Resumo: |
Chemical eye burns are among the most frequently reported causes of ocular damage. These lesions may range from mild conjunctival or corneal unilateral epithelial damage to damage to the conjunctiva and cornea with risk of vision loss. Knowing the importance of new treatment proposals for this affection, the objective was to investigate the potential of membranes based on gelatin / usnic acid / liposomes to promote the healing of corneal burns using animal model. Analysis of the biological activity of gelatin membranes containing usnic acid/liposomes was performed by means of the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay where Gallus domesticus and Ross lineage eggs. For evaluation of ocular tolerance of the gelatin membrane, the Chicken Eggs Test - Coronary Membrane Test (HET-CAM). For the study in animals, 13 female New Zealand rabbits, aged 3 months and weighing 2 kg, were used. The chemical lesion on the corneas of the animals was performed by exposure to absolute ethanol for 30 seconds. The animals were divided into two study groups: group with lesion treated with gelatin membrane containing usnic acid / liposomes (n = 7) and group with lesion treated with gelatin membrane without acidic / liposomes (n = 6). To evaluate the healing, the injured area was demarcated with 1 (one) drop of eye drops fluorescein, later realized the registry. In order to identify dead cells in the cornea, 1 drop of Bengal Rose eye drops (1.0%) was instilled in the eye to be evaluated, after being topically anesthetized, after 1 minute the animals were exposed to white light and then performed the records. Hematoxylin-eosin staining for standard histopathological evaluation and Gomori trichrome stain for evaluation of collagen fibers were used for histological evaluation. It has been observed that the membrane of gelatin containing usnic acid/liposomes promotes neovascularization without promoting toxicity and is biocompatible with the ocular system by CAM and HET-CAM methods. In addition to not promoting ocular irritability, the membranes promoted improved healing of alkaline corneal chemical burn, as well as reduction in the number of dead cells and conjunctival irritability in the treated group when compared to the control group. Moreover, in animals treated with gelatin membrane containing single acid, there was absence of granulation tissue, in addition to organized collagen bundles, a different result from that found in animals treated with the membrane without single acid. Therefore, this work showed that the membrane of gelatin containing usnic acid promotes corneal healing caused by alkaline chemical burn efficiently in rabbits, accompanied by a reduction in the presence of dead cells in the injured cornea and improvement of conjunctival irritability. |
