Abstract in Portuguese
Úlceras crônicas necessitam de um longo tempo de tratamento, resultando em alto custo com cuidados médicos. A busca por novas substâncias terapêuticas cicatrizantes, atóxicas e de fácil acesso a população ganhou importância nos últimos anos. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a eficácia da biomembrana de quitosana-alginato na cicatrização de úlceras cutâneas em ratos. Foram utilizados 40 ratos Wistar machos submetidos a duas úlceras dorsais por punch (1,5cm diâmetro), ambas tratadas com soro fisiológico (grupo SF) e biomembrana de quitosana-alginato (grupo BQA), por 2, 7, 14 e 21 dias pós-lesão e foram removidas somente no dia do sacrifício. Todos os animais receberam curativo oclusivo de gaze e esparadrapo. Foi calculado o índice de cicatrização das úlceras e por histomorfometria foi quantificado o infiltrado inflamatório, vasos sanguíneos, fibroblastos e colagênese, utilizando o software ImageJ. Por dosagem bioquímica foi quantificada a colagênese (OHP) e a participação neutrofílica (MPO). BQA aumentou o recrutamento de células inflamatórias na lesão no 2° dia (p=0,0134). No 7º dia, observou-se importante redução de MPO em relação ao 2º dia no grupo BQA (p=0,0326), enquanto SF apresentou-se superior a BQA (p=0,0043). BQA aumentou o recrutamento de fibroblastos no 7° (p=0,0275) e no 14° dia (p=0,0086), apresentou maior colagênese no 2º (p=0,0042) e 21º dias (p=0,0249), porém no 14º dia foi inferior a SF (P=0,0010). O grupo BQA no 7° dia apresentou-se estatisticamente mais reepitelizado que o grupo SF (p=0,0006). Sendo assim, a biomembrana de quitosana-alginato regulou a fase inflamatória e estimulou a colagênese, acelerando a cicatrização de úlceras em ratos.

Abstract in English
Chronic wounds require a long treatment time, resulting in high-cost medical care. Therefore, the search for new natural therapeutic healing substances, non-toxic and easy access to population has gained importance in recent years. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of chitosan-alginate biomembrane on wound healing in rats. Two excisional wounds were performed by punch (1.5 cm diameter) on the dorsal of 40 male Wistar rats. Both wounds of each rat were treated with chitosan-alginate biomembrane (BQA group) and treated only with saline (SF group) for 2, 7, 14 and 21 days post-injury. All wounds received occlusive dressing with gauze and tape and the biomembranes were removed only in the sacrificed day. It was evaluated the re-epithelialization by wound healing rate and by histomorphometry was quantified the inflammatory cells, fibroblasts, blood vessels and collagenesis by ImageJ software. Myeloperoxidase assay (MPO) was performed to evaluate the neutrophilic infiltrate on injured tissue, and hydroxyproline assay (OHP) to evaluate the collagenesis. BQA increased the recruitment of inflammatory cells to wound, different from SF (p=0,0134) on 2nd day. On 7th day, regarding to MPO, BQA showed an important reduction relation to 2nd day (p=0,0326), whereas SF showed higher MPO than BQA (p=0,0043). BQA increased the recruitment of fibroblasts to wound on 7th (p=0,0275) and 14th (p=0,0086), showed higher collagenesis than SF on 2nd (p=0,0042) and 21st days (p=0,0249), however on 14th day SF was higher (p=0,0010). BQA showed more pronounced reepithelialization on 7th day than SF (p=0,0006). Chitosan-alginate biomembrane regulated the inflammatory phase and stimulated the collagenesis, accelerating the wound healing on rats.
