Interação entre temperatura corporal e respostas ventilatórias frente à hipercapnia em três espécies de roedores

Abstract in Portuguese
O roedor semifossorial recém descrito, Proechimys yonenagae, nativo da Caatinga, foi comparado com P. iheringi, um roedor de superfície, da Mata Atlântica, quanto às interações entre temperatura corporal (Tc), ventilação (VE) e consumo de O2 (VO2), durante hipercapnia (5 ou 10% de CO2). Ratos Wistar também foram usados para avaliar a participação da via do óxido nítrico (NO) na hipotermia e hiperventilação induzidas por hipercapnia. AVE foi medida por pletismografia, a Tb, inserindo um sensor no reto do animal e o VO2, utilizando um analisador de O2. Nos ratos Wistar, as medidas foram realizadas antes e após a injeção intraperitoneal do inibidor da NO sintase Nω-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA) e após subseqüente exposição à 5% de CO2. Durante a inalação de ar, a VE não diferiu entre os três roedores, a Tc de ratos Wistar foi maior em relação à de P. yonenagae e os valores de VO2 de P. yonenagae e P. iheringi foram significativamente menores do que o dos ratos Wistar. A hipercapnia causou hiperventilação nas três espécies, hipotermia em P. yonenage e ratos Wistar, mas nenhuma alteração de VO2 foi observada nos três roedores. Uma queda significativa de Tc foi obtida após injeção de L-NNA (40 mg-kg-1), acompanhada por uma redução do VO2. A Hipercapnia não afetou a hipotermia causada por L-NNA, o qual também não modificou a resposta ventilatória à 5% de CO2. Comparações entre as duas espécies silvestres sugerem que P. yonenagae apresenta poucas adaptações fisiológicas à hipercapnia das tocas. Ambas as respostas geradas pela hipercapnia, hiperventilação e hipotermia, parecem não compartilhar o NO como mediador, embora, a via L-arginina-NO participe, independentemente, da função respiratória normal e da termorregulação.

Abstract in English
The recently described burrow-dwelling Proechimys yonenagae from the Brazilian semiarid caatinga was compared to P. iheringi from the Brazilian rain forest of Mata Atlantica in terms of interactions between body temperature (Tb), ventilation (VE) and oxygen consumption (VO2) during hypercapnia (5 or 10% CO2). Wistar rats were also used to assess the participation of the nitric oxide (NO) pathway in hypercapnia-induced hypothermia and hyperventilation. VE was measured by plethysmography, Tb by inserting a probe into the colon, and VO2 by a close-flow system. ln the Wistar rats, measurements were performed before and after NO synthase bocker Nω-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA) injection (intraperitoneally) and after 5% CO2 inhalation. During air breathing, VE did not differ between the three rodents, Wistar Tb was elevated compared to P. yonenagae, and the VO2 values of P. yonenagae and P. iheringi were significantly lower than those of Wistar rats. Hypercapnia caused hyperventilation in the three species, hypothermia in P. yonenage and Wistar rats, but no change in VO2 was observed in any of the rodents. A significant drop in body temperature was measured after L-NNA (40 mg-kg-1), accompanied by a reduction in VO2. Hypercapnia had no effect on L-NNA-induced hypothermia and the ventilatory response to hypercapnia was not changed by L-NNA. Comparisons of the two spiny rat species suggest little adaptation of P. yonenagae to hypercapnia in burrows. The two responses elicited by hypercapnia, i.e., hyperventilation and hypothermia, do not share NO as a common mediator. However, the L-arginine-NO pathway participates, although in an unrelated way, in respiratory function and thermoregulation.
