Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Curso temporal da degradação e restauração de redes perineuronais após a ação da enzima chabc entregue via implante de biomembrana no córtex cerebral de ratos(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-03-18) REIS, Rafaela Martins; BAHIA, Carlomagno Pacheco; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0910507988777644; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3794-4710The chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) founded on the extracellular matrix (ECM) of nervous tissue are the main components related to the restriction of neuroplasticity. When condenserd, they form the perineuronal nets (PNNs) and their appearance coincides with the end of the critical period of plasticity and reduction of the reorganization potencial of the central nervous system (CNS). The degradation of PNNs by the enzyme chondroitinase ABC has been used as a tool for reopening periods of neuroplasticity in adult nervous system.. In this work, we analyzed the temporal dynamics of PNNs degradation and restoration in the primary somesthetic cortex (S1) after degradation by the enzyme ChABC in an in vivo experimental model using a biomembrane vehicle for focal delivery and without damaging nervous tissue. In this way, we used adult Wistar rats that were submitted to the implantation of the biomembrane made with ethylene-vinyl-acetate saturated with the enzyme ChABC, with 1, 3 and 7 days of survival time after implantation, using the non implanted side cerebral hemisphere as a control. Our results demonstrated that degradation via implantation of the biomembrane saturated with ChABC was efficient from day 1, with a drastic reduction in the implanted hemisphere (LH) of mature PNNs. There was also a significant increase in the number of immature PNNs in the HD even 7 days after implantation. Neither the biomembrane or the enzyme triggered signs of a neuroinflammatory process or glial activation, but the removal of ECM components interfered with the immunostaining of nerve cells 7 days after the implantation of the biomembrane with ChABC. Therefore, we concluded that the ethylene-vinyl-acetate polymer biomembrane was efficient for focal delivery of the ChABC enzyme and promoted degradation of PNNs in the S1 area of adult rats, did not cause mechanical damage to the nervous tissue, nor activated glial reactivity and the area of enzymatic degradation decreases over time (from 1 to 7 days).Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Modelo experimental para indução de hemiparkinsonismo por 6-hidroxidopamina em primatas sapajus apella e avaliação das alterações motoras(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-06-09) LEAL, Leon Claudio Pinheiro; KREJČOVÁ, Lane Viana; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2604693973864638; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8016-5283; BAHIA, Carlomagno Pacheco; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0910507988777644; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3794-4710Parkinson's disease is currently the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world, with a high incidence in North and South America and Europe, for more than 50 years we have not seen any revolutionary treatment for the disease and many aspects of its neuropathology that still remain without a concrete enlightenment, in this feeling the experimental model in primates approaches the human reality are invaluable value for the development of new therapies and elucidation on mechanisms related to the disease. The 6-hydroxydopamine model in primates is a model that mimics some motor symptoms characteristic of PD. The present study aimed to develop a protocol for the induction of HemiParkinsonism in Sapajus apella primates. Three Sapajus Apella monkeys, all adult males, were submitted to daily conditioning sessions using the positive reinforcement clicker technique for primate chair positioning. Concurrently, the staircase and Brinkman tray motor tests were performed to determine laterality by the manual preference and dominance attributes. After this period, two 6-OHDA induction protocols were performed, the first protocol was injected into 10 sites in the nucleus striatum and the second protocol was injected into 10 sites in the nigrostriatal pathways, one week after the injections were performed twelve weeks of clinical analysis . All animals learned the input and positioning behaviors in the chair in a minimum of 30 sessions using pure positive reinforcement. The results of the staircase test demonstrated that the animals presented laterality consistent with the assignments of manual preference and dominance. The Brinkman test, specifically, presented lower sensitivity for determination of the same attributes, despite being the most commonly used test. Clinical analysis revealed that the second induction protocol had more motor symptoms characteristic of PD. Induction by 6-OHDA in the nigrostriatal pathways has been shown to be a good induction method for treatment studies and for a better understanding of the disease.
