Influence of cyclosporine A on mucociliary system after lung transplantation in rats

Abstract: Purpose:To investigate the function of the bronchial mucociliary system in transplanted rat lungs with and without the infl uence of immunosuppression. Methods: Thirty-six rats underwent single-lung transplantation and were divided into two groups, one of which received cyclosporine treatment, and the control group which did not. Cyclosporine was administered subcutaneously in doses of 10 mg/kg daily. The rats were sacrifi ced 2, 15 or 30 days after transplantation. In situ bronchial mucociliary transport (MCT… Show more

“…Despite MCTV impairment, this study showed the improvement of mucus viscoelastic properties in animals undergoing bronchial section and bronchial anastomosis treated with azathioprine. Three studies evaluated the effects of cyclosporine on mucociliary clearance (5,9,10). Using the bronchial section and bronchial anastomosis model, it was demonstrated that cyclosporine decreases MCTV as a result of impaired CBF and in vitro mucus transportability (MT), and it also decreases mucus secretion (5,10).…”

“…O batimento ciliar apresenta uma sequência coordenada, produzindo uma onda metacrômica, cujo mecanismo de controle permanece desconhecido. A frequência de batimento ciliar normal tem valores entre 10 e 20 Hz (Pazetti et al, 2007;Trindade et al, 2007).…”

“…Formado por duas camadas: a primeira, chamada de sol, é mais fluida, responsável pelo carregamento das partículas aderidas; enquanto que a camada mais externa é chamada de fase gel, que é mais viscosa. Quando ocorre, por quaisquer motivos, uma alteração na relação entre estas duas camadas, podemos ter prejuízo na função de deslocamento e recuperação de partículas (Pazetti et al, 2007).…”
