Produção de anticorpos
Abstract in Portuguese
As Hsp são utilizadas nos tratamentos de autoimunidades e tumores, mas seus mecanismos de ação não foram esclarecidos. Para verificar o efeito da Hsp65 no envelhecimento, analisamos leucócitos em ♀ HIII envelhecidas e, utilizando-se camundongos F1, investigou-se a influência genética na susceptibilidade. ♀HIII velhas apresentaram aumento de linfócitos T ativados e B no baço, e de APC no sangue. A sobrevida em ♀F1H injetadas foi menor e semelhante aos dados obtidos em ♀HIII. A produção de IgG aumentou nos ♂F1 tratados, e a de IgM foi maior nos animais inoculados independente do sexo. Nos híbridos, apenas ♀F1 envelhecidas apresentaram maior porcentagem de linfócitos T CD4 e CD8 ativados e de células CD11c. A Hsp65 induz, in vivo, ativação imune em ♀HIII e ♀F1 velhas; a susceptibilidade parece ser ligada a um efeito do sexo feminino e à influência genética da linhagem HIII.

Abstract in English
Hsp are used for the development of autoimmunities and tumors treatments, however, the mechanism of action has not been fully enlightened. To verify the effect of Hsp65 in the aging, we analyzed aged ♀HIII leukocytes; using F1 hybrid mice we studied the genetic influence in Hsp65 susceptibility. Aged ♀HIII presented increase of T and B lymphocytes in the spleen and augmented APC in the blood. The survival of aged ♀F1H was reduced, similarly to aged ♀HIII previous results. The anti-Hsp65 IgG production increased in ♂F1 males, and the IgM was greater in all groups regardless of gender. In hybrid mice, only ♀F1 mice presented increased percentage of CD4 and CD8 activated T cells and of CD11c cells. The Hsp65 induces in vivo, activation of the immune system in aged ♀HIII and ♀F1 mice; the susceptibility to the protein can be given by specific gender effects and the genetic influence of the HIII strain.
