Resumen

El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el efecto del trans-anetol en combinación con metotrexato, en comparación con la monoterapia con trans-anetol o metotrexato, sobre los parámetros inflamatorios y el estrés oxidativo de ratas artríticas. Se utilizó el modelo experimental de artritis inducida por adyuvante completo de Freund (AIA) en ratas. El tratamiento con trans-anetol y metotrexato, en combinación o monoterapia, se inició el día de la inducción de AIA y se continuó durante 21 días. La asociación de anetol (62,5 mg/Kg) a la terapia con metotrexato (6 mg/Kg) logró reducir el estrés oxidativo y eventos inflamatorios inducido por la artritis, como lo demuestran los siguientes indicadores: 1) disminución en el edema de las patas traseras, en la puntuación de lesiones secundarias, en el reclutamiento de leucocitos a la cavidad articular y en la actividad mieloperoxidasa plasmática; 2) aumento del contenido plasmático de tioles reducidos y capacidad antioxidante total; 3) disminución de la carbonilación de proteínas en plasma, hígado y riñones; 4) disminución de la peroxidación de lípidos en el hígado; 5) reducción del contenido hepático de ROS; 6) mejora de la actividad de las enzimas antioxidantes y la relación GSH/GSSG. En general, la combinación anetol + metotrexato presentó un efecto sustancialmente mayor que la monoterapia con anetol o metotrexato (a las mismas dosis). Los datos obtenidos en este trabajo nos permiten concluir que el uso de trans-anetol en combinación con metotrexato suprimió la progresión artrítica en ratas, con la principal ventaja de la reducción de la dosis de metotrexato, atenuando los efectos adversos causados por la terapia a altas dosis.
