Indução de tolerância nasal com colágeno tipo V em modelo experimental de esclerodermia / Collagen V- induced nasal tolerance in scleroderma experimental model

Velosa, Ana Paula Pereira 08 May 2007 (has links)
Objetivo: Verificar o remodelamento da pele e produção de anticorpos em modelo experimental de esclerodermia em coelhos, após indução de tolerância nasal com colágeno tipo V. Métodos: Coelhas Nova Zelândia (N=12) foram imunizadas com 1mg/ml de colágeno V (Col V) em adjuvante completo de Freund e dois reforços com adjuvante incompleto de Freund. Seis coelhas imunizadas receberam uma dose diária de 25ug de Col V, iniciado via nasal (grupo tolerado) 150 dias do começo das imunizações e seis animais foram somente imunizadas (grupo imunizado). Um grupo imunizado com adjuvante de Freund serviu como controle. Biopsias de pele foram coletadas em 0, 75, 120, 150 e 210 dias e coradas pelo H&E, tricrômico de Masson e Sírius red para analise morfológica e morfométrica. Os colágenos I, III e V, além de TGFbeta e PDGF foram imunomarcados por imunofluorescência. Os soros dos animais foram coletados em 0, 150 e 210 dias para determinar anticorpos anti-colágenos I, III, IV e V e anti-nucleares. Resultados: Os animais imunizados mostraram progressivo decréscimo da derme papilar, atrofia de anexos, aumento no depósito dos colágenos I, III e V e aumento da expressão de TGFbeta e PDGF. Os tolerados apresentaram aumento dos anexos cutâneos e significante diminuição no depósito dos colágenos I, III e V, TGFbeta e PDGF. O grupo de imunizados e de tolerados apresentaram anticorpos anti-colágenos III e IV e antinucleares. Conclusões: A indução de tolerância nasal com Col V diminuiu o remodelamento da pele observado no modelo experimental de esclerodermia e inibiu a síntese de citocinas fibrogênicas. Portanto, a tolerância nasal com Col V pode ser uma opção terapêutica promissora para o controle do remodelamento cutâneo em pacientes com esclerodermia. / Objective: Our aim was to verify the skin remodeling and antibody production in experimental model of scleroderma in rabbits, after induction of tolerance by daily nasal administration of human type V collagen (Col V). Methods: Female New Zealand rabbits (N=12) were immunized with 1mg/ml of Col V in complete Freund\'s adjuvant, followed by more two boosters in incomplete Freund\'s adjuvant. Six immunized rabbits received daily nasal administrating of 25ug of Col V (tolerated group), started 150 days after the first immunization, and the others animals (N=6) were only immunized (immunized group). Finally a group of rabbits immunized with Freund\'s adjuvant served as control. Skin biopsies were collected at 0, 75, 120, 150 and 210 days, and stained with H&E, Masson\'s trichrome and Sirius red for morphological and morphometric analysis. Types I, III and V collagen, TGFbeta and PDGF were immunostained by immunofluorescence. The sera of animals were colleted at 0, 150 and 210 days to determine anti types I, III, IV and V collagen and antinuclear antibodies. Results: The immunized animals showed progressive decrease of papillary dermis, appendages atrophy, increase of types I, III and V collagen deposition and increased expression of TGF-beta and PDGF. The tolerated rabbits presented increase of cutaneous appendages and significant decrease of types I, III and V and TGF-beta and PDGF. Both immunized and tolerated rabbits presented anti types III and IV antibodies and antinuclear antibodies. Conclusions: Col V nasal tolerance reduced skin remodeling in experimental model of scleroderma and inhibited synthesis of fibrotic cytokines. Therefore, the nasal tolerance with type V collagen can be a promising therapeutic option to control the skin remodeling in patients with scleroderma.
