- Airway remodeling is reversed by aerobic training in a murine model of chronic asthma(2015) SILVA, R. A.; ALMEIDA, F. M.; OLIVO, C. R.; SARAIVA-ROMANHOLO, B. M.; MARTINS, M. A.; CARVALHO, C. R. F.The aim of this study was to investigate if the aerobic training (AT) reverses airway remodeling (AR) in an asthma model. BALB/c were divided into four groups: control (unsensitized and untrained); ovalbumin (OVA: sensitized and untrained); AT (unsensitized and trained) and OVA+AT. Allergic inflammation was induced with intraperitoneal and OVA inhalation. AT (low intensity; 5x/week; 60min/session) was performed at 7, 15, and 30 days. Leukocyte counting in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; the expression of IL-5, eotaxin, RANTES, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1); AR features (airway smooth muscle, epithelium thickness, collagen and elastic fibers, mucus production); and AR inducers (transforming growing factor-beta, osteopontin, vascular endothelial growth factor). OVA induced an increase in leukocyte airway migration and increased AR features (P<0.05). After 7 days, AT reversed the OVA-induced eosinophil and macrophage airway migration, the expression of IL-5, eotaxin, RANTES, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and all AR inducers. However, total reversion of the AR features and inducers and airway inflammation occurred only after 15 days of AT compared with the OVA groups (P<0.05) and the effects were maintained until the 30th day. AT reverses AR after 15 days and this effect is preceded by the inhibition of leukocyte migration and occurs simultaneously with the reduction in the expression of inflammatory mediators and AR inducers.
- Comparison of the Effects of Aerobic Conditioning Before and After Pulmonary Allergic Inflammation(2015) SILVA, Ronaldo Aparecido da; ALMEIDA, Francine Maria; OLIVO, Clarice Rosa; SARAIVA-ROMANHOLO, Beatriz Mangueira; PERINI, Adenir; MARTINS, Milton Arruda; CARVALHO, Celso Ricardo FernandesThe aim of this study is to compare the effects of aerobic conditioning (AC) before (ACBS) and after (ACAS) allergic sensitization. BALB/c mice were divided into two main groups: ACBS and ACAS. Each groups was divided into subgroups: control (nonsensitized/nontrained), AC (nonsensitized/trained), ovalbumin (OVA) (sensitized/nontrained), AC + OVA (trained/sensitized), and OVA + AC (sensitized/trained). Sensitization was induced using OVA and AC performed in treadmill (moderate intensity). We examined IgE and IgG(1) levels, eosinophil counting, expression of Th1 (interleukin (IL)-2, IFN-alpha) and Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-5, IL-13), IL-10, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and airway remodeling. IgE and IgG(1) were decreased only when exercise was performed before sensitization (ACBS); however, there was a decrease of eosinophils, Th2 cytokines, VEGF, and airway remodeling and increase in IL-10 in either ACBS or ACAS groups. Our results demonstrate that aerobic conditioning reduces Th2 response before and after sensitization by increasing IL-10 while the production of anaphylactic antibodies is reduced only when exercise is performed before sensitization.

conferenceObject Aerobic training reverses the inhibition in the expression of glucocorticoid receptors and decreases the Th2 allergic inflammation in asthma model(2013) SILVA, Ronaldo Aparecido; ALMEIDA, Francine Maria; OLIVO, Clarice Rosa; SARAIVA, Beatriz Mangueira; MARTINS, Milton Arruda; CARVALHO, Celso Ricardo Fernandes- Low dose of chlorine exposure exacerbates nasal and pulmonary allergic inflammation in mice(2018) GENARO, Isabella Santos de; ALMEIDA, Francine Maria de; HIZUME-KUNZLER, Deborah Camargo; MORIYA, Henrique Takachi; SILVA, Ronaldo Aparecido; CRUZ, Joao Carlos Goncalves; LOPES, Renan Boeira; RIGHETTI, Renato Fraga; VIEIRA, Rodolfo de Paula; SAIKI, Mitiko; MARTINS, Milton Arruda; TIBERIO, Iolanda de Fatima Lopes Calvo; ARANTES-COSTA, Fernanda Magalhaes; SARAIVA-ROMANHOLO, Beatriz MangueiraWork-exacerbated asthma (WEA) is defined as preexisting asthma that worsens with exposure to irritants [e.g., chlorine (Cl-2) derivatives] in the workplace. The maximum allowable concentration in the workplace of Cl-2 exposure is 3 mg/m(3) (described in OSHA). We investigated in an experimental asthma model in mice the effects of a single exposure to a sodium hypochlorite dose with this allowed chlorine concentration and a tenfold higher dose. Acute chlorine exposure at 3.3 mg/m(3) in the OVA-sensitized group increased eosinophils in the peribronquial infiltrate, cytokine production, nasal mucus production and the number of iNOS positive cells in the distal lung compared to only sensitized mice. The exposure to a higher dose of 33.3 mg/m(3) in the OVA-sensitized group resulted in an increase in respiratory system elastance, in the total and differential numbers of inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-17 in the lungs, eosinophils in peribronquial infiltrate and mucus content in nasal compared to non-exposed and sensitized animals. In this asthma model, chorine exposures at an allowable dose, contributed to the potentiation of Th2 responses. The functional alterations were associated with increased iNOS and ROCK-2 activation in the distal lung.
