Resumen:
Background: Central nervous system (CNS) invasion by bacteria of the genus Brucella results in an inflammatory
disorder called neurobrucellosis. We have recently demonstrated that B. abortus infects microglia and astrocytes,
eliciting the production of a variety of pro-inflammatory cytokines which contribute to CNS damage. Matrix
metalloproteinases (MMP) have been implicated in inflammatory tissue destruction in a range of pathological
situations in the CNS. Increased MMP secretion is induced by pro-inflammatory cytokines in a variety of CNS
diseases characterized by tissue-destructive pathology.

these pathways among the kinase pathways that the bacteria may address as they invade astrocytes. Inhibition of
p38 or Erk1/2 significantly diminished MMP-9 secretion, and totally abrogated production of this MMP when both
MAPK pathways were inhibited simultaneously. A concomitant abrogation of B. abortus- and L-Omp19-induced
TNF-á production was observed when p38 and Erk1/2 pathways were inhibited, indicating that TNF-á could be
implicated in MMP-9 secretion. MMP-9 secretion induced by B. abortus or L-Omp19 was completely abrogated

Conclusions: Our results indicate that the inflammatory response elicited by B. abortus in astrocytes would lead to
the production of MMP-9 and that MAPK may play a role in this phenomenon. MAPK inhibition may thus be
considered as a strategy to control inflammation and CNS damage in neurobrucellosis.
