Resumo
A dermatite atópica canina (DAC) apresenta uma complexa relação entre a inflamação e a barreira cutânea. O envolvimento de resposta imunológica do tipo Th2 e Th1, bem como produção de citocinas pró inflamatórias têm sido relacionadas com o padrão inflamatório, sinais clínicos e a gravidade da doença. As células-tronco mesenquimais (CTM) possuem características imunomoduladoras, sendo altamente sugeridas para reduzir a produção de citocinas inflamatórias e melhorar a qualidade de vida de animais atópicos. Visando comparar o efeito das CTM em cães atópicos, realizamos um estudo randomizado, simples-cego, com período inicial de placebo em seis cães. Foram comparados os perfis séricos inflamatórios por ELISA, além de resposta clínica por CADESI-04 e escala analítica de prurido. Ao final do estudo, os cães melhoraram significantemente o padrão clínico por CADESI-04 (p < 0,001) e pela escala de prurido (p < 0,05), contudo não houve mudança no perfil inflamatório das citocinas. Foi observado reações adversas em dois animais do estudo. Concluindo, o uso de CTM pode ser eficaz na melhora da sintomatologia relacionada a doença.
Canine atopic dermatitis (CAD) presents a complex relationship between inflammation and cutaneous barrier. The involvement of Th2 and Th1 type immune responses, as well as the production of proinflammatory cytokines have been related to inflammatory pattern, clinical signs and severity of disease. Mesenchymal stem cells (MTCs) have immunomodulatory characteristics and are highly suggested to reduce the production of inflammatory cytokines and to improve quality of life of atopic animals. In order to compare effects of MTCs on atopic dogs, we performed a randomized, simple-blind, placebo-controlled study in 6 dogs. Inflammatory serum profiles were compared by ELISA, in addition to clinical response by CADESI-04 and analytical pruritus scale. At the end of the experiment, dogs significantly improved the clinical standard for CADESI-04 (p <0.001) and pruritus scale (p <0.05), however, there was no change in the inflammatory cytokine profile. Adverse reactions were observed in two study animals. Concluding that the use of CTM may be effective in improving symptoms related to disease
