Abstract in Portuguese
INTRODUÇÃO: O transplante de pulmão é parte fundamental no tratamento das doenças terminais do pulmão, constituindo uma modalidade terapêutica eficaz para pacientes com doença pulmonar incapacitante, progressiva e em estágio final. No entanto, as drogas imunossupressoras usadas para evitar a rejeição do enxerto podem causar efeitos colaterais em diversos tecidos. O sistema mucociliar, presente nas vias aéreas, é um dos principais mecanismos de defesa do trato respiratório e pode ser alterado por ação das drogas imunossupressoras. Desta forma, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o sistema mucociliar traqueobrônquico de ratos submetidos a dois esquemas de terapia tríplice imunossupressora. MÉTODOS: Foram utilizados 90 ratos machos Wistar distribuídos em 3 grupos conforme o tratamento: controle (C) = solução salina; terapia 1 (TI) = tacrolimus + micofenolato de mofetil + prednisona; terapia 2 (TII) = ciclosporina + azatioprina + prednisona. Após o período de tratamento (7, 15 ou 30 dias), os animais foram sacrificados e realizadas as seguintes medidas: transportabilidade do muco (TM), frequência de batimento ciliar (FBC), quantificação de muco neutro e ácido, velocidade de transporte mucociliar (VTMC), e contagem total e diferencial de células no lavado broncoalveolar (LBA). RESULTADOS: A TM não foi afetada pelas terapias em nenhum dos tempos estudados. Ambas as terapias causaram significativa redução da FBC dos animais tratados por 7 e 15 dias. A produção de muco neutro foi menor nos animais tratados com a TI por 7, 15 e 30 dias. Porém, com a TII, essa redução ocorreu apenas aos 7 dias. Por outro lado, a quantidade de muco ácido foi significativamente maior em todos os animais tratados com as duas terapias. Todos os animais tratados com as terapias imunossupressoras apresentaram redução da VTMC nos três tempos. Houve aumento do número total de células e de macrófagos e neutrófilos no grupo TI em 7 dias. CONCLUSÕES: Ambas as terapias imunossupressoras foram prejudiciais ao transporte mucociliar das vias aéreas de ratos, tanto pela redução da FBC e da VTMC, quanto pela maior produção de muco ácido e menor produção de muco neutro. A TI foi mais prejudicial ao sistema mucociliar em comparação à TII

Abstract in English
INTRODUCTION: Lung transplantation is an essential part in the treatment of terminal lung diseases, providing an effective therapeutic modality for patients with disabling, progressive and final stage lung disease. However, the immunosuppressant drugs used to prevent graft rejection may cause side effects in several tissues. The mucociliary system, present in the airways, is a major defense mechanism of the respiratory tract and can be changed by action of immunosuppressive drugs. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the tracheobronchial mucociliary system of rats submitted to two triple immunosuppressive therapy regimens. METHODS: We used 90 male Wistar rats divided into 3 groups according to treatment: control (C) = saline solution; therapy 1 (TI) = tacrolimus + mycophenolate mofetil + prednisone therapy; therapy 2 (TII) = cyclosporine + azathioprine + prednisone. After the period of treatment (7, 15, or 30 days), the animals were sacrificed and the following measures taken: mucus transportability (MT), ciliary beating frequency (CBF), quantification of neutral and acid mucus, mucociliary transport velocity (MCTV), and total and differential counting of cells in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). RESULTS: MT was not affected by treatments in any of the periods studied. Both therapies have caused significant reduction of CBF of animals treated for 7 and 15 days. The neutral mucus production was lower in animals treated with TI for 7, 15 and 30 days. But with TII, this reduction occurred only at 7 days. Moreover, the amount of acid mucus was significantly higher in all animals treated with both therapies. All animals treated with immunosuppressive therapies had reduced MCTV at the three times. There was an increase of total cells and macrophages and neutrophils in the TI group in 7 days. CONCLUSIONS: Both immunosuppressive therapies were harmful to the mucociliary clearance of the airways of rats, either by reducing the CBF and MCTV, as by the increased production of acid mucus and decreased production of neutral mucus. TI was more harmful to the mucociliary system in comparison to TII
