    Tratamento com minociclina e transplante intraestriatal de células mononucleares da medula óssea após acidente vascular experimental encefálico
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-04-27) SILVA, Michelle Castro da; FRANCO, Edna Cristina Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5939607544965550; LEAL, Walace Gomes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2085871005197072
    Several studies suggest that both the semi-synthetic tetracycline minocycline and mononuclear bone marrow cell (BMMCs) transplantation induce neuroprotection in experimental models of stroke. However, a few studies comparatively investigated the effects of these therapeutic approaches following endothelin-1 (ET-1)-induced stroke. In this dissertation, we aimed at investigating the comparative effects of microglial inhibition with minocycline and BMMC transplantation in the acute phase of experimental stroke. Male adult Wistar rats were divided in four experimental groups: saline-treated (N=4), minocyclinetreated (N=4), BMMC-treated (N=4). Behavioral tests were performed at 1, 3 and 7 days post-ischemia to evaluate functional recovery between groups. Animals treated with minocycline received two 50mg/kg (i.p.) doses in the first two days plus five single 25mg/kg (i.p.) daily doses up to sixth days post-ischemia. 1x106 BMMCs were obtained from Wistar rats and directly transplanted into the striatum at 24h post-ischemia. Animals were perfused at 7 days after ischemia onset. Coronal sections were stained with cresyl violet for gross histopathological analysis and immunolabeled for identification of neuronal bodies (NeuN), activated microglia/macrophages (ED1) and apoptotic cells (active caspase-3). Gross histopathological analysis revealed pallor, tissue loss and intense microglial/macrophage activation in ischemic animals treated with sterile saline. BMMC transplantation induced a higher reduction (p<0.05, ANOVA-Tukey) in the number of ED1+ cells than (saline, 276, 3± 9,3;BMMCs, 133,8± 6,8; minocycline, 244,6 ± 7,1). BMMC transplantation and minocycline reduced the infarct area, compared to control, in about 67,75% and 69,1%, respectively, with no statistical differences between treatments (p>0.05). Both treatments afforded comparable levels (p>0.05) of neuronal preservation compared to control (61,3± 1,5; 86,8± 3,4; 81±3,4). BMMC treatment induce a higher decrease in the number of apoptotic cells compared to control and minocycline treatment (26,5± 1,6; 13,1± 0,7; 19,7± 1,1). Both therapeutic approaches improved functional recovery in the ischemic animals. The results suggest that BMMC transplantation is more effective in modulating microglial activation and reducing apoptic cell death than minocycline, although both treatments are equally efficacious on improving neuronal preservation. Future studies should investigate whether minocycline treatment concomitant with BMMC transplantation produces synergistic effects, which might improve neuroprotection.
