Resumo
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis e P. lutzii são fungos dimórficos, agentes etiológicos da paracoccidioidomicose, que é uma micose humana sistêmica geograficamente confinada na América Latina. Vários antifúngicos podem ser utilizados para o tratamento dessa doença, tais como anfotericina B, sulfamídicos e azólicos (itraconazol) e de maneira geral seu uso é prolongado. As limitações frequentes dos antifúngicos e o aumento na incidência das infecções fúngicas sistêmicas têm ressaltado a necessidade da descoberta e do desenvolvimento de novos fármacos. O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar a atividade antifúngica de anfotericina B, itraconazol e galatos de alquila anti-complexo de Paracoccidioides por métodos fenotípicos e proteômicos. Para tanto foi padronizado o teste de sensibilidade para selecionar o galato de maior potência, utilizando o documento M27-A2 (2002), modificado pela adição de Alamar Blue. Adicionalmente, análises proteômicas foram realizadas antes e após tratamento com o antifúngico selecionado para verificar o perfil das possíveis proteínas-alvo. A atividade antifúngica foi estudada contra isolados de P. brasiliensis (S1, S2 e PS3) e P. lutzii, (Pb01-like), e depois o teste foi estendido para mais seis isolados. O valor da CIM do ácido gálico variou de 31,25 a 0,250 mg/L para todos os isolados. Os galatos mostraram valores de CIM entre 16 a 0,004 mg/L. O menor valor de CIM foi observado para seis galatos que possuem uma substituição por uma cadeia relativamente longa de carbonos. O perfil proteico dos isolados Pl01 e Pb18 foi estudado por eletroforese 2D após contato com anfotericina B , itraconazol e o galato de decila (todos a uma concentração de 0,125 mg/L. Mais de 130 spots para ambos os fungos foram observados e a maioria destas proteínas...
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and P. lutzii are dimorphic fungi, etiological agents of paracoccidioidomycosis, which is a systemic human mycosis geographically restricted to Latin America. Various antifungal agents may be used to treat this disease, such as amphotericin B, sulfamidic agents and itraconazole, and these drugs are used in long-term therapies. The limitations of antifungals and increased incidence of systemic fungal infections has underscored the need for discovery and development of new drugs. The objective of this study was to compare the antifungal activity of amphotericin B, itraconazole and alkyl gallates anti-Paracoccidioides complex by phenotypic and proteomic methods. Thus, the susceptibility test was applied to select the most potent gallate, using the document M27-A2 (2002), modified by the addition of Alamar Blue. Finally, proteomic analyses was developed before and after the treatment with the antifungal agent selected, to study the protein profile after this treatment. The antifungal activity was evaluated against isolates of P. brasiliensis (S1, S2 and PS3) and P. lutzii (PB01-like), and after, the test has been extended to six isolates. The MIC values of gallic acid varied from 31.25 to 0.250 mg/L for all isolates. The gallates showed MIC values ranging from 16 to 0,004 mg/L. The lowest MIC value was observed for six gallates bearing a substitution for a long side chain. The protein profile of isolates Pb18 and Pl01 was studied by 2D electrophoresis after contact with amphotericin B, itraconazole and decyl gallate, all in the concentration of (0.125 mg/L ). More than 130 spots for both species were observed, and the most of these proteins... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
