RESUMO

Abstract The gut is the main organ that mediates the contact between antigens with our organism, controlling the immune response against environmental factors, such as microbiota and food. Innate lymphoid cells participate in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) maturation during the prenatal and early postnatal periods. After birth, breast milk provides the essential elements for the continuity of development of this tissue, leading to structural changes and healthy microbiota installation. The microbiota participates in the organogenesis of the GALT, as in the formation of intestinal villi, stimulating the proliferation of stem cells and maintaining the integrity of epithelial barrier. Foods are also involved in maturation of the GALT, where the protein source depletion reduced the number of resident lymphocytes. This unique microenvironment present in the intestinal lamina propria (LP) and mesenteric lymph nodes (mLN) induce tolerance to innocuous antigens from the diet, known as Oral Tolerance. Antigens sampled by intestinal epithelium cells are transferred to specialized dendritic cells, residing in the LP, which migrate to the mesenteric lymph nodes where they participate in the induction of regulatory T cells (Treg). Understanding these phenomena may establish the intestinal mucosa as a tool in therapy of inflammatory bowel diseases and immunological disorders.

RESUMO

Abstract: introduction: regulatory T-cells are the main component of peripheral tolerance and their level is decreased in autoimmunity. In dental amalgam, a mixture of metals is used as a restorative material. During daily a ctivities, these metals are ingested and affect renal, neurosensory and immune systems. Studies have demonstrated an increased risk of autoimmune diseases in patients with dental amalgam fillings. It was hypothesized that the percentage of regulatory T-cells decreases in individuals with amalgam fillings. Therefore this study was designed to determine and compare the percentage of regulatory T-cells in individuals with and without amalgam fillings. Material and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. Subjects were divided into two groups with each group consisting of 40 individuals. Group I (study group) comprised individuals with amalgam fillings, and Group II (control group), individuals without amalgam fillings in their teeth. Blood samples of all the participants were collected and tagged with CD4 FITC, CD25 PE and CD127 PerCP-Cy monoclonal antibodies for the detection of regulatory T-cells, FACSCalibur was used for this purpose. Results: The percentage of regulatory T-cells in the control group was high (77.77 +/- 5.54 percent) compared to the study group (76.09 +/- 7.68 percent), however, on comparison, the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.25). Conclusion: Dental amalgam fillings did not show a declining effect on the percentage of regulatory T-cells.


Resumen: introducción: las células T reguladoras son el principal componente de la tolerancia periférica y su nivel se reduce en la autoinmunidad. En las obturaciones de amalgama, una mezcla de metales se utiliza como un material de restauración. Durante las actividades diarias, estos metales se ingieren y afectan el sistema renal, neurosensorial e inmunológico. Los estudios han demostrado un aumento del riesgo de enfermedades autoinmunes en pacientes con amalgamas dentales. Se planteó la hipótesis que el porcentaje de células T reguladoras disminuye en individuos con obturaciones de amalgama. Por tanto, este estudio fue diseñado para determinar y comparar el porcentaje de células T reguladoras en individuos con y sin obturaciones de amalgama. Material y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio de corte transversal. Los sujetos fueron divididos en dos grupos, cada uno con 40 individuos. El grupo I (de estudio) estuvo conformado por individuos con obturaciones de amalgama y el grupo II (de control) por individuos sin obturaciones de amalgma. Se colectaron muestras de sangre, las que fueron marcadas con anticuerpos monoclonales CD4 FITC, CD25 PE y CD127 PerCP-C para detectar las células T reguladoras, se utilizó FACSCalibur para este propósito. Resultados: El porcentaje de células T reguladoras en el grupo control fue alta (77,77 +/- 5,54 por ciento) en comparación con el grupo de estudio (76,09 +/- 7,68 por ciento), pero esta diferencia no fue estadísticamente significativa (p=0,25). Conclusión: Las obturaciones de amalgama no se asociaron con una disminución en el porcentaje de células T reguladoras.
