Resumo: The purpose of this work was to evaluate the immune response in goats with different degrees of gastrintestinal nematode infection. Ninety adult animals naturally infected were grouped according to the total egg count per feces gram (EPG): group I from zero to 500 EPG, group II from 501 to 2000 and group III above 2000. The parameters studied were serum total protein (STP), evaluated by biuret method; globulin (Glob), calculated by the difference between STP and serum albumin; gammaglobulin (Gglob), estimated throughout electrophoresis; immunoglobulin (Ig), estimated by turbidometry test with ZnSO4 and absolute lymphocyte count (Lymp / ml). It was found statistically decrease in three parameters (STP, Ig and Lymp / ml) for group III. For Glob and Gglob, the decrease found was not statistically significant. These results show a depressor effect of nematode infection on humoral immune system. The intense dispersion of Glob and Gglob data can explain the not significant decrease found in those parameters. It was concluded that goats with intense nematode infection (above 2000 EPG) can show immunedepression, with impairment of lymphocyte count and serum antibody level.

Foram utilizados 90 animais adultos, naturalmente infectados, divididos em três grupos de 30 animais cada e separados segundo a contagem de ovos por grama de fezes (OPG): grupo I de zero a 500 OPG; grupo II de 501 a 2.000 OPG e o grupo III maior que 2.000 OPG. As variáveis estudadas foram: a dosagem de proteínas séricas totais (PST), avaliada pelo método do biureto; globulinas (Glob), calculada pela diferença entre a proteína total e a albumina sérica; gamaglobulinas (Gglob), medidas pela eletroforese; imunoglobulinas (Ig), dosadas pelo teste da turbidimetria com ZnSO4 e a contagem absoluta de linfócitos (Linfo/mL). Observou-se que em três destes parâmetros (PST, Ig e Linfo/mL) houve queda estatisticamente significativa para o grupo mais infectado. Para a Glob e Gglob a queda não foi significativa. A diminuição destes parâmetros denota um efeito depressor da helmintose sobre o sistema imune humoral. O fato da dosagem de Glob e Gglob não ser estatisticamente menor pode ser explicado pela ocorrência de uma maior dispersão destes resultados. Conclui-se, assim, que caprinos acometidos de intensa helmintose gastrintestinal (acima de 2000 OPG) mostraram-se imunodeprimidos, com linfopenia e diminuição dos níveis séricos de anticorpos.UEL2002-03-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/semagrarias/article/view/206110.5433/1679-0359.2002v23n1p15Semina: Ciências Agrárias; Vol. 23 No. 1 (2002); 15-19Semina: Ciências Agrárias; v. 23 n. 1 (2002); 15-191679-03591676-546Xreponame:Semina.
