conferenceObject Increased decorin and type V collagen in SSc pulmonary fibrosis(2012) TEODORO, W.; VELOSA, A. P.; MARCELINO, A.; MARTIN, P.; CARRASCO, S.; GOLDENSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, C.; PARRA, E.; YOSHINARI, N.; CAPELOZZI, V.Objective: To evaluate COL V and decorin expression in pulmonary tissue and to characterize biochemical profile of COLV from lung fibroblasts culture from SSc patients. Method: We evaluated COL V and decorin expression and tridimensional reconstruction (3D) of 6 patients with SSc without pulmonary hypertension that underwent surgical lung biopsy and as control was obtained lung fragments from 6 normal individuals who died from trauma. COL V amount in lung sections was evaluated with immunofluorescence. To biochemical characterization of COL V from lung fibroblasts culture was used quantitative immunoblot. Results: It was found that the structure of COLV fibers was distorted and strongly thickened in lung tissue from SSc patients compared with thin fibers pattern in the healthy controls. Decorin was distributed around COL V fibrils in the bronchovascular interstitium and vascular walls. Histomorphometric analysis of SSc lung demonstrated increased expression of both COL V and decorin when compared to the control (p<0.01). The semiquantitative imunoblot detected an increased high molecular weight COLV fraction in patients when compared to the control. Conclusion: The over expression and unusual organization of COLV fibers with biochemical changes associated to increased decorin indicates that matrix signalization pathway is involved in COLV fibrillogenesis process in SSc pulmonary fibrosis.conferenceObject Collagen V induces differentiation of rabbit adipose tissue-derived stem cells in chondrocyte-like phenotype(2012) TEODORO, W.; CRUZ, I. Brindo da; VELOSA, A. P.; CARRASCO, S.; GOLDENSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, C.; FULLER, R.; PARRA, E.; CAPELOZZI, V.Objective: Stimulated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have capacity of differentiation in many cell types. It is being used in degenerative diseases treatment protocols. We evaluated the collagen V (COL V) and collagen XI (COL XI) influence in the differentiation of rabbits adipose tissue-derived MSCs in a chondrocyte-like cell phenotype. Method: MSCs isolated of New Zealand rabbits adipose-tissue were maintained in culture by 4 weeks. COLV, COLXI and COLV/XI (10μg/ml) were added to culture during 72 h. The cells aggregates were stained with Toluidine blue, Alcian blue and Picrosirius. Chondrocyte-like phenotype was confirmed by immunofluorescence to CD34, vimentin and collagens I, II and III. Results: MSCs stimulated with COLV expressed proteoglicans and collagen, when compared with COLXI and COLV/XI and control. In the presence of COLV, MSCs was capable to increase collagen II expression confirming its chondro-cyte-like cell phenotype. In contrast, MSCs cultured with COLXI and COLV/XI express collagen I and III. Conclusion: The data suggest that COLV may facilitate the differentiation of rabbit adipose tissue-derived stem cells into a chondrocyte-like phenotype. Further studies are urged in order to evaluate the influence of COLV in the ability of chondrocytes to remodel osteoarthritic joint surface at ultrastructural and molecular levels.conferenceObject Unusual distribution of Type V collagen isoforms determines the cutaneous fibrosis in scleroderma(2016) TEODORO, W. Rosolia; MORAIS, J.; VELOSA, A. P. Pereira; MARTIN, P.; CARRASCO, S.; CAMARGO, L.; GOLDENSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, C.; CAPELOZZI, V.conferenceObject Fibrogenesis failure of type V collagen observed in pulmonary and cutaneous fibroblast culture reinforce the pathogenic participation of this collagen in the pathway of systemic sclerosis(2012) TEODORO, W. R.; MORAIS, J.; MARTIN, P.; VELOSA, A. P. P.; CARRASCO, S.; SOUZA, R. B. C.; KATAYAMA, M. L.; GOLDEINSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, C.; PARRA, E. R.; CAPELOZZI, V. L.; YOSHINARI, N. H.Introduction: Unusual type V collagen (COLV) accumulation was demonstrated in systemic sclerosis (SSc) by our group. In this regard, this study analyzed tridimensional reconstruction (3D), biochemical and molecular profile of COLVα1 and COLVα2 chains in pulmonary and cutaneous fibroblasts culture from patients with SSc. Materials and Methods: Pulmonary and cutaneous fibroblasts for culture were obtained from 7 patients with SSc and from six controls respectively. COLV 3D reconstruction was performed by confocal microscopy. COLVα1 and COLVα2 gene expression was performed by RT-PCR and COLV protein expression by immunoblotting. Results: COL V 3D reconstruction showed distorted and strongly thickened fibers with irregular bundles resulting in a dense network in lung and skin fibroblast cultures from SSc patients compared to the thin fibers from fibroblast controls. Collagen quantification showed significant increased COLV fiber expression in SSc cutaneous and pulmonary fibroblasts (P<0.01) compared with the respective controls. In the same way, molecular evaluation demonstrated an increased significance (P=0.05) of COLVα1 and COLVα2 mRNA expression in cutaneous and pulmonary fibroblasts from SSc patients to that of control groups. The immunoblotting analysis demonstrated the increased weight of the molecular COLV chains. Conclusion: COLV overexpression and an unusual organization of these fibers including molecular and biochemical changes, suggest an interference process of the COLV fibrillogenesis in patients with SSc, reinforcing the participation of this collagen in SSc pathogenesis and open new therapeutic perspectives for these patients.conferenceObject Interstitial lung disease in systemic sclerosis is associated with autoimmunity to alpha 1(V) chain of type V collagen(2019) VELOSA, A.

Brindo da; GOLDENSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, C.; FULLER, R.; VELOSA, A. P. P.; CARRASCO, S.; PARRA, E. R.; CAPELOZZI, V. L.; YOSHINARI, N. H.; TEODORO, W. R.Introduction: Among a variety of biological functions, including an anti-inflammatory effect, collagen V (COLV) regulates the diameter of collagen fibers with an important role in the development of functional tissues. Therefore the aim of this study was to evaluate, in rabbits, the influence of COLV in the induction of differentiation of adipose tissue-derived stem cells to a chondrocyte-like cell phenotype. Materials and Methods: New Zealand Rabbits were used as source of adipose tissues for the isolation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Preliminary characterization of mesenchymal lineage and differentiation into chondrocyte-like phenotype was confirmed by immunofluorescence analysis using antibodies to collagens I, II (polyclonals), III and CD34 (monoclonals). After 2 and 3 weeks in culture with and without COLV, the cell aggregates were fixed for 2 h in 4% formaldehyde, dehydrated with ethanol, washed with xylene and embedded in paraffin. Different sections were cut and stained with Toluidine blue, Alcian blue and Picrosirius red respectively. Results: Proteoglicans and collagen fibers were observed by assessment of the different stains, confirming the collagen expression. Remarkably, compared to control cultures, in the presence of COLV timulation, MSCs were capable to increase production of collagen I and II, confirming its chondrocyte-like cell phenotype. Conclusion: We conclude that COLV may facilitate the differentiation of rabbit adipose tissue-derived stem cells into a chondrocyte-like phenotype and this result can be considered to be candidate for therapies.conferenceObject COLVa2 a Biomarker of Vasculopathy in Scleroderma?(2013) MORAIS, J.; MARTIN, P.; CAMARGO, I.
