Résumé

Abstract Interleukin 17A (IL-17A) is a proinflammatory cytokine responsible for the initiation and propagation of inflammation. One of its actions is the recruitment of neutrophils to the site of infection. The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is association between IL-17A expression and neutrophil infiltration in periapical abscesses and periapical granulomas, as well as to find which type of T lymphocyte effector (CD4+ or CD8+) expresses IL-17A in these lesions. Elastase, CD4, CD8, and IL-17A were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence, in the biopsies of periapical lesions. Abscess lesions exhibited the highest labeling area for IL-17A (p = 0.011). During double immunofluorescence staining, there were significantly more CD4+/IL-17A+ cells compared to CD8+/IL-17A+ cells, both in the abscesses (p = 0.025) and granulomas (p = 0.011). In conclusion, IL-17A was intensively expressed in periapical abscesses rich in neutrophils. The high percentage of IL-17A in these cases suggests the participation of this cytokine particularly in the acute stages of the inflammatory process of the periapical lesions.

Résumé

O carcinoma epidermóide bucal (CEC) é uma neoplasia maligna com alta morbidade e mortalidade e de difícil tratamento. O tratamento convencional para o CEC inclui cirurgia e radioterapia, seguida ou não de quimioterapia. Apesar de serem amplamente difundidos, esses tratamentos podem ser ineficazes para alguns CECs resistentes. A terapia fotodinâmica (PDT) oncológica tem sido utilizada para o tratamento adjuvante do CEC bucal, principalmente nos casos menos invasivos e que necessitam de redução do tumor para a ressecção cirúrgica. Contudo, semelhantemente aos tratamentos convencionais, a PDT pode também induzir o aparecimento de populações celulares resistentes, fato já descrito para carcinoma cutâneo, adenocarcinoma de cólon e adenocarcinoma mamário. A hipótese de que células de CEC bucal possam desenvolver resistência à PDT ainda não foi testada. Portanto, o objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar se células de CEC bucal (SCC9) desenvolvem resistência a ciclos repetidos de PDT mediada pelo ácido 5- aminolevulínico (5-ALA-PDT) e avaliar se nesse processo ocorre modificação da expressão de marcadores relacionados a sobrevivência celular (NF?B, Bcl-2, iNOS, mTOR e Akt). Foi utilizada linhagem de células de CEC bucal (SCC9), submetida às seguintes condições: 1) Controle - células cultivadas sem nenhum tratamento; 2) ALA - células incubadas com 5-ALA (1mM durante 4 horas); 3) LED - tratadas com iluminação LED (630nm, 5,86J/cm2, 22,5J, 150mW, 150s); 4) PDT - tratadas com 5- ALA-PDT, com os protocolos do grupo ALA e LED combinados, gerando dose letal de 90%. Inicialmente foi realizado somente um ciclo de PDT, sendo avaliada a viabilidade celular em todos os grupos após 24, 48, 72 e 120h da irradiação. Também foi realizado ensaio de detecção da fragmentação de DNA (TUNEL) e análise por imunofluorescência da expressão das proteínas NF?B, Bcl-2, iNOS, pmTOR e pAkt nas células viáveis.


Oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality rates, and it is difficult to treat. Conventional treatment for oral SCCs includes surgery and radiotherapy that may be followed by chemotherapy. Although these treatments are widely used, they are ineffective against some resistant tumors. Oncologic photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been used as an adjuvant treatment for oral SCCs, especially in less invasive cases that require tumor reduction before surgical resection. However, like conventional treatments, PDT can induce the occurrence of resistant cell populations such as cutaneous carcinomas and colon and breast adenocarcinomas. The hypothesis that oral SCCs develop resistance to PDT has not yet been tested. Therefore, the aims of this study were to investigate whether oral SCCs (SCC9) develop resistance to several cycles of 5-aminolevulinic acidmediated PDT (5-ALA-PDT) and to determine whether the expression of markers associated with cell survival (NF?B, Bcl-2, iNOS, mTOR, and Akt) is altered during this process. An oral SCC (SCC9) cell line was used, which was subjected to the following conditions: 1) Control: cultured without any treatment; 2) ALA: incubated with 5-ALA (1 mM for 4 h); 3) LED: treated with LED light (630 nm, 5.86 J/cm2, 22.5 J, 150 mW, 150 s); and 4) PDT: treated with 5-ALA-PDT (with the protocols of the ALA and LED groups combined) generating a lethal dose of 90%. Initially, only one cycle of PDT was administered, and cell viability was determined in all groups 24, 48, 72, and 120 h after irradiation. Subsequently, the DNA fragmentation detection assay (TUNEL) and immunofluorescence analysis of the expression of proteins NF?B, Bcl-2, iNOS, pmTOR, and pAkt were performed on viable cells. The fraction of cells that survived the first treatment with 5-ALA-PDT exhibited intense staining for pmTOR and growth potential during the testing period.
