Avaliação seriada do perfil hematológico e bioquímico de primatas não humanos da espécie Sapajus apella tratados com lde-oleato de paclitaxel como instrumento para a terapêutica do câncer

Abstract

Study of a chemotherapy delivery system, called LDE, with lipid composition similar to the natural low density lipoproteins of the body, denominated by the acronym LDL. LDEs have advantages over commercial chemical forms, since it is able to concentrate in the neoplastic tissues after injection into the circulatory chain, thus being able to target the tumors. LDE can be used as a "carrier" of paclitaxel (PTX) for possible reduction of toxicity and increase of its therapeutic action. The use of non-human primates as in vivo experimental models are of great importance in human health applications due to their anatomical, biochemical and phylogenetic similarities with human primates, generating results that can be interpreted more closely and safely to The phenomena in humans. The aim of the project was to evaluate the chronic toxicity of nanoparticles associated with to chemotherapy Paclitaxel (LDE-PTX) in individuals of the Sapajus apella species, based on the determination of hematological and biochemical parameters and their possible alterations. During the research 15 animals were used, divided into groups: Negative control (CN); Experimental (EXP1 and EXP2) where the animals received LDE-PTX intravenously two different doses of 175 mg / m2 and 250 mg / m2 respectively; and positive control (CP1 and CP2) where the animals intravenously received the drug in commercial form at the same doses used in the experimental group, respectively. Primates were accompanied for 6 cycles of chemotherapy, with interval of 3 weeks. Hematological and biochemical analysis was performed at each cycle through erythrogram and leukogram, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin and globulin, total bilirubin and fractions, glycemia, amylase and serum lipase. E of the sodium and potassium eletrolytes were carried out in the serum of the animals during the collection days. Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation and submitted to analysis of variance ANOVA, with Bonferroni post-test with significance for p <0.05, through BioEstat®5.3. The obtained results demonstrated advantages of the use of LDE-PTX, since the hematological tests demonstrate that there was a lower toxicity in all the chemotherapeutic cycles and the non-alteration of the majority of the biochemical parameters, demonstrate that the toxicity of the tested drug associated to LDE present smaller Effect toxic than its commercial version. It was concluded from the analysis of the results that hematological and biochemical toxicity was lower in treatment with PTX associated with LDE than treatment of PTX in its commercial form.
