Abstract in Portuguese
Introdução: O carcinoma de células renais metastático (CCRm) é um tumor altamente agressivo e resistente. Seu tratamento é baseado em terapia alvo molecular e citocinas. Avaliamos os efeitos antineoplásicos do Amblyomin-X, sobre CCR. Métodos: Avaliadas culturas de CCR RENCA e fibroblastos normais NIH/3T3 tratadas ou não com Amblyomin-X. Realizados ensaios de viabilidade celular por MTT e determinação, por citometria de fluxo, da proporção de células em apoptose/necrose; expressão da P-gp; Bad; Bax; Bcl-2; ciclina D1; caspase 3; Ki-67; p53; VEGFR1; citocromo c; análise das fase do ciclo celular; e atividade do proteassoma. Analisamos as populações celulares por microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Empregados testes T e One-way ANOVA para análise estatística. Resultados: O Amblyomin-X demonstrou citotoxicidade em células RENCA por indução de apoptose, diminuição de proliferação celular, inibição do proteassoma e modulação do ciclo celular em G0/G1. Em fibroblastos normais não houve citotoxicidade Conclusão: O Amblyomin-X apresentou efeito antineoplásico em CCR e não exerceu efeito citotóxico em células normais, demonstrando um possível potencial terapêutico no tratamento do CCRm. Estudos futuros deverão confirmar estes resultados.

Abstract in English
Introduction: Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is a highly agressive and resistant tumour. Its treatment is based on targeted therapies and cytokines. We have evaluated the antineoplasic effects of Amblyomin-X on RCC. Methods: RCC (RENCA) and fibroblasts (NIH/3T3) cell cultures treated or not with Amblyomin-X were evaluated. MTT assay was performed to determine cell viability. Apoptosis/necrosis ratio; expression of P-gp; Bad; Bax; Bcl-2; cyclin D1; caspase-3; Ki-67; p53; VEGFR1; cytochrome c; cell cycle analysis and proteasome activity were obtained by flow cytometry. Cellular populations were analised by Scanning Electron Microscopy. Statistical analyses was performed using T-Tests and One-way ANOVA. Results: Amblyomin-X showed cytotoxic activity on RENCA tumor cells. It has induced apoptosis, decreased tumor cell proliferation, targeted the ubiquitinproteasome system and modulated genes related to cell cycle in G0/G1. There was no toxicity on fibroblasts. Conclusion: Amblyomin-X showed antineoplasic effects on RCC cells preserved normal fibroblast cells. There is a potential role of its therapeutic use in mRCC treatment. Future studies should confirm our initial results.
