- Evidences of Herbal Medicine-Derived Natural Products Effects in Inflammatory Lung Diseases(2016) SANTANA, Fernanda Paula R.; PINHEIRO, Nathalia M.; MERNAK, Marcia Isabel B.; RIGHETTI, Renato F.; MARTINS, Milton A.; LAGO, Joao H. G.; LOPES, Fernanda D. T. Q. dos Santos; TIBERIO, Iolanda F. L. C.; PRADO, Carla M.Pulmonary inflammation is a hallmark of many respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and acute respiratory syndrome distress (ARDS). Most of these diseases are treated with anti-inflammatory therapy in order to prevent or to reduce the pulmonary inflammation. Herbal medicine-derived natural products have been used in folk medicine and scientific studies to evaluate the value of these compounds have grown in recent years. Many substances derived from plants have the biological effects in vitro and in vivo, such as flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids. Among the biological activities of natural products derived from plants can be pointed out the anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antiplatelet, antitumor anti-allergic activities, and antioxidant. Although many reports have evaluated the effects of these compounds in experimental models, studies evaluating clinical trials are scarce in the literature. This review aims to emphasize the effects of these different natural products in pulmonary diseases in experimental models and in humans and pointing out some possible mechanisms of action.
- Structurally Related Monoterpenes p-Cymene, Carvacrol and Thymol Isolated from Essential Oil from Leaves of Lippia sidoides Cham. (Verbenaceae) Protect Mice against Elastase-Induced Emphysema(2016) GAMES, Ellen; GUERREIRO, Marina; SANTANA, Fernanda R.; PINHEIRO, Nathalia M.; OLIVEIRA, Emerson A. de; LOPES, Fernanda D. T. Q. S.; OLIVO, Clarice R.; TIBERIO, Iolanda F. L. C.; MARTINS, Milton A.; LAGO, Joao Henrique G.; PRADO, Carla M.Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by irreversible airflow obstruction and inflammation. Natural products, such as monoterpenes, displayed anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities and can be used as a source of new compounds to COPD treatment. Our aim was to evaluate, in an elastase-induced pulmonary emphysema in mice, the effects of and underlying mechanisms of three related natural monoterpenes (p-cymene, carvacrol and thymol) isolated from essential oil from leaves Lippia sidoides Cham. (Verbenaceae). Methods: Mices received porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) and were treated with p-cymene, carvacrol, thymol or vehicle 30 min later and again on 7th, 14th and 28th days. Lung inflammatory profile and histological sections were evaluated. Results: In the elastase-instilled animals, the tested monoterpenes reduced alveolar enlargement, macrophages and the levels of IL-1 beta, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-17 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and collagen fibers, MMP-9 and p-65-NF-kappa B-positive cells in lung parenchyma (p < 0.05). All treatments attenuated levels of 8-iso-PGF2 alpha but only thymol was able to reduced exhaled nitric oxide (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Monoterpenes p-cymene, carvacrol and thymol reduced lung emphysema and inflammation in mice. No significant differences among the three monoterpenes treatments were found, suggesting that the presence of hydroxyl group in the molecular structure of thymol and carvacrol do not play a central role in the anti-inflammatory effects.
conferenceObject Effects Of Chronic Treatment With Cape, A Specific Nf Kappa-B Inhibitor, Compared To Rho Quinase Inhibitor Or Corticosteroid On Airway Hyperresponsiveness In Mice With Chronic Allergic Pulmonary Inflammation(2016) TIBERIO, I. F.; SOUZA, F. C. R.; SANTOS, T. M.; ARISTOTELES, L. R.; RIGHETTI, R. F.; SARAIVA-ROMANHOLO, B.; PRADO, C. M.; COSTA, F. M. A.; LEICK, E. A.; MARTINS, M. A.- The Plant-Derived Bauhinia bauhinioides Kallikrein Proteinase Inhibitor (rBbKI) Attenuates Elastase-Induced Emphysema in Mice(2016) MARTINS-OLIVERA, Bruno Tadeu; ALMEIDA-REIS, Rafael; THEODORO-JUNIOR, Osmar Aparecido; OLIVA, Leandro Vilela; NUNES, Natalia Neto dos Santos; OLIVO, Clarice Rosa; BRITO, Marlon Vilela de; PRADO, Carla Maximo; LEICK, Edna Aparecida; MARTINS, Milton de Arruda; OLIVA, Maria Luiza Vilela; RIGHETTI, Renato Fraga; TIBERIO, Iolanda de Fatima Lopes CalvoBackground. Elastase mediates important oxidative actions during the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, few resources for the inhibition of elastase have been investigated. Our study evaluated the ability of the recombinant plant derived Bauhinia bauhinioides Kallikrein proteinase Inhibitor (rBbKI) to modulate elastase-induced pulmonary inflammation. Methods. C57Bl/6 mice were given intratracheal elastase (ELA group) or saline (SAL group) and were treated intraperitoneally with rBbKI (ELA-rBbKI and SAL-rBbKI groups). At day 28, the following analyses were performed: (I) lung mechanics, (II) exhaled nitric oxide (ENO), (III) bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and (IV) lung immunohistochemical staining. Results. In addition to decreasing mechanical alterations and alveolar septum disruption, rBbKI reduced the number of cells in the BALF and decreased the cellular expression of TNF-alpha, MMP-9, MMP-12, TIMP-1, eNOS, and iNOS in airways and alveolar walls compared with the ELA group. rBbKI decreased the volume proportion of 8-iso-PGF2 alpha, collagen, and elastic fibers in the airways and alveolar walls compared with the ELA group. A reduction in the number of MUC-5-positive cells in the airway walls was also observed. Conclusion. rBbKI reduced elastase-induced pulmonary inflammation and extracellular matrix remodeling. rBbKI may be a potential pharmacological tool for COPD treatment.
- Sakuranetin reverses vascular peribronchial and lung parenchyma remodeling in a murine model of chronic allergic pulmonary inflammation(2016) SAKODA, Camila Pivari Pedroso; TOLEDO, Alessandra Choqueta de; PERINI, Adenir; PINHEIRO, Nathalia Montouro; HIYANE, Meire Ioshie; GRECCO, Simone dos Santos; TIBERIO, Iolanda de Fatima Lopes Calvo; CAMARA, Niels Olsen Saraiva; MARTINS, Milton de Arruda; LAGO, Joao Henrique Ghilardi; RIGHETTI, Renato Fraga; PRADO, Carla MaximoBackground and purpose: Asthma is a disease of high prevalence and morbidity that generates high costs in hospitalization and treatment. Although the airway is involved in the physiopathology of asthma, there is also evidence of the importance of vascular and lung parenchyma inflammation and remodeling, which can contribute to the functional pulmonary alterations observed in asthmatic patients. Our aim was to evaluate treatment using sakuranetin, a flavone isolated from the twigs of Baccharis retusa (Asteraceae), on vascular and lung parenchyma alterations in an experimental murine model of asthma. Methods: Male BALB/c mice were subjected to a sensitization protocol with ovalbumin for 30 days and were treated with or without sakuranetin (20 mg/kg/mice) or dexamethasone (5 mg/kg/mice); then, the lungs were collected for histopathological analysis. We evaluated extracellular matrix remodeling (collagen and elastic fibers), inflammation (eosinophils and NF-kB) and oxidative stress (8-isoprostane) in the pulmonary vessels and lung parenchyma. The thickness of the vascular wall was quantified, as well as the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels. Results: We demonstrated that sakuranetin reduced the number of eosinophils and elastic fibers in both the pulmonary vessels and the lung parenchyma, probably due to a reduction of oxidative stress and of the transcription factor NF-kB and VEGF levels in the lung. In addition, it reduced the thickness of the pulmonary vascular wall. The treatment had no effect on the collagen fibers. In most of the parameters, the effect of sakuranetin was similar to the dexamethasone effect. Conclusions and implications: Sakuranetin had anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, preventing vascular and distal parenchyma changes in this experimental model of asthma.
