Manifestações orais do lúpus eritematoso: padrão das citocinas do infiltrado inflamatório
Keywords in Portuguese
Citocinas
Lúpus eritematoso
Manifestações bucais
Abstract in Portuguese
INTRODUÇÃO: Lúpus eritematoso (LE) é uma doença inflamatória crônica, autoimune. A presença de citocinas do tipo 1 nas lesões cutâneas discoides sugere que estas sejam críticas para a indução, desenvolvimento e manutenção destas manifestações. As citocinas do tipo 2 em combinação com Interferon- local podem estar relacionadas com a fisiopatologia do lúpus cutâneo. O perfil das citocinas ainda é desconhecido nas lesões orais do LE. MÉTODOS: Foram investigadas e comparadas as expressões das citocinas Th1 e Th2, representadas por IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, fator de necrose tumoral alfa (TNF-) e interferon gama (IFN-), de 29 biopsias de LE de mucosa intraoral (área não exposta ao sol) e semimucosa labial (área exposta) por meio da técnica de imuno-histoquímica. RESULTADOS: O infiltrado inflamatório das lesões de LE foi fortemente positivo para IFN- (97%) e TNF- (90%), ambas citocinas Th1. Interleucina 10 (IL-10), citocina Th2, foi fortemente expressa. Outras citocinas foram apenas moderadamente positivas. O padrão de citocinas foi semelhante nas lesões orais do LE na mucosa intraoral (área não exposta) e na semimucosa labial (área exposta). CONCLUSÕES: As lesões orais de LE estão associadas tanto a citocinas Th1 quanto a citocinas Th2, caracterizadas por expressão forte de IFN-, TNF- e IL-10. Além disso, os achados sugerem que apesar da radiação ultravioleta estar envolvida na indução das lesões de LE, os mecanismos de formação das lesões podem ser similares nas áreas expostas e não expostas ao sol.

Abstract in English
Lupus erythematosus (LE) is a chronic inflammatory disease, autoimune. Presence of type 1 cytokines in cutaneous discoid lesions suggests that they may be critical for induction, development and maintenance of these manifestations. Type 2 cytokines in combination with local interferon (IFN-) are thought to be related to the physiopathology of cutaneous LE. Cytokines profiles are still unknown in oral LE lesions. Material and Methods: Expression of Th1 and Th2 cytokines (including IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, tumor necrosis factor (TNF-) and IFN- was investigated and compared in 29 biopsies of intra-oral (sun-protected) and labial lesions (sun-exposed) of LE using immunohistochemistry. Results: Inflammatory infiltrate of LE lesions was strongly positive for IFN- (97%) and TNF- (90%), both Th1 type cytokines. Interleukin-10, a Th2 cytokine was also strongly expressed. Other cytokines were only mildly positive. Cytokines patterns were similar in intra-oral (sun-covered) and labial (sun-exposed) LE lesions Conclusions: Oral LE lesions are associated with both type 1 and type 2 cytokines, characterized by stronger expression of IFN-, TNF- and IL-10. These findings suggest that although ultraviolet light is involved in the induction of LE lesions, mechanisms of lesions formation may be similar in sun-exposed as well as sun-covered areas.
