Previous issue date: 2006-06-12 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / Sulfated Polysaccharides with unique chemical structures and important biological activities has been found in a diversity of sea invertebrates. For that, to exist a huger interest on the biotechnology field in the research theses sulfated compounds isolated from sea organisms. Despite the privileged brazilian position for these compounds attainment, there are still a few scientific informations about the isolated substances and their biological activities. A head the displayed, the present work has for objectives, to evaluate the pharmacological properties of the glycosaminoglycans isolated from the sea shrimp Litopenaeus schimitti on homeostasis, blood coagulation, leukocytes migration and platelet/leukocyte adhesion. For this, yhe glycosaminoglycans were extracted from crustacean tissues by proteolysis, fractionation with acetone and later submitted to pharmacological assays. The crustacean tissues showed compounds heparin-like, with anticoagulant activity of 45 IU/mg and 90 IU/mg, respectively. These molecules showed low residual hemorrhagic effects in the tested concentration (100 ?g/mL), when compared to unfractionated commercial heparin (UFH). Another dermatan sulfate-like compound, predominately constituted for disulfated disaccharides, was isolated from crustacean abdomen. This compound showed an efficient effect on leukocytes migration inhibition, in the concentration of 15 ?g/mL, reducing the cellular infiltration in 65% when compared to the controlled animals. In this same concentration, the DS reduced in 60% the protein concentration of the peritoneal exudates. In the concentration, this compound of 0.5 mg/mL, it was capable to reduce in 40% platelet/leukocytes adhesion. Our data demonstrate that these sulfated polysaccharides isolated from the shrimp L. schimitti will can be used as bioactive compounds, appearing as active principles for pharmacological development, anticoagulants and inflammatory response regulators / Polissacar?deos sulfatados com caracter?sticas estruturais distintas e importantes atividades biol?gicas t?m sido encontrados em uma diversidade de invertebrados marinhos. Por isso existe um grande interesse no campo da biotecnologia na pesquisa destes compostos sulfatados isolados de organismos aqu?ticos. No entanto, apesar da posi??o privilegiada do Brasil para a obten??o destes compostos, ainda s?o poucas as informa??es cient?ficas sobre as subst?ncias isoladas e suas atividades biol?gicas. Diante do exposto, este presente trabalho teve por objetivos avaliar os potenciais farmacol?gicos dos glicosaminoglicanos (GAGs) isolados do camar?o marinho Litopenaeus schimitti, sobre a hemostasia, coagula??o sang??nea, migra??o leucocit?ria e ades?o celular. Para isso os GAGs foram extra?dos dos tecidos do crust?ceo mediante prote?lise, fracionamento com acetona e posteriormente submetidos aos ensaios farmacol?gicos. Os tecidos do crust?ceo, abd?men e cefalot?rax, apresentaram compostos semelhantes ? heparina (heparin?ides) com atividade anticoagulante de 45 UI/mg e 90 UI/mg, respectivamente. Estas mol?culas apresentaram baixo efeito hemorr?gico residual na concentra??o de 100 ?g/mL, quando comparada com a heparina comercial n?o fracionada (HNF). Um outro composto semelhante ao dermatam sulfato (DS), constitu?do predominantemente por dissacar?deos dissulfatados foi isolado do abd?men do crust?ceo. Este composto apresentou, na concentra??o de 15 ?g/?L, uma inibi??o significativa (P<0.01) da migra??o leucocit?ria, reduzindo a infiltra??o celular em 65% quando comparado com os animais controle. Nessa mesma concentra??o o DS reduziu em 60% a concentra??o de prote?nas do lavado peritonial. As an?lises qualitativas da composi??o celular do exudato peritonial foram similares ao encontrado para os animais controles em todas as concentra??es testadas. Na concentra??o de 0,5 mg/mL foi capaz de reduzir em 40% a ades?o das plaquetas aos leuc?citos. Os dados obtidos demonstram que estes polissacar?deos sulfatados isolados do camar?o L.schimitti podem vir a ser utilizados como compostos bioativos, podendo surgir como princ?pios ativos para o desenvolvimento de f?rmacos, anticoagulantes e moduladores da resposta inflamat?ria
