Platelets and tumor cells interact in a cross-react with plasma proteins via integrin αIIbβ3 and αvβ3 , respectively.The integrin αvβ3 is also strongly stimulated in tumor angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of GST-INS, a recombinant disintegrin from Bothrops insularis venom on events of tumor progression. Under static conditions, GST-INS was able to completely inhibit the adhesion of endothelial cells (HUVECs) and melanoma cells (SK-MEL-28) to platelets compared to control and Aggrastat® (selective inhibitor of integrin αIIbβ3). In addition, GST-INS inhibit TCIPA (platelet aggregation induced by tumor cells) GST-INS also inhibited SK-MEL-28 on matrigel invasion substrate. t.End.1 cells or SK-MEL-28 pre-incubated with GST-INS were not able to form tubules in matrigel substrate. Analysis by confocal microscopy showed that GST-INS binds to integrin αv present in SK-MEL-28 cells. The results suggest that disintegrin can be used as a potential tool in the study and development of antiangiogenic and antimetastatic.

CAPES
This study aimed to evaluate the quality of panels Pinus caribaea var caribaea produced from lignosulfonato based adhesive (LS), urea formaldehyde (UF) and mixtures thereof, variations in time and pressing temperature. For that, were determined the physical and chemical properties of wood and adhesives, the chemical composition of the LS and its chemical bonds by infrared spectroscopy (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and pure in composition with different catalysts , the substitution effect of different percentages of UF by LS in the production of panels on the technological properties. They were also produced panels with modified LS acid. The predetermined nominal density of the panels was 0,70g/cm?. LS used in solid form was diluted to 45% in distilled water. The production of the panels was performed in three steps by varying the press temperature (140, 160 and 180?C). In the first step was applied at 140?C for composite panels 100% UF and thereafter was to be replaced by LS in the proportions of 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100%. In a second step, the first step three treatments with results from inferior mechanical properties were tested at temperatures of 160 to 180?C. In the third stage they were produced composite panels only with LS adhesive and acid in the previous three temperatures. The results of basic and apparent wood density were 0,54 and 0,60g/cm?, respectively. The extractive content of the wood was 1,80%, the macromolecular components present in the cell wall of the wood (cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin) followed the standard for the species, and pH and buffering capacity of the timber. NMR analysis showed the same pattern for lignin derivatives in their chemical bonds. Regarding the physical properties of the boards produced at 140?C, smaller percentages of thickness swelling and water absorption were checked in particleboards produced with 100% UF. For mechanical properties, no significant difference occurred between the panels made with 100% UF panels and modified with up to 40% LS. The panels produced with temperatures of 160 and 180?C generate similar results and in most higher in temperature at 180?C. Since the panels produced with LS and acid had generally improved in all properties, especially those with higher temperature
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo geral avaliar a qualidade de pain?is aglomerados de Pinus caribaea var. caribaea produzidos a partir de adesivo ? base de lignosulfonato (LS), ureia-formalde?do (UF) e suas misturas, sob varia??es de tempo e temperatura de prensagem.

Tamb?m foram produzidos pain?is com LS modificados com ?cido. A densidade nominal preestabelecida dos pain?is foi de 0.70 g/cm?. O LS utilizado na forma s?lida foi dilu?do a 45% em ?gua destilada. A produ??o dos pain?is foi realizada em tr?s etapas variando a temperatura de prensagem (140, 160 e 180?C). Na primeira etapa foi aplicada a temperatura de 140?C para pain?is compostos com 100% de UF e a partir da? houve a sua substitui??o por LS nas propor??es de 20, 40, 60, 80 e 100%. Numa segunda etapa, tr?s tratamentos da primeira etapa com resultados de propriedades mec?nicas inferiores foram testados nas temperaturas de 160 e 180?C. Na terceira etapa foram produzidos pain?is compostos apenas com o adesivo LS e ?cido nas tr?s temperaturas anteriores. Os resultados da densidade b?sica e aparente da madeira foram de 0,54 e 0,60g/cm?, respectivamente. O teor de extrativos da madeira foi de 1,80%, os componentes macromoleculares presentes na parede celular da madeira (celulose, hemicelulose e lignina) seguiram o padr?o para a esp?cie, assim como o pH e a capacidade tamp?o da madeira. A an?lise de RMN mostrou o mesmo padr?o para derivados de lignina em suas liga??es qu?micas. Em rela??o ?s propriedades f?sicas dos pain?is produzidos a 140?C foram verificadas porcentagens menores de inchamento em espessura e absor??o de ?gua nos pain?is produzidos com 100% de UF. Para as propriedades mec?nicas, os tratamentos que tiveram composi??o modificada com at? 40% de LS, n?o apresentaram diferen?a significativa com o tratamento produzido com 100% de UF. Os pain?is produzidos com temperaturas de 160 e 180?C geraram resultados similares e na maioria superiores na temperatura de 180?C. J? os pain?is produzidos com LS e ?cido apresentaram em geral, melhoria em todas as propriedades, com destaque para aqueles com maior temperatura.

Nowadays Dentists spend a lot of their clinical time renewing previously made restorations due to fractures or the occurrence of secondary caries. One of the objectives of this work lies on studying the microbiology associated with secondary caries its histopathology, diagnostic and the problems associated with that diagnostic. It’s also na objective due to its pertinence to study the antibacterial potential of many dental materials in a way that helps the Dentist to take the best course of action in his clinical practice. In the search it was used the follow search engines PubMed, B-on, Science Direct e Sci-elo with the use and combination of different search terms it was select 58 articles with interest in the last 10 years within the Portuguese and English languages. Although the fact the microbiology and histopathology of the secondary carious lesion is well documented there is no scientific agreement when we speak about the diagnostic or treatment of this lesions. Due to the many options of restorative materials and adhesive systems available it becomes imperative that the Dentist has the knowledge about the antibacterial potential of those materials. With this knowledge the Dentist will be able to know the vantages, disadvantages and the potential of the different restorative materials in their role on the prevention of carious lesions improving the survival of the teeth It can be concluded that the dental carie it is not a phenomon exclusive to any type of restorative or lining material at the same time that it is not available in the market capable of preventing it with high success rates. However nowadays it is being pursued the use of materials that offer a better sealing of the dental structure lowering the microleakage consequently dropping the incidence of secondary caries.

Objective: In multiple sclerosis (MS), pro-inflammatory lymphocytes use adhesion molecules to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and accumulate in central nervous system (CNS) lesions. CD4 T lymphocytes polarized into auto-aggressive encephalitogenic TH17 (IL-17 secreting) are known to partake in MS lesion formation. Much less is known about the role of CD8 TC17. Identification of specific surface markers and adhesion molecules expressed by TH17 and TC17 lymphocytes would allow further characterization of these pathogenic subsets and would provide new therapeutic targets in MS. Methodology: We identified MCAM in a proteomic screen of human BBB endothelial cells (ECs) and on a subset of T lymphocytes. We characterized the phenotype and function of MCAM-expressing cells ex vivo, in vitro and in situ using human and mouse material obtained from controls, MS subjects and Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE) animals. Results: MCAM is expressed by human BBB-ECs and by human effector memory CD161+ and CCR6+ T lymphocytes. Both CD4 and CD8 MCAM+ lymphocytes express more IL-17, IL-22, GM-CSF and Gz B than MCAMneg lymphocytes. Moreover, MCAM is strikingly up-regulated in human on CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes during MS relapses, while treatment decreases MCAM expression. In situ, MCAM+ CD8 and CD4 T lymphocytes are present in perivascular infiltrates of MS and EAE CNS specimens, while MCAM expression is up-regulated on BBB-ECs within lesions. In vitro, MCAM+ CD8 T lymphocytes display higher killing capacity of oligodendrocytes, and MCAM blockade reduces CD8 TC17 and CD4 TH17 transmigration across human BBB-ECs. In vivo, depletion of MCAM+ cells from reactivated CD4 T lymphocytes and from CD8 T lymphocytes decreases clinical symptoms in adoptive transfer EAE. Furthermore, expression of MCAM is up-regulated on CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes in the TCR1640 transgenic mice, a model of spontaneous EAE. Finally, blocking MCAM in both MOG35-55-induced and spontaneous primary progressive EAE attenuates chronic neurological deficits. Conclusions: Our data demonstrate that encephalitogenic IL-17-producing lymphocytes with high effector and migratory capacity express MCAM, and that MCAM could serve as a biomarker for MS and a valuable target for the treatment neuroinflammatory conditions.

Aim: The loss of blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity is a hallmark of multiple sclerosis. It is associated with a disorganization of junctional molecules and an upregulation of cell adhesion molecules essential for immune cell transmigration. Identifying novel key players involved in this process is thus crucial for the development of MS therapies aimed at promoting BBB integrity and decreasing leukocytes trafficking into the central nervous system (CNS) during neuroinflammation. In this study, the specific role of the adhesion molecule ALCAM, found on BBB endothelial cells (BBB-ECs) and subsets of leukocytes, was assessed. Methods: We first identified ALCAM as an important molecule upregulated during inflammation in a proteomic screen of in vitro cultured primary human BBB-ECs. In order to study the effects of ALCAM on leukocyte transmigration, both active and passive experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was induced in ALCAM KO and WT animals. The specific role of ALCAM during leukocyte transmigration was also assessed using a modified adhesion assay under sheer-stress, in which leukocytes flow across a capillary-like channel lined with a monolayer of BBB-ECs under physiological pressure. Results: Using the modified adhesion assay, we demonstrated that anti-ALCAM blocking antibodies significantly reduce the rolling and the adhesion of human CD14+ monocytes interacting with primary human BBB-ECs, as well as prevent their overall decrease in velocity. Concurrently, we also observed a significant reduction in the migration of ex vivo CD14+ monocytes, across a monolayer of human BBB-ECs. These monocytes also migrated more rapidly and in higher number across meningeal endothelial cells, as compared to BBB-ECs. While similar observations were made using ex vivo CD4+ T lymphocytes, we failed to reproduce these results using in vitro activated Th1 and Th17 cells. In opposition to our in vitro data, ALCAM KO mice developed a more severe active EAE associated with a significant increase in perivascular infiltration of pro-inflammatory lymphocytes (Th1/Th17) and M1 monocytes/macrophages, as compared to WT controls. In addition, EAE transfer experiments, in which ALCAM KO mice received WT MOG-reactivated splenocytes, suggested that the pathophysiology observed in active EAE was linked to the absence of ALCAM on BBB-ECs. Phenotypic characterization of un-immunized ALCAM KO mice revealed a reduced expression of BBB junctional proteins. Further analysis showed that ALCAM is indirectly associated with tight junction molecules of the BBB-ECs, which explains the increased CNS parenchymal blood vessel in vivo permeability in ALCAM KO animals. Correlating with these data, primary culture of mouse brain BBB-ECs was shown to possess a lower TEER and an increased permeability coefficient. Conclusion: Collectively, our data provide evidence of the implication of ALCAM in monocyte transmigration, but not Th1 or Th17 lymphocyte diapedesis across CNS endothelium. Our results also point to a biologically crucial function of ALCAM in maintaining BBB integrity by acting as an adaptor molecule between tight junctions and the cytoskeleton. As such, the absence of ALCAM at the level of BBB-ECs indirectly promotes the recruitment of pro-inflammatory leukocytes in the CNS of EAE animals by increasing the BBB vessels permeability.

Multiple sclerosis is an idiopathic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. It is characterized by the formation of focal perivascular lesions and demyelination of the surrounding area, which appear concomitantly to a massive immune cell infiltration and disruption of the blood brain barrier. Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis is the animal model most extensively used for the study of multiple sclerosis. Unfortunately, this model does not mimic many aspects of the human disease. The goal of this project is to further the characterization of a new transgenic model of spontaneous experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, the TCR1640 model, and to validate it as a relevant tool for the study of multiple sclerosis physiopathology and treatment. The TCR1640 mouse possesses a transgenic T cell receptor which recognizes a myelin peptide and triggers an autoimmune response against endogenous myelin in the central nervous system. In situ and in vitro observations have led to the identification of early changes which appear at the neurovascular unit in presymptomatic TCR1640 animals. This early disruption of blood brain barrier homeostasis is linked to the establishment of a proinflammatory immune profile in the periphery. Animals at the chronic stage show sustained inflammation of the central nervous system parenchyma and massive leukocyte infiltration, compared to animals in acute phase of disease. An in vivo experiment has allowed modulating the disease by treatment with a multiple sclerosis-approved therapy, in wild type mice which had received reactivated CD4+ T cells from TCR1640 animals. Finally, the implication of new cell adhesion molecules in the development and maintenance of spontaneous experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis has been suggested by in vitro study of melanoma cell adhesion molecule (CD146) and activated leucocyte cell adhesion molecule (CD166). The results obtained in this study suggest that the TCR1640 model is a valuable asset in the study of neuroimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis. It could also be used to validate new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of this disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a national priority, with nearly six million Americans affected at an annual cost of $200 billion and no available cure. A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying AD is crucial to combat its high and rising incidence and burdens. Most cases of AD are thought to have a complex etiology with numerous genetic and environmental factors influencing susceptibility. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have confirmed roles for several hypothesized genes and have discovered novel loci associated with disease risk. However, most GWAS-implicated genetic variants have displayed modest individual effects on disease risk and together leave substantial heritability and pathophysiology unexplained. As a result, new paradigms focusing on biological pathways have emerged, drawing on the hypothesis that complex diseases may be influenced by collective effects of multiple variants – of a variety of effect sizes, directions, and frequencies – within key biological pathways. A variety of tools have been developed for pathway-based statistical analysis of GWAS data, but consensus approaches have not been systematically determined. We critically review strategies for genetic pathway analysis, synthesizing extant concepts and methodologies to guide application and future development. We then apply pathway-based approaches to complement GWAS of key AD-related endophenotypes, focusing on two early, hallmark features of disease, episodic memory impairment and brain deposition of amyloid-β. Using GWAS and pathway analysis, we confirmed the association of APOE (apolipoprotein E) and discovered additional genetic modulators of memory functioning and amyloid-β deposition in AD, including pathways related to long-term potentiation, cell adhesion, inflammation, and NOTCH signaling. We also identified genetic associations to amyloid-β deposition that have classically been understood to mediate learning and memory, including the BCHE gene and signaling through the epidermal growth factor receptor. These findings validate the use of pathway analysis in complex diseases and illuminate novel genetic mechanisms of AD, including several pathways at the intersection of disease-related pathology and cognitive decline which represent targets for future studies. The complexity of the AD genetic architecture also suggests that biomarker and treatment strategies may require simultaneous targeting of multiple pathways to effectively combat disease onset and progression.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is characterized by perivascular infiltrations of immune cells and by demyelination in the central nervous system (CNS). These two hallmarks of the disease are associated with the disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The recruitment of monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells, the so-called myeloid antigen-presenting cells (APCs), in the CNS through the BBB is thought to play a crucial role in the initiation and the persistence of the disease. Therefore the identification of the molecular mechanisms involved in the migration of myeloid APCs into the CNS is considered a valid therapeutic option in MS. Nerve injury-induced protein (Ninjurin)-1, a novel adhesion molecule that mediates homophilic binding, was found to be expressed in the vascular endothelium of the BBB following a proteomic screen of human BBB-associated proteins. Ninjurin-1’s expression increases during an inflammatory context in primary cultures of endothelial cells of the BBB (BBB-ECs) and on ex vivo and in vitro generated myeloid APCs. In addition, infiltrating APCs in human MS lesions and in the CNS of the murine model of MS, the mice affected with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), express high levels of Ninjurin-1. Using an experimental model of the BBB, the neutralization of Ninjurin-1 specifically restricts the migration of monocytes across the BBB-ECs without affecting the recruitment of lymphocytes or the permeability of the BBB-ECs. Finally, EAE mice treated with a Ninjurin-1 blocking peptide have reduced disease severity and a reduced infiltration of myeloid APCs in the CNS, as compared to the control group. Our results show that Ninjurin-1 is an adhesion molecule of the BBB involved in the recruitment of myeloid APCs to the CNS and is also a potential therapeutic target to dampen CNS inflammatory processes, as occurs in MS.
