One of the greatest problems faced by this disease is the latent infection (LTBI), where individuals do not manifest clinical symptoms, is a reservoir of the causing agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), and can reactive the disease at any time during their life span. Moreover, TB can affect any organ in the body, such as the skin, causing extrapulmonary TB, a rare form of TB, the TB skin. Some of these forms may be more severe than pulmonary TB, causing serious consequences to the patient, contributing to the high mortality rate of this disease. In this context, understanding the immunological events related to the interaction between pathogen and host the development of active disease or latent infection is a crucial point that can contribute to the control of TB. Thus, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the specific immune response of CD8+ T cells and cytokines in cutaneous tuberculosis, latent and active pulmonary TB. Thirty six patients with pulmonary TB, one patient with cutaneous TB and 36 healthy controls, classified as LTBI (N = 13) or negative (TST-, N = 23) by the tuberculin skin test were recruited and the peripheral blood mononuclear cells, plasma and sera from those individuals were collected to perform flow cytometry, ELISA and multiplex bead array analysis. It was observed that patients with active pulmonary TB presented TCD8+ cells with a regulatory profile, expressing IL-10 and TGF-β in a direct relation to the bacillary load. The same profile was observed in the individual with cutaneous TB, an extra-pulmonary form of TB. The findings observed in this studyco nclude that Mtb can modulate CD8+ T cell response in lung and skin tuberculosis, demonstrating the importance of studies assessing the immune interaction between the pathogen and the host. / A tuberculose (TB) é uma doença causada por Mycobacterium tuberculosis, principal agente etiológico da TB humana. Milhões de pessoas morrem todo ano em decorrência da TB, doença infecciosa que tem prevenção, tratamento e cura. Um dos maiores problemas enfrentados com essa doença é a infecção latente (TBIL), onde o indivíduo não manifesta os sintomas clínicos e constitui um reservatório da bactéria, podendo desenvolver a doença ativa em qualquer momento. Além disso, a TB pode afetar qualquer órgão do corpo, como por exemplo, a pele, causando uma forma rara de TB extrapulmonar, a TB cutânea. Algumas dessas formas podem ser mais severas que a TB pulmonar, trazendo consequências graves ao paciente, contribuindo para o alto índice de mortalidade dessa enfermidade. Nesse contexto, entender os eventos imunológicos relacionados à interação entre patógeno e o hospedeiro no desenvolvimento da doença ativa ou da infecção latente é um ponto crucial que pode contribuir para o controle da TB. Diante disso, os objetivos desse trabalho foram avaliar a resposta imune específica de células TCD8+ e citocinas na tuberculose cutânea, latente e pulmonar ativa. Para isso, foram recrutados 36 pacientes com TB pulmonar ativa, 01 paciente com TB cutânea e 36 controles sadios classificados quanto à prova tuberculínica em indivíduos com infecção latente (TBIL = 13) ou não (PT-=23). Foram obtidas, de todos os pacientes, as células mononucleares do sangue periférico, o plasma e o soro para realização dos ensaios de citometria de fluxo e ELISA. Foi observado que os pacientes com TB pulmonar ativa apresentam um perfil regulador de células TCD8+ específicas, com expressão de IL-10 e TGF-β relacionados com a carga bacilar quando comparado aos indivíduos com TBIL e controles sadios PT negativa. Esse mesmo perfil também foi observado e descrito no caso clínico do paciente com TB cutânea. Diante de todos os achados observados nesse trabalho podemos concluir que Mtb pode modular a resposta de células TCD8+ na tuberculose pulmonar e cutânea, demonstrando a importância de estudos que avaliem a interação imunológica entre o patógeno e o hospedeiro tais como este.

"Avaliação crítica do uso da reação em cadeia da polimerase e exames complementares no diagnóstico da tuberculose cutânea e micobacteriose atípica" / The role of polymerase chain reaction and panel exams in the diagnosis of cutaneous tuberculosis and atypical mycobacteria skin infection compared to clinical evaluation

Abdalla, Cristina Martinez Zugaib 30 November 2005 (has links)
Realizou-se estudo comparando o uso da reação em cadeia da polimerase à evolução clínica e painel de exames tradicionais para diagnóstico em pacientes com suspeita clínica de tuberculose cutânea e micobacteriose atípica. Observou-se sensibilidade da reação em cadeia da polimerase de 88%, especificidade de 83%, valor preditivo positivo de 82%, valor preditivo negativo de 88% e acurácia de 85% com concordância pelo teste de McNemar (p= 0,655). Os exames do painel de maior acurácia, após a reação em cadeia da polimerase, foram o teste tuberculínico com acurácia de 79% e a presença de dermatite crônica granulomatosa com reação em cadeia da polimerase positiva com acurácia também de 79%, ambos com concordância pelo teste de McNemar (p= 0,179 e p= 0,655, respectivamente) / A study was performed comparing the polymerase chain reaction and the traditional panel of exams for the diagnosis in patients with a clinical suspicion of cutaneous tuberculosis and atypical mycobacteria infection to the clinical evaluation. It was observed that the sensitivity of the PCR was 88%, the specificity was 83%, the positive predictive value was 82%, the negative predictive value was 88% and the accuracy was 85% in agreement with the McNemar test (p=0.655). The panel exams of second highest accuracy, were the tuberculin test with an accuracy of 79% and the chronic granulomatous dermatitis with positive PCR, also with an accuracy of 79%, both in agreement with the McNemar test (p=0.179 and p=0.655, respectively)
