    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.

    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.

    Influence of a hypercholesterolemic diet on the collagen composition of the bladder wall extracellular matrix in rats
    (2012) NUNES, R. L. V.; BRUSCHINI, H.; UTSUNOMIA, K.; SILVEIRA, M. A.; TEODORO, W. R.; LEITE, K. R. M.; SROUGI, M.
    Purpose: To investigate the effects of hypercholesterolemic diet on the collagen composition of urinary bladder wall. Materials and methods: Forty-five female 4-week-old Wistar rats were divided into three groups: 1) control group fed a normal diet (ND); 2) model of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) group fed a ND; and 3) group fed a HCD (1.25% cholesterol). Total serum cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and body weight were assessed at baseline. Four weeks later, group 2 underwent a surgical procedure resulting in a partial BOO, while groups 1 and 3 underwent a sham similar surgical procedure. Six weeks later, all animals had their bladders removed; serum cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels and body weights were measured. Morphological and morphometric analysis was performed by Picrosirius staining and collagen types I and III were identified by immunofluorescence. Statistical analysis was completed and significance was considered when p<0.05. Results: Rats fed an HCD exhibited a significant increase in LDL cholesterol levels (p<0.001) and body weight (p=0.017), when compared to the groups fed a ND during the ten-week study period. Moreover, the HCD induced morphological alterations of the bladder wall collagen, regarding thin collagen fibers and the amounts of type III collagen when compared to the control group (p=0.002 and p=0.016, respectively), resembling the process promoted in the BOO model. Conclusions: A hyper-cholesterolemic diet in Wistar rats promoted morphological changes of the bladder types of collagen, as well as increases in body weight and LDL cholesterol.

    The effects of conjugated estrogen, raloxifene and soy extract on collagen in rat bones
    (2012) CONDI, F. L. F.; SOARES JR., J. M.; TEODORO, W. R.; VELOSO, A. P.; PARRA, E. R.; SIMOES, M. de Jesus; BARACAT, E. C.
    Objective To evaluate the action of conjugated equine estrogen, raloxifene and isolated or combined genistein-rich soy extracts on collagen fibers in the bones of oophorectomized rats. Materials and methods Seventy female rats received testosterone propionate (0.1 mu g/g) on the 9th day after birth. At 6 months of age, the rats were administered the vehicle (propylene glycol, 0.5 ml/day), and ten of the rats were randomly chosen to comprise the non-oophorectomized control group (GI). The other 60 rats were ovariectomized and randomized into six groups of ten as follows: GII, vehicle; GIII, conjugated equine estrogen (CEE), 50 mu g/kg/day; GIV, raloxifene (RAL), 0.75 mg/kg/day; GV, genistein-rich soy extract (GSE), 300 mg/kg/day; GVI, CEE + GSE, 50 mu g/kg/day + 300 mg/kg/day; and GVII, CEE + RAL, 50 mu g/kg/day + 0.75 mg/kg/day. Three months after surgery, the drugs were administered for 60 consecutive days. All rats were euthanized, and their left tibiae were removed for histological routine. The histological sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, and picrosirius for evaluating bone microarchitecture. Types I and II collagen fibers were analyzed by immunofluorescence. Data analysis was carried out with ANOVA and Tukey's test. Results Collagen reduction was significant in the GIII animals when compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the thickness of collagen fibers among the groups. There was a greater quantity of type III collagen in GVI than in the other groups. Conclusion Our data indicate that conjugated equine estrogen improves bone quality because it increases the quantity of type I collagen while reducing the quantity of thin collagen fibers. In addition, the combination of CEE and raloxifene or genistein-rich soy extract is not as efficient as CEE itself to improve bone quality.

    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.

    Experimental diabetes modulates collagen remodelling of joints in rats
    (2012) ATAYDE, Sandra A.; YOSHINARI, Natalino H.; NASCIMENTO, Dafne P.; CATANOZI, Sergio; ANDRADE, Priscila C.; VELOSA, Ana Paula P.; PARRA, Edwin R.; PASSARELLI, Marisa; NAKANDAKARE, Edna R.; CAPELOZZI, Vera L.; TEODORO, Walcy R.
    The aim of this study was to evaluate extracellular matrix components in articular cartilage, ligaments and synovia in an experimental model of diabetes. Young Wistar rats were divided into a streptozotocin-induced (STZ; 35 mg/kg) diabetic group (DG; n=15) and a control group (CG; n=15). Weight, blood glucose and plasma anti-carboxymethyllysine were measured 70 days after STZ infusions. Knee joints, patellar ligaments, and lateral and medial collateral ligaments were isolated and stained with hematoxylineosin and Picrosirius. The total collagen content was determined by morphometry. Immunofluorescence was employed to evaluate types I, III, and V collagen in ligaments and synovial tissues and types II and XI collagen in cartilage. Results: Higher blood glucose levels and plasma anti-carboxymethyllysine were observed in DG rats when compared to those in CG rats. The final weight was significantly lower in the DG rats than in the CG rats. Histomorphometric evaluation depicted a small quantity of collagen fibers in ligaments and articular cartilage in DG rats, as well as increased collagen in synovial tissue. There was a decrease in cartilage proteoglycans in DG rats when compared with CG rats. Immunofluorescence staining revealed an increase of collagen III and V in ligaments, collagen XI in cartilage, and collagen I in synovial tissue of DG rats compared with CG rats. Conclusion: The ligaments, cartilage and synovia are highly affected following STZ-induced diabetes in rats, due the remodeling of collagen types in these tissues. This process may promote the degradation of the extracellular matrix, thus compromising joint function. Our data may help to better understand the pathogenesis of joint involvement related to diabetes.

    Vulvar lichen sclerosus: A misnomer for an entity with decreased fibrillar components and increased amorphous components in extracellular matrix remodeling
    (2012) PARRA, E.; GODOY, C. A. Pires de; FEITOSA, V. L. Correia; TEODORO, W.; VELOSA, A. P.; CAPELOZZI, V. L.
    Objective: The hyalinization of subepidermal skin is one of the histopathological characteristics of the vulvar lichen sclerosus (VLS). It was found that patients with VLS present autoantibodies against the extracellular matrix protein 1 (ECM-1) and the deficiency of this protein is responsible for the development of a different disease, the Lipoid Proteinosis. This disease shows a similar histology with VLS and has better characterized morphology. Method: We analyzed 20 VLS patients biopsies and the control group was composed by 20 vulva samples from authopsy. The biopsies and control samples were analysed by immunofluorescence for collagen I, III and V and th total collagen fibers by Picrosirius staining. The elastic fibers were stained with Verhoeff and the proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans with Periodic Acid-Schiff and Alcian Blue. Collagen quantification was performed through image analysis. Results: It was observed a significant reduction in all studied collagens as well as in the elastic fibers. On the other hand, the proteoglycans were increased in the VLS biopsies. Conclusion: This study did not found an increase in collagen sclerosis that would justify the term used for the LS. It was observed a predominance of the edema area probably caused by the increase of glycoproteins as in lipoid proteinosis.

    Effect of topical clay application on the synthesis of collagen in skin: an experimental study
    (2012) VALENTI, D. M. Z.; SILVA, J.; TEODORO, W. R.; VELOSA, A. P.; MELLO, S. B. V.
    Background. Clay is often used in cosmetic treatments, although little is known about its action. Aim. To evaluate the effect of topical clay application on the histoarchitecture of collagen fibres in rat skin. Methods. Animals received a daily application of clay and retinoic acid (RA) 0.025% to the dorsal skin over 7 and 14 days, under vaporization at 37 degrees C for 40 min. Control skin was not vaporized. Samples from each region were excised, and stained with picrosirius red for collagen evaluation. Results. Seven days after clay treatment, an increase in the number of collagen fibres was observed in treated skin compared with control skin (51.74 +/- 1.28 vs. 43.39 +/- 1.79%, respectively, P < 0.01), whereas RA did not alter the collagen level (45.66 +/- 1.10%). Clay application over 14 days did not induce a further increase in skin collagen, whereas treatment with RA did (58.07 +/- 1.59%; P = 0.001 vs. control). Conclusion. Clay application promotes an increase in the number of collagen fibres, which may account for its beneficial effects.
