and augmented TNF-α release in Crohn’s disease mucosa. Taken together this thesis shows that stress can modulate the uptake of luminal antigens and bacteria via the FAE, through mechanisms involving CRH and mast cells. It further shows that human ileal FAE is functionally distinct from VE, and that Crohn’s disease patients exhibit enhanced FAE permeability compared to inflammatory and non-inflammatory controls. This thesis presents novel insights into regulation of the FAE barrier, as well as into the pathophysiology of Crohn’s disease by demonstrating a previously unrecognised defect of the FAE barrier function in ileal Crohn’s disease.

The Use of Laboratory Analyses in Sweden : Quality and Cost-Effectiveness in Test UtilizationMindemark, Mirja January 2010 (has links)
Laboratory analyses, essential in screening, diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of disease, are indispensable in health care, but appropriate utilization is intricate. The overall aim of this thesis was to study the use of laboratory tests in Sweden with the objective to evaluate and optimize test utilization. Considerable inter-county variations in test utilization in primary health care in Sweden were found; variations likely influenced by local traditions and habits of test ordering leading to over- as well as underutilization. Optimized test utilization was demonstrated to convey improved quality and substantial cost savings. It was further established that continuing medical education is a suitable means of optimizing test utilization, and consequently enhancing quality and cost-efficiency, as such education was demonstrated to achieve long-lasting improvements in the test ordering habits of primary health care physicians. Laboratory tests are closely associated with other, greater, health care costs, but their indirect effects on other areas of medicine are rarely evaluated or measured in monetary terms. In an illustrative example of the effects that optimal test utilization may have on associated health care costs it was demonstrated that F-calprotectin, a fecal marker of intestinal inflammation, has the potential to substantially reduce the number of invasive investigations necessary in, and the costs associated with, the diagnosis of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Information on trends in test utilization is essential to optimal financial management of laboratories. A longitudinal evaluation revealed that test utilization had increased by 70% in 6 years, and even though the selection of tests more than doubled, a very small number of tests represented a stable, and disproportionally large, share of the total number of tests ordered. The study defines trends and thus has potential predictive values. In summary, appropriate utilization of laboratory analyses has both clinical and economical benefits on all levels of health care.

A Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis and Meta-Regression of the Proportion of Campylobacter, Non- typhoidal Salmonella and E. coli O157 Cases that Develop Chronic SequelaeKeithlin, Jessica 03 January 2013 (has links)
Understanding of chronic sequelae development after infection with foodborne pathogens is limited and an increased understanding could assist with the development of more accurate burden of disease estimates. The purpose of this thesis was to determine via systematic review and meta-analysis of the published international literature, the proportion of cases of Salmonella, Campylobacter and E. coli O157 that will develop the chronic sequelae of reactive arthritis, haemolytic uraemic syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease or Guillain Barré syndrome. This information can be used to increase our understanding of the relationship between infection and the development of long term health complications while providing a key piece of information for the development of accurate burden of disease estimates. / Canadian Institutes of Health Research

Differential functions of Interleukin-10 derived from different cell types in the regulation of immune responsesSurianarayanan, Sangeetha 10 January 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an important regulator of immune responses secreted by different cell types. Previous results from our group suggested that the biological effects of this cytokine critically depend on its cellular source. Recent studies reported IL-10 dependent immunosuppressive functions of a specialized subset of regulatory B cells and mast cells. These results relied on adoptive cell transfers, a technique which can potentially introduce artifacts. Therefore, we aimed to readdress these questions in independent models using IL-10 transcriptional reporter mice and various conditional IL-10 mutant mice.
Findings in IL-10 reporter system suggested prominent IL-10 transcription in regulatory B cells upon LPS administration. Exposure of mice to contact allergen revealed robust reporter expression in CD8 T cells, moderate to mild reporter expression in CD4 T cells and dendritic
cells (DC) respectively, and lack of reporter expression in B cells, mast cells and NK cells in allergen challenged ears.
We generated cell-type specific IL-10 mutants by Cre/LoxP-mediated conditional gene inactivation. Efficiency and specificity of Cre-mediated recombination was demonstrated by Southern blot and PCR methods.
Various immunogenic challenges in conditional IL-10 mutants did not reveal a role for B cell-derived IL-10 in restraining innate TLR or T cell-dependent inflammatory responses. Likewise, mice with selective inactivation of the il10 gene in mast cells exhibited normal CHS responses and unaltered immune response to CpG oligodeoxynucleotides. On the other hand, DC-specific IL-10 mutants developed excessive inflammatory responses to contact allergens, while innate responses to TLR ligands were not altered. This indicates a non-redundant role for DC-derived IL-10 in contact allergy.
Thus, the conditional IL-10 ‘‘knockout’’ mice combined with the novel transcriptional IL-10 reporter system can serve as ideal tools to understand the cell-type specific contributions to IL-10-mediated immune regulation.

Klinické a genetické prediktory lékové závislosti u idiopatických střevních zánětů / Clinical and genetic predictors of drug dependency in inflammatory bowel diseaseĎuricová, Dana January 2012 (has links)
IN ENGLISH Drug dependency in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a specific disease phenotype which determines disease prognosis and hence may be used as a prognostic marker for treatment management. Drug dependency in IBD has been well described in corticosteroid treatment and recently also in infliximab (IFX) therapy. The aims of this thesis were: 1) to assess the occurrence of IFX dependency in paediatric and adult patients with CD; further to search for clinical and genetic predictors of IFX outcome and to evaluate the impact of IFX dependency on surgical rate; 2) to assess in CD patients the outcome of the first course of 5-ASA monotherapy with emphasis on 5-ASA dependency and to define clinical predictors of 5-ASA treatment outcome. We found that 66% of children and 29% of adults with CD became IFX dependent. The high frequency in paediatrics is in agreement with previously published studies, while the finding in adult patients indicates a lower rate of IFX dependency in the only study to date. Perianal disease and no bowel surgery prior to IFX start were predicative of IFX dependency in paediatric patients. In adult cohort, 2 genetic variants LTA c.207 A>G and CASP9 c.93 C>T were associated with IFX outcome, whereas no relevant clinical...

Previous issue date: 2015-09-02 / CAPES / Doença inflamatória intestinal descreve um grupo heterogêneo de doenças inflamatórias
crônicas do trato gastrointestinal. Os dois principais tipos de DII são retocolite ulcerativa
idiopática e doença de Crohn. A patogênese dessas doenças é caracterizada pela
inflamação persistente no intestino, envolvendo uma interação entre fatores genéticos,
ambientais e imunológicos. Foram investigados aspectos clínico-epidemiológicos e
analisados os polimorfismos dos genes da reposta imune em pacientes brasileiros com
doença inflamatória intestinal em diferentes formas anátomo-clínicas. Um total de 101
pacientes foram analisados (43 - retocolite ulcerativa idiopática e 58 - doença de Crohn)
para os polimorfismos dos genes do fator de necrose tumoral alfa (TNF-α -308 G/A;
rs1800629), interleucina-10 (IL-10 -1082 G/A; rs1800896), domínio do recrutamento e
ativação da caspase 15/receptor tipo NOD2 (CARD15/NOD2; rs2066844 e rs2066845),
receptor tipo NOD contendo domínio pirina – NLRP1 (rs12150220), NLRP3 (rs35829419)
e interleucina -1beta (IL-1β -511T/C; rs16944). A forma anatómica-clínica de DC
predominante foi a fistulizante (29,31%), seguida por inflamatória (27,58%) e estenosante
(27,58%). O grupo controle foi composto por 91 indivíduos saudáveis. Os genes do
receptor tipo NOD contendo domínio pirina 1 e 3 e do domínio do recrutamento e ativação
da caspase 15/receptor tipo NOD2 variantes R702W e G908R não foram associados à
susceptibilidade a doença inflamatória intestinal. Em relação ao polimorfismo da
interleucina 10, nenhuma diferença estatística foi encontrada entre os genótipos e alelos
para a doença inflamatória intestinal comparado aos controles. Fator de necrose tumoral
alfa mostrou uma associação estatisticamente significativa entre pacientes e controles de
retocolite ulcerativa idiopática que sugere que a presença do alelo A predispõe o
aparecimento de retocolite ulcerativa idiopática, mas não doença de Crohn. Verificou-se
ainda que o genótipo AG da interleucina 1 foi associado com o desenvolvimento de
retocolite ulcerativa idiopática. Os resultados sugerem que os polimorfismos de única base
do fator de necrose tumoral alfa e da interleucina 1 estão envolvidos com a retocolite
ulcerativa idiopática e podem contribuir para a patogênese na população brasileira
estudada. / Inflammatory bowel disease describes a heterogeneous group of chronic inflammatory
diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The two main types of inflammatory bowel disease
are ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease. The pathogenesis of the disease is characterized
by unpredictable attacks of inflammation of the intestine, besides involving an interaction
between genetic, environmental and immunological factors. Clinical and epidemiological
aspects were investigated and the polymorphisms of genes of the immune response in
Brazilian patients with inflammatory bowel disease in different anatomic-clinical forms were
analyzed. A total of 101 patients were analyzed (43 - ulcerative colitis and 58 - Crohn
disease) for the tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α -308 G/A; rs1800629), interleukin-10
(IL-10 -1082 G/A; rs1800896), caspase activation and recruitment domains 15/ NOD like
receptor 2 (CARD15/NOD2; rs2066844 and rs2066845), NOD like receptor pyrin domain
containing – NLRP1 (rs12150220), NLRP3 (rs35829419) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β 511T/C;
rs16944) genes polymorphisms. The anatomic-clinical form of Crohn disease
predominant was the fistulizing (29.31%), followed by inflammatory (27.58%) and
stricturing (27.58%). A control group was composed by 91 healthy subjects group. NOD
like receptor pyrin domain containing 1 and 3 and caspase activation and recruitment
domains 15/ NOD like receptor 2 genes R702W and G908R variants were not associated
to inflammatory bowel disease susceptibility. With respect to the polymorphism of
interleukin-10, no statistical difference was found between the genotypes and alleles for
inflammatory bowel disease compared to controls. Tumour necrosis factor alpha showed
a statistically significant association between ulcerative colitis patients and controls which
suggests that the presence of A allele predisposes the onset of ulcerative colitis but not
Crohn disease. It was found yet that AG genotype of interleukin-1beta was associated with
the development of ulcerative colitis. The results suggest that the tumour necrosis factor
alpha and interleukin-1beta single nucleotide polymorphisms are involved with ulcerative
colitis and may be contributing to pathogenesis in Brazilian population.

Previous issue date: 2017-08-11 / Introdução: Atividade física de vida diária e capacidade de exercício nunca foram avaliadas em pacientes com Doença de Crohn (DC) em remissão induzida por infliximabe.
Objetivos: Nosso objetivo foi avaliar a atividade física de vida diária, capacidade de exercício, qualidade de vida (QV) e desordens do humor em pacientes com DC moderada a grave em remissão induzida por infliximabe, e investigar variáveis associadas com atividade física de vida diária nestes pacientes.
Métodos: Um estudo transversal foi conduzido, com 26 pacientes com DC foram selecionados. Controles foram indivíduos assintomáticos com dispepsia funcional. Os pacientes foram avaliados quanto à atividade física de vida diária pelo acelerômetro triaxial, à capacidade de exercício (shuttle walk test – SWT), força de preensão manual, QV e desordens de humor. As associações entre a atividade física de vida diária e a QV ou desordens do humor foram testadas.
Resultados: O número de passos dado (7446 ± 3081 vs. 7898 ± 2487), o tempo ativo (80,56 ± 41,97 min vs. 89,65 ± 24,30 min), a distância percorrida no SWT (662,69 ± 252,86 m vs. 728,82 ± 346,55 m) e a força de preensão manual (34,3 ± 11,1 kgf vs. 32,9 ± 11,9 kgf) não mostraram significância estatística entre pacientes com DC e controles. O tempo gasto deitado (116,31 ± 107,38 min vs. 63,71 ± 55,79 min) e alguns domínios da QV foram superiores em pacientes com DC (p< 0,05). Nenhuma correlação foi observada entre o nível de atividade física de vida diária e QV ou desordens de humor em pacientes com DC (p>0,05).
Conclusão: Nós encontramos que pacientes com DC em remissão induzida por infliximabe tem o mesmo nível de atividade física de vida diária e capacidade de exercício quando comparados com controles. / Background: Physical activity in daily life and exercise capacity have never been assessed in Crohn’s disease (CD) patients on infliximab-induced remission.
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the physical activity in daily life, exercise capacity, quality of life (QoL) and mood disorders in patients with moderate-to-severe CD on infliximab-induced remission, and to investigate variables associated with physical activity in daily life in these patients.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, in which 26 patients with CD were selected. Controls were currently asymptomatic individuals with functional dyspepsia. Patients underwent to evaluation of physical activity in daily life by a triaxial accelerometer, exercise capacity (shuttle walk test-SWT), handgrip strength, QoL and mood disorders. The associations between the physical activity in daily life and QoL or mood disorders were tested.
Results: The number of steps taken (7446 ± 3081 vs. 7898 ± 2487), the active time (80.56 ± 41.97 min vs. 89.65 ± 24.30 min), the SWT distance (662.69 ± 252.86 m vs. 728.82 ± 346.55 m) and the handgrip (34.3 ± 11.1 kgf vs. 32.9 ± 11.9 kgf) didn’t show significant difference between CD patients and controls, respectively. The time spending lying down (116.31 ± 107.38 min vs. 63.71 ± 55.79 min) and some domains of quality of life were superior in CD patients (p< 0.05). No correlation was observed between the level of physical activity in daily life and QoL or mood disorders in CD patients (p>0.05).
Conclusions: We found that patients with CD on infliximab-induced remission have the same level of physical activity in daily life and exercise capacity when compared with controls.
