Previous issue date: 2012-02-27 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / Periapical lesions are chronic inflammatory conditions of periradicular tissues considered direct consequences of infectious diseases resulting from pulp necrosis and
subsequent progression to periapical region. The participation of the immune response and bone resorption in the formation of these lesions has been investigated, so that different cell
types and cytokines have been identified as contributors to this process. In this perspective, this study aimed to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of IL-17, TGF-?1 and
FoxP3 in periapical granulomas (PGs), radicular cysts (RCs) and residual radicular cysts (RRCs), seeking a better understanding of the etiopathogenesis these periapicopatias. To this
end, we selected 20 cases of GPs, 20 CRs and 10 RRCs to undergo morphological analysis and immunohistochemistry for biomarkers above, the latter being performed quantitatively
using scores and average percentages of immunostaining for the analysis of IL-17 and TGF- ?1, while for the FoxP3 were counted only the positive lymphocytes. The results showed
statistically significant differences between TGF-?1 and FoxP3 imunoexpressions, in relation to the periapical lesions studied (p = 0.002, p <0.001, respectively) but not between IL-17 and
these (p = 0.355). Furthermore, the analysis of lymphocytes FoxP3-positive revealed significant statistical differences in that refers to the intensity of inflammatory infiltrate (p =
0.003) and also regarding thickness of the epithelial lining (p = 0.009). Finally, it was observed in the case of PGs, strong positive correlation between the amount of FoxP3-
positive lymphocytes and the immunohistochemical expression of TGF-?1 (r = 0.755, p<0.001), as well as moderate positive correlation between IL-17 and TGF-?1 imunoexpressions (r = 0.503, p = 0.024). Thus, we can conclude that interactions between Th17 and Treg cells seem to be established at the site of injury, suggesting the involvement of both pro-inflammatory and immunoregulatory cytokines in the pathogenesis of periapical
lesions / Les?es periapicais cr?nicas s?o condi??es inflamat?rias dos tecidos perirradiculares consideradas sequelas diretas de processos infecciosos resultantes da necrose pulpar e
consequente progress?o para a regi?o periapical. A participa??o da resposta imunol?gica e da reabsor??o ?ssea na forma??o destas les?es tem sido bastante investigada, de modo que
diversos tipos celulares e citocinas foram apontados como colaboradores deste processo. Nesta perspectiva, o presente estudo objetivou avaliar a express?o imuno-histoqu?mica da IL-
17, TGF-?1 e FoxP3 em granulomas periapicais (GPs), cistos radiculares (CRs) e cistos radiculares residuais (CRRs), buscando um melhor entendimento sobre a etiopatog?nese destas periapicopatias. Para tanto, foram selecionados 20 casos de GPs, 20 de CRs e 10 de CRRs para serem submetidos ? an?lise morfol?gica e imuno-histoqu?mica para os biomarcadores supracitados, sendo esta ?ltima realizada quantitativamente atrav?s de escores e percentuais m?dios de imunomarca??o para a an?lise da IL-17 e do TGF-?1, enquanto que para o FoxP3 foram contados apenas os linf?citos positivos. Os resultados demonstraram diferen?as estatisticamente significativas entre as imunoexpress?es do TGF-?1 e do FoxP3 em rela??o as les?es periapicais pesquisadas (p = 0,002; p < 0,001, respectivamente), mas n?o entre a IL-17 e estas (p = 0,355). Al?m disso, a an?lise dos linf?citos FoxP3-positivos revelou diferen?as estat?sticas significativas no que se refere ? intensidade do infiltrado inflamat?rio (p = 0,003) e tamb?m quanto ? espessura do revestimento epitelial (p = 0,009). Por fim, observou-se nos casos de GPs, forte correla??o positiva entre a quantidade de linf?citos FoxP3-positivos e a imunoexpress?o do TGF-?1 (r = 0,755; p < 0,001), assim como moderada correla??o positiva entre as imunoexpress?es da IL-17 e do TGF-?1 (r = 0,503; p =
0,024). Destarte, pode-se concluir que intera??es entre c?lulas Th17 e Treg parecem ser estabelecidas no local da agress?o, sugerindo a participa??o de citocinas tanto pr?inflamat?rias
como imunorregulat?rias na patogenia das les?es periapicais
