RESUMO

This study has the objective to evaluate the effect of the bilateral adrenalectomy in the neurodegenerative process and cicatrization on the nigroestriatal pathway injury through 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) in rat, and in this way contribute for the interpretation of the adreno esteroides hormones effects in the neurodegenerative and neurotrophics process in the central nervous system.injury Adult rats wistar were submitted in a surgery to take the bilateral adrenal gland or a simulate surgery of the same. After 2 days the animals was involved into a stereotaxic surgery to nigroestriatal dopaminergic lesion with a unilateral injection of the 6-OHDA in the nigra. The animals received daily corticosterone hormonal (10mg/kg) or vehicle solution. After a period of 72 hours, 1 week and 3 weeks, the animals were decapitated, and the regions of the ventral midbrain and striatum it was bilaterally dissected. The tissue was processed by Western blot method and analyzed for the following markers: tyrosine hydroxylase (TH - enzyme that join of the dopamine conversion pathway), glial fibrilar acid protein (GFAP protein of the intermediary filament of the astrocyte citoesqueleto, the moleculars extracellular matrix phosphacan, neurocan, chondroitin sulfate and NG2, the Laminin protein and finally, the neurotrophic factor (FGF-2) in the region of ventral midbrain, where watched trophic actions in the dopaminergic neurons that could have effects in the inflammatory processes by your gliogenic and angiogenic actions. In this way, the dopaminergic neurodegeneration was evaluated by the TH levels, the astrocytary activation by the GFAP levels, the cicatrization processes by the molecules regulation of the extracellular matrix and the trophics FGF-2 answers. By the results it is possible that adrenal glucocorticoid hormones modulate the elements involved in neurodegeneration, repair and cicatrization of the dopaminergic system.
