Expressão de antígenos MHC classe I e de células CD4 e CD8 na polimiosite e dermatomiosite

Abstract: MCH-I antigens expression and CD4 positivity might add to strong diagnostic suspicion of PM/DM. No cellular infiltration was observed in 14.3% of such cases.

“…In physiological conditions, the levels of MHC molecules in muscle cells are not detectable. However, both MHC-I and II have been reported to be expressed in myofibers upon chronic inflammation (such as in polymyositis) (Graca and Kouyoumdjian, 2015). In vitro , human myoblasts and myotubes can express MHC classic molecules (HLA-DR), either constitutively or after coculture with IFN-γ.…”

“…MHC I presents peptides on the cell surface for CD8 T-cell recognition. Because healthy and unperturbed skeletal muscle normally expresses low levels of MHC I ( Wiendl et al, 2005 ; Graca and Kouyoumdjian, 2015 ), these data suggest that upon contraction-induced injury, skeletal muscle may up regulate MHC I and communicate with the CD8 T-cells. The function of these T-cells and whether they were detrimental, beneficial or passive observers to the muscle damage/repair process following contraction-induced damage is not known.…”

“…Dystrophic features of dysphyrlin-deficient muscle were greatly reduced with T-cell depletion ( Farini et al, 2012 ). T-cells are implicated in muscle cytotoxicity in idiopathic inflammatory myopathy conditions ( Johnson et al, 1972 ; De Paepe et al, 2005 ; Choi et al, 2009 ; Graca and Kouyoumdjian, 2015 ; Huang et al, 2015 ; Limongi, 2015 ). Recently, T-cells were found to accumulate in the muscle of high fat-fed mice, and were instrumental in the development of insulin insensitivity ( Khan et al, 2014 , 2015 ).…”
