Sargassum filipendula (SF), alga pertencente ? ordem Phaeophycea, ? fonte de heterofucanas conhecidas pela capacidade de modular uma s?rie de fun??es biol?gicas. Considerando a necessidade de encontrar f?rmacos mais eficientes no combate a infec??es microbianas, as heterofucanas de SF foram avaliadas como agentes imunomoduladores e antimicrobianos. As heterofucanas SF0.5V, SF0.7V e SF1.0V apresentaram uma forte atividade imunomoduladora intensificando a libera??o de ?xido n?trico (NO) por macr?fagos murinos (RAW 264.7), bem como, por macr?fagos originados de mon?citos prim?rios humanos. Al?m disso, quando macr?fagos humanos foram infectados por Leishmania infantum e tratados com SF0.5V, SF0.7V e SF1.0V ocorreu um aumento significativo na libera??o extracelular de NO. Como a citotoxicidadede de macrof?gos contra a forma intracelular de leishmanias ? mediada pela produ??o de NO, avaliamos a atividade leishmanicida sobre a forma amastigota intracelular de L. infantum e observamos que macr?fagos infectados e tratados com SF0.5V, SF0.7V e SF1.0V se tornaram menos suscept?veis ? infec??o. As heterofucanas que se mostraram com capacidade de induzir a atividade anti-leishmania tamb?m apresentaram melhor taxa de produ??o de NO, por?m os dados de correla??o levaram a observa??o que este n?o ? o principal mecanismo de a??o das fucanas de SF no combate a esse protozo?rio. A heterofucana SF0.5V tamb?m apresentou atividade inibit?ria da forma??o de biofilme (~ 50%) frente a bact?ria Staphylococcus epidermidis. J? SF0.7V e 1.0V inibiram quase que totalmente a replica??o do protozo?rio Trichomonas vaginalis. Resultados como esse refletem o espectro de a??o desses polissacar?deos sulfatados obtidos de SF e mostram o seu potencial como agentes imunomoduladores e microbicidas. / Fucans, sulphated polysaccharides that contain L-fucose in its constitution, obtained from species of Phaeophyceae of the Sargassum kind, display several biological activities. Heterofucans from Sargassum filipendula are bioactive molecules that contain strong antiproliferative and antioxidant activity. However, their immunomodulatory and antimicrobial activities have not yet been examined. In this context, the aim of this research was to evaluate the heterofucans as for their immunomodulatory capacity and antimicrobial action against Leishmania infantum, Trichomonas vaginalis, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Klebsiella pneumonia (KPC). The five heterofucans obtained from S. filipendula show activities that are distant as stimulants of the immune system and microbial agent. The SF0.5V, SF0.7V amd SF1.0V heterofucans were capable of acting in the activation of murine and human macrophages. In addition to that, SF0.5V has shown antibiofilm activity of S. epidermides and SF0.7V and 1.0V almost completely inhibited the survival of the protozoan T. vaginalis. Results such as this one, reflect the broad range of action of the sulphated polysaccharides obtained from seaweeds, especially from the species S.filipendula
