Title in Portuguese
Análise da ação do ACTH e do peptídeo N-terminal da POMC na proliferação, morte celular e na expressão das proteínas de genes de resposta secundária na supra-renal de ratos hipofisectomisados ou tratados com dexametasona.
Keywords in Portuguese
Apoptose
Ciclinas
Fatores de crescimento de fibroblastos
Hipofisectomia animal
Hormônios hipofisários
Proliferação celular
Abstract in Portuguese
Diferentes modelos experimentais têm sido utilizados para estudar a ação trófica do ACTH na supra-renal, e as respostas a esses estímulos parecem ser importantes para proliferação e morte celular in vivo. Essa hipótese foi testada utilizando ratos hipofisectomisados ou tratados com dexametasona, e através da reação de IH avaliamos: 1-a incorporação de BrdU nas diferentes zonas do córtex adrenal estimuladas com ACTH, FGF2 ou N-POMC; 2-se a resposta mitogênica ocorre via receptor MC2R, utilizando um antagonista do ACTH; 3-o número de células do córtex adrenal que entra em apoptose, e se o ACTH recupera o número de células viáveis. Os resultados obtidos mostram que: 1-o ACTH apresenta ação mitogênica nas três zonas do córtex adrenal; 2-a resposta do ACTH ocorre via MC2R; 3-O FGF2 apresenta ação mitogênica apenas nas zonas internas do córtex adrenal; 4-o N-POMC apresenta ação mitogênica na zona glomerulosa; 5-A hipofisectomia induz apoptose nas três zonas do córtex e é prevenida pelo ACTH; 6-a modulação da ciclina E e a CDKIp27 pode estar envolvida na indução do ACTH.

Abstract in English
Different experimental models have been used to study the trophic action of ACTH in adrenal, which seems to be important in proliferation and cell death in vivo. This hypothesis was tested using hypophysectomized or dexamethasone treated rats, and through IHC we evaluate: 1-the BrdU incorporation in different adrenal cortex zone after i.p. of ACTH, FGF2 or N-POMC, 2-if the mitogenic response occurs through the MC2R, using for it an antagonist of ACTH, 3-the number of adrenocortical cells which entered into apoptosis, and if ACTH recover this number. The results show that: 1-ACTH is mitogenic in three zone of adrenal cortex; 2-The mitogenic response of ACTH occurs through MC2R; 3-Mitogenic action of FGF2 occurs in the inner zones of adrenal cortex; 4- The N-terminal POMC peptide induces proliferation in the zone glomerulosa; 5- ACTH prevents apoptosis in the adrenal cortex resulting from the surgery, 6- The alteration of cyclin E and CDKI p27 could be a likely molecular mechanism of the effects induced by ACTH.
