Item Imunofenotipagem e avaliação quantitativa de linfócitos circulantes de bovinos da raça curraleiro(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2008-03-03) MORAES, Júlia de Miranda; FIORAVANTI, Maria Clorinda Soares; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8772502020076257; BRITO, Luiz Augusto Batista; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3212353728321020The Curraleiro cattle are extremely docile and resistant to infectious diseases and parasites. They may be used in exploration of low-quality pastures, without great investments, when other breeds could show a low productivity or even survival difficulties. This genetic potential runs risk to extinction due to its replace by more productive breeds. The Curraleiro cattle resistence to illness is popularly known and many works has been published about it, although its immunologic system physiology is completely unknown. Such features are plausible reasons for the preservation of this potentially genetic resource. So, the mean aim of this study was to establish an immunological profile by marking and quantification of T and B lymphocytes in Curraleiro breed with immunocytochemistry. Thus, it was used 116 bovines, male and female, with different ages from two farms situated at Goiás State, Brazil. The animals were allotted in groups according to age, sex and origin. Blood samples were collected and processed in accordance with immunocytochemistry standard technique using lymphoid markers species-specific, anti-CD3 (MM1A BoCD3) and anti-LB (LCTB16A clone B-B14), for T and B lymphocytes counting, respectively. All procedures were accomplished at Veterinary School, Federal University of Goiás, Brazil. The data were submitted to descriptive statistics and then to Kruskall Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. The results showed decreased levels of leukocytes, lymphocytes, T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes along the age advance. Absolute values of leukocytes, lymphocytes and T lymphocytes were higher in males than females. None of the evaluated parameters were affected by differences of the management carried out at two farms.Item Lesões de isquemia arteriovenosa e reperfusão em jejuno de equinos: imunoistoquímica de proteínas de junção e histopatologia(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2007-12-31) NASCIMENTO, Aline Machado Rapello do; ARAÚJO, Eugênio Gonçalves de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3919777570059928; BRITO, Luiz Augusto Batista; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3212353728321020To evaluate whether complete arteriovenous ischemia followed by reperfusion of mesenteric blood flow aggravates lesions involving small intestine of horses, β--catenin and occludin expressions were measured in jejune epithelia of seven equines, without definite breed. The animals had been submitted to aseptic ventral midline celiotomy and five jejune segments collected corresponding to a baseline segment, a five minutes segment subjected to ischemia, and three segments collected after being subjected to five, sixty and one hundred and twenty minutes of tecidual reperfusion, respectively. Experimentally induced lesions created by total arteriovenous occlusion followed by reperfusion were similar to naturally acquired lesions, as much in the period of ischemia as in the aggravation of the injuries observed during reperfusion. Changes that occur when ischemic intestine is reperfused are progressive, and include mucosal, submucosal, and serosal edema; polymorphonuclear and mononuclear cell infiltrates; and alterations in vascular patterns. Imunohistochemistry analyses have shown strong staining baseline segments for β-catenin in all animals and its progressive lack of staining during ischemia and reperfusion treatments. That indicates progressive lack of intercellular adherence. Similar results of specific decreases of total expression of Occludin, a tight junction protein, were observed. This protein is involved in regulating the movement of solutes in the paracellular pathway and also plays an important role in the maintenance of cell polarity. The reduction of expressions of both intercellular proteins measured directly demonstrates β-catenin injury due to progression of edema during ischemia and its aggravation during reperfusion and also shows an increase of the permeability of paracelular pathways and its related consequences to degradation of Ocludina.Item Sulfato de vincristina no tratamento do tumor venéreo transmissível frente à caracterização citomorfológica(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2009-12-18) SIMERMANN, Nívia Faria Silva; MOURA, Veridiana Maria Brianezi Dignani de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8773201078957745; FIORAVANTI, Maria Clorinda Soares; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8772502020076257; BRITO, Luiz Augusto Batista; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3212353728321020The transmissible venereal tumor (TVT) is among the most common cancers in dogs in Brazil. This is a sexually transmitted cancer through a mechanism of transplantation of viable tumor cells, it has high incidence among dogs of both sexes in reproductive age, with high occurrence in areas of high concentration of dogs with poor control of reproduction. The diagnosis made in the routine of clinical medicine is usually based only on clinical symptoms and the chemotherapy of choice has been the vincristine sulfate. This drug has been shown in most cases a good response to treatment with complete regression of the tumor, but there are also cases where the tumor appears resistant to treatment. This study aimed to demonstrate the practicality of using fine needle aspiration cytology as a method of diagnosis and cytomorphologic classification, being effective and safe as well as measuring the response of different cytomorphologic groups forward to treatment with vincristine sulfate. Also evaluating the clinical response, hematologic and biochemical tests using serum liver function (ALT) and renal (creatinine), in the therapy instituted. Were evaluated and treated 18 dogs of both sexes, carrying TVT, which received six consecutive weeks during the administration of vincristine sulfate in the dosage of 0.03 mg / kg administered intravenously. The animals underwent weekly prior to medication, clinical assessment, haematological and biochemical. It was observed in this study that cytological examination is a simple technique, minimally invasive and painless, and a safe method that provides no risk to the patient's life and does not require the use of sophisticated equipment, sedation or anesthesia for their achievement. Animals carrying the TVT plasmacytoid type, had higher rate of tumor resistance to treatment in relation to established groups and linfocytic mixed, showing a greater resistance to treatment with this group of vincristine sulfate. The efficiency of response to treatment was presented by the linfocytic group. The vincristine sulfate showed few side effects, low hematological, hepatic and renal toxicity, it is therefore an effective option in the control of transmissible venereal tumor in not resistant cases.
