- Th17/Treg-Related Intracellular Signaling in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Comparison between Local and Systemic Responses(2021) LOURENCO, Juliana D.; TEODORO, Walcy R.; BARBEIRO, Denise F.; VELOSA, Ana Paula P.; SILVA, Larissa E. F.; KOHLER, Julia B.; MOREIRA, Alyne R.; V, Marcelo Aun; SILVA, Isadora C. da; FERNANDES, Frederico L. A.; NEGRI, Elnara M.; GROSS, Jefferson L.; TIBERIO, Iolanda F. L. C.; ITO, Juliana T.; LOPES, Fernanda D. T. Q. S.Th17/Treg imbalance plays a pivotal role in COPD development and progression. We aimed to assess Th17/Treg-related intracellular signaling at different COPD stages in local and systemic responses. Lung tissue and/or peripheral blood samples were collected and divided into non-obstructed (NOS), COPD stages I and II, and COPD stages III and IV groups. Gene expression of STAT3 and -5, ROR gamma t, Foxp3, interleukin (IL)-6, -17, -10, and TGF-beta was assessed by RT-qPCR. IL-6, -17, -10, and TGF-beta levels were determined by ELISA. We observed increased STAT3, ROR gamma t, Foxp3, IL-6, and TGF-beta gene expression and IL-6 levels in the lungs of COPD I and II patients compared to those of NOS patients. Regarding the systemic response, we observed increased STAT3, ROR gamma t, IL-6, and TGF-beta gene expression in the COPD III and IV group and increased IL-6 levels in the COPD I and II group. STAT5 was increased in COPD III and IV patients, although there was a decrease in Foxp3 expression and IL-10 levels in the COPD I and II and COPD III and IV groups, respectively. We demonstrated that an increase in Th17 intracellular signaling in the lungs precedes this increase in the systemic response, whereas Treg intracellular signaling varies between the compartments analyzed in different COPD stages.

Q. S.To describe the progression of parenchymal remodeling and metalloproteinases gene expression in earlier stages of emphysema, mice received porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) instillation and Control groups received saline solution. After PPE instillation (1, 3, 6 hours, 3 and 21 days) we measured the mean linear intercept, the volume proportion of types I and III collagen, elastin, fibrillin and the MMP-1, -8, -12 and -13 gene expression. We observed an initial decrease in type I (at the 3rd day) and type III collagen (from the 6th hour until the 3rd day), in posterior time points in which we detected increased gene expression for MMP-8 and -13 in PPE groups. After 21 days, the type III collagen fibers increased and the type I collagen values returned to similar values compared to control groups. The MMP-12 gene expression was increased in earlier times (3 and 6 hours) to which we detected a reduced proportion of elastin (3 days) in PPE groups, reinforcing the already established importance of MMP-12 in the breakdown of ECM. Such findings will be useful to better elucidate the alterations in ECM components and the importance of not only metalloelastase but also collagenases in earlier emphysema stages, providing new clues to novel therapeutic targets.

- The deleterious effects of smoking in bone mineralization and fibrillar matrix composition(2020) BARBOSA, Alexandre Povoa; LOURENCO, Juliana Dias; JUNQUEIRA, Jader Joel Machado; FRANCA, Silva Larissa Emidio de; MARTINS, Janaina S.; OLIVEIRA JUNIOR, Manoel Carneiro; BEGALLI, Isadora; VELOSA, Ana Paula Pereira; OLIVO, Clarice Rosa; BASTOS, Thiago Bernardes; JORGETTI, Vanda; PAULA, Vieira Rodolfo de; TEODORO, Walcy Rosolia; LOPES, Fernanda D. T. Q. S.Introduction: This study aimed to verify the effects of cigarette smoke exposure in bone mineralization and fibrillar matrix composition as well as in bone healing after tibial fracture induction. Methods: C57Bl/6 Mice were assigned according to exposure and surgery: C room air; F room air and tibia open osteotomy; CS cigarette smoke; FCS cigarette smoke and tibia open osteotomy. In order to study fracture healing we performed, under anesthesia, a bone injury through a tibial shaft osteotomy. Bone samples were obtained to evaluate bone histomorphometry, trabecular morphology and volume, trabecular collagen types composition and presence of inflammatory cytokines and growth factors. Results: CS exposure significantly reduced the thickness of bone trabeculae associated with decrease in mineralizing surface and mineral deposition rate, leading a lower bone formation rate and longer mineralization time. Resorption surface and osteoclastic surface were greater in the CS group, attesting increased resorptive action. There was a decrease in type I collagen deposition and genes expression in the CS and FCS groups compared to C group and in contrast there was an increase in type V collagen deposition and genes expression in the CS, FC and FSC groups compared to C group. Also, CS exposure induced a decrease in bone forming cytokines and an increase in inflammatory associated cytokines, and these changes were intensified under fracture conditions. Conclusion: Cigarette smoke exposure alters bone matrix composition and worsens bone mineralization, leading to bone fragility by increasing collagen V synthesis and deposition and impairing collagen I fibril forming and assembling. And these deleterious effects contributed to the worsening in fracture healing after tibia osteotomy.
