Autor(es): Freire, Elionai Gomes Abstract: The nephrectomy 5/6 is a surgical procedure most commonly used in physiology laboratories to reproduce chronic renal failure due to its reproducibility and practicality. Patients with IR or nephrectomized present hemodynamic disorders such as fluid overload and accumulation of azotônicas substances in plasma, which can have serious complications in various organs. The aim of this research was to evaluate the changes that nephrectomy 5/6 can cause colonic permeability of rats to water and electrolytes (Na+,K+,Cl-) after 3,7 and 14 days of renal failure The project was approved by CEUA-UFC protocol with n° 11/15. 92 animals were used (male rats Wistar, weighing 280- 300 g) divided into three groups 3 days post-nephrectomy 5/6 7-days nephrectomy 5/6 and 14 days after nephrectomy 5 / 6- each group being formed by a SHAM and an experimental. For studies of colonic permeability of water and electrolytes, the animals were anesthetized with urethane, and then subjected to colonic infusion Tyroad + phenol red for 60 min. For all experiments, we monitor hemodynamic parameters (systolic-PAS blood pressure, central venous pressure, PVC, often heart-FC and blood volume- VS) and also biochemical plasma concentrations of urea and creatinine. Our biochemical results of bun and serum creatinine in groups 7 and 14 days confirmed the renal failure after nephrectomy 5/6 (114,8±1,8dl/ml; 165,6±7,2dl/ml) e (0,95±0,02dl/ml; 1,3± 0,07dl/ml) respectively. Groups 7 and 14 days post-nephrectomy 5/6 also showed significant blood volume changes (11,12±0,37 ml) e (15,83±0,82ml) The group 3 days did not present biochemical or significant hemodynamic results and insignificant colonic secretion of water and electrolytes (Na+,K+,Cl-) Correlation by linear regression curves between the colonic secretion of water and electrolytes in the blood volume in the group 7days performed quite significant in this work. We conclude that the 5/6 nephrectomy proved effective in chronic renal failure model, as promoted successive rise in urea levels and serum creatinine. The nephrectomy 5/6 promoted colonic secretion into water and electrolytes becoming evident in rats in groups 7 and 14 days post-nephrectomy. The close relationship of blood volume changes in group 7 days with the secretion of water and electrolytes (Na+, k+, Cl-) It makes us deduct be plasma hyperglycemia induced by 5/6 nephrectomy the decisive for absorption and secretion of these ions or in the colon.

It is vast use of this lectin in biotechnological assays due their biological properties, and it’s used commonly linked to FITC, a fluorophore widely used in various fields of biotechnology to attach to proteins a fluorescent marker through amine grouping. However, the fluorophore influence in proteins activity must be further highlighted. This research aimed obtain informations about native ConBr secondary structure and FITC-conjugated changes and start a study of this lectin conjugated quantum dots also. Samples of native ConBr, ConBr-FITC conjugated (FITC-ConBr (2%)), ConBr mixed with the FITC proportion of 2% by mass (ConBr/FITC (2%)), ConBr mixed with FITC at 20 mass% (ConBr/FITC (20%)) and processed but not conjugated with FITC ConBr (ConBr-) were analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), mode ATR (Attenuated Total Refectance). The native ConBr, ConBr-FITC (2%), ConBr/FITC (2%), ConBr-, and conjugated quantum dots ConBr (QD ConBr-Zn / Cd) specific haemagglutinating activity were performed. The specific haemagglutinating activity in the extracts was determined using the rabbit erythrocytes suspensions at 3% in microtiter plates. The specific activity data were tested using the Mann-Whitney test. When the native ConBr and FITC-ConBr (2%) spectra were compared, it was found the peak of the native lectin relating to β- sheet structures not suffered modification when the protein was conjugated with FITC, but there was a intensity reduction in the spectrum region relating to α-helix structures, which allows a reduction in the amount these structures. There was an intensity increase of irregular structures also. Native ConBr, ConBr- e ConBr/FITC (2%) spectra suggested no changes in secondary structure. There was a ConBr-FITC (2%) hemagglutinating activity decrease and that result showed statistically significant difference to native ConBr. Native ConBr and ConBr- do not have significantly differences. The ConBr/FITC (2%) activity didn’t showed statistical differences regarding native ConBr. These results contribute and reinforce the proposition that is the FITC binding to protein promotes the structural change in the α-helix region. The ConBr-QD Zn/Cd specific activity decreased compared with the activity of native ConBr, demonstrating statistically significant differences between these samples. Statistical analyzes using the data obtained in the specific activity test and infrared spectra analysis suggest lectin ConBr FITC-conjugated secondary structure changes. However, it’s still necessary elucidate the nature of this change, and whether this is really due to the protein-fluorophore binding. Tipo: Dissertação 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z
