Abstract Objective: This study aimed to evaluate neuronal markers in stromal cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) and standardize the isolation and characterization of those cells. Methodology: Healthy primary teeth were collected from children. The cells were isolated by enzymatic digestion with collagenase. By following the International Society for Cell and Gene Therapy (ISCT) guidelines, SHED were characterized by flow cytometry and differentiated into osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic lineages. Colony-forming unit-fibroblasts (CFU-F) were performed to assess these cells’ potential and efficiency. To clarify the neuronal potential of SHED, the expression of nestin and βIII-tubulin were examined by immunofluorescence and SOX1, SOX2, GFAP, and doublecortin (DCX), nestin, CD56, and CD146 by flow cytometry. Results: SHED showed mesenchymal stromal cells characteristics, such as adhesion to plastic, positive immunophenotypic profile for CD29, CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105, and CD166 markers, reduced expression for CD14, CD19, CD34, CD45, HLA-DR, and differentiation in three lineages confirmed by staining and gene expression for adipogenic differentiation. The average efficiency of colony formation was 16.69%. SHED expressed the neuronal markers nestin and βIII-tubulin; the fluorescent signal intensity was significantly higher in βIII-tubulin (p<0.0001) compared to nestin. Moreover, SHED expressed DCX, GFAP, nestin, SOX1, SOX2, CD56, CD146, and CD271. Therefore, SHED had a potential for neuronal lineage even without induction with culture medium and specific factors. Conclusion: SHEDs may be a new therapeutic strategy for regenerating and repairing neuronal cells and tissues.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

Abstract: Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease affecting 300 million people worldwide. It results in several structural changes in the airways, which are minimally accessible in clinical practice. Cell therapy using mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) is a promising strategy for treating asthma due to the paracrine activity of MSCs, which influences tissue regeneration and modulates the immune response. Studies using extracellular vesicles (EV) released by MSCs have demonstrated their regenerative properties in animal models. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of EVs isolated from human bone marrow MSCs (hBM-MSCs) to control lung tissue remodeling in ovalbumin-induced allergic asthma in Balb/c mice. We isolated hBM-MSCs from a single donor, expanded and characterized them, and then isolated EVs. Asthma was induced in 43 male Balb/c mice, divided into four groups: control, asthmatic (AS), asthmatic plus systemic EVs (EV-S), and asthmatic plus intratracheal EVs (EV-IT). Upon completion of asthma induction, animals were treated with EVs either locally (EV-IT) or intravenously (EV-S). Seven days after, we performed bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and the total nuclear cells were counted. The animals were euthanized, and the lungs were collected for histopathological analysis of the airways. The EV-S group showed improvement in only the total BAL cell count compared with the AS group, while the EV-IT group showed significant improvement in almost all evaluated criteria. Therefore, we demonstrate that the local application of EVs derived from hBM-MSCs may be a potential treatment in controlling asthma.

ABSTRACT Objective: Adipose tissue-derived stromal/stem cells (ASCs) and vitamin D have immunomodulatory actions that could be useful for type 1 diabetes (T1D). We aimed in this study to investigate the safety and efficacy of ASCs + daily cholecalciferol (VIT D) for 6 months in patients with recent-onset T1D. Materials and methods: In this prospective, dual-center, open trial, patients with recent onset T1D received one dose of allogenic ASC (1 x 106 cells/kg) and cholecalciferol 2,000 UI/day for 6 months (group 1). They were compared to patients who received chol-ecalciferol (group 2) and standard treatment (group 3). Adverse events were recorded; C-peptide (CP), insulin dose and HbA1c were measured at baseline (T0), after 3 (T3) and 6 months (T6). Results: In group 1 (n = 7), adverse events included transient headache (all), mild local reactions (all), tachycardia (n = 4), abdominal cramps (n = 1), thrombophlebitis (n = 4), scotomas (n = 2), and central retinal vein occlusion at T3 (n = 1, resolution at T6). Group 1 had an increase in basal CP (p = 0.018; mean: 40.41+/-40.79 %), without changes in stimulated CP after mixed meal (p = 0.62), from T0 to T6. Basal CP remained stable in groups 2 and 3 (p = 0.58 and p = 0.116, respectively). Group 1 had small insulin requirements (0.31+/- 0.26 UI/kg) without changes at T6 (p = 0.44) and HbA1c decline (p = 0.01). At T6, all patients (100%; n = 7) in group 1 were in honeymoon vs 75% (n = 3/4) and 50% (n = 3/6) in groups 2 and 3, p = 0.01. Conclusions: Allogenic ASC + VIT D without immunosuppression was safe and might have a role in the preservation of β-cells in patients with recent-onset T1D. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03920397.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

Abstract Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are generated from adult cells that have been reprogrammed to pluripotency. However, in vitro cultivation and genetic reprogramming increase genetic instability, which could result in chromosomal abnormalities. Maintenance of genetic stability after reprogramming is required for possible experimental and clinical applications. The aim of this study was to analyze chromosomal alterations by using the G-banding karyotyping method applied to 97 samples from 38 iPSC cell lines generated from peripheral blood or Wharton’s jelly. Samples from patients with long QT syndrome, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and from normal individuals revealed the following chromosomal alterations: acentric fragments, chromosomal fusions, premature centromere divisions, double minutes, radial figures, ring chromosomes, polyploidies, inversions and trisomies. An analysis of two samples generated from Wharton’s jelly before and after reprogramming showed that abnormal clones can emerge or be selected and generate an altered lineage. IPSC lines may show clonal and nonclonal chromosomal aberrations in several passages (from P6 to P34), but these aberrations are more common in later passages. Many important chromosomal aberrations were detected, showing that G-banding is very useful for evaluating genetic instability with important repercussions for the application of iPSC lines.

RESUMO: A utilização de células-tronco na reparação de lesões tem sido extensivamente investigada. Neste estudo, examinamos os efeitos terapêuticos de dois transplantes (12x106 céls/transplante) de células-tronco mesenquimais alogênicas derivadas do tecido adiposo (CTDAs) em 11 cães com lesões crônicas traumáticas toracolombares da medula espinhal. As CTDAs foram foram cultivadas in vitro, a proliferação e a viabilidade foram avaliadas. As suspensões foram expandidas e administradas no espaço intradural com intervalo de uma semana entre transplantes. Os cães foram submetidos à avaliações clínicas, laboratoriais, radiográficas, tomográficas, sensitivas, motoras e cistométricas. A maioria dos animais não tinha raça definida (63,63%), mesma proporção para o acometimento de fêmeas e foi observada predominância de fratura com subluxação vertebral (81,81%). Na comparação dos cães pré e pós-transplante não foram observadas alterações hematológicas e três animais (27,27%) apresentaram cistite bacteriana. Em relação a sensibilidade, motricidade e cistometria, também não houve alterações significativas dos índices antes e pós transplantes, sendo observado a ausência nociceptiva na maioria dos animais (72,73%), paraplegia e incontinência urinária na mesma proporção. Neste estudo concluiu-se que o protocolo utilizado de transplante de CTDAs, demonstrou ser um tratamento seguro para cães com lesão medular crônica, com melhora discreta da funcionalidade vesical, porém sem melhora clínica significativa.

ABSTRACT: The use of stem cells in injury repair has been extensively investigated. In this study, we examined the therapeutic effects of two transplants (12x106 cells/transplantation) of allogenic adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) in 11 dogs with chronic spinal cord injury. ASC were cultured in vitro, proliferation and cell viability were evaluated. Cell suspensions were prepared and administered in the intradural space, with a one-week interval between transplants. The animals were submitted to clinical, laboratory, radiographic, tomographic, sensory, motor and cystometric evaluations. Most of the animals were not a breed defined (63.63%), the same proportion for females affected, predominance of vertebral subluxation fracture was observed (81.81%). Before and after the transplants no hematological changes were observed, three animals (27.27%) presented bacterial cystitis, and in relation to motor, cystometry and sensitivity, no improvement was observed; the rates were maintained before and after transplants, predominance of nociceptive absence in most animals (72.73%), and paraplegia and urinary incontinence in the same proportion. In this study it was concluded that the use of ADSCs for the treatment of dogs with chronic spinal cord injury is safe, with a slight improvement in bladder function, but without significantly clinical improvement.

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a capacidade do eluato proveniente da membrana de plasma rico em fibrina (PRF) de induzir proliferação e diferenciação das células-tronco humanas isoladas de tecido adiposo (CTDAh) em condrócitos. Método: As membranas de PRF foram obtidas por centrifugação de sangue periférico de dois indivíduos saudáveis, cortadas, colocadas em poços de placa de cultivo por 48 h para obtenção do eluato de fibrina. As CTDAh foram isoladas do tecido adiposo por digestão com solução de colagenase e expandidas in vitro. As células foram expandidas e tratadas com meio de cultivo DMEM-F12, meio comercial para diferenciação condrocítica, e eluato de fibrina durante três dias e marcadas com BrdU para avaliação quantitativa da proliferação celular com o uso do sistema de imagens High-Content Operetta®. Para o ensaio de diferenciação condrogênica, as CTDAh foram cultivadas em micromassa por 21 dias e coradas com azul de toluidina e agrecana para avaliação qualitativa em microscópio óptico. As avaliações estatísticas foram feitas por meio dos testes Anova e Tukey. Resultados: Houve uma maior proliferação das células tratadas com o eluato de fibrina comparativamente com os outros dois tratamentos, nos quais o teste Anova apontou significância (p < 0,001). A diferenciação em condrócitos foi visualizada pela presença de mucopolissacarídeos na matriz das células tratadas com meio de diferenciação ou eluato e marcação positiva para agrecana. Conclusões: O tratamento com o eluato da membrana de fibrina estimulou a proliferação celular e induziu a diferenciação das células-tronco em condrócitos, o que sugere uma potencial aplicação da membrana de PRF nas terapias de regeneração de cartilagem hialina.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the ability of the eluate from fibrin-rich plasma (FRP) membrane to induce proliferation and differentiation of isolated human adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) into chondrocytes. Method: FRP membranes were obtained by centrifugation of peripheral blood from two healthy donors, cut, and maintained in culture plate wells for 48 h to prepare the fibrin eluate. The SCATh were isolated from adipose tissue by collagenase digestion solution, and expanded in vitro. Cells were expanded and treated with DMEM-F12 culture, a commercial media for chondrogenic differentiation, and eluate from FRP membrane for three days, and labeled with BrdU for quantitative assessment of cell proliferation using the High-Content Operetta® imaging system. For the chondrogenic differentiation assay, the SCATh were grown in micromass for 21 days and stained with toluidine blue and aggrecan for qualitative evaluation by light microscopy. The statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA and Tukey's test. Results: There was a greater proliferation of cells treated with the eluate from FRP membrane compared to the other two treatments, where the ANOVA test showed significance (p < 0.001). The differentiation into chondrocytes was visualized by the presence of mucopolysaccharide in the matrix of the cells marked in blue toluidine and aggrecan. Conclusions: Treatment with eluate from FRP membrane stimulated cell proliferation and induced differentiation of the stem cells into chondrocytes, suggesting a potential application of FRP membranes in hyaline cartilage regeneration therapies.

Fundamento:Pacientes portadores de cardiomiopatia dilatada idiopática apresentam alta morbimortalidade, mesmo em tratamento clínico otimizado. A infusão autóloga de células-tronco adultas da medula óssea mostrou resultados clínicos preliminares promissores nesses pacientes.Objetivo:Determinar a eficácia do transplante autólogo de células-tronco adultas da medula óssea sobre as funções sistólica e diastólica, e o grau de insuficiência mitral em pacientes portadores de cardiomiopatia dilatada idiopática em classes funcionais NYHA II e III.Métodos:Infundiram-se 4,54 x 108 ± 0,89 x 108 células-tronco adultas da medula óssea nas artérias coronárias de 24 pacientes com cardiomiopatia dilatada idiopática em classes funcionais NYHA II e III. Após 3 meses, 6 meses e 1 ano, avaliaram-se as mudanças de classe funcional, das funções ventricular esquerda sistólica e diastólica, e do grau da insuficiência mitral.Resultados:No seguimento, seis (25%) pacientes melhoraram sua classe funcional e oito (33,3%) mantiveram sua classe funcional inicial. A fração de ejeção ventricular esquerda aumentou 8,9%, 9,7% e 13,6%, após 3 e 6 meses e 1 ano (p = 0,024; p = 0,017 e p = 0,018), respectivamente. A função diastólica ventricular esquerda e o grau de insuficiência mitral não demonstraram mudanças significativas. Dois pacientes (8,3%) receberam cardioversor e ressincronizador implantável. Ocorreram quatro (16,6%) mortes súbitas e quatro (16,6%) mortes por insuficiência cardíaca terminal. A sobrevida média desses oitos pacientes foi de 2,6 anos.Conclusão:A infusão intracoronariana de células-tronco adultas da medula óssea em pacientes com cardiomiopatia dilatada idiopática promoveu melhora ou estabilização da classe funcional, e melhora da fração de ejeção ventricular esquerda em expressivo número de pacientes, sugerindo eficácia dessa intervenção. Não se observaram mudanças significativas na função diastólica ventricular esquerda e nem no grau de insuficiência mitral.

Background:Morbimortality in patients with dilated idiopathic cardiomyopathy is high, even under optimal medical treatment. Autologous infusion of bone marrow adult stem cells has shown promising preliminary results in these patients.Objective:Determine the effectiveness of autologous transplantation of bone marrow adult stem cells on systolic and diastolic left ventricular function, and on the degree of mitral regurgitation in patients with dilated idiopathic cardiomyopathy in functional classes NYHA II and III.Methods:We administered 4,54 x 108 ± 0,89 x 108 bone marrow adult stem cells into the coronary arteries of 24 patients with dilated idiopathic cardiomyopathy in functional classes NYHA II and III. Changes in functional class, systolic and diastolic left ventricular function and degree of mitral regurgitation were assessed after 3 months, 6 months and 1 year.Results:During follow-up, six patients (25%) improved functional class and eight (33.3%) kept stable. Left ventricular ejection fraction improved 8.9%, 9.7% e 13.6%, after 3, 6 and 12 months (p = 0.024; 0.017 and 0.018), respectively. There were no significant changes neither in diastolic left ventricular function nor in mitral regurgitation degree. A combined cardiac resynchronization and implantable cardioversion defibrillation was implanted in two patients (8.3%). Four patients (16.6%) had sudden death and four patients died due to terminal cardiac failure. Average survival of these eight patients was 2.6 years.Conclusion:Intracoronary infusion of bone marrow adult stem cells was associated with an improvement or stabilization of functional class and an improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction, suggesting the efficacy of this intervention. There were no significant changes neither in left ventricular diastolic function nor in the degree of mitral regurgitation.

Resumen: Pt En | Texto: Pt En | PDF: Pt | PDF: En

Objetivo: Realizar uma avaliação comparativa de duas técnicas cirúrgicas que são usadas para criar um infarto agudo do miocárdio pela oclusão da artéria coronária descendente anterior esquerda, a fim de gerar ratos com uma fração de ejeção ventricular esquerda inferior a 40%. Métodos: O estudo foi completamente randomizado e composto por 89 ratos anestesiados com halotano, que foram divididos dentro de três grupos. O grupo controle (SHAM) composto por 14 ratos, cuja artéria coronária descendente anterior esquerda não foi ocluída. Grupo 1 (G1): composto por 35 ratos intubados endotraquealmente e ventilados mecanicamente, cuja artéria coronária descendente anterior esquerda foi ocluída. Grupo 2 (G2): constituído por 40 ratos sendo ventilados manualmente utilizando um respirador nasal, cuja artéria coronária descendente anterior esquerda foi ocluída. Outras diferenças entre as duas técnicas incluem o método de realizar a toracotomia e remover o pericárdio, a fim de expor o coração, e o uso de diferentes métodos e tipos de sutura para fechar o tórax. Sete dias após a cirurgia, a função cardíaca de todos os ratos sobreviventes foi determinada por ecocardiografia. Resultados: Nenhum rato do grupo SHAM foi a óbito ou teve fração de ejeção ventricular esquerda menor que 40%. Nove dos 16 ratos sobreviventes do G1 (56,3%) e seis dos 20 ratos sobreviventes do G2 (30%) tiveram uma fração de ejeção ventricular esquerda inferior a 40%. Conclusão: Os resultados indicam uma tendência da técnica utilizada no G1 ser melhor do que a do G2. Esta melhora deve-se provavelmente à maior duração do tórax aberto, o que reduz a pressão de tempo sobre o cirurgião, permitindo uma oclusão da artéria coronária descendente anterior esquerda com maior acurácia.

Objective: To perform a comparative assessment of two surgical techniques that are used creating an acute myocardial infarc by occluding the left anterior descending coronary artery in order to generate rats with a left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 40%. Methods: The study was completely randomized and comprised 89 halothane-anaesthetised rats, which were divided into three groups. The control group (SHAM) comprised fourteen rats, whose left anterior descending coronary artery was not occluded. Group 1 (G1): comprised by 35 endotracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated rats, whose left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded. Group 2 (G2): comprised 40 rats being manually ventilated using a nasal respirator whose left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded. Other differences between the two techniques include the method of performing the thoracotomy and removing the pericardium in order to expose the heart, and the use of different methods and suture types for closing the thorax. Seven days after surgery, the cardiac function of all surviving rats was determined by echocardiography. Results: No rats SHAM group had progressed to death or had left ventricular ejection fraction less than 40%. Nine of the 16 surviving G1 rats (56.3%) and six of the 20 surviving G2 rats (30%) had a left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 40%. Conclusion: The results indicate a tendency of the technique used in G1 to be better than in G2. This improvement is probably due to the greater duration of the open thorax, which reduces the pressure over time from the surgeon, allowing occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery with higher accuracy.

As células tronco mesenquimais são utilizadas na terapia de várias doenças na medicina humana e veterinária. As células tronco foram isoladas da medula óssea de gato, entretanto, existem poucos dados referentes a morfologia e não existem informações sobre a morfometria das células tronco isoladas da medula óssea. Os objetivos do presente estudo foram o isolamento, avaliação do crescimento, potencial de diferenciação e caracterização morfológica e morfométrica das células mesenquimais de gato isoladas de medula óssea. A diferenciação in vitro foi realizada para confirmar a multipotencialidade das células mesenquimais de gato (diferenciação em osteoblastos, condrócitos, adipócitos). As células mesenquimais foram mantidas em cultivo para avaliações morfológica e morfométrica. As células foram coradas e observadas em microscopia ótica. As mensurações foram realizadas com 24, 48, 72 e 120h de cultura (primeira e terceira passagens). O teste não paramétrico ANOVA foi utilizado e as médias foram comparadas pelo teste de Tukey. O número médio de células mononucleares obtido foi de 12,29 (±6,05x10(6)) células/mL de medula óssea. As células mesenquimais são longas e fusiformes, e escamosas com citoplasma abundante. No estudo morfométrico, observou-se aumento no comprimento médio das células durante a primeira passagem. As medidas de comprimento das células foram: 106,97±38,16µm e 177,91±71,61µm, respectivamente, na primeira e terceira passagens (24 horas). As medidas de largura das células foram: 30,79±16,75 µm e 40,18±20,46 µm, respectivamente, na primeira e terceira passagens (24 horas). O comprimento do núcleo na primeira passagem aumentou de 16,28µm (24h) para 21,29µm (120h) e na terceira passagem foi de 26,35µm (24h) para 25,22µm (120h). As informações são importantes para futuras aplicações e uso da célula mesenquimal de gato.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are increasingly being proposed as a therapeutic option for treatment of a variety of different diseases in human and veterinary medicine. Stem cells have been isolated from feline bone marrow, however, very few data exist about the morphology of these cells and no data were found about the morphometry of feline bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs). The objectives of this study were the isolation, growth evaluation, differentiation potential and characterization of feline BM-MSCs by their morphological and morphometric characteristics. in vitro differentiation assays were conducted to confirm the multipotency of feline MSC, as assessed by their ability to differentiate into three cell lineages (osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and adipocytes). To evaluate morphological and morphometric characteristics the cells are maintained in culture. Cells were observed with light microscope, with association of dyes, and they were measured at 24, 48, 72 and 120h of culture (P1 and P3). The non-parametric ANOVA test for independent samples was performed and the means were compared by Tukey's test. On average, the number of mononuclear cells obtained was 12.29 (±6.05x10(6)) cells/mL of bone marrow. Morphologically, BM-MSCs were long and fusiforms, and squamous with abundant cytoplasm. In the morphometric study of the cells, it was observed a significant increase in average length of cells during the first passage. The cell lengths were 106.97±38.16µm and 177.91±71.61µm, respectively, at first and third passages (24 h). The cell widths were 30.79±16.75 µm and 40.18±20.46µm, respectively, at first and third passages (24 h).The nucleus length of the feline BM-MSCs at P1 increased from 16.28µm (24h) to 21.29µm (120h). However, at P3, the nucleus length was 26.35µm (24h) and 25.22µm (120h). This information could be important for future application and use of feline BM-MSCs.

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

Stem cell-based regenerative medicine is one of the most intensively researched medical issues. Pre-clinical studies in a large-animal model, especially in swine or miniature pigs, are highly relevant to human applications. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been isolated and expanded from different sources. Objective: This study aimed at isolating and characterizing, for the first time, bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs) from a Brazilian minipig (BR1). Also, this aimed to validate a new large-animal model for stem cell-based tissue engineering. Material and Methods: Bone marrow (BM) was aspirated from the posterior iliac crest of twelve adult male BR1 under general anesthesia. MSCs were selected by plastic-adherence as originally described by Friedenstein. Cell morphology, surface marker expression, and cellular differentiation were examined. The immunophenotypic profile was determined by flow cytometry. The differentiation potential was assessed by cytological staining and by RT-PCR. Results: MSCs were present in all minipig BM samples. These cells showed fibroblastic morphology and were positive for the surface markers CD90 (88.6%), CD29 (89.8%), CD44 (86.9%) and negative for CD34 (1.61%), CD45 (1.83%), CD14 (1.77%) and MHC-II (2.69%). MSCs were differentiated into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondroblasts as demonstrated by the presence of lipidic-rich vacuoles, the mineralized extracellular matrix, and the great presence of glycosaminoglycans, respectively. The higher gene expression of adipocyte fatty-acid binding protein (AP2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and collagen type 2 (COLII) also confirmed the trilineage differentiation (p<0.001, p<0.001, p=0.031; respectively). Conclusions: The isolation, cultivation, and differentiation of BM-MSCs from BR1 makes this animal eligible as a useful large-animal model for stem cell-based studies in Brazil.

Resumen: Pt En | Texto: Pt En | PDF: Pt | PDF: En

A lesão medular é incapacitante, irreversível e de custo econômico e social elevado. Neste estudo, objetivou-se padronizar um modelo de lesão medular, que produza paraplegia, com o uso de cateter e avaliar histologicamente a efetividade da lesão para estudos com terapia celular. Foram realizadas as lesões medulares em ratos Wistar, utilizando-se o cateter Fogarty n.3 e compressão na região toracolombar (T8-T9) durante 5 minutos. Foram estudados três grupos: grupo A, animais controle sem lesão medular; grupo B, animais submetidos à lesão, utilizando-se 50µL de compressão; grupo C, animais submetidos à lesão, utilizando-se 80µL de compressão. Foi realizada avaliação motora pela aplicação da escala BBB, antes da compressão, após recuperação anestésica, 24 e 72 horas depois da compressão e sete dias após a compressão. Após o sétimo dia da lesão, os animais foram submetidos à eutanásia, foi feita a retirada da medula espinhal, fígado e rins e realizada a análise histológica com a coloração hematoxilina-eosina. A mortalidade variou entre os grupos, com 0% no grupo A, 38,5% no B e 48% no C. Nesses dois últimos grupos, a causa da morte foi edema pulmonar neurogênico, confirmado clínica e histologicamente. As medulas espinhais histologicamente apresentaram diferentes graus de edema, congestão vascular e hemorragia, enquanto que os fígados e os rins apresentaram diferentes graus de congestão vascular e necrose. Em relação à recuperação dos movimentos, no grupo A, verificou-se 100% de escore 21; no B, 25% de escore 21; 37,5% de escore 11; e 37,5% de escore 0; enquanto, no grupo C, verificou-se 100% de escore 0. Conclui-se que o procedimento realizado utilizando-se 80µL de solução salina para preencher o balão do cateter foi mais eficiente, apesar de maior mortalidade, pois apresentou maior porcentagem de animais com lesão completa (paraplegia).

Spinal cord injury is disabling, irreversible and with high economic and social cost. This study aimed to standardize a model of spinal cord injury to induce paraplegia, with a catheter and to evaluate the effectiveness of the histological lesion for further studies with cell therapy. Cord lesions were performed in Wistar rats using the Fogarty catheter n.3 and compression in the thoracolumbar region (T8-T9) for 5 minutes. We studied three groups: A control group without spinal cord injury, B group subjected to 50?L compression injury, C group with animals subjected to 80?L compression injury. Motor evaluation was performed by applying the BBB scale, before compression, after recovery from anesthesia, 24 and 72 hours after compression and 7 days after compression. At the seventh day after injury, the animals were euthanized. The spinal cord, liver and kidneys were removed and a histological analysis was performed with hematoxylin-eosin staining. Mortality varied among groups, it was 0% in group A, 38.5% in group B and 48% in group C. In the latter two groups the cause of death was neurogenic pulmonary edema, clinically and histologically confirmed. Histologically the spinal cord showed different degrees of edema, hemorrhage and vascular congestion, while the liver and kidneys showed different degrees of vascular congestion and necrosis. Regarding movement recovery, in group A it was found a 100% score 21, in group B 25% of score 21, 37.5% score 11 and 37.5% of score zero, whereas in group C there was a 100% of score zero. It is concluded that the procedure performed using 80?L of saline to fill the balloon catheter was more efficient because, although the higher percentage of mortality, it induced a higher percentage of animals with complete injury (paraplegia).

Resumen: En | Texto: En | PDF: En

OBJECTIVE: To present the initial results of first three years of implementation of a genetic evaluation test for bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in a Cell Technology Center.METHODS: A retrospective study was carried out of 21 candidates for cell therapy. After the isolation of bone marrow mononuclear cells by density gradient, mesenchymal stem cells were cultivated and expanded at least until the second passage. Cytogenetic analyses were performed before and after cell expansion (62 samples) using G-banded karyotyping.RESULTS: All the samples analyzed, before and after cell expansion, had normal karyotypes, showing no clonal chromosomal changes. Signs of chromosomal instability were observed in 11 out of 21 patients (52%). From a total of 910 analyzed metaphases, five chromatid gaps, six chromatid breaks and 14 tetraploid cells were detected giving as total of 25 metaphases with chromosome damage (2.75%).CONCLUSION: The absence of clonal chromosomal aberrations in our results for G-banded karyotyping shows the maintenance of chromosomal stability of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells until the second passage; however, signs of chromosomal instability such as chromatid gaps, chromosome breaks and tetraploidy indicate that the long-term cultivation of these cells can provide an intermediate step for tumorigenesis.

Introdução: Avaliamos por meio da medida de fluxo por tempo de trânsito o desempenho das artérias torácicas direita e esquerda quando utilizadas como enxerto para revascularização da artéria interventricular anterior. Métodos: Cinquenta pacientes submetidos à operação para revascularização do miocárdio sem circulação extracorpórea foram divididos em dois grupos. No grupo A, os pacientes receberam enxerto de artéria torácica interna direita para o ramo interventricular anterior. No grupo B, os pacientes receberam enxerto de artéria torácica interna esquerda para o mesmo ramo. Ao término da operação, o fluxo foi avaliado por meio da medida de fluxo por tempo de trânsito. Resultados: No grupo A, idade média foi de 60,6±9,49 anos. A média de peso e altura do grupo foi de 80,4±10,32 Kg e 169,2±6,86 cm. A média de pontes por paciente neste grupo foi de 3,28±1,49. O fluxo médio e a resistência distal obtidos na artéria torácica interna direita foi de 42,1±23,4 ml/min e 2,8±0,9 respectivamente. No grupo B, a idade média foi de 59,8±9,7 anos. A média de peso e altura deste grupo foi de 77,7±14,2215,7 Kg e 166,0±8,2 cm. A média de pontes por paciente neste grupo foi de 3,08±0,82. O fluxo médio e a resistência distal observados neste grupo foi de 34,2±19,1ml⁄min e 2,0±0,7. Não houve óbitos nesta série. Conclusão: A artéria torácica interna direita apresentou um comportamento similar ao da artéria torácica interna esquerda quando anastomosada ao ramo interventricular anterior da coronária esquerda. Não houve diferença estatística entre a medida de fluxo obtida entre ambas as artérias.

INTRODUCTION: We evaluated with transit time flow the performance of the right and left thoracic arteries when used as a graft for the left anterior descending artery. Methods: Fifty patients undergoing surgery for myocardial revascularization without cardiopulmonary bypass were divided into two groups. In group A patients received graft of right internal mammary artery to the anterior interventricular branch. In group B patients received graft of left internal mammary artery to the same branch. At the end of the operation the flow was assessed by measuring transit time. Results: In group A, mean age was 60.6±9.49 years. The average height and weight of the group was 80.4±10.32 kg and 169.2±6.86 cm. The average number of grafts per patient in this group was 3.28±1.49. The mean flow and distal resistance obtained in right internal thoracic artery was 42.1±23.4 ml/min and 2.8±0.9 respectively. In group B, the mean age was 59.8±9.7 years. The average height and weight of this group was 77.7±14.22 kg and 166.0±8.2 cm. The average number of grafts per patient in this group was 3.08 ±0.82. The mean flow and distal resistance observed in this group was 34.2±19.1 ml/min and 2.0±0.7. There were no deaths in this series. Conclusion: Right internal mammary artery presented a similar behavior to left internal mammary artery when anastomosed to the anterior interventricular branch of the left coronary artery. There was no statistical difference between the measured flow obtained between both arteries.
