Abstract in Portuguese
Paracoccidioidomicose é adquirida pela via respiratória e a enzima indolamina-2,3-dioxigenase (IDO) e o catabolismo do triptofano estão envolvidos no controle da imunidade inata e adaptativa contra patógenos. Investigamos o papel da IDO na doença em animais suscetíveis (B10.A) e resistentes (A/J). Caracterizamos o efeito do tratamento com 1-Metil-DL-Triptofano (1MT) no fenótipo e comportamento de células dendríticas (DCs) e T reguladoras (Tregs) de A/J e B10.A quanto à expressão de IDO. IDO controla a carga fúngica de A/J e B10.A, reduzindo a imunidade de TCD4 e TCD8 e aumentando Tregs. Constatamos que IDO diminuiu a migração de DCs para o pulmão de A/J e B10.A e a inibição da atividade anti-inflamatória de IDO por 1MT tem um efeito deletério somente em B10.A cuja suscetibilidade é ligada à excessiva atividade pró-inflamatória. A infecção de A/J e B10.A parece induzir as funções catalítica e sinalizadora de IDO.Grande parte da função de IDO nos mecanismos imunorreguladores na paracoccidioidomicose se faz através da modulação da função de DCs em A/J e B10.A.

Abstract in English
Paracoccidioidomycosis is acquired by the respiratory route and the enzyme indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and tryptophan catabolism are involved in the control of innate and adaptive immunity against pathogens. We investigated the role of IDO in the infection in susceptible (B10.A) and resistant (A/J) mice. We characterized the effect of treatment with 1-Methyl-DL-Tryptophan (1MT) in the behavior and phenotype of dendritic cells (DCs) and regulatory T cells (Tregs) from A/J and B10.A for expression of IDO. IDO controls the fungal load in A/J and B10.A, reducing the immunity of CD4 and CD8 T cells and Tregs increased. IDO decreased the migration of DCs to the lung of A/J and B10.A and inhibition of anti-inflammatory activity of IDO by 1MT has a deleterious effect only in B10.A whose susceptibility is linked to excessive proinflammatory activity. Infection of A/J and B10.A appears to induce catalytic functions of IDO. Much of the function IDO immunoregulatory mechanisms paracoccidioidomycosis is done by modulating the function of DCs in A/J and B10.A.
