Title in Portuguese
Interferências do campo elétrico alternado externo em células tumorais e normais
Keywords in Portuguese
Apoptose
Campo elétrico alternado
Caspase-3
Ciclo celular
Citotoxicidade
Melanoma
Abstract in Portuguese
Os campos elétricos alternados de frequência intermediária (10 KHz a 1MHz) e baixa intensidade têm efeitos inibitórios sobre o crescimento de várias linhagens celulares de tumores humanos e murinos. O objetivo geral do presente trabalho é conhecer os efeitos biológicos da aplicação externa de Campos Elétricos Alternados de intensidades de 10 V e 5 V nas frequências de 200kHz, 1Mhz e 2Mhz; em culturas de células de melanoma murino (B16F10) e fibroblastos humanos normais (FN1), durante 24 horas. Foram estudados os efeitos biológicos antiproliferativos e pró-apoptóticos através das seguintes análises: Citometria de Fluxo para identificar a distribuição das populações celulares nas fases do ciclo celular, Colorimétrico MTT para avaliar a viabilidade celular e Peroxidação Lipídica para avaliar a produção de radicais livres lipídicos poliinsaturados. Os resultados mostraram que em fibroblastos humanos normais o campo elétrico alternado induziu efeito antiproliferativo, indutor de necrose e apoptose, porém em menor efeito tóxico quando comparado às células de melanoma (B16F10), principalmente na frequência de 200 kHz. Por outro lado, na frequência de 2MHz e intensidade 10V, as células de melanoma presentes no sobrenadante e aderentes expressaram diferencialmente número de células mortas por apoptose (Anexina-V) e caspase-3 fosforilada. Os diferentes efeitos produzidos entre as duas linhagens estudadas atentam para o fato de que a compreensão dos mecanismos biofísicos da regulação do reparo e da proliferação celular envolve fenômenos celulares e vias de sinalização altamente complexas.

Abstract in English
Electric fields of alternating intermediate frequency and low intensity have inhibitory effects on the growth of various tumor cell lines. The objective of this study was to evaluate the biological effects of external application of external alternating electric field (CEAE) intensities of 10 V and 5 V in the frequency 200kHz, 1MHz and 2MHz; in cultured murine melanoma cells (B16F10) and human fibroblasts normal (FN1). We studied the antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic by flow cytometry to identify the distribution of cell populations in the phases of the cell cycle, Colorimetric MTT to evaluate cell viability and lipid peroxidation to evaluate the production of free radicals lipid acids. The results showed that in fibroblasts (FN 1) the normal CEAE induced antiproliferative effect, inducing apoptosis and necrosis, but at a lower cytotoxic potential when applied to melanoma cells (B16F10), mainly in the frequency of 200 kHz. Moreover, the frequency of 2MHz and intensity 10V, the melanoma cells in supernatant and the members expressed differentially number of dead cells by apoptosis and caspase-3 phosphorylated. The different effects between the two strains studied to undermine the fact that understanding the biophysical mechanisms of regulation of repair and cell proliferation involves cellular phenomena and signaling pathways highly specific and complex.
