Item Estudos dos mecanismos envolvidos nos efeitos analgésico e anti-inflamatório de dois candidatos a protótipos de fármacos - LQFM 002 e 015(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2011-03-31) Lino, Roberta Campos; Costa, Elson Alves; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2607893423583912The anti-inflammatory drugs available in the market, anti-inflammatory non steroidal and steroidal, are widely used, are effective but are still far from being ideal drugs because they have several side effects (eg. gastrointestinal, renal, etc.). In this paper, two new molecules synthesized by the Laboratory of Medicinal Chemistry Pharmaceutical-UFG LQFM-015 and LQFM-002, are evaluated for their ability antiinflammatory and antinociceptive. Previous studies have shown inhibitory activity on phospholipase A2 of LQFM-015 and LQFM-002. LQFM-015 was synthesized from the metabolite 4-nerolidylcathecol, which also inhibits the enzyme phospholipase A2 (PLA2). In this study, treatment with LQFM-015 (100, 200 and 400 μmol/kg, p.o.) reduced the writhings numbers, but without alters the parameters of open field, rotarod and in the barbituric-induced sleep test. The antinociceptive action was confirmed in the second phase (inflammatory pain) on formalin-induced pain test, whereas the three doses (100, 200 and 400 μmol/kg, p.o.) reduced the time used for reactivity to pain. Treatment with LQFM-015 (100, 200 and 400 μmol/kg, p.o) also reduced edema in rat paw edema model in mice. This anti-inflammatory activity was confirmed by the decreased the cell migration (26%) and the activity of the enzyme myeloperoxidase (56%) with LQFM-015 (155 μmol/kg, p.o.) in the pleurisy model in mice. LQFM-002 is a derivative of pyrazole that in previous studies was capable of reducing PLA2 activity in vitro, reducing cell migration and the concentration of Evans blue in pleural exudate. In this study we evaluated the anti-inflammatory and/or the antinociceptive activity LQFM-002 in vivo. In the model of pain induced by acetic acid treatment (LQFM-002 200 μmol/kg, p.o.) reduced the number of writhing and pain reactivity in the test of pain induced by formalin in the first and second phase. Treatments with LQFM-002 (400 and 800 μmol/kg, p.o.) increased the pain latency in hot plate, also showed changes in the parameters of open field suggestive of an anxiolytic action. In the barbituric-induced sleep LQFM-002 800 μmol/kg, p.o., increased the sleep time is in agreement with an anxiolytic action seen in the open field, but without alters the parameters rota-rod test. Treatment with LQFM-002 reduced the concentration of TNF-α by approximately 25% when compared with vehicle group. The antiinflammatory action of this molecule may be due to reduction of TNF-α. In conclusion LQFM-015 showed anti-inflammatory action that may be related to the reduction of myeloperoxidase activity and LQFM-002 had an anti-inflammatory action possibly due decreased in the levels of TNF-α and analgesic activity involving central mechanisms.Item Atividade analgésica, anti-inflamatóriae vasorelaxante de dois derivados pirazólicos: 5-[1-(4- fluorfenil)-1H-pirazol-4-IL]-2H-tetrazola(LQFM 020) e 5- [1-(2-fluorofenil)-1H-pirazol-4-IL]-2H-tetrazola (LQFM 039)(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2014-10-31) Oliveira, Lanussy Porfiro de; Costa, Elson Alves; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2607893423583912Inflammation is a complex process that aims to protect the body eliminating the harmful agent and to promote tissue repair is characterized by classic signs: pain, heat, redness and swelling as a result of failure to resolve the inflammatory process may occur loss of function. Control of pain and inflammation leads to the search for new drugs both analgesic and antiinflammatory drugs with good efficacy to aid in the treatment of these deseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the pharmacological effects of two pyrazole derivatives. In acute nociception tests LQFM 020 (9, 17.5 and 35 mg/kg) and LQFM 039 (17.5, 35 and 70 mg/kg) reduced the number of writhing dose dependent manner to 53, 48 and 35; and 57, 52, 42, respectively, while the control group the number of writhes was 88. In the formalin test this antinociceptive effect was confirmed by the reduction in time reactivity to pain in both test phases, the time in the control group was 78 and 72s in the first phase and 150 and 128s in the second phase, with LQFM for 020 and 039 LQFM in the first phase was to reduce 50 and 47s and the second phase to 97 and 74s respectively. In bending the tail the groups of mice treated with LQFM 020 and LQFM 039 test were not able to increase the latency to thermal stimulus demonstrated that the analgesic effect does not involve central mechanisms. Furthermore, the results of the enzymatic activity of cyclooxygenase (COX) and phospholipase (PLA2) in vitro tests indicated no part of the mechanism of action involved in the activity of these compounds. In vascular reactivity tests LQFM 020 promoted vasorelaxant effect presenting maximum effect (Emax) of 93% in aortic preparations with endothelium and maximum effect (Emax) of 91% without endothelium . LQFM 039 also promoted vasorelaxant effect with maximum effect (Emax) of 80% when tested in preparations with endothelium and maximum effect (Emax) of 76% without endothelium, given this result, we investigated the mechanism of action of these compounds. Our results showed that LQFM 020 and LQFM 039 demonstrated the involvement of NO/cGMP pathway and suggest also the involvement of sensitive Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane voltage.Item Atividade anti-inflamatória e antinociceptiva de 4-((1-fenil-1h-pirazol-4-il) metil) piperazina-1-carboxilato: um novo derivado piperazínico(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2015-02-25) Silva, Daiany Priscilla Bueno da; Costa, Elson Alves; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2607893423583912; Costa, Elson Alves; Vanderlinde, Frederico Argollo; Menegatti, RicardoThe piperazines derivatives are an important class of chemical compounds with a broad spectrum of biological activities such as anti-infectious activity, anti-carcinogenic, anti-nociceptive, anti-hypertensive, anxiolytic and vasorelaxant and are attractive candidates for development of new analgesics and anti-inflammatories drugs. The aim of this study was evaluate the effects of piperazine compound LQFM-008 (4-[(1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl) methyl]1-piperazine carboxylic acid ethyl ester) in acute tests of nociception and inflammation and characterize that the mechanisms are involved in the antinociceptive effect. For this study were used male mice weighing between 25 and 35g. In the formalin test, the treatments with LQFM-008 at doses of 48 and 96 μmol/kg (p.o.) reduced the licking time at both neurogenic and inflammatory phases of this test. The anti-inflammatory activity was confirmed, since LQFM-008 at doses of 48 and 96 μmol/kg (p.o.) reduced the formation of paw edema induced by carrageenan at all hours of the test and LQFM-008 in pleurisy test at dose of 96 μmol/kg (p.o.) also reduced leukocyte migration and protein exudation. In the tail-flick and the hot plate tests, the treatment with LQFM-008 at doses of 48 and 96 μmol/kg (p.o.) increased the latency to thermal stimulus, suggesting the involvement of central mechanisms in the antinociceptive effect LQFM-008. The pre-treatment of animals with naloxone (7.5 μmol/kg s.c.) reversed the antinociceptive effect of LQFM-008 only in the first phase of the formalin test, however, the pre-treatment with NAN-190 (1.3 μmol/kg i.p.) and PCPA (500 μmol/kg i.p.) reversed the antinociceptive effect of LQFM-008 in both phases of the test. Thus, the piperazine derivative LQFM-008 exhibit antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities in acute test and the antinociceptive effect is resulting from a central action with involvement of opioid receptors and the serotonin pathway.Item Avaliacão da atividade anti-inflamatória do composto LQFM 147, um candidato a protótipo de farmaco(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2016-09-10) Vasconcelos, Patricia Antônia; Costa, Elson Alves; http://buscatextual.cnpq.br/buscatextual/visualizacv.do?id=K4788642U8; Costa, Elson Alves; Martins, José Luis Rodrigues; Menegatti, RicardoInflammation is a body protection process in response to tissue damage in order to eliminate the offending agent and promote tissue repair. It is characterized by the appearance of the classic signs such as pain, heat, redness and edema, which may occur due to loss as a result of poor resolution of the inflammatory process. The use of antiinflammatory drugs to control inflammation is widely used, but have many side effects, making necessary the search for new drugs with fewer side effects and more effective. The objective of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity and / or antinociceptive the LQFM 147 compound using acute tests of nociception and inflammation, to characterize the mechanisms involved in such effects. For this study, male mice were used, weighing between 30 and 35g. Treatment with LQFM 147 at doses of 25, 50 and 100 mg / kg V.O. reduced the number of writhes in a dose-dependent in 16.79; 32.97 and 46.04%, respectively. In the formalin test, treatment with LQFM 147 at a dose of 50 mg / kg V.O. It reduced the time of reactivity to pain testing only the inflammatory phase 43.38%. The anti-inflammatory activity was confirmed, since the treatment with LQFM 147 at a dose of 50 mg / kg V.O. reduced formation of paw edema induced by carrageenan at all hours of the test, reduced migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes 40.82% in pleurisy test. Treatment with LQFM 147 was able to reduce the activity of myeloperoxidase in 31.54% and TNF-α levels of 65.51%. To obtain the results the group treated with LQFM 147 was compared to the control group treated with vehicle 10 ml / kg v.o .. The data obtained demonstrate that LQFM 147 has anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activity involving the reduction of migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and reduction in TNF-α levels.
