RESUMO

Asthma has been presenting higher prevalence rates worldwide. The objective of this work is to evaluate the presence of cellular elements and humoral indicative in blood and colostrums of healthy and asthmatic mothers and in cord umbilical blood of their newborn (NB). Lower production of IgG from asthmatic mothers was observed. Dendritic cells of asthmatic mothers have higher CD80 and CD86 expression. Asthmatic mothers have more central memory cells. TCD4+ lymphocyte of asthmatic mothers produce higher levels of IFN-g. CD3+ and CD4+ cells of asthmatic mothers produce higher quantity of IL-13. Healthy mothers produce higher quantity of IL-10. We conclude that asthmatic mothers have lower levels of IgG and IgM, and this seems to raise the IgE levels, asthmatic mothers have more central memory cells, CD4+ T lymphocyte and produce higher quantities of cytokines such as Il-13 and IFN-g. Dendritic cells of asthmatic mothers have higher expression of costimulatory molecules, as well as their NBs have higher expression CD80. Cells of asthmatic mothers produce lower levels of IL-10, the colostrums of atopic mothers does not have differences in the parameters here studied. The maternal breastfeeding must be indicated for asthmatic mothers and their of spring.
