Title in Portuguese
Influência do ácido indol-3-acético na capacidade fagocitária e na integridade celular de neutrófilos de ratos
Keywords in Portuguese
Staphylococcus aureus
auxina
fagocitose
fragmentação de DNA
mieloperoxidase
Abstract in Portuguese
O Ácido Indol Acético (AIA) é um hormônio, denominado auxina e há uma correlação direta entre o efeito citotóxico do AIA e da atividade da peroxidase nas células animais. Os Neutrófilos apresentam uma alta atividade de peroxidase e o AIA gera uma mudança ultra-estrutural e morte destas células em cultura. Entretanto, estudos in vivo mostram que a administração de AIA em baixas doses não promove um efeito prooxidante em neutrófilos e esta suplementação aumenta o englobamento de partículas de Zymosan por estas células. No presente estudo foram avaliados os efeitos da administração do AIA na capacidade fagocitária e na integridade celular de neutrófilos de ratos, observando os seguintes parâmetros: i) capacidade fagocitária – englobamento e morte de Staphylococcus aureus; ii) integridade celular – integridade da membrana plasmática, fragmentação de DNA e potencial transmembrana mitocondrial e iii) atividade de mieloperoxidase. O tratamento aplicado com AIA não apresentou alteração significante na capacidade de englobamento e morte de S. aureus pelos neutrófilos quando aos controles. A integridade celular e atividade de mieloperoxidase nos neutrófilos não foram alteradas pela suplementação com AIA comparadas aos controles. A administração de AIA em baixas doses não mostrou efeito na morte de S. aureus pelos neutrófilos o mesmo também não alterou a integridade celular e a atividade da mieloperoxidase destas células.

Abstract in English
Indole acetic acid is (IAA) a hormone termed auxins and there is a direct correlation between the cytotoxic effect of IAA and the peroxidase activity of the animal cells. Neutrophils present a higher peroxidase activity and the IAA leads to marked ultra structural changes and death on these cells in culture. However studies in vivo show that IAA administration at low doses does not promoting a prooxidant effect on neutrophil and this supplementation to increase of the engulfment of Zymosan particles by these cells. In present study were evaluated the effect of IAA administration in the phagocytic capacity and cellular integrity on rat’s neutrophils from the following parameters: i) phagocytic capacity – engulfment and killing of the Staphylococcus aureus; ii) cellular integrity – plasma membrane integrity, DNA fragmentation and mitochondrial transmembrane potential and iii) myeloperoxidase activity. The IAA treatment imposed did not show another significant alteration in the S. aureus engulfment and killing capacity by neutrophils to compare with controls. The cellular integrity and myeloperoxidase activity in the neutrophils did not have alteration by IAA supplementation to compare with the controls. In conclusion the IAA administration at low doses did not show effective action in S. aureus killing by neutrophils and the same time as did not alter the cellular integrity and myeloperoxidase activity by this cell.
