Resumo

O 4-nitro-2-fenoximetanosulfonanilide (nimesulide), antiinflamatório não esteróide, vem sendo utilizado no tratamento de quadros inflamatórios devido à sua atividade farmacológica nestes mecanismos de resposta as injúrias flogísticas. O objetivo do presente trabalho é estudar a ação deste fármaco sobre duas importantes funções neutrofílicas: quimiotaxia e produção de ânion superóxido após pré incubação com doses crescentes da droga (0,1; 0,3 e 0,5mM). Os resultados obtidos demonstram que a pré-incubação de PMNs coletados do sangue periférico de indivíduos normais com o 4-nitro-2-fenoximetanosulfonanilide reduz significativamente a produção de superóxido por estimulação de PMN com acetato de forbol miristato (PMA 50ng/ml). formil metionil leucil fenilalanina (FMLP 10-'M e Zimozan opsonizado (1mg/ml). Adicionalmente o fármaco se mostrou igualmente efetivo em reduzir a habilidade quimiotáxica de PMNs, frente ao fator C5a (2% de soro ativado por zimozan). FMLP (10-9M) e leucotrieno B4 (3x10-'M). Os resultados obtidos sugerem que além da sua atividade a nível do metabolismo do ácido araquidônico, o 4-nitro-2-fenoximetanosulfonanilide possa interferir diretamente sobre a função neutrofílica, o que provavelmente contribui para sua ação antiinflamatória.
